The Feynman Lectures on Physics (263) Hacking into the Indian Education System - On the Stepping Stone - Quora In the last several weeks, in a time wedged awkwardly between the end of my college finals and my summer internship, I've been exposed to some information that left me quite flabbergasted. It started about a month ago. It was a very important day in the lives of two of my juniors and close friends, Sumit Shyamsukha and Ronak Shah. It was the day their board examination marks, the ICSE and the ISC respectively, were to be released. To put this in context to our non-Indian readers, the ICSE is a 10th grade national examination and the ISC is its 12th grade counterpart. Wrought with the monumental anxiety that usually surrounds such a crucial result, Sumit had asked me whether I might be able to break into their system before D-day and quell his curiosity. Technicality Alert. [Technical] Handed just a URL and a task, I was unsure of how to proceed past a mostly blank screen with two text-boxes in the center. I added the inline comments to explain the code. This was all pretty simple.

Goliath David and Goliath, a colour lithograph by Osmar Schindler (c. 1888) The original purpose of the story was to show David's identity as the true king of Israel.[1] Post-Classical Jewish traditions stressed Goliath's status as the representative of paganism, in contrast to David, the champion of the God of Israel. Christian tradition gave him a distinctively Christian perspective, seeing in David's battle with Goliath the victory of God's King over the enemies of God's helpless people as a prefiguring of Jesus' victory over sin on the Cross and the Church's victory over Satan.[2] Biblical account[edit] David hoists the severed head of Goliath as illustrated by Gustave Doré (1866). David and Goliath confront each other, Goliath with his armor and shield, David with his staff and sling. David hurls a stone from his sling with all his might and hits Goliath in the center of his forehead, Goliath falls on his face to the ground, and David cuts off his head.

Hero of Alexandria Hero of Alexandria (Greek: Ἥρων ὁ Ἀλεξανδρεύς, Heron ho Alexandreus; also known as Heron of Alexandria c. 10 – c. 70 AD) was a Greek mathematician and engineer who was active in his native city of Alexandria, Roman Egypt. He is considered the greatest experimenter of antiquity[1] and his work is representative of the Hellenistic scientific tradition.[2] Hero published a well recognized description of a steam-powered device called an aeolipile (sometimes called a "Hero engine"). Among his most famous inventions was a windwheel, constituting the earliest instance of wind harnessing on land.[3][4] He is said to have been a follower of the Atomists. Some of his ideas were derived from the works of Ctesibius. Much of Hero's original writings and designs have been lost, but some of his works were preserved in Arabic manuscripts.

Unix / Linux Fork Bomb Explained (Discalimer: if you run this command and something goes wrong with your computer's hardware, software or if you lose your work or data, please do not hold me responsible. You have been warned) In case you are a Windows user, we have an article about: Windows Fork Bombs! What is a Fork Bomb Unlike what its pronunciation might suggest, a fork bomb does not throw dining forks at you when it explodes. A fork bomb is something which calls the fork function indefinitely and rapidly, thus exhausting all system resources. How does a fork bomb work? In this case ‘:’ is the name of the bash function (and is interpreted by the shell itself). When a user runs the fork bomb, it defines a function named ‘:’. The definition of the function contains the root of bomb. To launch the bomb, all you need to do is to type (or copy-paste) those seemingly harmless letters in your Linux terminal and hit enter. How to protect against fork bombs
