Really don't care much about my cv. This program is a great way to learn about the STIX protocol so no idea what you mean about "no actionable skills". STIX is an interesting information sharing method, the program is well designed to educate the user on it and seeing the format it imports and exports data will teach me a buttload.

More to the point, maybe could you be less cynical and share some advice. I'm not going to flex my qualifications cos they're mediocre but I've got smart people around me who just don't know this particular program and I'm interested to hear from those who do.

Do you run this program at work or at home? Have you learned anything interesting from using it? Are there avoidable mistakes I could not repeat from hosting it? Answers to those questions would be very useful.

I dont see myself doing too much configuration with connectors to begin with which brings some of the difficulty down. I was asking to see if others run anything similar in their home configuration. I've met people who run MISP from home before so it sounded feasible to me.

I was also looking for the community aspect of this, I already knew they had a docker-compose config. I wanted to know who had attempted this before and what they'd learned, that sort of thing.

In the update settings she can reset her apt sources back to "default". It's not too hard and there's a gui throughout the process (from memory).

The package conflicts is an interesting one, if you have the time to post one of these on lemmy I'm sure someone will suggest a fix. It's probably a apt install --fix-broken or something simple (hopefully) but I'm sure we could work it out.

Totally agree that these are annoying issues though. See if you can use Nala, it's a TUI front end for Apt and it's got some nice user changes like if you run upgrade it updates and upgrades. It also has a fetch feature which finds nearby sources, so you're always downloading from the closest/fastest source.

I recommend this to everyone I meet in tech, it's really good to learn linux and file system skills

This is satire... right?

[–] joshcodes@programming.dev 2 points 8 months ago

Fair enough. I used to use Manjaro and it broke, cannot remember why. I moved to ubuntu sometime later and I've never left. Some would say that makes me a bad linux user, I would say I use an operating system that gets out of my way and let's me use it. Use whatever tool gets the job done fastest!

Personally, no, i havent used manjaro in years. However, it's frequently spoken about problem in the community so im sure someone else can help you. Or you could look up people talking about it.

Not the above poster but Manjaro routinely pushes out broken packages, has had a number of issues with security (not renewing their tls certificates for their website) and is all around not stable. Arch is a predictable unstable, manjaro is an unpredictable unstable attempt at stable.

I mean how the community refers to him. I've never read a thread where someone called Linus a BDFL, I have with python. If they do, they do. Just haven't seen it myself.

[–] joshcodes@programming.dev 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

So I did miss that Linus is in the article, but the reference to him says he was awarded the title, which makes it sound like an honour rather than a hierarchical system. I don't believe that he's ever been anything other than the projects owner/founder but I'm happy to learn if I'm wrong.

Youre thinking of python I reckon -link to wikipedia

I work in cyber security. Loads of businesses will do all the cybersecurity stuff using a combination of tools on Azure and security OS's like Kali and Parrot.
