The Linux Desktop - Going Ubuntu
Ubuntu is a free and open-source Linux operating system that provides software for music, internet surfing, documents and more without viruses. It includes applications like Rhythmbox for music playback, Firefox for web browsing, Pidgin and Kopete for messaging, and OpenOffice for word processing, spreadsheets, presentations and databases in an open standard format. Ubuntu offers these capabilities to users while respecting their freedom and sharing through its community-driven development.
A brief look at Linux & Ubuntu
Linux is an open source alternative operating system to Windows and Mac OS X. It has minimal system requirements and runs on almost any hardware. Some key advantages of Linux include being free, more secure due to lack of need for antivirus software, and more customizable. Popular Linux distributions for desktop use include Ubuntu, Fedora, Mint, and openSUSE. Ubuntu is one of the most popular and offers both desktop and server editions. While Linux has fewer proprietary application options and potential driver issues, it provides many free and open source alternatives to common Windows applications.
Controlling USB Flash Drive Controllers: Expose of Hidden Features
Video here, thanks to archive.org:
https://archive.org/details/ShmooCon2014_Controlling_USB_Flash_Drive_Controllers
With stories of "BadBIOS" infecting PCs simply by connecting a malicious USB flash drive to a PC, it's time we learned about flash drives and their controllers. Consumer USB flash drives are cheap, growing in capacity and shrinking in physical size. There are only around 15 prominent controller chip manufacturers whom you have never heard of, but OEM for all the popular and respected "name brands" on the market. These flash controllers have capabilities that aren't mentioned on product packaging, and can be enabled with programming you will learn during this presentation. These flash controllers can be *reprogrammed entirely* via software to do whatever you want.
Turn an old flash drive into an emulated CDROM or a CDROM + flash drive. Update the controller's firmware, disassemble it, etc. This talk will touch on the various controller manufacturers, features, and show you how to leverage them for yourself. Why spend $100 on an old SanDisk[tm] U3 Cruiser when you can spend $4 for the same features?

The document recommends using codec packs, which bundle many common codecs together for easy installation on a computer.
GNOME 3.4 accessible: Status, news, future (FOSDEM 2012)
By Alejandro Piñeiro Iglesias.
In GNOME, accessibility is a core value that touches all aspects of the system. [1]
From the infrastructure, to the graphical toolkit, to the applications, to the assistive technologies, accessibility has been a central consideration from the very early days.
On April 2011 GNOME 3.0 was released, and although GNOME and the accessibility made a huge effort, the accessibility support was not ideal. But not are bad news. Finally the accessibility technologies are starting to be used from the two main free desktops. AT-SPI is starting to be used on KDE distros, and Orca is starting to be functional with Qt apps. Since GNOME 3.0 a big effort was done in order to improve the situation. At the moment of this proposal writing an ATK/AT-SPI2 hackfest is being organized, in order to fix the issues from the framework itself.
The purpose of this presentation is explaining:
* Introduce accessibility on GNOME.
* Briefly explain the status towards GNOME 3.4
* Summarize the output of the ATK/AT-SPI2 hackfest
* Compare GNOME 3.0 vs GNOME 3.4
* KDE status and cooperation
* Future

Effective time management involves planning ahead, prioritizing tasks, and avoiding procrastination. The key is to establish routines for sleeping, eating, studying, and socializing to maintain balance and avoid burnout during the semester.
IoT in Smart Cities
The document discusses the concepts of systems and smart cities, and the role of IoT within smart city design. It defines a system as interacting components forming an integrated whole. Smart cities aim to be livable, efficient, sustainable, and safe using technical, human, and institutional frameworks. IoT can help smart cities by collecting data from sensors to monitor systems, optimize processes, and enable autonomous control. The document also notes some limits to IoT and smart city development in Tunisia, such as infrastructure and data limitations, but outlines initiatives to help overcome these, including OpenData and concept projects to start applying IoT principles.
Flask
Flask is a microframework for Python that allows for easy development of web applications. It began as an April Fool's joke but became popular enough to be developed into a full framework. The document discusses installing Flask and related packages like Flask-SQLAlchemy and Flask-Mail. It covers setting up a virtual environment for projects, installing dependencies, and includes code examples for basic Flask app configuration, SQLAlchemy integration, and using Flask-Mail to send emails. The goal is to build a simple TODO list web application to demonstrate Flask implementation.
H2O
The document discusses building smarter applications using model-based approaches rather than rule-based or rigid hard-coded architectures. It describes using H2O to combine applications with machine learning models to enable the applications to evolve and learn from data. The document provides an example of using H2O and data on US club loans from 2007-2015 to build an application that can predict whether a customer would be eligible for a loan and the interest rate.
Snort
This document provides an overview and implementation guide for Snort, an open source intrusion detection and prevention system (IDPS). It discusses what Snort is, how it works, and how to install and configure it on an Ubuntu server. The key points covered include:
- Snort can operate as a network intrusion detection system (NIDS), packet logger, or intrusion prevention system (IPS) through inline mode.
- Configuring an Ubuntu server, installing prerequisites like libpcap and PCRE libraries, and downloading/compiling the latest version of Snort from source.
- Creating directories, configuration files, rules files and setting permissions for Snort to run properly.
- Additional tools
Metal as a Server
The document introduces Metal as a Service (MaaS), an open source tool for provisioning physical servers. It discusses setting up MaaS using virtual machines, including configuring the region and cluster controllers, creating an admin user, adding nodes, and deploying the first node. MaaS provides RESTful APIs and allows automated provisioning of physical and virtual resources for use in cloud environments. The document demonstrates how MaaS works and its potential for managing physical infrastructure beyond just metal servers.
Web Development best practices
These slides talk about 5 rules that I believe are essential for a productive and outstanding web development project.
Web essentials
The document provides an introduction to web fundamentals including different types of websites, how the web works, building a basic website structure, and styling pages. It discusses static vs dynamic websites, how requests and responses work on the internet, the basic structure of an HTML page including header, main content, and footer sections. It also covers adding structure in the body using common tags, and styling pages using internal and external CSS including defining colors, fonts, and responsiveness. The document concludes with suggestions for creating a first web project by understanding file organization, asking questions, choosing a project, and working together.
