    Career in Best Industries with Software Skills

    At the time of my M.Tech (Post graduation) completion, I have a big confusion how to start my career professional life. However, we have nil education on software and hardware technologies in our curriculum at colleges. Even though, after getting many suggestions from my seniors and relatives who are experienced in the software industry, I am unable to conclude about what to choose.

    ssh tunnels

    I have been trying to get my head around ssh tunnels lately as I need to be able to access a development web server on our private network that doesn't have an IP accessible from the internet.
    It's taken me a while to understand what is going on; it can be pretty confusing.

    I'd recommend the following for a good explanation of what ports are used, e.g. when your browser requests a page:

    Linux commands

    Slashdot had a great comment thread on helpful/stupid linux commands the other day - "cd" is one of the most basic commands in linux and one of the first you learn, but I never knew that "cd -" would change your directory back to the last one you were on.

    The best comment though was the Russian Roulette method to delete something (the original had rm -rf / of course):

    [ $[ $RANDOM % 6 ] == 0 ] && rm some-file-to-delete || echo "You live"

    Bash variable scope, pipe and cat

    Here is a nice little bit of bash snagging for you. You need to grab lines from a file, process each in turn, and then at the very end report whether or not there was a problem for any of them. Simple ? Not quite.

    The following scripts are mangled to show how this works, so don't expect them to operate as-is.


    #!/bin/bash

    PROBLEM=0

    cat $CONF | grep backup | grep @ |
    while IFS=$TAB read var1 var2 var3 var4
    do
    PROBLEM=1
    echo PROBLEM:$PROBLEM
    done
    echo PROBLEM: $PROBLEM
