pretty cool. congratulations!

what the heck is systems programming
is it like devops?

>>2635
no idea

>>2635
Working directly with the system API, hacking with it or with the running context (ways of influencing the runtime, this is a broad generalization but what I do covers all that), tasks relating to products of said category (debugging, be it live or customer crash dumps, reverse engineering, etc.)

Some examples include work relating to anti-viruses, sandboxing/userspace emulators, etc

>>2697
>anti-virus
painful. These programs should not exist. Just lock dumb people out of networked computers and/or prevent them from installing or running programs that aren't standard.

>>2697
oh so like you have to deal with the Windows API and stuff like that?
cool
how did you learn? i've always wanted to look into it but never found any books or anything.

>>2702
You don't know what you're talking about, sorry. It's a common belief but it comes from short sightedness. You may fall for it yourself if you don't continuously introspect your system's activity. Nothing stops anything connected to the internet from doing bad stuff if they do the least amount of trying. The solution is to automate the process of said introspection. It's also especially helpful for malware analysts, evidently.

>>2703
Winternals is generally the go-to, but I think Windows via C/C++ fifth edition is a great introduction.

>>2727
Clarifying since I have the communication ability of a toddler, 'you may fall for *it*' refers to viruses, 'they' refers to the jooz, AKA potential attackers. It's evidently less likely that you'll ever be targeted personally, but it's more likely that you will be generalized as part of a category of computer users and be targetted that way. I saw such things flying many times, still do.

Also, I didn't respond on how I actually learned, that is because I don't want to disclose identifying details, but I recommend doing hands on stuff and trying your own ideas, reading the SDM, etc, this isn't novels/mere literature.

>>2727
>Winternals
this one?

>>2735
Look online for the series 'Windows Internals'.

>>2727
>>2728
in all my 15 years of using computers, I never once had a single virus, and I never heard of anyone who wasn't totally retarded who who got one.

>>2754
Well, I got one but I was like 7 when that happened.

>>2754
>>2761
The only time I got a virus was when I installed "free cursors and smilies" or something from a banner ad. It was a long time ago.

>>2796
similar to me, but it was on a free movies webisite

Im an info science/systems major how do I find a good job when I graduate employedteen

>>2802
you find a job after you graduate by getting a job before you graduate and keeping that job. It's literally over otherwise. Ramp up that portfolio or even your degree will leave you suicidal.

Want to know how you will be virus-free? Write your own OS. Like Terry did. Better yet, buy a $500 FPGA board with some good amounts of RAM and all the required peripheral connectors and then build your own CPU ISA in that, then write your OS for that CPU. Nothing can stop you then. Viruses literally only exist for children and the elderly/mentally disabled, and even then, they are only possible on widespread systems.

>>2811 (Me)
this would drive innovation and robustness of the computing ecosystem through diversity of hardware. Also, you no longer need to buy FSF "RYF"/open hardware which is probably a scam anyway. FPGA-emulated CPUs are the only real "free" hardware that you can have, and modern FPGAs are already at acceptable clock rates to facilitate some reasonable performance. Only through adaptable hardware can you get rid of all that gay legacy crap from the x86 line, and only through writing your own OSes can you get rid of all the POSIX crap that's infesting user software nowadays.

If only this was already an era of computing that has shown to be unsuccesful (modern computing power wouldn't help it, only if you would ask that everyone makes their OS quickly sandboxable or offers a system design for people to write userspace emulators before running everything... And also offer designs on their format and platform and everything... No this simply won't work and it drives you back to step 1 but even worse). I have no idea why I'm taking you seriously but I'm assuming good faith, yes it's unlikely you will get a virus without being adjacent to communities that are vulnerable to being a target in the first place, but if your work is quite serious, people will want to steal from you or exploit you. If you work in a serious environment, then you're again a target, this includes people who do grunt work that help keep such envjronments (such as businesses or govt institutions) afloat. You don't need to be dismissive if this simply doesn't affect you.

>>2818
Note: I fully ignored dealing with hardware and it's software implications inherently too. What we have now is an imperfect but logical conclusion that works.

>>2818
>common userspace applications
why would you need that? First off, you have language standard libraries. As long as your environment provides an implementation for a language's standard library, you can do almost everything. Furthermore, there are de facto network standards that cannot be changed since the whole infrastructure of the internet would need to support new protocols. So you already have stuff like TCP, UDP, IP, etc. that will allow intercommunication.
>people want to steal from you
I don't care. I post my code publicly anyway.
>businesses
nowadays are a scam. The economy is fake. This gay trickle-down, heavily regulated economy has completely destroyed any honest businesses years ago already.
>govt institutions
we are literally living in giant mafia operations posing as governments and states.
>You don't need to be dismissive if this simply doesn't affect you.
That's an important misconception. I care for perfection, especially in computing. The worst thing about modern computing is that it is intellectually dead, and all innovation is made top-down by "trend-setting" globohomo corporations. This happens on large and small scales. Just because I don't require an anti-virus system, doesn't mean that the very concept of such a thing isn't so destructive to the computing sector that its mere existence is already intolerable and should be eradicated. Be careful of the leaven of the Pharisees. Ignoring peripheral problems is a slippery slope that leads to degeneracy and in the end, tens of millions of imported niggers.
Basically, an anti-virus system is there to protect gigantic monolithic organisational structures that have something to hide and cannot trust their members, so everything needs to be sandboxed. This is a jewish way of looking at the world. In purely Aryan societies, we have a high-trust, locally constrained society and everyone is trusted and known personally by everyone else. Whoever betrays, is then basically executed. But in a jewish world, you have "friends" and "colleagues" from China and Israel and some other sandnigger shithole, and they have no morals because they are demons, and they do not have Aryan virtues. They do emulate them as much as required so they don't get killed on sight. But they do it out of compulsion.

>>2818
>>2825 (cont.)
>sandboxable emulators (software compatibility)
All you need is a standard library binding translating between two system designs. Why does everyone need to have access to and compatibility with everyone else's brainfarts? That's again a jewish concept. Those are literally the french revolution masonic ideals, which brought us all this decay.
>virus from adjacent communities
First of all, virus is a misnomer because there are no viruses (such as the supposed Covid19), it's all made up and discredited for half a century now. But even then, virus attack vectors are only possible because the legacy software we are working with nowadays has been built for closed settings without access to a world-wide web. It was built for a high trust setting. Software written for high trust settings shouldn't be facing the WWW where you have kikes and other demons around. It's like keeping the city gates open at night, without a guard. Or better yet, not walling your city off despite having enemies on the horizon.
You need a change of perspective, you're stuck in the current state of things and cannot see the ideal world. By being reactive, you cannot create perfection. You'll just put another band-aid on a disfigured (((Frankenstein))) abomination.
Anyway, my point is that hardware, software, and systems should be designed for personal use (hence, they called it PC), and the whole thing of "everything that's connected to the same router has special previleges to access my machine" is retarded anyway. Before WiFi that made sense, but now, it's just bullshit. And even then, you had to guard your Ethernet outlets properly. Instead, there should be rights management mechanisms whitelisting other machines you trust. And people should not be downloading executables, and the whole idea of "needing" to run other people's software, even if you have no social relation with the author, is retarded, too. Only run software written by people you know or by institutions you can trust.
Computing has been subverted to become this "I want to consume everything all the time and everything needs to run on every machine, no matter how gay it is, or who wrote it". Oh, you want to write code? Better download a Microsoft code editor, right? Eventhough they have a reputation for fucking you over. People fell for the "convenience" meme and are now helpless slaves to corporations, instead of the companies being servants to their customers. And an anti-virus system isn't the way to fix that. We need to man up and eliminate the demons and all evil.

you are being antisemitic, which is illegal in many countries and could even get you arrested.

>We, the Saudi Family, are cousins of the Jews: we entirely disagree with any Arab or Muslim Authority which shows any antagonism to Jews; but we must live together with them in peace. Our country (Arabia) is the fountain head from where the first Jew sprang, and his descendants spread out all over the world.

don't reply to people replying to me as if you were me. I'm not a shitskin, you nigger.

yes.
