How to increase your internet privacy with DNS Crypt

noreply@blogger.com (agentc) — Sat, 10 May 2014 21:18:00 +0000

"DNS Leaking" happens when your DNS query continues to query your ISP's DNS servers every time you visit a new website, connect to a new server, or fire up a new internet-connected application. Hence, it means that even though your traffic is encrypted, your ISP can clearly see everything you connect to you're going on the internet and every site you visit on the web.

To install DNSCrypt on Mac OS via brew cask

brew cask install dnscrypt

Once installed, enable it and choose a server that is closest to your location for performance.

Top 5 most asked interview questions and answers

noreply@blogger.com (agentc) — Sun, 19 Jan 2014 10:30:00 +0000

1. Tell me about yourself: This is often the opening question in an interview. It's also one of the most difficult if you're not prepared. Remember, the interviewer does not want to hear about your hometown or your scrapbooking hobby.
This question calls for your one-minute commercial that summarizes your years of experience and skills and your personality in the context of the job for which you are interviewing. Get to the point and sell your professional self. Develop a few brief sentences that demonstrate you have what it takes to do the job -- experience, proven results and desire to contribute.

2. Why should we hire you?: The key to answering any question about you versus your competition is using specifics.
"Everybody is going to speak in generalities, so you need something that will make you stand out a bit," said Linda, a teacher in Springfield, Ohio. Give real examples that show them you are best-suited for the job. Linda says she would point out her achievements and accomplishments throughout her career that are relevant to the open position, as well as her experiences in dealing with different types of students and teaching situations.
Pinpoint the qualities you have that are truly valuable to the company.

3. Why do you want to work here? What do you know about our company?: Peter, a physician in Indianapolis, said that research is important in answering these questions.
"I would use this opportunity to show off what I know about the company and, more importantly, how I would fit in."
Susan, a vice president of benefits in Chicago, said that she would address issues and challenges in the company to demonstrate the depth of her knowledge.
"I usually talk about revenue, numbers of employees, and also challenges in their type of business and how my experience relates to that," she said. "I would point out things I have done in similar companies that could address their problems."

4. What are your weaknesses?: The secret to answering this question is using your weaknesses to your advantage.
"I would turn my weaknesses into strengths," said Tara, an attorney. "For example, if my weaknesses include my lack of patience I would then state that because of this, I have learned to take special measures to ensure that I remain calm and attentive."
Just make sure that you do give a real answer to this question. None of us is without faults, so don't pretend that you do not have weaknesses.

5. What did you dislike about your last job? Why did you leave your last job?: You need to be cautious about these kinds of questions and make sure you do not end up sounding bitter.
"I would never talk down about my former company, the boss, or my former co-workers," Tara said.
You need to have a good understanding about the job for which you're applying to turn this question into a positive one. It may be best to say that you really enjoyed many aspects of your job, then focus on how this new job will give you the opportunity to contribute more in a particular area that is key to the position.

8 useful ClearCase Views Commands

noreply@blogger.com (agentc) — Thu, 22 Nov 2007 07:10:00 +0000

Views in ClearCase are similar to a 'workspace' or 'working directory' concept from other source versioning system. Typically developers would have more than one view for reference or comparison. A special feature is the use of dynamic view, which provides real-time versions on the working directory. However the trade off is the high usage of network bandwidth compared to the snapshot view.

Create a new view
cleartool mkview -tag {view name} /{view path}/{view name}.vws

List view
cleartool lsview {view name}

Short listing of view
cleartool lsview -s {view name}Search view
cleartool lsview -region nt/unix -s | grep {view name}

Long listing of view
cleartool lsview -l {view name}

Set into a view
cleartool setview {view name}

Set config spec
cleartool setcs {config spec}Edit config spec
