Beware the cost of "async"
// Don't do this, because you don't need async if you're only calling one
// downstream async method and returning its value, unprocessed.
public async Task<int> DoSomething(int x, int y)
{
return await SlowMath.AddAsync(x, y);
}
// Do this instead:
public Task<int> DoSomething(int x, int y)

Code Review

A guide for reviewing code and having your code reviewed.

Peer code reviews are the single biggest thing you can do to improve your code - Jeff Atwood

Purpose

Code review is an important part of a team's development process. It helps to:

  • disseminate knowledge about the codebase/technology/techniques across teams
  • increase awareness of the features being developed

A curated list of AWS resources to prepare for the AWS Certifications


A curated list of AWS resources to prepare for the AWS Certifications

A curated list of awesome AWS resources you need to prepare for the all 5 AWS Certifications. This gist will include: open source repos, blogs & blogposts, ebooks, PDF, whitepapers, video courses, free lecture, slides, sample test and many other resources.


Visa requirements for UK conferences.

First you'll want to check if you need a visa to enter the UK.

  • Nationals of the EU, Switzerland, and EEA countries will not need a visa, and are free to work and conduct business in the UK.
  • Nationals from some designated countries such as USA may travel for tourist or business purposes under a visa exemption. The link above will detail what documents you need to provide in order to travel under a visa exemption.
  • Other nationals will need a visa.

The rules for allowable business travel under a visa exemption are covered by the same rules as those travelling under a vistor visa. If you will be travelling under a visa-exemption and the conference is covering your costs in any way you should make sure to read the relevant section below.

My tips for finding security issues in GitHub projects.

GitHub for Bug Bounty Hunters

GitHub repositories can disclose all sorts of potentially valuable information for bug bounty hunters. The targets do not always have to be open source for there to be issues. Organization members and their open source projects can sometimes accidentally expose information that could be used against the target company. in this article I will give you a brief overview that should help you get started targeting GitHub repositories for vulnerabilities and for general recon.

Mass Cloning

You can just do your research on github.com, but I would suggest cloning all the target's repositories so that you can run your tests locally. I would highly recommend @mazen160's GitHubCloner. Just run the script and you should be good to go.

$ python githubcloner.py --org organization -o /tmp/output

gRPC and Load Balancing

Just documenting docs, articles, and discussion related to gRPC and load balancing.

https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/doc/load-balancing.md

Seems gRPC prefers thin client-side load balancing where a client gets a list of connected clients and a load balancing policy from a "load balancer" and then performs client-side load balancing based on the information. However, this could be useful for traditional load banaling approaches in clound deployments.

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/grpc-io/8s7UHY_Q1po

gRPC "works" in AWS. That is, you can run gRPC services on EC2 nodes and have them connect to other nodes, and everything is fine. If you are using AWS for easy access to hardware then all is fine. What doesn't work is ELB (aka CLB), and ALBs. Neither of these support HTTP/2 (h2c) in a way that gRPC needs.
