Sysadmin 101: Leveling Up
This is the fourth in a series of articles on systems administrator fundamentals. These days, DevOps has made even the job title "systems

Advanced lm-sensors Tips and Tricks on Linux
I've been using the lm-sensors tool ever since CPUs became hot enough to melt themselves. It monitors CPU temperature, fan speeds, and motherboard voltages. In this two-part series, I'll explain some advanced uses of lm-sensors, and look at some of the best graphical interfaces to use with it.
Open Source Summit: Day 2 features TensorFlow, BlockChain, and HitRecord
The actor and founder of HitRecord Joseph Gordon-Levitt kicked off the second day of the Open Source Summit. His open creative community, HitRecord, allows for the evolution of open source film projects. We learned how a company is using BlockChain to fight poverty while keeping plastic out of the ocean, and about how Microsoft and Google are now more deliberate about how they create a culture of openness inside and outside their companies.
Watch as Jason Hibbets and I give you a quick summary of day 2, and I manage to understand what TensorFlow is along the way.

Key Considerations for Software Updates for Embedded Linux and IoT
The Mirai botnet attack that enslaved poorly secured connected embedded
devices is yet another tangible example of the importance of security
before bringing your embedded devices online. A new strain of Mirai has
caused network outages to about a million Deutsche Telekom customers due

An introduction to machine learning today
Machine learning and artificial intelligence (ML/AI) mean different things to different people, but the newest approaches have one thing in common: They are based on the idea that a program's output should be created mostly automatically from a high-dimensional and possibly huge dataset, with minimal or no intervention or guidance from a human. Open source tools are used in a variety of machine learning and artificial intelligence projects. In this article, I'll provide an overview of the state of machine learning today.

Linux Groups Command for Beginners (with Examples)
In Linux, there's a concept of users (those who use the system), and then there's the concept of groups, which is basically a logical mechanism to manage a collection of users. To give you a basic idea, groups make it easy to manage users with, say, same security and access privileges.

YouTube on the Big Screen
For years I've been jealous of folks with iOS devices who could just send
their phone screens to their Apple TV devices. It seems like the Android
screen-mirroring protocols never work right for me. My Sony Xperia has
multiple types of screen mirroring, and none of them seem to work on my
smart TVs or Roku devices.
