Getting started with OpenSSL: Cryptography basics
This article is the first of two on cryptography basics using OpenSSL, a production-grade library and toolkit popular on Linux and other systems. (To install the most recent version of OpenSSL, see here.) OpenSSL utilities are available at the command line, and programs can call functions from the OpenSSL libraries. The sample program for this article is in C, the source language for the OpenSSL libraries.

Study the Elements with KDE's Kalzium
I've written about a number of chemistry packages in the past and all of the computational chemistry that you can do in a Linux environment. But, what is fundamental to chemistry? Why, the elements, of course. So in this article, I focus on how you can learn more about the elements that make up everything around you with Kalzium. KDE's Kalzium is kind of like a periodic table on steroids. Not only does it have information on each of the elements, it also has extra functionality to do other types of calculations.

Android Low-Memory Killer--In or Out?
One of the jobs of the Linux kernel—and all operating system
kernels—is to manage the resources available to the system. When those resources
get used up, what should it do? If the resource is RAM, there's not much
choice. It's not feasible to take over the behavior of any piece of user
software, understand what that software does, and make it more memory-efficient. Instead, the kernel has very little choice but to try to
identify the software that is most responsible for using up the system's
RAM and kill that process.

A beginners guide to Linux permissions
One of the main benefits of Linux systems is that they are known to be less prone to security vulnerabilities and exploits than other systems. Linux definitely gives users more flexibility and granular controls over its file systems' security permissions. This may imply that it's critical for Linux users to understand security permissions. That isn't necessarily true, but it's still wise for beginning users to understand the basics of Linux permissions.
