Want to handle arguments in vanilla JS? Here is how!

const args = process.argv.slice(2).reduce((accumulator, current) => {
  let [key, value = true] = current.split('=');
  accumulator[key] = value;
  return accumulator;
}, {})

console.log(args);

Introduction

Esolangs are cool. I especially like Befunge. I like Befunge so much, in fact, that I'd like to write complex utilities and apps in it.

What? It can't be done? That's what they told me too. But I'll show them; I'll show them all!

This Gist is a proof of concept to demonstrate how to run Python commands from a Befunge programme -- opening up a world of opportunity.

Steps to run

1. Clone and compile https://github.com/CzechsMix/FungePP

Sometimes contributions don't count. Why?

• Why not check? Source

How do you upload a file to GitHub, then lock it so that git will no longer check for and push updates on that file, to preserve a local customized copy?

git update-index --skip-worktree FILE_NAME
git update-index --no-skip-worktree FILE_NAME

Google Address Auto Complete Checkout

B@SE JS

https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/places-autocomplete-addressform

This uses Googles address auto complete to fill out a Neto checkout. Because of how Neto checkout works, we need to add in MutationObserver to check if the suburb has been updated by neto.checkout.js. Then we can add in the new field and then call the $.checkout_CalShipping() function to calulate shipping cost.

WannaCry|WannaDecrypt0r NSA-Cyberweapon-Powered Ransomware Worm

• Virus Name: WannaCrypt, WannaCry, WanaCrypt0r, WCrypt, WCRY
• Vector: All Windows versions before Windows 10 are vulnerable if not patched for MS-17-010. It uses EternalBlue MS17-010 to propagate.
• Ransom: between $300 to $600. There is code to 'rm' (delete) files in the virus. Seems to reset if the virus crashes.
• Backdooring: The worm loops through every RDP session on a system to run the ransomware as that user. It also installs the DOUBLEPULSAR backdoor. It corrupts shadow volumes to make recovery harder. (source: malwarebytes)
• Kill switch: If the website www.iuqerfsodp9ifjaposdfjhgosurijfaewrwergwea.com is up the virus exits instead of infecting the host. (source: malwarebytes). This domain has been sinkholed, stopping the spread of the worm. Will not work if proxied (source).

update: A minor variant of the viru

Someone sent me an email asking me what advice I had for new developers. I get this question a bunch, so I wanted to put all my thoughts in one place, that I can update as I get more ideas!

I answered this a bunch on my AMA repo, so here's some initial general answers, before I get to some of the specific questions:

• how to find a project to work on: notwaldorf/ama#33
• how I learn: notwaldorf/ama#32
• what to learn: notwaldorf/ama#51
• advice for your first job: notwaldorf/ama#59

Running nightmare on Amazon Linux

You may have thought of running nightmare on AWS Lambda. But before we can run it on Lambda, we need first to make it run on Amazon Linux.

Provision instance which replicates Lambda environment

According to AWS Documentation on Lambda Execution Environment and available Libraries we would need this AMI image with this alias amzn-ami-hvm-2016.03.3.x86_64-gp2. Keep in mind that AMI-image-id for this instance would be different in different regions (eg):

• In eu-west-1 - ami-f9dd458a
• In us-east-1 - ami-6869aa05
