  • DNS, a mini introduction

    Every website you visit resides on a sever (which is just a fancy name for a computer that “serves” content to other computers. Confusingly, it is also the name given to the software inside a computer that handles web requests, like Apache) and in order for your machine to get in touch with a server and ask for a web page, it needs to know the server’s IP address. So you just need to type the IP address of the server in your browser!

  • No such thing as too basic

    Do you remember when you didn’t know Javascript? Or how to use the command line? Or what a compiler was?
