If you don’t get it, ask a friend who knows computer networking. Alternately, you could do a little Googling…

The general idea behind VPNs
Unfortunately, VPNs don’t finish their tasks with a great song-and-dance scene.
Look at that stat: 87,672 shares. I wonder how many people posted an answer.
I should come up with a list of the other common security questions, cleverly re-phrased.
…wait until your IoT grill does it.
I need to look up this grill to see what its embedded controller does. Aside from…
- reporting its current settings and temperature, and
- some limited ability to control it remotely (very limited, if at all — the computers in IoT devices are cheap and insecure, and attackers can cause all sorts of mischief with a networked propane tank)…
…what else does it do that needs an update, never mind an update big enough to interfere with cooking?
You really should listen to the “egineering” team, and it wouldn’t hurt for some “egineers” to work on their communications and sales skills.
print() (or printf()) works for these pros…
- Linus Torvalds: “I don’t like debuggers. Never have, probably never will.”
- Guido van Rossum: “…often the quickest way to debug a program is to add a few print statements to the source: the fast edit-test-debug cycle makes this simple approach very effective.”
- Robert C. “Uncle Bob” Martin: Debuggers a re wasteful timesink.
…and it works pretty nicely for me, too.

The third kind of “free”
If you’re into open source, you’re probably aware of the different kinds of free, thanks to the expressions “Free as in beer” and “Free as in speech”.
If you’ve dealt with some particular open source codebases, you’ve probably also internalized a third kind of free: Free as in mattress.
