Setup SSH Key to connect to server securely

Step 1: Generate keys in your local computer
ssh-keygen -t rsa

Step 2: Copy your public key (which you have just generated in the previous step) to the server you want to connect to

cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh username@server.example "mkdir -p ~/.ssh && chmod 700 ~/.ssh && cat >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys"

Done!
Now you can login to the server from your computer through SSH Keys (no need to enter password each time)

Optional (for server administrators): disable ROOT login through password for security once you have setup logging in with SSH keys successfully.

Python Tkinter: Changing background images using key press

Let's write a simple Python application that changes its background image everytime you click on it. Here is a short code that helps you do that: import os, sys import Tkinter import Image, ImageTk def key(event): print "pressed", repr(event.char) event.widget.quit() root = Tkinter.Tk() root.bind_all(' ', key) root.geometry('+%d+%d' % (100,100)) dirlist = os.listdir('.') old_label_image = None for f in dirlist: try: image1 = Image.open(f) root.geometry('%dx%d' % (image1.size[0],image1.size[1])) tkpi = ImageTk.PhotoImage(image1) label_image = Tkinter.Label(root, image=tkpi) label_image.place(x=0,y=0,width=image1.size[0],height=image1.size[1]) root.title(f) if old_label_image is not None: old_label_image.destroy() old_label_image = label_image root.mainloop() # wait until user clicks the window except Exception, e: # Skip a...

Spam and Bayes' theorem

I divide my email into three categories: A1 = spam. A2 = low priority, A3 = high priority. I find that: P(A1) = .7 P(A2) = .2 P(A3) = .1 Let B be the event that an email contains the word "free". P(B|A1) = .9 P(B|A2) = .01 P(B|A3) = .01 I receive an email with the word "free". What is the probability that it is spam?
