hey guys,

so i know now many programing language : java , SQL, C++, javascript, html, css,PHP

I don’t know where to start with hacking iv done some of the hacking levels her but i don’t see where it is really going. i want to be able to look at almost any code and crack it in a sense of getting where i want basically. the reason why is because i am building my own website and i want to make it very secure i thought to myself why not become a hacker instead of learning how to make a website secure i can just hack my own website and patch up every single gap i can find in the website.

When I first saw this message I decided to wait and see if someone was going to post something… that’s mainly because when I see a question starting with a first line like yours I feel a burning sensation growing from the inside and if I go straight away with an answer I would probably get a negative karma.

That being said I’ll try to be as polite as possible.

Number 1:

“I know” is a big claim… and the fact that in two years you have not “found the time” to complete a single programming challenge is self explanatory.

Number 2:

HTML and CSS are not programming languages, even though some may argue that HTML+CSS are turing complete (you can encode Rule 110 cellular automaton with pure HTML and CSS).

HTML = HyperText Markup Language
CSS = Cascading Style Sheets

In short, HTML is a markup language and CSS is a stylesheet language… to be more clear, they don’t “do” anything, they reside at rendering or presentation layer, as you prefer.

Number 3:

This is just a personal consideration, mainly for people reading this thread that are interested on expanding their knowledge.

SQL is a special-purpose programming language, it is also not just like C++ for example, as it is considered a Fourth-generation programming language, while C++ is a Third-generation programming language.

Well, the rest of your post is pretty much useless in the sense that, without changing your actual knowledge, you will not get where you want.
And not being able to see where it is really going, as you say, is just a direct consequence of that fact.

Now, I know this answer may seem a bit rude, but if you will you can make it your strongest starting point and become a better coder and, why not, a better hacker.

So, here is my suggestion to you:
Don’t think you “know” many programming languages, instead start all over again with a fresh mind and try to dedicate some time learning the basic concepts.

P.S.: ok guys I’m ready to see my positive karma going down like a falling asteroid lol

I am going to answer your post with my story. In the early 90’s, you had to know what you wanted to look for, and in order to know what you wanted to look for, you had to ask the right person the right question (or they ignored you). After some trial and error, and some basic research (remember google was not arround then), I found some articles that mentioned 2600. This got me started on Softice, which in turn got me into some sites with tutorials.

I am not going to bash your post, but if you are really interested in learning the skills of ‘hacking’ (notice I did NOT say become a hacker), then you must learn to research, learn to read, learn to take any scrap of advise that comes your way.

I would still only consider myself mildly familiar with the art of reversing and the likes, but I love that I am ablle to learn more as technology advances.

Edit: Damn I completely forgot that I can’t give karmas using a mobile.

@flabbyrabbit : This feature should be added in mobile too. Please add it.
