# Git
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 4 Ws of Git
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT is Git?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHO is Git made for?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHY is Git used?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHEN is Git used?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Last but not least, HOW do we use Git?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let's start with the WHAT
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Git is tool that's used in the programming Industry.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Specifically to track project work done, and the changes to files we've made.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The more correct term is Source Control.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is NOT a programming language.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now we move onto the WHO.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Git is a tool made for (usually) us programmers to track the work we've done.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Programmer socks (not) included.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now we need to ask the WHY.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why would we need a tool like this?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why not use Google Drive instead?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I will find your IP address.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
In all honesty,
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's to help keep track of who did what.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
And to work on unique features...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
without affecting the main area/branch (we'll return to this) of our work.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now finally the WHEN.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
When DO we use git?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Because Git keeps track of the changes we've made to files,
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
We can then use it to commit and stage these files,
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
and push them to a place where we can store them.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
This place is called a Repository.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
But, an interesting feature of git, is that it allows you to time-travel.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meaning that if a project breaks, you can go back to before it broke.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now I hear you in the audience asking...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why not use SVN?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The answer is simple.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
![NAH](3_git/NAH.jpg)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
An actual answer is that Git is Distributed, and SVN in centralized.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Simply put, devs can store their changes locally on their machines,
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
where on SVN they're stored on a central system.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
With a central system you NEED to be connected at all times to work on it.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can work locally on git without having to be connected,
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
and then push once you're reconnected.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Back to git.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let's start with the basics.

## Why you should join UL Computer Society
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
## Hello 1st years!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Or any other year, we arent picky)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
((Some of your lecturers are even members))
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(((If you are ISE we are here to help you escape this building))
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are UL Computer Society and we are here to ~~kidnap~~ recruit you today!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
As you might guess we really like computers.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Though we would rather say we are in teh business of networking.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
We do the usual networking with switches and cables
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
But we also do Social Networking (aided by free pizza every so often)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
On top of that we do intra-society networking (like Games Development)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Or if brave inter-society networking with other computer societies
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
## What else we do
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
We have a mix of Software, Social and Hardware events
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
And go to Tech Conferences like PyCon or SISTEM
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
We also provide a (long) list of services to our members
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
## Skynet
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(the good kind)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
((We swear))
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(((Though it is self updating.....)))
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Skynet is our (semi) enterprise grade computer cluster
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is ~32 years old now
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
100TB+ of data storage
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is also FOSS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Can get hands on with the ``root`` team if ye want (?)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
## Meetups
We meet every Wendesday at 6pm in teh Courtyard room in Student Life
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
## Wolves

## Welcome (back) everyone!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
we got a quite a bit of server power here at Skynet
<img src="6_minecraft-onboarding/skynet-server.jpg" alt="Computer Society definitely not evil servers" width="120px" height="160px"></img>
### so we decided to use some of that for evil (Minecraft servers)*
<p style="font-size: 10px"> *we are not liable for failing stuff bc you stayed up until 4am to finish building your castle </p>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
### soooo, how do you get access to our Minecraft servers?
there are a few easy steps involved
---------------------------------------------------------------------
### first of all you have to be in the CompSoc discord server
link here: [discord.skynet.ie](https://discord.skynet.ie/)
or you can find it on the society's page on the UL Wolves website
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
### next you need to have your discord account linked to your ul wolves account
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
### and finally!! you need to link your Minecraft account like this
<img src="6_minecraft-onboarding/link-minecraft.png" alt="Link Minecraft account" width="300px" height="23px"></img>
(you can use the ``#bot-commands`` channel to not spam everyone)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
## but what's the ip??
------------------------------------------------
### we actually got 2 servers you can play on!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
## first one is a vanilla 1.20.4 server, but you can join from most versions past and future even though not all features might work
seriously! i usually play from 1.21 and it also worked when i joined from 1.8.9
the address of the server is **minecraft.compsoc.games.skynet.ie**
if you want to join from bedrock edition: ip is **193.1.99.91** and the port is **19132**
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### for this server i made a modpack that enhances the multiplayer experience a bit nothing big AND you DON'T NEED to have it to play
you can find it on [Modrinth.com](https://www.modrinth.com) and search for [CompSoc Vanilla Enhanced](https://modrinth.com/modpack/compsoc-vanilla-enhanced) (or click the links here)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
## second server is using the Aged modpack version 2.2.2
will let you know if we update, check the discord server
the address of the server is **minecraft-aged.compsoc.games.skynet.ie**
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
### you can find the modpack for this server by searching for "Aged" on [Modrinth.com](https://www.modrinth.com)
remember to download the right version of the modpack, which is currently 2.2.2!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
## That's it have fun!

# Virtual Machines (and more)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
so what is a virtual machine???
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
basically you run another smaller computer in your computer
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
*insert inception joke here\*
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Why would you want this?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
- You can run multiple OSes on one machine
- You can run software that might not be compatible with your main OS
- It's helpful for testing and setting up a new OS
- VMs are used **A LOT** in those big server rooms and professional environments
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
### How do I do this on my own laptop then?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
there's a lot of *virtualization* software out there, but we'll be using VirtualBox today
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's free, and it's pretty easy to use
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
you can download it [here](https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
if you already know all of this just wait we have more stuff after this
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
when you open VirtualBox, create a new VM like this:
<img src="7_virtualization/new-vm.png" alt="Create a new VM" width="400px" height="187px"></img>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
then choose a name and select the image to use for the OS
<img src="7_virtualization/select-image.png" alt="Choose an image" width="351px" height="196px"></img>
I'll be using Ubuntu 24.04, if you want to use another linux distro you probably know how to do this already
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
now, select how much memory and CPU you want to allocate to the new VM
<img src="7_virtualization/memory-cpu.png" alt="Allocate memory and CPU" width="353px" height="196px"></img>
The defaults you get are fine for this demo
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
and finally, choose how much storage you want to give the VM
<img src="7_virtualization/storage.png" alt="Allocate storage" width="352px" height="196px"></img>
10GB is enough for now, you can use more if you want
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Click "Finish" and now you got your new VM!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
we still need to install the operating system but that's easy enough
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
*live demo in progress\*
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Now on to the next part (it gets better)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
you probably saw how many resources it takes to run a VM
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
what if I want to only run a single app without all the overhead??
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Containers to the rescue!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
containers are kind of like VMs, but much lighter
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
instead of emulating an entire computer, they just run the OS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Why use VMs then?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
- VMs are more secure
- they're more isolated from the host system
- not limited to running the same OS as the host
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
### How do I use containers?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
one of the most popular container platforms is Docker
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
rn we will use it on the VM we just created
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
the commands we will need to install Docker:
```
curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh``
sudo sh get-docker.sh
```

Part one is the easy enough one
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Can brute force it if you really want
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once ye got the part one complete the second one opens
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Brute forcing may take longer than the heat death of the universe
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
So ye have to get smarter
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Plenty of algos to be introduced to
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you find it easy there are many ways to amp up teh difficulty
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can compete to complete it fastest
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(A classmate was in teh worldwide top 1000 last year)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are global and local leaderboards (we have one)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can do it in a new language (I use rust)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can create your own language for it (if ye are that insane)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some do it in excel
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Or brainfuck
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Or by hand
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can add [Bad Apple][0] to it (2022 Day 10, make a TV)

One downside is it hits us right at exam times
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another is that the puzzles release at 6am
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thankfully all past puzzles are available to do
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
So we tend to run a second one in January for those who are interested
