Common OpenSSL Commands with Keys and Certificates

SSL Info

Generate RSA private key with certificate in a single command

openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4096 -sha256 -keyout example.key -out example.crt -subj "/CN=example.com" -days 3650 -passout pass:foobar

Generate Certificate Signing Request (CSR) from private key with passphrase

openssl x509 -x509toreq -in example.crt -out example.csr -signkey example.key -passin pass:foobar

#Install and use pip in a local directory without root/sudo access. #####By: @saurabhshri

##Why? Many users when are given server access, do not have root (or sudo) privileges and can not simply do sudo apt-get install python-pip . Here's an easy way you can install and use pip without root (or sudo) access in a local directory. Note : This works without easy_install too.

.NET Framework (and .NET Standard) Compatibility List with Operating Systems

This summary/conclusion will not be updated anymore. I have switched to .NET 5 completely, which runs on Windows 7 SP1 and newer.

For class libraries, I will use the targets .NET Standard 1.1, 2.0 and 2.1 at the same time, together with .NET Framework 2.0 and 4.0. Applications on the other hand will always targeted to .NET 5.0 only.

Recommended minimum system requirements

Purpose

Bootstrap knowledge of LLMs ASAP. With a bias/focus to GPT.

Avoid being a link dump. Try to provide only valuable well tuned information.

Prelude

Neural network links before starting with transformers.

Create a Windows 10 VM.
Edit VM settings Processor section. Enable (tick) these:
- Virtualize Intel VT-x/AMD-V
- Virtualize CPU Performance Counters
- Virtualize IOMMU
