Hacker with a focus on Windows binaries. Writing packers is fun. Lord help me if my posts represent my employer (they do not).

I'm so tired of applying to jobs and hearing nothing back. I feel like a bad candidate for everything. Very demoralizing.
Happy trans day of visibility. If you havent figured it out yet (I am quiet about it), I am trans.
Recruiter just informed me the biggest problem he sees is filtering out the real candidates. So on top of having to deal with ATS, the roles are flooded with AI fake candidates. Fuck AI, man.
Security analysts aren't getting paid enough, from all the jobs I've looked at. It's an important SOC job that deserves better pay!
We are watching a playthrough of Double-D dinosaur on Twitch. We did a doubletake because the double D dino looks like my character. It's a funny dating sim.

Just applied for an infosec teaching role. With my ATS-fighting fu, I hope to hear back. Fingers crossed!
Jesus, thank God for LLMs, I wouldn't know if my generated resume was passing ATS without it. Fuck ATS though, pissed all my applications were going into a black hole.
Finally saw Blackhat. I don't remember why hackers were salty about it, it was a solid hacker thriller!
