Welp… it’s that time again for me to migrate to a new Mastodon instance. I want to thank @jerry for all of his hard work keeping Infosec.exchange alive and kicking and for giving me a home while I continue to figure out what it is I want out of this particular space. I’m definitely not running away from his server or anything he’s done, but more moving towards a community that has also welcomed me with open arms that fits a bit more with where I’m at these days.

To that end, this will be my last post on this account and hopefully you all end up automatically following me over on @therealahall once I’ve finished the migration. If not, then hopefully this link will get you to my new address. It’s been real and it’s been fun and at times, it’s been real fun. Onwards and upwards!

It’s been about a year since I showed up here and so it’s time for an updated #introduction.

Professionally, I’m a Director of #Engineering at a #startup called Project Admission building cool things in the ticketing/live event space.

I'm a #gamer, although I find myself playing less of them these days as I try to balance work, exploration, #travel, #digitalnomad, #diving, #reading, and many other things.

I'm currently living in #Mexico thriving on tacos and Modelo!

I'm a recent #football convert and tend to cheer on a few different national teams like #USA, #England, and #Mexico.

Things I will be talking about on this account.

#music, specifically #deathmetal and #blackmetal although I'm also a big fan of #trance and #edm.

#sports, specifically the #worldcup as well as the #nfl. I'm a lifelong #ChicagoBears fan so I'm used to a lot of weekly despair. I'm also a #hockey fan, but I don't watch much of it these days.

#tech, especially anything around #infosec, #php, #web #applications, #security, etc...

#videogames, currently playing #FinalFantasy15 but a huge fan of #jrpgs in general and really anything nostalgic.

#tv, specifically #realitytv as I'm a huge fan of shows like #survivor, #thechallenge, #amazingrace, etc... If someone can get voted out and go home, I probably watch it. Big fan of competition and artistic creation reality tv.

#diving. I'm a #PADI #divemaster who loves spending as much time underwater as possible!

I think that's pretty much me in a nutshell. I look forward to expanding who I'm following here!

“Given enough time, all your code will get deleted”

That’s a hell of a statement right there, but yeah, it’s very true
