I'm going to a 'secret' gathering tomorrow, very exciting. This is a great group of people I've found, incredibly welcoming and hospitable. One member made a vulgar comment about a woman and he was immediately suspended from the society for 90 days. It makes me very happy to see that sort of chivalry still exists, even if not as mainstream as it once was. Contrary to what many people will say, your daughters and wives are safer around the 'bigots' than they are at any university or workplace. There, no one will look out for them or protect them to that extent, not even their closest friends.

Still waiting to hear back from my recruiter. I put Cyberwarfare at the top of my career list. Sure, all the other ones I picked sound awesome, but I figure: I'm good at cybersecurity, I enjoy it, so let's not swim against the current here trying to learn a completely new skill to build a career around when I already have a perfectly good one that can get me to a decent spot in life. I'm getting back into bug bounties too. Still talking with support to regain access to my account. The last time I seriously attempted a bounty was probably 2-3 years ago, and I've learned so much more since then so I'm pretty confident this time around. It sounds silly, but playing Deus Ex is what encouraged me to get back into it after so long. It reminded me of why I enjoyed hacking in the first place.
