I'll be more careful to speak simply next time we have that rare moment we're all being professional.
>I am not a native speaker of English, so it may be that.
Oh sure, to summarize: many of the roles I'd take would require a security clearance, but private companies that could make an exception to hire me refuse for irrational reasons, and it's making me sad because I never thought someone would emigrate FROM Pittsburgh.
I got the sense people used many tactics you'd often use with someone who is not a native US citizen, perhaps accidentally, not understanding that on a long enough timeline, I may choose another country to call home if folks will conflate being told to pay me with some kind of violent extortion.
Did the above help?
I'm happy to do a call, but if we speak verbally and the outcome isn't a promising lead, then I have to treat the contents of the call as business intelligence.
Does that help you understand?

Part of it was bad teaching -- same lessons over and over til you're exhausted doing ROT13, it's better to do one exercise on paper and have it be the Vigenère cipher or by the time you're covering something beyond the Ovaltine cipher the campers will be too tired to learn.
People focus too much on busywork in these classes, when modern analysis will be done using a computer. Maybe in a SCIF, but... there will be a computer involved.
A few scripts to easily brute force weird shit you find on other people's machines can be useful, or so I've heard -- also who calls it a "kaiser cipher"? Tell me that and I can tell you the answer to Life, The Universe, and Everything.
I also knew a lot of people who never became famous who drove me to become an underground hacker.
Be EXTREMELY wary of any success story that doesn't give specific strategies beyond "work hard" lest you realize that selective silence boosted someone who's... not a monster... but shows up at the finish line to espouse ideas they shot down for decades.
Let someone use it at home, then be forced to pay a license at "work".
(I regret being such a socialist in my 20s)
Also there's the comedy option of selling zero days you yourself inserted.
(I tend to just use them, since CERT was rude.)
(Also you neglected the exact age.)
Also, just because you have a huge bankroll doesn't make money worth less.
15k is 15k, regardless of how much you have in the bank.
It's valid either way to be angry about being mislead for a figure that would be a felony if merely yanked out of one's wallet.
(Also, anyone got a good way to get around the paywall so I can read this in it's entitety? Wayback machine doesn't have it archived, womp womp.)
At least now, when I binge, I tend to learn something :-)
Semantic difference. It's discrimination to only help the hotties.
>If you're making the claim that MEN ignoring WOMEN is a form of harassment/discrimination, but WOMEN ignoring MEN isn't, then you're experiencing some severe form of cognitive dissonance.
I've had folks politely turn down coffee, but I literally never had a female classmate refuse to help me with something related to an engineering course.
