Why not create a new account and fork your old repositories? You can restart with updating your old projects and overtime you’d build back up that reputation. I’d also add a note that you were the previous author and lost access to the repo

There was an article or comment a couple of years back discussing how people are now writing grandiose blog posts like they are describing how and why they broke up Pink Floyd. I wish I could find the original source because I still think a

CCC would be better but REcon is kind of niche because it’s focus is reverse engineering and not “hacking”in general.

Yes, but half the code in the book is implemented in Java.

Crafting Interpreters has been sitting on my shelf for two or so years. I would love to read the book but the use of Java shelved it. I don’t have the time to understand the concepts from the book while simultaneously learning Java.

Note: Someone commented on the “limited shelf-life” of ransomware and why this doesn’t hurt other victims. They deleted their comment but I’m posting my response. You are incorrect. What is limited is the number of attacks that can be used

When your daughter gets a little older I’d recommend checking out Gabby’s Dollhouse.

Check out Assembly Language for x86 Processors by Kip Irvine. It’s probably one of the best books on x86. The older editions are way cheaper.

I’m enjoying How AI Works but I have not made it to the other yet.
