I did also memorize erogenous zones at some point, so your advice wasn't too far off :)

[OP here] I was ~14 when I wrote this (found it recently when looking through old files) which accounts for the questionable style and lack of citations. I thought it was entertaining and still somewhat informative so I posted it here despi

For sec research, yes. It's good training :). You can write articles, bleepingcomputer-style, about various interesting advertisements and observe techniques. Overall, the forums are fun and while not exceedingly useful, not use less

Where is this information being sourced? (that might be on the website but I couldn't find it so maybe make it more evident?)

I don't think time to learn bash or programming intuition can reasonably be included in the timeframe to build a product. It's assumed that time starts after you come up with the idea to do something, and retroactively saying &q

The clipboard history idea can be done in ... around 5 minutes in Linux (using clipnotify, parcellite, echo, and grep). Ironically this is the project the author claimed would take far longer than 2 hours.
