Not quite. The Swat ponytail took four years to cultivate. I only had 13 months for this look.

What was the first moment you became aware that this was your career path? What do know now that you wish you knew before making that choice? What delights you and you only discovered it now that you are in the field?

The reason experts haven't implemented the "super obvious" solution to the "very simple problem" in the subject area you are not an expert in is perhaps because (and hear me out): The problem really isn't simple The solution really isn't obvious The experts actually understand it

Serious productivity boost for reading code on GitHub. 1️⃣. Go to any repo you are interested in on GitHub. 2️⃣. Replace "github" with "github1s" (one + s) in the browser address bar. 3️⃣. Enjoy browsing code like you would in VS Code. This is huge 🔥

Network asset baseline, tracking, management/inventory, including patch management. Huge, hairy, intractable problem for most orgs. Often done piecemeal and badly.
