If You Were Ahead of the Curve 30 or 40 Years Ago… That means you built a first-principles understanding of computing, networks, and systems. Most people today—even in AI—are building on abstractions. But you? You understand the layers beneath. And remember: that’s not obsolete; it’s leverage. What I’m really saying is, you’re lucky if you… Continue reading Your Technical Foundation Is Rare

What is research and why is it crucial for elevating your knowledge in computer security?

Doing research in computer security since 1989 has kind of put me in a situation where I could organically learn what research really is and what I expect from it. To start with, perhaps it’s easier to say what is “not” considered research. These days, when people talk about research, they’re simply referring to Googling… Continue reading What is research and why is it crucial for elevating your knowledge in computer security?

Essential Algorithms: A Practical Approach to Computer Algorithms Using Python and C#

Essential AlgorithmsA Practical Approach to Computer Algorithms Using Python and C#by Stephens, Rod This book resonated deeply with me—especially the chapter on Sorting, which brought back memories of my first real challenge in assembly language programming. I had to sort millions of records using various algorithms to find the fastest one, and that experience shaped… Continue reading Essential Algorithms: A Practical Approach to Computer Algorithms Using Python and C#
