I think the best advice I can give is "stay focused, alert, and highly flexible. I certainly did not end up where I thought I was going to go.
- At 16 I wanted to study psychology.
- At 17 (college freshman) I studied philosophy assuming I’d go into law like my father.

- At 26 I began mixing my love of information security, and backgrounds in finance and law.

- At 52 I shitpost in Lemmy while trying to keep this country’s shit infrastructure from collapsing.

- Comment on Itch.io apologise for "frustration and confusion" after delisting thousands of NSFW projects 5 days ago:
It’s not difficult to imagine what kind of expression these groups might decide to deem as unacceptable next.
Literally the bottom line. They have found something that works, and they are going to use and abuse it.

Too bad the excellent software he made is now unavailable.
- Comment on Antz in my Pantz 1 week ago:
I just ate a burrito drowned in apricot-habanero hot sauce which I further modified by adding extra habaneros and red thai chilis. I’m pretty sure capsaicin was meant to deter mammals from eating hot peppers.

- Comment on Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 gets its first teaser, and you'd better "be prepared for sadness" 3 weeks ago:
I honestly feel that we didn’t truly hit that Cyberpunk dystopia until the past fifteen years. It’s not that multinational corporations weren’t a problem, its that now we have megacorps truly influencing every minute and every aspect of our lives to the point that it is impossible to tell if any thought that crosses our brain is truly our or if it has been somehow tainted by the omnipresence of megacorp influence.
It is ironic that I typed that on my cyberdeck (smartphone) while listening to a conference call with a megacorp (Microsoft) and wearing a auditory neural link (Bluetooth earpiece), then uploaded it to “the net”.
- Comment on Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 gets its first teaser, and you'd better "be prepared for sadness" 3 weeks ago:
Cyberpunk (the genre) prior to 2020 felt like a warning. Now it feels like getting our face shoved in the dump we took on the carpet and being yelled at “look at what you did…bad!!!”.

A friend of mine met her now husband and father of her child on the free tier of Plenty Of Fish. That was a decade ago though. I’m not sure if the service has degraded since.

Everyone assuming the tall white guy is packing when in my experience those little hispanic guys are the ones with the monster dong.
