I'm a self-taught 19-year-old programmer. Coding since 10, dropped out of high-school and got fist job at 15.
In the the early days I was extremely passionate, learning SICP, Algorithms, doing Haskell, C/C++, Rust, Assembly, writing toy compilers/interpreters, tweaking Gentoo/Arch. Even got a lambda tattoo on my arm after learning lambda-calculus and church numerals.
My first job - a company which raised $100,000 on kickstarter. The CEO was a dumb millionaire hippie, who was bored with his money, so he wanted to run a company even though he had no idea what he was doing. He used to talk about how he build our product, even tho he had 0 technical knowledge whatsoever. He was on news a few times which was pretty cringeworthy. The company had only 1 programmer (other than me) who was pretty decent.
We shipped the project, but soon we burned through kickstart money and the sales dried off. Instead of trying to aquire customers (or abandoning the project), boss kept looking for investors, which kept us afloat for an extra year.
Eventually the money dried up, and instead of closing gates, boss decreased our paychecks without our knowledge. He also converted us from full-time employees to "contractors" (also without our knowledge) so he wouldn't have to pay taxes for us. My paycheck decreased by 40% by I still stayed.
One day, I was trying to burn a USB drive, and I did "dd of=/dev/sda" instead of sdb, therefore wiping out our development server. They asked me to stay at company, but I turned in my resignation letter the next day (my highest ever post on reddit was in /r/TIFU).
Next, I found a job at a "finance" company. $50k/year as a 18-year-old. CEO was a good-looking smooth-talker who made few million bucks talking old people into giving him their retirement money.
He claimed he changed his ways, and was now trying to help average folks save money. So far I've been here 8 month and I do not see that happening. He forces me to do sketchy shit, that clearly doesn't have clients best interests in mind.
I am the only developer, and I quickly became a back-end and front-end ninja.
I switched the company infrastructure from shitty drag+drop website builder, WordPress and shitty Excel macros into a beautiful custom-written python back-end.
Little did I know, this company doesn't need a real programmer. I don't have clear requirements, I get unrealistic deadlines, and boss is too busy to even communicate what he wants from me.
Eventually I sold my soul. I switched parts of it to WordPress, because I was not given enough time to write custom code properly.
For latest project, I switched from using custom React/Material/Sass to using drag+drop TypeForms for surveys.
I used to be an extremist FLOSS Richard Stallman fanboy, but eventually I traded my morals, dreams and ideals for a paycheck. Hey, $50k is not bad, so maybe I shouldn't be complaining? :(
I got addicted to pot for 2 years. Recently I've gotten arrested, and it is honestly one of the best things that ever happened to me. Before I got arrested, I did some freelancing for a mugshot website. In un-related news, my mugshot dissapeared.
I have been sober for 2 month now, and my brain is finally coming back.
I know average developer hits a wall at around $80k, and then you have to either move into management or have your own business.
After getting sober, I realized that money isn't going to make me happy, and I don't want to manage people. I'm an old-school neck-beard hacker. My true passion is mathematics and physics. I don't want to glue bullshit libraries together.
I want to write real code, trace kernel bugs, optimize compilers. Albeit, I was boring in the wrong generation.
I've started studying real analysis, brushing up differential equations, and now trying to tackle machine learning and Neural Networks, and understanding the juicy math behind gradient descent.
I don't know what my plan is for the future, but I'll figure it out as long as I have my brain. Maybe I will continue making shitty forms and collect paycheck, while studying mathematics. Maybe I will figure out something else.
But I can't just let my brain rot while chasing money and impressing dumb bosses. If I wait until I get rich to do things I love, my brain will be too far gone at that point. I can't just sell myself out. I'm coming back to my roots.
I still feel like after experiencing industry and pot, I'm a shittier developer than I was at age 15. But my passion is slowly coming back.
Any suggestions from wise ol' neckbeards on how to proceed?

*Facebook Hackers follow the Rules*
(real story)
TL;DR: sorry, not available, can't do spoilers
One night I was with a group of friends out at a pub. A guy and his girlfriend show up, I didn't know them but they were my friend's friends.
The girl kept bragging the whole time about his boyfriend being a professional programmer, trying to remind it to everybody whenever possible (don't ask me why!).
So, after a while, the discussion moves towards "suspect Facebook activities" and the guy starts saying that he can hack Facebook.
- "What do you mean?", I ask.
- "Hacking into other people's accounts, even with 2 factor authentication. I did it a lot of times"
- "Wait, and they don't notice?"
- "Of course not! ^_^ He's a hacker", the girl replies.
Ok, time to do a coming out.
- "Hey, I'm a developer myself. Can you give me an idea of what you did in technical terms? Did you find a vulnerability? Used a virus? Maybe a keylogger?"
- "No... Uh... Well... The secret is to read the terms of service"
- "What?"
- "Yes... yes it's all in the facebook terms of service..."
- "Uhm, I'm not really sure I'm following. Could you prove it by hacking my Facebook account? I'm giving you the permission".
In less than a minute the discussion flew completely away and they never mentioned computers again.

Earlier I signed up on this forum called NulledBB. Basically some hacker skiddie forum that had a dump of an archive I wanted, unfortunately behind a paywall which I didn't want to bother with.
On signup I noticed that I couldn't use my domain as an email address, as I usually do (the domain is a catch-all which means that mail addresses can be made up for each service I sign up to on the fly, super useful). They did expose the regex that they accepted email as however, which included something along the lines of "@live.*".
So I figured, why not register a subdomain live.nixmagic.com real quick and put that into the mail servers? Didn't take too long and that's what I eventually went with, and registered as somepissedoffsysop@live.nixmagic.com (which I have no trouble putting on a public forum as you'll see in a minute).
Still didn't manage to get that archive I wanted but I figured, fuck it. It's a throwaway account anyway. But eventually that email address started to receive spam. Stupid motherfucker of a forum operator with his Kali skidmachine probably leaked it.
Usually I just blacklist the email address in SpamAssassin by adding an additional spam score of 100 to email sent to such addresses. But in that case it didn't even sit on the main domain, thanks to that stupid regex block from earlier... 😏
*Logs into my domain admin panel*
*Le rm on the live.nixmagic.com record*
Null routed entirely.. nulled, if you will! 🙃3 -
It has been bugging the shit out of me lately... the sheer number of shit-tier "programmers" that have been climbing out of the woodwork the last few years.
I'm not trying to come across as elitist or "holier than thou", but it's getting ridiculous and annoying. Even on here, you have people who "only do frontend development" or some other lame ass shit-stain of an excuse.
When I first started learning programming (PHP was my first language), it wasn't because I wanted to be a programmer. I used to be a member (my account is still there, in fact) of "HackThisSite", back when I was about 12 years old. After hanging out long enough, I got the hint that the best hackers are, in essence, programmers.
Want to learn how to do SQL injection? Learn SQL - write a program that uses an SQL database, and ask yourself how you would exploit your own software.
Want to reverse engineer the network protocol of some proprietary software? Learn TCP/IP - write a TCP/IP packet filter.
Back then, a programmer and a hacker were very much one in the same. Nowadays, some kid can download Python, write a "hello, world" program and they're halfway to freelancing or whatever.
It's rare to find a programmer - a REAL programmer, one who knows how the systems he develops for better than the back of his hand.
These days, I find people want the instant gratification that these simpler languages provide. You don't need to understand how virtual memory works, hell many people don't even really understand C/C++ pointers - and that's BASIC SHIT right there.
Put another way, would you want to take your car to a brake mechanic that doesn't understand how brakes work? I sure as hell wouldn't.
Watching these "programmers" out there who don't have a fucking clue how the code they write does what it does, is like watching a grown man walk around with a kid's toolbox full or plastic toys calling himself a mechanic. (I like cars, ok?!)
*sigh*
Python, AngularJS, Bootstrap, etc. They're all tools and they have their merits. But god fucking dammit, they're not the ONLY damn tools that matter. Stop making excuses *not* to learn something, Mr."IOnlyDoFrontEnd".
Coding ain't Lego's, fuckers.36 -
Watch out for these fucking bug bounty idiots.
Some time back I got an email from one shortly after making a website live. Didn't find anything major and just ran a simple tool that can suggest security improvements simply loading the landing page for the site.
Might be useful for some people but not so much for me.
It's the same kind of security tool you can search for, run it and it mostly just checks things like HTTP headers. A harmless surface test. Was nice, polite and didn't demand anything but linked to their profile where you can give them some rep on a system that gamifies security bug hunting.
It's rendering services without being asked like when someone washes your windscreen while stopped at traffic but no demands and no real harm done. Spammed.
I had another one recently though that was a total disgrace.
"I'm a web security Analyst. My Job is to do penetration testing in websites to make them secure."
"While testing your site I found some critical vulnerabilities (bugs) in your site which need to be mitigated."
"If you have a bug bounty program, kindly let me know where I should report those issues."
"Waiting for response."
It immediately stands out that this person is asking for pay before disclosing vulnerabilities but this ends up being stupid on so many other levels.
The second thing that stands out is that he says he's doing a penetration test. This is illegal in most major countries. Even attempting to penetrate a system without consent is illegal.
In many cases if it's trivial or safe no harm no foul but in this case I take a look at what he's sending and he's really trying to hack the site. Sending all kinds of junk data and sending things to try to inject that if they did get through could cause damage or provide sensitive data such as trying SQL injects to get user data.
It doesn't matter the intent it's breaking criminal law and when there's the potential for damages that's serious.
It cannot be understated how unprofessional this is. Irrespective of intent, being a self proclaimed "whitehat" or "ethical hacker" if they test this on a site and some of the commands they sent my way had worked then that would have been a data breach.
These weren't commands to see if something was possible, they were commands to extract data. If some random person from Pakistan extracts sensitive data then that's a breach that has to be reported and disclosed to users with the potential for fines and other consequences.
The sad thing is looking at the logs he's doing it all manually. Copying and pasting extremely specific snippets into all the input boxes of hacked with nothing to do with the stack in use. He can't get that many hits that way.4 -
I'm thirteen, and we have an excel unit in our computer class. When she's want to teach us something, she'd deploy her screen on ours and we couldn't do anything. It took me until the third time (yes, that long) to remember the connection was wired via Ethernet. I took the cord out and my computer was free! During the boring "lesson," I opened Code::Blocks to work on a fun side project. When she notice she wasn't connecting to my computer, she walked over to my chair and saw Code::Blocks on my screen. Then, I noticed her behind me. I quickly pressed ALT+TAB. She walked back to her chair. To this day I swear she thinks Im a hacker.11

Yesterday evening my family were watching his favourite tv show. Have nothing to do i too sat there with them.
The scenes on television were going like : The leading lady of the show were trying to convince her family that her husband is not involved in the molestations which police has charged on him. Person can be look alike of her husband. In fact my husband was some where else when the molestation was happening. She also had a proof and that was CCTV camera footage in a Compact Disk. So she started playing it in the TV presented in room with CD player. But it turns out that CD can't be played because villain hired a hacker to corrupt video quality playing in TV.
I laughed because in my knowledge that was not even possible in real life. Every family memeber started staring at me.
My mother : That's what you do? No? That's what you do whole day in your office?
Me: No, no. I....
My mother: See her face. Poor lady.
Me: But mom, that's impossible. It is just fiction. In real life it is not possible.
My mother : Get out of my sight.
My mom did not dine yesterday. These fucking serial maker. These women's. -
Reading this rant below remembered me once that I was taking with a generic person at the street about computers. At some time, she said: "my boyfriend is a Hacker. A real hacker. He knows everything about computers. I am going to give him a book that he wants for his birthday: Linux for dummies."
She was not telling a joke...

Medium is a machine, albeit a broken machine, that somehow bot farmers manage to get the most shitty click bait titles up... and the content of said shitty articles (if you can even call it 'content' i.e. two sentence recycled slop designed for those with single digit to negative IQ) is even worse...
Dev.to has become a laundry list of "(X fucking shitting things that Y developers didn't know with Z) - I swear browsing yesterday I saw literally the SAME LLM shitted template like ("Here's 9 things that you NEED to learn in 2025) - they even both used the number 9... fucking christ
Reddit... not even an possible way to even get a foot in there, I don't even understand that platform...
And, I can't believe I'm saying this, but Hacker News is quickly reaching the same level too - just filled with clowns who don't even know what LLMs are, or what even fucking copilot agent mode is - and keep in mind these are the guys who are supposed to be making 300K a year because they are the "leaders in tech"? fuck off
I'm quite close to just quitting it all entirely, even you guys (sadly)... I haven't been on in forever but I can imagine the type of bigbrains who have since come and gone in my absence here...
I wanted to stake my claim and make my living here... but currently, if the internet isn't 'bad' enough since say 2015/2016 - it's going to get AT LEAST 100x worse - every platform has their fucking dumb ass social quirks and the moment you don't conform you're an outcast - if you can even make sense of why certain articles get more traffic than others in the first place. fucking backwards ass idiot machine, I swear
I'm gonna go have fun in the real world for the foreseeable future, have fun trying to 'make it' in this cesspool. jfc

**How I Lost $38,000 to an Online Scam and Got It Back**
It all started when I stumbled upon an investment opportunity that seemed too good to pass up. The website was sleek, the testimonials glowing, and the returns promised were nothing short of life-changing. Skeptical at first, I did some research, but everything appeared legitimate. So, I took the plunge and invested $38,000 worth of USDT, believing I was making the smartest financial move of my life.
For the first few days, everything seemed normal. My account balance on the platform grew, and I was even able to make a small withdrawal to "build trust." But then, the nightmare began. When I tried to withdraw a larger amount, I was hit with endless delays and excuses. Soon, the website vanished, and all communication with the so-called investment firm ceased. That’s when it hit me—I had been scammed.
The feeling of loss was unbearable. $38,000 was not just a number; it was years of hard work and savings. I felt hopeless, until I came across a group called **Mighty Hacker Recovery**. At first, I was hesitant—after all, I had just been scammed. But after reading multiple success stories, I decided to take a leap of faith and reached out to them.
To my greatest amazement, Mighty Hacker Recovery took on my case with professionalism and expertise. They traced the stolen funds, tracked the fraudulent wallets, and within a short period, they recovered my money! Seeing my USDT returned to my wallet felt like a second chance at life.

**Title: How Bitsquery Web Retriever Helps Recover Stolen Bitcoin: A Lifeline for Crypto Theft Victims**
In the ever-expanding world of cryptocurrency, Bitcoin theft is unfortunately becoming more common.

---
### What is Bitsquery Web Retriever?
Bitsquery Web Retriever is a blockchain analysis and asset recovery service dedicated to helping individuals and organizations recover stolen or lost cryptocurrencies, particularly Bitcoin.

---

**Step 1: Submit Your Case**
Victims start by contacting Bitsquery Web Retriever via email or Telegram. You'll need to provide basic details such as:
- The amount and type of cryptocurrency lost
- Wallet addresses involved (yours and the suspected thief’s)
- Any transaction IDs
- A short description of how the theft occurred
**Contact Information**
📧 Email: **bitqueryretrieverhacker@bitquery.co.site**
💬 Telegram ID: **@Bitsquerywebretriever1**
---
**Step 2: Blockchain Forensic Analysis**
Once the information is received, the team launches an in-depth blockchain analysis. Using advanced tracking tools, they follow the flow of your stolen Bitcoin through various wallets and exchanges. Their software identifies movement patterns and attempts to pinpoint where the stolen funds have landed.
---
**Step 3: Recovery Path Strategy**
Based on the analysis, the Bitsquery team develops a strategy to recover the funds. This might involve:
- Working with crypto exchanges to flag and freeze assets
- Collaborating with legal authorities or private investigators
- Deploying retrieval scripts or tools to reclaim access (when possible)

HIRE MUYERN TRUST HACKER TO HELP RECOVER LOST INVESTMENT
I was drawn into a promising crypto investment opportunity, a platform offering a 4-month contract with a 2% monthly withdrawal on a “free margin account.” The idea of steady, guaranteed returns felt secure, and like many others, I believed I was making a wise decision that would help grow my savings. Unfortunately, what seemed like a legitimate chance to profit became a scam. In my eagerness to invest, I trusted the platform completely, even borrowing money from banks to fund my account. I believed this was a smart financial move, one that would pay off in the long run. But as the weeks passed, it became painfully clear that things were not as they seemed. Despite multiple attempts to withdraw my funds, I found that my account was locked, and I was unable to access a single penny. The total amount I had invested—$450,000—was effectively gone. The emotional and financial toll has been devastating. What started as a hopeful investment quickly spiraled into a nightmare. I now face the real possibility of bankruptcy, and it’s been difficult to express the extent of the pain and frustration I’ve gone through. The sense of betrayal and helplessness is overwhelming, and I’m sharing my story to warn others who may be considering similar investments. If you are looking into crypto or any online investment platform, please take the time to do thorough research. There are countless stories online, especially on forums like Reddit, where individuals share their experiences with scams. Platforms promising guaranteed returns or unusually high, consistent payouts should always raise a red flag. Scammers often prey on people’s desire for quick, easy profits, but these platforms rarely, if ever, deliver on their promises. After months of struggle, I found a legitimate recovery service called MUYERN TRUST HACKER. ( Whats app: + 1 (4-4-0) (3-3-5) 0205 ) ( Te le gram: muyerntrusthackertech ) They helped me recover 90% of my lost funds in just two days. While the damage can never be fully undone, I’m deeply grateful for their assistance and hope my story can offer some hope to others who have fallen victim to similar scams. Please learn from my experience. Protect yourself by staying cautious, researching any investment thoroughly, and seeking help from legitimate recovery services like MUYERN TRUST HACKER if you find yourself duped.4 -
The Possibility Of Recovering Scammed Bitcoin Is Real With Help Of Lee Ultimate Hacker
As an electrician, I’ve always prided myself on my hard work and dedication. Unfortunately, I learned the hard way that not all investments are what they seem. I lost over $1,000,000 to fraudulent brokers and so-called account managers who deceived me into trusting them with my money. What began as an opportunity to grow my savings quickly turned into a devastating experience. It all started with a seemingly legitimate investment offer. The brokers made convincing claims, and the initial returns were encouraging, so I decided to invest more. They assured me that the more I invested, the higher my returns would be. I felt confident about the decision and followed their advice, thinking I was making smart financial moves. However, when I tried to withdraw my earnings, things quickly took a turn for the worse. The brokers began requesting additional funds before they would process any withdrawal. At first, I hesitated, but their constant push made me feel like it was a necessary step to access my money. Each time I complied, they would come up with new excuses and demand even more funds. Eventually, when I tried to withdraw everything, they disappeared. All my attempts to contact their customer support went unanswered, and it became clear I had been scammed. The loss was overwhelming, especially as an electrician with a family to support and bills to pay. But I wasn’t ready to give up. I began researching ways to recover my funds and stumbled upon a YouTube video that explained how victims of online scams could get their money back. That video led me to Lee Ultimate Hacker, a service that specializes in helping people who have been scammed. I reached out to them and received a response within hours. They requested all the details of my investment and the communication I had with the fraudulent brokers. I followed their instructions and provided the necessary documentation. To my surprise and relief, Lee Ultimate Hacker was able to successfully recover my entire investment, including the profits I had earned during the time I was involved. Thanks to their expertise, I was able to get my financial security back. This experience has been eye-opening, and I am sharing it now to help others avoid falling into the same trap. If you’re facing withdrawal issues or suspect you’ve been scammed on a trading platform, I highly recommend reaching out to Lee Ultimate Hacker on telegram: L E E U L T I M A T E, or w h @ t s a p p + 1 ( 7 1 5 ) 3 1 4 - 9 2 4 8 & Support @ l e e u l t i m a t e h a c k e r . c o m)
They helped me when I thought all hope was lost, and I’m confident they can do the same for others. Please recovery is possible if fall victim.4 -

Building Fortresses, not Firewalls: Ethical Hacking Meets Software Development
In the digital age, security is no longer an afterthought; it's the bedrock upon which our online world rests. Yet, traditional security measures often resemble fortresses – imposing, but vulnerable to unseen cracks and tunnels. To truly safeguard our systems, we need to think like the enemy, like the nimble figures scaling those walls: ethical hackers.
Enter the exciting realm of DevSecOps, where ethical hacking practices are woven into the very fabric of the software development lifecycle (SDLC). This proactive approach is akin to building castles with security in mind, each brick meticulously laid to withstand even the most cunning siege.
Why Ethical Hacking in SDLC?
Imagine developing a critical piece of software, only to discover a gaping security hole after launch. The damage could be catastrophic, exposing sensitive data and eroding trust. Ethical hacking flips this script. By integrating penetration testing, vulnerability assessments, and threat modeling throughout the SDLC, we proactively hunt for weaknesses before they can be exploited.
Think of it as a friendly sparring match, where the ethical hacker throws their best punches to expose vulnerabilities, allowing the development team to fortify the software's defenses. This constant testing and refining leads to robust, secure systems that can withstand real-world attacks.
Benefits of DevSecOps:
1. Reduced Costs and Risks: Early detection and patching of vulnerabilities are far cheaper than dealing with a full-blown data breach.
2. Improved Software Quality: Security becomes an inherent part of the development process, leading to more reliable and trustworthy software.
3. Enhanced Brand Reputation: Demonstrating a proactive approach to security builds trust with customers and stakeholders.
Putting it into Practice:
Integrating ethical hacking into the SDLC requires a cultural shift. Developers, security professionals, and testers need to work together seamlessly, sharing knowledge and fostering a collaborative environment. Here are some key practices:
1. Threat Modeling: Identify potential threats and attack vectors early in the development process.
2. Static and Dynamic Code Analysis: Use automated tools to detect vulnerabilities in code.
3. Penetration Testing: Simulate real-world attacks to uncover hidden weaknesses.
4. Security Awareness Training: Educate developers and other stakeholders about security best practices.
Tools of the Trade:
A plethora of tools empowers ethical hackers and security professionals in their quest for a more secure digital world. Some popular options include:
1. Kali Linux: A distribution packed with security tools for penetration testing.
2. Burp Suite: A web application security testing platform.
3. Metasploit: A framework for developing and executing exploit code.
4. Wireshark: A network traffic analyzer for identifying suspicious activity.
The Future of Security:
As technology evolves, so too must our security practices. DevSecOps, with its embrace of ethical hacking, is at the forefront of this evolution. By building security into the very fabric of software development, we can create a safer, more resilient digital world for everyone.
Remember, in the ongoing battle against cyber threats, ethical hackers are not the enemy; they are our allies, the architects of digital fortresses that stand strong against the shadows. So, let's embrace DevSecOps, sharpen our ethical hacking skills, and build a future where security is not just an afterthought, but a fundamental principle.
I encourage you to explore the world of DevSecOps and ethical hacking. Whether you're a seasoned developer or just starting your journey, there's always more to learn and contribute. Together, we can build a more secure digital future, one line of code and one vulnerability patch at a time.

Get Back Your Crypto Funds - Recover My Crypto
It's the little things that get you sometimes, isn't it? I was actually pretty hyped with my new Bluetooth speaker, ready to see just how well it would sound and pump up my playlist while finishing some work. So, like any other tech enthusiast, I connected it to my laptop, where, of course, my crypto wallet was open and logged in. Big mistake.
It was a freakish twist of fate that, well, the Bluetooth speaker seemed to have other plans. It began glitching like a broken record, sending my laptop into a frenzy. I tried reconnecting it, and that's when the disaster struck. In some kind of crazy chain of events, I managed to get locked out of my $90,000 Bitcoin wallet. My wallet was still there, but access was completely blocked. As I sat staring at the screen in utter disbelief, my mind wandered to how something so silly could have caused such a huge mess.
Cue the panic. Something this simple, such as a glitch with the speaker, and I don't have access to so much money. The whole thing was just utterly absurd, and I couldn't stop playing the scene over and over in my mind, wishing I'd just have waited until work was done to mess with my new gadget. But it was too late; I was locked out, and the financial chaos was real.
Luckily, I knew where to go for help. The very first words in my mind were LEEULTIMATEHACKER @ A O L . C O M

https : // l e e u l t i m a t e h a c k e r. com I had heard very positive feedback about them regarding their capabilities, and they did not even laugh after several minutes of hearing my story, which, let's face it, sounds utterly ridiculous. Instead, they reassured me that they have seen all kinds of scenarios and can be of assistance with mine. Immediately, I relaxed due to their professionalism. They were very calm, efficient, and started working on my case without wasting even a single second.
In some days, they called me back to intimate me with the great news that my $90,000 was safely restored and my wallet was back in my hands. The feeling of relief which I felt was beyond description, knowing well that my ridiculous Bluetooth speaker disaster was finally over.
I will make sure gadgets and crypto are in two completely different corners: Now I understand that crypto has absolutely nothing to do with gadgets. Thank the heavens, Lee Ultimate Hacker recovered my funds, at the same time teaching me how to be much more cautious in handling wallets this time around. Not getting caught a second time!1
