Captain's Log, Entry: December 30, 2022

I’ve chosen Visual Studio Code as my new general-purpose IDE + blog/markdown editor.
I passed my GIAC GSLC exam with a 94%. Review is up as well!
I’ve added myself to this list of Cybersecurity Mastodon accounts. Thanks to @cyb_detective@infosec.exchange!
I’m in the top 1% of karma earners on Reddit this year. Woo!
Surpassed 3500 infosec blogs.
This post in r/cybersecurity references two shellsharks resources (Infosec Tools & Designer Vulnerabilities). Pretty cool!
New Years 2023 logo debut (same as last year but ++).

I’ve officially signed up for OffSec’s WEB-300/AWAE/OSWE course via the Learn One bundle.
17 SANS certs… Think I’ll shoot for 20. Maybe I can make the GSE the last one!

Ventura is out, but my old Mac Pro doesn’t support it. So I’m still considering what my next main computer will be. Likely something sporting Apple Silicon.

The Apple Watch Ultra Ocean band is pretty great!
Santa brought me a rice cooker. Game changer.
Been pretty consistent lifting and going to the gym since October, planning on keeping it up in the new year!
