Everyone has something they can't stop themselves from nerding out over - but often it's hard to find people to talk to about it. So go ahead, share your interests, and tell us about them!

There's so much lol. I used to be a security software engineer. But people never fucking listen and will constantly fight you so I just gave up and went back to just software engineering.

At my job before last I told them we needed to enforce HTTPS and they said, but what if someone can't use HTTPS for some reason?

This was an app that held tons of protected health information. I jumped ship as soon as I found another job.

Oh man, an HTTPS certificate should absolutely be required for that. Even aside from hackers, I don't want my ISP to be able to read that stuff! Very disappointing.
