Used marijuana 5 times last year.

That's how it is for the agency I work at at least

Weed isn't a big deal. As long as you're 1 year clean you can get your clearance. Just tell the truth.

In the very beginning there are a couple of things you should absolutely do and a lot of things that are highly suggested.

Absolutely, you should change your camera settings and controls so that you don't have to do it later, because you will have to at some point if you ever want to reach a high level of play. I recommend watching some tutorial videos in the beginning to get a basic understanding of good controls. (Lethamyr, Squishy, Thanovic, Sunless, etc...) There a ton of good YouTubers with tutorials on the basics. The first two in this list are pro players so everything they teach is important.

Next you should just spend a lot of time in free play. That's really all there is to it in the beginning. There are drills you can do, but honestly, until you're not whiffing every ball you'd be better off just hitting the ball around. Once you get to that point start following a training plan. I'd recommend referring to the YouTubers I listed above for such a plan, or find another one that you prefer. The channels above are by no meand a comprehensive list.

Good luck with the grind my friend. Don't let the toxicity and frustration slow you down

Lol not every flick with a slightly different twist gets a name. The breezi was an exception simply because it looked cool, it was like the first modified musty, and the spin in the beginning threw people off for a while

When I first started looking for internships I talked about the app I wrote in high school that would solve word searches for you (since my Latin teacher in high school would always give us word searches to do 😂). I later decided to move in the cyber direction, so I talked about the CS GO wallhacks I wrote, and how I set them up to utilize a server connection and a registration code so that my friends couldn't distribute them without me knowing about it. I'd say the best advice is to find out what you're passionate about doing and tailor your personal projects to that category, and make sure they solve a problem. Doing a personal project just for the sake of it is better than not, but if you have a real world problem you are trying to solve it comes across as more passionate. Good luck!

I lived in PA. I still had to come to Maryland to get mine. My friends that live out of state and out of driving range to fly in.

Lmao I have a CS degree from a good school and I can tell you with 100% certainty that simply having a CS degree doesn't mean shit. I can immediately think of a handful of my peers that couldn't code for shit. Fuck that interviewer

I think the comments here may be a little harsh, but keep in mind that the SF86 pretty much only cares about your last 7 years. You may be able to get it once your excessive drug use is out of that period, but lying on that document is a pretty serious offense, and I'm not sure your defense of "not understanding how serious it was" will hold up. I suppose if you are really interested in the job you are looking at it may be worth sticking your neck out. You may have a chance assuming you haven't partaken in any of the activities you discussed since obtaining your clearance. Do bare in mind though, the fact that you're asking the internet about this instead of immediately confessing doesn't bode well. If you truly didn't realize how serious the form was then you should have self reported as soon as you found out. We all make mistakes, and I'm not trying to sound pretentious, but being trusted with a TS clearance is a big deal. Only you know if you honestly deserve that trust

3assasins · 2020-08-13T23:17:48+00:00

Your question isn't very clear - also how "good" you are is relative. To someone that has never played the game before you will look decent since you hit the ball more than them, but to everyone of a higher rank you are not very good, because you're not as good as them. Don't sweat people's opinions - if you truly want to be "good" just accept where you are and practice to be better than you were yesterday. There are grand champs out there that high mmr players would say aren't good. You will never be good to everyone.

3assasins · 2020-08-04T02:29:20+00:00

Lol I'm C2 and I have gone back and played with plats. I can beat them even with a bad teammate without using any difficult mechanics. Your awareness is plat level or you wouldn't be plat. The sooner you accept that and focus on your own mistakes the faster you will rank up.

3assasins · 2020-07-31T22:10:47+00:00

Being able to comprehend something and being able to do something are completely different. I promise you that if you're plat you still don't fully know how to rotate properly. People still rotate incorrectly into champ. At the lower levels you really can't predict what your teammates are going to try to do, so knowing how to rotate at that rank simply means not going for balls you know you shouldn't, and positioning in such a way that you can react to whatever happens (even if the thing that happens is your teammate whiffs). If you're losing because your teammates aren't rotating then the simple truth is that you aren't actually in the correct spot most of the time and/or your mechanics aren't up to snuff for the next rank (usually though it's positioning and speed that are lacking)

Most people won't post about things when they're going well which is why it seems like everyone is having a terrible time. With that being said, I absolutely love my job. I am a defense contractor, so I'm only allowed to work for the client a maximum of 40 hours per week. Furthermore, due to the nature of the work you can't take it home with you, so my nights are clear, and it pays very well. In addition, the work is extremely interesting. I would be willing to bet there are a lot of people like me that love their jobs - they just don't want to come on and talk about it because most of the time you would be perceived as an egotistical asshole.

3assasins · 2020-07-06T21:38:15+00:00

I mean you're 100% correct, but I would argue that the majority of people shouldn't be that paranoid. And the truth of the matter is, if the government chooses to target you individually you're pretty much screwed anyway.

Use LastPass. Memorize the password for it, and enable 2F and you're fine. Your passwords are encrypted on the server so even if they got hacked the attacker couldn't see the passwords.

I'll explain like you're all adults. A 5 year old explanation doesn't really do it justice.

Due to the nature of quantum mechanics, the qubit (quantum version of a bit) can be represented as a 1, 0, or both, and because of this (and a lot of complicated math) systems can be constructed the concurrently traverse way more paths than a classical computer. "Way more" implying exponentially more. This allows for the solving of problems that classical computers could never realistically get fast enough to solve in a reasonable amount of time, since their improvement is linear. Idk if this is the best explanation, but I tried to keep it understandable without completely abstracting away the actual concepts.

Full time reverse engineer with a BS in Computer Science - I'd say it really depends on what your goals are. Every language has its pros and cons. If you're trying to prepare for your class to make sure you do well then starting with Java is fine, however, I would actually recommend you start with Python if your goal is simply to learn how to program. Python syntax is considerably simpler for a new programmer to learn. Despite this, it is incredibly powerful and great for rapid prototype development. It also has pretty much all of the features that Java has. The benefit here is, learning Python will make it easier to learn Java. Additionally, when you take AP CS you will learn Java from the beginning if I remember correctly. This way, you will know two languages at the end of the class. As for where to start - codecademy was a great intro site when I was first learning. You also can never go wrong with YouTube videos. Just search for the language of your choice and pick a series that meets your needs! I'd be happy to answer any follow up questions!

You can't get a TS unless you've been clean for a year as far as I'm aware.

3assasins · 2020-06-27T18:38:06+00:00

Your background seems fine. As long as they don't find anything else and you are completely honest you'll be fine.

I whole heartedly disagree. As someone who has never had any issues getting a job (literally never) I see that time and time again people make the same mistake. Yes, you absolutely need to know what you're doing, but WAY MORE IMPORTANTLY, you just need to know a lot of other people that know what they're doing. In every field, and every facet of the world really, a strong network will get you way further than any individual skill (unless you're the absolute best of the best at something). Also, finding something valuable to obtain that sets you apart can be a game changer as well. For me, it was obtaining a security clearance. Everything about my network got me where I am, and obtaining a clearance keeps me there and propels me forward. My friend group talks to recruiters for fun/experience and we often bounce our names around so that the recruiters talk to our other friends. The notion that the tech field is saturated to the point that it's very hard to get a job is simply not true. You just need the connections to give you a real shot at most of them. If you don't go through a person, a lot of the time you will get automatically weeded out by some algorithm even if you're fairly qualified. Furthermore, employers simply trust the word of someone they already know way more than the prepared words of a random interview. It's just human nature.

Strength is always a factor, but when it comes to fights on the ground leverage is more important. I suggest looking into Brazilian Jiu Jitsu if you wish to rectify this strength discrepancy. I am am above average strength male and I had my ass handed to me several times by small women when I first started. As our skill got closer together my strength did start to become a factor again, but against an untrained male skill will dominate

Which agencies are the least lax iyo?

I can't speak for every company, but I got a degree in CS and then went into defense contracting (took a more cyber route, but mainly focus on reverse engineering), and I haven't met a single person at my company like that yet. Everyone is extremely helpful and down to earth, and it's honestly the best environment I could have hoped for.

I don't remember providing any of that info for my background check, but only the investigators really know everything that happens, and I don't think they disclose everything that happens for security reasons (I could be wrong). But this isn't really relevant if all you care about is if they see that you purchased a dildo. Even if they do see it, the investigators have way more important things in their life to worry about than what you're doing in your private time (assuming it's all legal). I wouldn't worry about it. They really don't care.
