> this kind of bad faith reading of these articles
Speaking of bad faith, how about some benefit of the doubt?
My comment was not meant to be critical, but helpful for others who might have that same nagging question in the back of their mind while they read the article: "But what are CTFs"?
It might be obvious to you, but I couldn't tell if CTFs were some RE tool, a part or category of ELFs, or some other binary format (and I do indeed know a thing or two about Linux/Engineering/Electricity)
Probably a better comment could have been "Great overview, very helpful, but I had to google CTFs: Capture the Flag".
Let me know if that would have set off any other "hn trope" triggers for you....Sheesh
