    Freshly graduated electrical engineer here. But also a lot into computer sciences. Good to know things can get technical here too.

    First post here, btw.

    Don't be a stranger :icon_bigg!

    YuriCore; Thank you!

    Tyoforest; It's quite satisfying to find all these people interested in technology. I don't meet many gay men that are tech-savvy. Also congratulations on your degree and welcome to EC!

    Here's your position-independent, bad-byte free welcome: (*hug*)

    section .text
    global _start:

    _start:
    xor eax, eax
    cdq
    inc eax
    mov ebx, eax
    inc eax
    mul ax
    push 0x0d0a216e
    push 0x6e696c62
    push 0x6f47202c
    push 0x7974696e
    push 0x756d6d6f
    push 0x63206568
    push 0x74206f74
    push 0x20656d6f
    push 0x636c6557
    mov ecx, esp
    mov dl, 0x24
    int 0x80
    mov al, 1
    xor bl, bl
    int 0x80

    By the way, you should probably apply for Keybase! :3

    It's x86 assembly for writing "Welcome to the community, Goblinn!\r\n" to stdout (only runs on 32-bit Linux). (*hug*)

    Keybase is an interesting new startup for a public cryptographic directory. They seem to have a lot of positions for engineers in New York. They might have had something in NYC actually. Just something I found while I was job searching ^_^

    Aww that's sweet. I took intro to Assembly Language for a semester and found it quite difficult!

    I'll definitely look into Keybase and see what kind of jobs are out there. Thank you!

    Hey there. I'm not a programmer, I'm more of a math kind of guy, but I am learning to code right now. I'm barley learning javascript and python. It's fun. Whoops, I forgot! Welcome to EC! :slight_smile:

    The most challenging to learn was C# since it provides more hand holding than C/C++.
