My name is Jake though I usually go by the handle "jbauer" online. I am a
student of computer science with a strong interest in computer security,
networking, and low-level stuff. I enjoy programming, figuring out how systems
-work, and completing hacking challenges when I have/make the time. If you're
-interested, you can find out which tools I use on a daily basis, what operating
-system(s) I like and why, what I'm up to now, and more information on how the
-site operates and the philosophy behind its design using the links at the bottom
-of this page.

-My spare time is usually occupied with learning, programming, gardening, playing
-video games, or getting outside. I also enjoy watching talks from conferences
-and listening to technology podcasts such as [Darknet
-Diaries](https://darknetdiaries.com/) and those from [Jupiter
-Broadcasting](https://www.jupiterbroadcasting.com/) to expose me to new ideas
-and ways of thinking. I try to keep up with the goings on in the Linux community
-by reading [LWN.net](https://lwn.net/) of which I am a subscriber. Additionally,
-I write the occasional blog post expressing my views on various subjects or
-documenting my technological encounters/adventures. Those can be found on [the
