Shirt idea: a >100 line C program, with a single syntax error hidden somewhere. There is no indication that you should be looking for it.
If the person you are talking to finds it and points it out, you can trust them.
@grainloom we gave out shirts like that for people who passed the NOP cert test but it was assembly and they were real Microsoft vulns.
@grainloom write your basic C data structures and algorithms to make use of them. Start with a linked list implementation. Compile it, then use gdb to trace through it and free version of ida to take notes. That's the best way to learn imo.
@grainloom if you're a student, nab a cheap copy of binary ninja. That will work to learn also
@Fuego is it worth buying stg like that instead of just using stg free like Radare? Especially if I don't plan to seriously code much assembly / do much RE?
@grainloom I learned with objdump and gdb ;)
@Fuego Tbh that sounds better, but I'm dumb and don't (yet) know assembly.
I guess it'd be a good way to find people to learn from?
