I wonder if his garage RAID has drunken-girl-at-party protection now. (He had a party in ~2006 where a drunken friend (female, startup founder herself) started pulling drive trays out of the RAID because it made the lights blink more interestingly.)

Someone asked on LJ "where can I find someone who is an expert at both file system recovery and body disposal" -- Hans Reiser being the obvious answer. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Reiser)

So Ryan, when do we get to see your usesthis.com interview? That'd be so much more interesting (to the average HNer) than some froofy font designer.

I'm comparatively boring now -- spent 2004-2010 in Iraq/Afghanistan/Africa/Asia, and then started working on a security startup in the Bay Area in 2011.

I'm thinking about renting an office on Blueseed (if they have something ready in the next couple years).

Ryan does all his hacking on an offshore defense platform, obviously.

(What froofy font designer are you referring to?)

This reminds me, I should get to my usesthis interview. /lazy

I hear he's locked in a bank vault underneath NORAD inside Cheyenne Mountain.

You'd be another good hacker to spotlight. Maybe HN needs its own usesthis segments.

I think someone already had a go at doing that, but be my guest! The site's source is up on Github etc.

I've kinda wanted to do a 360" of my home office, but I think I mostly just do Starcraft there.

Yes. Yes you should. :p
