There's a popular security website called thehackernews, i used to read it in school(-10y). occasionally I'd get results from hn in searches, I mostly skipped the site entirely because meh what would a site that's designed like that would even have.

around the same time, i randomly visited some startupfair here locally and made friends w some folks, then one guy asked if i read hackernews, i said yea yea ofc. (not the one he was asking about)

later that night, i was wondering why that guy asked me about hackernews he was not even into security. So i looked up hn, and since that night, this site keeps on giving.
