This resume is far from a little silliness. It punched through silliness and came out the other side, making you question wtf the creator is thinking. Are they sabotaging their own job application intentionally? Are they so deep into the pony stuff that they think it's normal?

I'm not young enough to know what "cap" and "no cap" mean

... yet

Papa triste

I'd be concerned if you could see it

Maybe it's a myth, but it sure sounds plausible. The software that checks the "Windows 9" substring doesn't even have to exist for this to be reason they chose to skip to version 10 — they just had to be concerned that it might exist.

Sure, maybe there's no C function that returns the string, but there's a ver command. It would be trivial to shell out to the command. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ver_(command)

This doesn't prove anything, but there are a TON of examples of code that checks for the substring. It's not hard to imagine that code written circa 2000 would not be future proof. https://sourcegraph.com/search?q=context:global+%22%5C%22windows+9%5C%22%22&patternType=keyword&sm=0

Haha agreed, if we're talking about kilobytes of missing data brute forcing is intractable.

There may be structure to exploit in the data format. E.g. if you're recovering missing content from a book written in English, you can probably get away with enumerating only printable ASCII and 90% of the letters will be lowercase.

But practically, I am unconvinced because the information density is pretty high on the kinds of things people like to torrent.

Fax it, scan it, and shred it, and baby you got a stew going

Only 70s kids will get this

Sonic looks pregnant in the first game. Oh, that must be the baby in the sequel.

Did you know my grandfather was an alien? That makes me 1/4 alien and it's the reason I have x-ray eyes.
