  • I have 7.00 signal on HackerOne (the highest it can be), I've never filed a report that was closed as not applicable or spam, and I consistently report highs and critical severity issues which make up just over 70% of my reports.Yet I still find it next to impossible to get issues resolved.I'm a software engineer / tech bro by trade, and hacking…

  • H1 has probably one of the most incompetent series of CEO's in SV startup history, pretty staggering how poorly the business is run
