Of course I had a good relationship, I provided a good bit of leeway before I left, dumped all my information/code/docs/etc onto the team, never had an issue with anyone and did good work.

Then you should be fine. Just have confidence that you've learned and improved since the last time you met them.

Putty or die
I hopy you all update your PuTTY, because some serious security update dropped:
These features are new in 0.71 (released 2019-03-16):

  • Security fixes found by an EU-funded bug bounty programme:
    • a remotely triggerable memory overwrite in RSA key exchange, which can occur before host key verification
    • potential recycling of random numbers used in cryptography
    • on Windows, hijacking by a malicious help file in the same directory as the executable
    • on Unix, remotely triggerable buffer overflow in any kind of server-to-client forwarding
    • multiple denial-of-service attacks that can be triggered by writing to the terminal
  • Other security enhancements: major rewrite of the crypto code to remove cache and timing side channels

Well Raytheon was gonna pay for school so....

Haven't got the written offer yet but I was told it's coming. They basically said right from the start they wanted me to start immediately

Back in uefi bios too so can I get a hell yeah for that

And they asked 0 tech questions because I already worked there
