So yeah, yesterday I had difficulty sleeping. I couldn’t get proper rest and finally fell asleep around 3 AM. I only slept for about 4 hours and woke up again at 7 AM.
Started my day with the same usual schedule. At 8 AM, I got into reading — but I’m still trying to figure out how to recover my reading list and articles, since I lost everything (and didn’t have a backup) after the OS reinstallation.
There wasn’t any official company work today, so I spent around 1–2 hours testing one of my company’s internal panels.where i used to get a lot of insights. They had degraded my role, so I tried figuring out how to get again admin role but unfortunately i reported them all types of possible bugs that help someone to do privilege escalation.
Also, last night when I couldn’t sleep, I followed up on one of the reports I had submitted to APIsec for one of their products. I got some really great feedback
Later, the CISO had scheduled a meeting with me at the end of the day. I didn’t have an agenda, so I spent an hour preparing tasks from the previous meeting... but in the end, he canceled the meeting.
In the afternoon, the IT guys remotely connected to my laptop to install a security patch on a device that I actually don't use much and they took around 1.5 hr. Took a 1-hour nap afterward to recharge a bit.
In the evening, I went for my daily walk again, listening to my calm songs as usual. I walked 5,116 steps today, bringing my total steps for May to 10,391.
