Ever since I can remember, I’ve gone by the handle ident. For a while, I also went by Nicon, Lord_Nicon after my favourite movie Hackers (1995), though I spelt it wrong—not on purpose, lol. My journey with programming began back in 1999 on the old MSN chat network. I stumbled upon the fascinating world of bots when I saw someone get banned and instantly return to a channel—curiosity piqued, I dove in! That led me to create my first website as a kid, and believe it or not, it’s still up! Check it out for a trip down memory lane: MSN Bot World.
When I'm not coding or getting lost in HTTP requests and P/Invoke, I'm spending time with my amazing partner, who has always supported me on this journey. They're the reason I’m able to keep pushing forward, and I couldn’t do it without them!
VB.NET isn’t just my main language—it’s been a lifeline through tough times, and I’m proud to call it my home base. I love diving into the nitty-gritty of website manipulation with HTTP requests, and I have an unusual fascination with processes, tokens, and P/Invoke. Yep, I know—it’s weird, but it’s my happy place! 😄
I’m always up for chatting with like-minded folks. You can reach me here:

Also, just a heads-up: I sometimes run into issues with GPG signing, so there may be quirks related to that.
