Corey convenes SLOP8815 because nobody stopped them.

They are a software engineer whose working interest is getting programs to run in places that had no business hosting them. This started as a curiosity, became a habit, and is now, apparently, a course. They know more of the WASIX syscall surface than is strictly healthy, maintain patches to a shell they did not write, and once spent six weeks establishing that something was possible after being told it wasn’t.

They are a patient supervisor of other people’s rabbit holes. If you come to a session they’re at, certain your target cannot work, they will ask what you measured. Then they will ask again, more precisely. Eventually one of you will be right.
