Hello Hackers!
This month we are joined by Ashley Gay who will be presenting
her talk “Ashley’s Crash Course to Computing”:
> A talk in which Ashley attempts to explain low level
function of computers, and its implications on cybersecurity,
including logic gates, transistors, pipelines, as well as the
technical reasons why you may not be getting good performance
in games, and what actually bottlenecks computing. This talk
will also cover a history of ROM.
> Bio: Hi, my name is Ashley Gay and I use She/Her
pronouns. I’m an Offensive Security Engineer specializing in
low level hardware.
Meeting will be on Discord. If you need an invite, look no

Talk starts at 6:12 PM U.S. Central, but feel free to hop in
early and chat.
