  22. Reflecting on Day 1 of the HTX CTF Finals here in Singapore.

    I didn't win, but the technical takeaway was clear: Precision is a force multiplier.

    By focusing on a high hit rate rather than just speed, I held 5th place for a good portion of the day. It’s a great reminder that in our field, being precise is a technical skill in itself.

    Looking forward to the Day 2 challenges tomorrow!
