# Notes by Alisher Ataev

- [Setting up product analytics at TVBET](https://alisher.ataev.net/notes/tvbet-product-analytics): How I set up product analytics at TVBET: get the events tracked, get people reading the numbers, then build product on them. Use case: product analytics in iGaming. 4 Nov 2026.
- [The job interview that tried to install malware on my Mac](https://alisher.ataev.net/notes/fake-interview-malware): A recruiter booked me for a Product Manager (Web3) interview and the meeting link was malware. It matches a North Korean playbook. I took it apart on an isolated, firewalled VM: the fake password prompt, the string cipher, the network client and the IOCs, plus the similar playbook that hit Binance. Use case: security research on a suspected DPRK-linked macOS infostealer. 4 Nov 2026.
