I suspect the target audience is "whoever will subscribe on Substack" more than someone who has ever written or contemplated writing shellcode. I'm seeing more and more articles like this that focus the prose on some weird subset-of-a-niche aspect of a subject, then end with a set of bullet points for fixing the problem as if this is something one regularly encounters.
