Why would those things count more or less than other things? It seems more like a list of things you think are neat but trying to guess what a resume-reader might think is neat seems like a game with very poor returns.

Well, those things fit the job I posted: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18358038

The common feature is low-level experience. Somebody should be comfortable with assembly and related things.

It's true that not all security jobs are the same of course, so there will be plenty of places wanting other stuff, but I don't know about those.

Ah that makes sense but then those things would be useful when applying for your specific job rather than things that would be useful when looking to make a specialization switch and are wondering whether certifications are useful.
