I am currently experiencing the same phenomena. Prior to being educated to code, I could hack until 5AM. Post-school, I can barely toy with a new language. Most side projects seem inadequate or too overwhelming! Even in the workforce, I complete projects in a timely manner with a very meticulous mindset, but they never feel like accomplishments anymore. They are just artifacts. I think one of my issues is I have swayed from the objects that drew me to computing as a hobby. I loved blackhat hacking, socializing in IRC, and gaming on quakeworld. I have Google Glass sitting at home on my desk. I installed the toy REST app and sent a few hello worlds to the device. I have a list of domains waiting to be populated with content and apps. I just don't have the passion anymore. I get a glimpse of it when I get to work on my car. Opening up that terminal just never brings that adrenaline anymore. |

Black hat means that you use your knowledge of computer security to commit crimes. If that's the case, it's not a good idea to express such an idea on an account linked to what I can only assume is your actual name.
I suspect, and I hope for your sake, that you are using the term as a way to describe the entire field of network security, which includes White Hats, Grey Hats, and Black Hats.
