Where do I even start? How about the beginning!

Even before I started playing Eve Online in 2008 I have always been into website design and administration of servers (full stack dev). Coming into Eve Online, discovering the API, as well as the various 3rd party tools that had been created I felt right in place. I started working with the eve-kill folks and improved the killboard and kept it from imploding in on itself. I also began creating other sites as well as my own killboard and have since been maintained and improved upon that killboard: zkillboard.com. The website has enjoyed an average of 100k-150k distinct users per month for well over a decade!

All of this translates into vastly improving my skillsets in various programming languages (PHP, JavaScript, etc.) which improved my professional life as well. These improvements pushed me further to get an MBA in Information Technology which in turn has provided excellent new job opportunities .

In summary, Eve Online has had a massive butterfly effect on my life from personal relationships (friendship is the best ship), stress management, professional relationships, education, and working knowledge of mixing various technologies. Thank you CCP for a fun game and the unexpected side effect of continuous self improvement.

I came across these 3 Oracles bashing a POCO. Since I didn't have my main (Squizz) nearby at the moment I decided to directly engage. I fully expected to explode under their combined DPS. Instead, it turned out to be a boring fight! They never fought back nor reacted in any way...

It was an easy and fun way to make 100m ISK from loot though!

(ignore the Heron, that happened later and is unrelated)

It isn't a big kill, and it isn't a lot of valuable loot, but it is my first killmail where EVERYTHING dropped. I can thank the higher drop rates from the Crimson Harvest for that! The loot fairy smiled upon me just this once.
