Marketing Consultant: No, King Condiment, you can’t put red in red on an ad. They won’t see it. They’ll wonder why you’re selling a gun to shoot at food.

The King: But it’s great advertising!

Marketing Consultant: No, that’s not a great marketing ad.

The King: But they can still use red for ketchup right?

Marketing Consultant: Of course. And your instructions can tell them which is for which.

The King: It’s so confusing!

Marketing Consultant: It is. And if you had hired us before manufacturing millions of these we could have told you about using another base color with red and yellow grips and triggers. But you didn’t and so here we are.

What’s crazy is that I loved the steam world titles (quest and build were ok).

But I didn’t even know Heist 2 came out. I’ve already wishlisted it for later.

Looks like a doable design for 3d printing. Assuming you don’t mind having plastic digging into your feet.

Looks like they actually do make some of these weird designs. Hilarious.

The hassle and delay is part of how it works. If there was a seamless catch all then it wouldn’t be feasible to make it secure.

Having a second physical factor, as much as it can be a hassle, is much better than any single factor.

Your password can be breached, brute forced, bypassed if there’s an issue somewhere.

Your biometrics can’t be changed so anything that breaks them (such as the breach of finger prints in databases, etc) makes them moot.

A single physical token can be stolen and/or potentially cloned by some attack in physical proximity (or breach of an upstream certificate authority)

But doing multiple of those at the same time. That’s inordinately much harder to do.

I will say the point/gist of the article is a good one. The variety of types some used here and others used there does make it a hassle to try to wrangle all the various accounts/logins. Especially in their corporate and managed deployment which isn’t saving passwords and has a explicit expiration of credential cache (all good things)

You sir, what’s your name?

“Hammer… Jackson Hammer.”

[Scribbles]
Ham…mer… that’s with two M’s?

“Yes… why?”

Mr. Hammer, here’s your citation for destroying the bench. You can call this number here to inquire about court dates and fines.

Or praying the space ship flies true.

I remember there was an Easter egg but I can’t recall if it was related to no disc and then loading an audio cd or something else. You’d have a small space ship flying around and towards and away from the screen almost like a screensaver.

It’s been almost 30 years though so I’m a little hazy on the details.

It’s bugging me that I can’t find it online anywhere.

I’m looking forward to it. Just worried that it’ll be as short as Links Awakening

A great channel for topics like this.

This video goes into the expansion of spacetime as well as cover how internally those forces don’t affect local spacetime because of the mass/spacetime curvature.

Space DOES NOT Expand Everywhere

Although I have to agree with the top comment regarding this being my favorite channel I don’t understand. But the more I watch it the more I start to get a sense of a lot of it and I actually am understanding some of it

And yeah, we don’t know what, if there’s anything, it’s expanding into.

What’s that noise? I’m sure I heard something.

As you command

Some kind of activity tracking like a Fitbit right?

You could actually see the internal layout of the base from the paths the thing recorded via GPS points.

Cat: this is a nice place and I like you. I want to make sure you’re eating.

Here, take this

What a mess… sounds like the devs got burned by various Unicode edge cases RTL, etc

Oof. That sounds horrible

Is it because of the lower case Latin æ since it’s technically one character even if two bytes?

Sounds like it’s actually using XSLT or some kind of content validation. Which to be honest sounds like a good practice.

It’s not a waste of time… it’s a waste of space. But it does allow you to “enforce” some schema. Which, very few people use that way and so, as a data store using JSON works better.

Or… we could go back to old school records where you store structs with certain defined lengths in a file.

You know what? XML isn’t looking so bad now.

If you want to break the AI ask instead what regex you should use to parse HTML.

Does make it easier to isolate vocals I guess

I HAVE PEOPLE SKILLS!!!

Besides. Somebody has to convert customer needs into the diagram. Account for what they’re not saying, etc.

That’s the real essential skill in software dev, not spitting out lines of code.
