Here’s a recent episode from the “99 percent invisible” design podcast about the Brannock device, its inventor, and the current state of the company. 99percentinvisible.org/…/100-objects-011-brannock…

Depending on your facing, presumably “the East side of my ribs hurt”.

I am “the guy” at my kids’ schools. I love it. When they need a last minute volunteer for something, they know how to reach me.
- Comment on I just released my first fully free Android game: Wandering Alchemist (GPS walking game) 2 weeks ago:
I seemed not to have ingredients near me at first, and I got stuck with no clue what to do. I uninstalled and reinstalled the game to get the instructions to come up again, and made two potions. Is there a way to get back to the help/tutorial?

This looks awesome! Downloaded. I already play Walkscape, which is like RuneScape but works by counting steps. This will be a fun addition

Maybe don’t play this game...https://neal.fun/password-game/
- Comment on Should've just picked a better password 2 weeks ago:
That’s so annoying!
I’ve also seen a login form where the username field also has the password type, so my password manager pastes the password in both!
- Comment on Should've just picked a better password 2 weeks ago:
I appreciate your comment anyway! I didn’t know passwords would be hashed to a consistent length - I can see how that would be more secure.
I don’t think in the cases that I mentioned, that the hash of my entered/saved/extralong password was being compared to the stored hash they had on file, I think what happened is the input field validation was changed and would no longer allow a password that was valid under their previous rules.
- Comment on Should've just picked a better password 2 weeks ago:
I just hate it when a program or website has a MAXIMUM password length, and despise even more when the password requirements/limits aren’t shown on the page. “Failed to update password” WHY!? WHY DID IT FAIL!?
I use a password manager and I’ve twice seen a website not let me in with my saved credentials, and on resetting my account discovering that the maximum password length is now shorter than the password I have been using for months. If you are going to change the password constraints, fine, but you could allow login once and immediately force a password change.

Actually that sounds familiar. Maybe he stuttered too?

He can narrate my life any day.
I saw an interview with him somewhere in which he described coming to this voice. He took diction classes in college, and developed his cadence by consciously fillers like “uh…” with pauses, which gives him gravitas.
I wonder what he sounds like at home.

So did the narrator of that story, but it was just lady bugs.

I made it through some bad stuff, but ejected at some point. The last arc I remember they visited something like a waystation and had to kill someone? Memory is fuzzy. Don’t recall what made me drop it.
Shame, because the art was cool and I liked the world. Artist 100% a creep.

Generations of kids have wondered if zebras are black with white stripes or white with black stripes.

It really sucks to see the national guard everywhere, huge trump portraits hanging from buildings, and marching white supremacists.

I was there without any idea that there was a special botanical event. Just wanted to see some plants.
That corpse flower is HUGE! The different tools is it bloomed 48 hours before we got there and that the smell lasted 12 hours or less. We were lucky to catch it in its three days of bloom, especially since apparently that plane was blooming for the first time after 18 years.

If there’s a Latino market near you, try Peruvian Inka Kola. Tastes the same to me.

I answered an ad like this posted by Elvis Barrett back in Nova Scotia. Now I’m a broken man on a Halifax pier, the last of Barrett’s privateers.
I don’t know that I’d recommend the career.

For anyone wanting to know more about these books, Reading Smut is a side-project podcast by the hosts of Reading Glasses. It’s really interesting, with lots of thoughtful guests and often odd books. One of the first episodes covered a book about a door that comes to life and lusts after the woman who lives inside.
