Latest source of outrage on the Italians in Seattle group: this appalling piece- i really want it to be satire, but it doesn’t appear so 🤦🏻‍♂️
Most of those names are absurd and caused us to recoil in horror at the thought anyone could take this seriously.

"by the end of the trip, I was already speaking basic fluent Italian, which was quickly forgotten after leaving"

@aaronpk nice. I had a fun conversation this week with my manager/editor about the word "glitch." Curious, how do you define it?

I've never thought about it much, I suppose "a minor or brief error"

Ok this is slightly insane. OpenType (the common font format) actually supports simple scripts inside the font for complex characters and such. So a guy WROTE AN ENTIRE GAME INSIDE A FONT called Fontemon that you play by typing letters on the keyboard. https://www.coderelay.io/fontemon.html#player

If you ever wonder why security is so hard, just remember that fonts are so complicated that someone programmed an entire game into one.

Looks like the opening of a Dr Who episode. Soon you will be assimilated into the 'net and have your body upgraded by the Cybermen to fight the Daleks but then you hack your way out using a snippet of code from high school saving the world.

I'm being overly simplistic, youtube is just TV for me, I don't use it as a social network.

But even here or insta, I'm very careful with who I follow or engage with. So many liers and trolls around and the internet has given everyone a voice. Gotta be careful what you listen to

I think it's a lot different approaching YouTube from the point of view of someone who makes videos on YouTube. In that case the comments are one of the only ways we have to interact with the people watching our videos.

Not to sound arrogant, but when 1 people out of the >300k people who watched the video comments that, I don't think it's the video 😅 but it's always good to reflect, I agree with that.

I usually delete those, but sometimes I’ll mess with them and say something like, “congratulations, you just made everyone skip the first 2 steps because you weren’t paying attention and thought you were being clever.”
