@ryanc :drgn_nom_blobcat: They're blobcats!

@mattly I read a short story about a criminal holding a computers files hostage in the 00s… it wasn’t encryption but instead much more… social?

I remember thinking it was a bit absurd: why not fool the computer into holding itself hostage? I was… 12…13 at the time.

@lanodan This is mostly an artifact of the fact that Google doesn't have good git repo management internally from what I can tell.

There's a reason the joke for "how do I contribute to Chromium" is "well, the easiest path is to become a Google employee."

I do know someone who did precisely that: Became a Google employee simply to shepherd a change through code review that had been outstanding for two years, get it merged and committed, and then **left** Google to go back to the literal sheep herding they had been doing previously as a full time job.

FUCK YOU, COMP SCI!

How does it work?
If you can get the same executable to run on two machines

@danluu I once lived in an Apartment 420. This caused so many systems to reject me, including the payment system for the apartment complex I lived in.

The absolute worst was any sort of banking institution or KYC restricted company. Insurance companies? No problem we don’t care if you live on mars. But fucking Fidelity Investments? I had to have someone *fucking video chat* me to prove that I lived at an apartment 420.

This was made worse by my use of a GVoice number as my typical phone number, which shows up as a voip number in a data center in Wherever the hell California.

@lanodan Anyone who tells me that there's no ip-rated phones with removable batteries that aren't bulky as hell I will now shove this at.
