If so, then hopefully before the midterms, to give voters something to think about.

I made a typeface, it's called Flexflex ๐Ÿ” 

I've been working on this project on-and-off for many months. Very happy to finally release it!

Flexflex is a typeface that responds to spatial requirements rather than imposing them. Built on a modular system, each letter can fit inside any given rectangular container and transforms continuously if its ratio changes. In theory, it's infinitely flexible.

For more information and interactive demos, see the website: ronikaufman.github.io/flexflex

This industry has been prioritizing "developer velocity" - whatever that means - over everything else for ages, and "everything else" has basically always included security, user protection and data safety; all an afterthought if they get a thought at all. Are sensible default security settings that aren't wide open read-all really that difficult, really? Are we just that lazy?

The irony is that the basic GDPR training makes clear that this is an illegal approach.

Some of the other things that get an afterthought from this crowd if they get a thought at all include "the law" and "the idea of informed consent".

Ah the funny thing is, making your developers sit through the yearly basic GDPR training seems to a corporate standard nowadays.

As the GDPR dies not really change the good thing is that you can fast skip through all the videos and just select the correct answers on the idiotic mini quizzes.

So in the sense of CYA they expect their developers to do data security and privacy first design. Just that it would not cost any money or time.

itโ€™s โ€œjust anotherโ€ type of technical debt, none of which ever get prioritized.

Since you all seemed to like the Roman numeral thing, perhaps you would like some more watch trivia in the form of a 'magic trick'?

Go to your search engine of choice and do an image search for: wrist watch.

Every [wellโ€ฆ almost every!] analogue dial watch displayed back to you in the results will show the same time as my watch shows right now, as I write thisโ€ . ๐Ÿง™๐Ÿช„
