pluc··on I reverse engineered a board game
Ah see that's the part that was missing. Thanks for clarifying
pluc··on I reverse engineered a board game
That's what I'm saying... nothing was figured out other than it scans a QR code and gets a spotify link, which I can do if you tell me one sentence about the game.

I can also tell you cards are made of plastic without needing extensive scientific analysis? Did I just reverse-engineer matter?

pluc··on I reverse engineered a board game
I don't get it. How is this reverse engineered? Have you found out how the game works? Have you find ways to exploit it? How about redirecting a QR code?

Seems you just discovered the association between QR code and Spotify ID which you could have done by, you know, looking at the QR code or just proxying requests.

Like.. without any tools I can tell you that this game scans a QR code and sends you to a Spotify page. You discovered the same thing by decompiling and decrypting...? What has been discovered here

pluc··on Why your Gmail open rate is 30-40% too high, and how to check your own numbers
There is no accurate way to measure "open rate" because it's a stupid invasive metric. Anyone with half a brain blocks HTML rendering or at the very least remote images in images. The way to use this as intended is to request a read-receipt, and that can be turned off because nobody cares to populate your marketing telemetry. Use a call-to-action that leads to a tracked page that gauges users interest instead and you'll get users who actually might care about your comms.
pluc··on Ubuntu PHP Internal Server Error
Maybe their technical staff can write a nice little essay about it - they do test for it extensively in their application process over actual technical skills.
pluc··on Meta strikes deal with Zuckerberg to protect him from California wealth tax
> Under the deal, Zuckerberg will receive new shares that could be sold to potentially foot a multibillion-dollar tax bill in the event that California passes a one-off billionaire tax.

Sounds like California gets what it wants either way? It's Meta that's getting used as Zuck's wallet.

What a gorgeous piece of art that movie was. Thanks for being a part of it!
