- Swatch of colours with the following accompanying text: "I designed the 12-bit rainbow palette for use in my data visualisations. It consists of twelve colours chosen with consideration for how we perceive hue, chroma, and luminance" "The palette uses a 12-bit colour depth, so each colour requires only four characters when specified as a hexadecimal colour code in a CSS or SVG file" (remote)

ppl are needlessly freaking out at the periodic retrenchment happening in tech right now:
reductions announced:
Microsoft: 5%
Google/Alphabet: 6%
FB/Instagrm/WhatsApp: 13%"On average, every year, a company will experience 18% turnover... can expect on average to lose 6% of its staff because of reduction in force or terminating them due to poor performance...

oh here's one: when they were developing Dragon Quest 2, they finished the game and then realized it was harder than intended. They started rebalancing the game but were only able to finish the first continent before they had to ship.
So you know, if you wanna use a game genie to make the end game less grindy, that's in line with their original plans

Yikes. Behold the power of brute stupidity as a bunch of bros try to build a walking mechanical spider to ride. Every step is a model of poor planning.

I found (and reported) this issue in Bitwarden all the way back in 2018 (https://cure53.de/pentest-report_bitwarden.pdf), and it was, as is too often the case, downplayed right up until a blog post makes a big deal out of it, in this case five years later. Sigh.

I finished Dragon Quest Treasures over the weekend. Solid B+? Cute setting, not super groundbreaking. The roguelite elements could have been developed a bit more. I'd play a sequel. Would be a good deal at $40 if you care about Dragon Quest, $20 if you just want an action rpg

It's great to see memory safety getting the full airing.
While we're addressing old wounds that many had abandoned hope of healing, y'all should consider Apple's monopoly on mobile and how Cupertino uses its power to keep the web from competing with native.
This too can be fixed.
