  • Actually, I think that one at least has some history to it.

    The disk drive was one of the first ways to store information between computer sessions as the first computers didn’t have built in storage. You would create a program, run it, and then when you shut the computer off it was gone. Since the disk drive was used to store programs for later, or “save” them, the icon was born from the physical object.

    Sharing, conversely, doesn’t really have a real world example to base the icon on. Maybe two hands exchanging things? Perhaps two arrows to illustrate the ability for things to go both ways? Maybe a set of interconnected dots to show the connection between things? Any of them could work, so the iconography is less clear.







  • I’ve seen a lot of rulers that actually don’t have a mark at 0 and instead go right to the edge as 0. Typically they are worn down, being made of wood, so the accuracy of the first inch is dubious. To ensure the distance is correct, sliding the ruler down one unit is a good idea. So, my ruler starts at 0 but my measurements start at 1.



  • No, things aren’t alright. Just existing costs too much because we live in a system I feel we have no power to change. I’m desperate, but my efforts never seem to amount to anything. I’m constantly struggling to reassure myself that there is light at the end of the tunnel because right now I can’t see any. My wildest dreams fled long ago and even my humblest hopes are packing to leave. So, no, everything is not alright.

    But enough about me, how are you?

    I would just throw clothes into the washing machine and maybe set it to a more thorough setting. Fabric lined would be a small steam cleaner with some enzyme cleaning spray until the water was clear and the staining was gone.

    I’ve cleaned up too much dog poop to be overly concerned at this point.










  • To set a scene, you awake in the middle of the night because your phone is making noise. Blearily you unlock it, glance at a prompt, and then approve a login and fall back asleep. The intruder now has access to your password manager!

    They attempt to log into your bank and drain your life savings, but despite having your password it sends another prompt to your phone. This time, you wake up enough to realize something is wrong. This time, you deny the prompt.

    The entire second paragraph cannot happen if your MFA is a single factor. Don’t store MFA in your password manager!
