It is from a time when we were used to remember phone numbers, and where we shared our phone numbers to keep in touch (calls, sms). ICQ directly picked on that and it was just another „phone number“.
Unfortunately I only remember the first half of mine after so many years. In the age of smartphones, at least my brain degenerated to not be able to recall more than a handful of important phone numbers.
Playing around with a hex based game myself, the bookmark to the Hexagonal Grid is a constant companion over the years. It was updated slightly over the years with some visual cues. Amazing presentation, and so great to learn.
If it goes to the direction of Microsoft Copilot, then you can check out the recent announcement. Microsoft currently estimates that 30/user/month is a good list price to get „ChatGPT with all your business context“ to your employees.
When downloading Berkeley Mono, you can choose some configurations and I love the slashed 7 (as well as zero). Something feels off to me with the line but overall it’s fun to have in a font.
And in some/many jurisdictions, your ISP is more regulated by your local government (also in regards to data protection) than cloudflare who has no obligation to you.
In parallel, there is a quite different point of view and after the last two dramas (Safe Harbor, Privacy Shield), the outcome is quite predictable in my opinion.
> The part of the cookie law that’s dumb is that it’s too narrowly scoped and should apply to all tracking technologies and techniques, for whichever purposes and vendors are or aren’t okay with the user.
A recent definition of the German authorities clarifies that with „cookies“, they don’t interpret it narrowly as the specific browser technology but any kind of beacon or mechanism for tracking[0]:
> Gemeint ist damit beispielsweise der Einsatz von Cookies und anderen Technologien wie LocalStorage, Web Storage, das Auslesen von Werbe- und Geräte-IDs, Seriennummern, aber auch der Einsatz von ETags oder TLS-Session-IDs zum Zwecke des Trackings, Fingerprinting (z.B. durch das Auslesen von installierten Schriften oder Anwendungen) und vieles mehr. Der Einfachheit halber wird das im Folgenden i.d.R. unter dem verkürzenden Begriff „Cookies“ zusammengefasst.
They name as explicit examples not only cookies but LocalStorage, Web Storage, reading of any kind of serial numbers, ETags, TLS Session IDs (if used for tracking), and any other method for fingerprinting such as font profiling.
