A reddit post in r/mildlyinteresting titled: "I add a layer of paint to this quarter whenever I’m in a meeting". The associated picture shows a rounded conical glob of blueish white paint on top of a yellow kraft paper square, with a paint-riter+ pen behind it, on a desk.

A comment by the author of the post named "nominyomom":

Some information:
  - The coin has been in progress since February 2025.
  - Daily standup is the biggest contributor.
  - Engineering at Big Tech is 90% figuring out what everyone is doing.
  - I’ve emptied 2.75 Markal Paint-Ritter+ pens.
  - I also add colors with Expo and Sharpies but those don’t add much thickness.
  - The paint blob never fully dries, it takes fingerprints very well and sags due to gravity and surface tension
  - If it ever gets misshapen, I add a bunch of the paint, it softens up and surface tension pulls it back into symmetry.
  - The quarter is a State Quarter, but I have forgotten which state.
  - if the meeting is especially useless, I lift it to my nose and take nice big whiffs.

Screenshot of text that says:

Being Innocent Won’t Protect You

This is vital to understand. Surveillance systems and sorting algorithms make mistakes. This is apparent in the fact that we are routinely served advertisements for products that don’t interest us at all. Those mistakes are relatively harmlessβ€”who cares about a poorly targeted ad?β€”but a similar mistake at an immigration hearing can get someone deported.

An authoritarian government doesn’t care. Mistakes are a feature and not a bug of authoritarian surveillance. If ICE targets only people it can go after legally, then everyone knows whether or not they need to fear ICE. If ICE occasionally makes mistakes by arresting Americans and deporting innocents, then everyone has to fear it. This is by design.

Bruce Schneier has a good high-level look at threat-modeling under an authoritarian government. Alas, it’s not amenable to a simple recipe approach, but involves carefully thinking through the tradeoffs […]

@andymoose have you opened a bug report?

Although, bugs also need to be removed sometimes. so maybe open a dust report?

Me: why is everything so dusty?

People who can adult: you have to dust.

Me: what, like annually?

Adults: no, more like weekly.

Me: that can’t be right.
