Y'all know “yak shaving”, right?
Imagine a scenario where there's a “proper” way to do a thing, every step documented, tested and signed off – and there's also a way to do the same thing which is swift, effective, and will probably hurt.
I propose this be known as "yak waxing".

I just spent an hour making a video to support a bug report in the tool that I was trying to use to capture a screenshot of the original bug that was stopping me from doing my work.
How's your day going?

Otters are more than just adorable—a recent study revealed they’re driving a whopping $3.2 million in economic impact and job opportunities! 📚💰

I made a tool to do this indirectly back when facebook decided to penalise link previews from popular video sites. It turns out non-criminals won't pay for such services so we shelved it.

Before that there were no credits. Companies would keep devs anomymous to prevent them from building up a portfolio and leaving. If you look for it there are indexes of easter egg credits in older games. Anyway I suspect there was some similar mechanism then too.

A picture of a lego minifig hand next to a drawing that shows a yellow hand with two sets of four fingers opposite each other, with no thumbs, to match the shape of a lego hand.

yes! thus will you be,

to rot amongst the bones of the dead.
then, my beauty, say to the worms who will
