"Secret Hitler" is a social deduction game (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secret_Hitler). You can find various games of it on YouTube.

The reasoning is that 600 is 60x10 which is conflating base 60 and base 10 numbering systems. You would expect something like 3600 (60x60), or even (given things like our units of time) 720 (60x12). The latter is because 12 is a factor of 60 and is easier to work with in that number system/base.

Keyboard shortcuts for those menu items are what most people will learn -- save, print, cut, copy, and paste will be the common ones that a lot of people will know.

I'd be willing to bet that professional typists and people who spend the majority of their day typing (email, word, IDEs/text editors, etc.) are the ones who will know more keyboard shortcuts and navigation, especially for the things they do repeatedly.

I would say that it's true that the keyboard shortcuts for those items are the ones most likely for people to learn, but not true that most people will learn them.

I've spent 15 years in (tech support/programming for) academia, working with genuinely very smart people who use computers every day of their life, many of whom are actively looking for better ways to use those computers in their teaching and research, and 9/10 of them go to the Edit menu for Copy and Paste every. single. time.

In some cases you may need the keyboard accessibility.

- Your mouse/trackpad breaks or isn't recognized?

- The right mouse button for your trackpad isn't working for some reason (e.g. you spilled a drink on it). It should still be possible to use the context menu keyboard button to bring up the context menu.

- Your hands are on the keyboard (typing a document, email, code, etc.) and it slows you down to move to the mouse/trackpad to perform an operation such as copying/pasting text or bringing up the spell checker context menu actions so you want to do those with the keyboard to keep yourself in the flow.

Most often you'll learn keyboard shortcuts/interactions for your workflow then expand out as and when you need them. Sure, knowing all shortcuts and interactions is fairly limited, but the majority of people will know how to cut/copy/paste with the keyboard as those are common operations.

My go to when implementing custom controls that can't be achieved in native HTML is the ARIA Patterns (https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/patterns/) site. That has clear documentation on the roles, states, and keyboard interactions for common UI controls. I've used it for things like a search bar with an autocomplete dropdown to get the keyboard interaction right.

That's why you don't just use colour for identification. E.g. include a warning icon next to a button/element in addition to using a warning colour.

Nor just shape, so a warning icon + text message.

and, as is being increasingly forgotten, SOUND QUES. Seriously, I get they can be annoying but they make navigating and interacting with things so much easier if you can't see them. Sure, TTS exists but is far more inefficient and objectively less helpful in these kinds of circumstances

Another great example of increasing accessibility while reducing usability.

Will they send him ... TO SPAAACE?!

Command and Conquer was almost certainly my first exposure to him. I guess it's time to go replay Red Alert 3 and enjoy those cutscenes all over again.

A regular yearly replay is in order for me, too. Already done with SC2... just SC1/WC3/DoW(2)/RA2(mental/flippedmissions/etc)/RA3(uprising)/HOMM3/etc/etc/etc. Ah well.

The full backstory of this clip is a great read:

ASM is still used in some areas, such as:

1. function trampolines, such as in libraries like ATL (Microsoft's COM template library);

2. hand-optimized encoders/decoders for things like ffmpeg;

3. niche applications such as Ben Eater's 6502 breadboard computer (using a modified WozMon and Microsoft BASIC);

4. reading ASM output from C/C++ code in things like the GodBolt site for performance comparisons/analysis;

5. reverse engineering old DOS games;

6. people working on things like compilers (generating optimized assembly), JIT engines, or other code generation -- though this will typically be machine code, possibly with assembly instruction comments;

and other performance critical places where assembly can speed up that part of the code.

Absolutely, by 1% of developers. So analogy would be that those 1% would understand the code fully in the coming years.

I had my GMail account locked for 1-2 years because I accessed it from my parents house (in the same country but in a different county) while on holiday. That was because they detected the account being used from a different IP address.

Using VPNs can also trip this.

Interesting, I only use VPNs and have never had an issue other than constant "prove that it is you" secondary authentication.
