Scott Hanselman 👸🏽🐝🌮I am SHOCKED that QR Codes actually happened. I would have *never* bet on this ridiculous tech, but as soon as all phones built it into the camera app, then restaurants decided that a QR code pointing to a freaking PDF in Dropbox was a valid menu, it was over. The avalanche had begun, and it was too late for the pebbles to vote.
Mark Demeny@shanselman Covid was literally the only reason this fundamentally unfriendly (and security-risky) format ever gained traction. Who knows, if this thing had hit before every phone had a camera, we might all be walking around with Cuecats. 😬

@shanselman @mdemeny I should have kept that idiotic thing, but my wife (correctly) considered it clutter. I had two of those things.
I have a drawer full of cables I could have kept that thing in.

herchenroder@sluggard @shanselman @mdemeny oh wow I have one of those. My grandma was throwing it out in the early 2000s and I thought it would be cool to keep. Been in a junk cable drawer for 20 years!
