Jen GentlemanHow QR codes are made:
I wish I knew who created this - I've tried to find out but it seems like this gif gets passed around a lot (and since it's a gif I dont think reverse image lookups work)
Nath
@roipoussiere According to giphy it seems to be someone named Sam Ono that created it

kurtsh@JenMsft I KNEW IT. π€£
richardwild@JenMsft but, you know, really fast
Simon Bisson@JenMsft As opposed to the other way, where you start with a block of pixels and knock them out with a ball...
Quenby
synlogic@JenMsft this checks out
Scarlet Ferret Bookshop π΅πΈCan confirm.
This is why it takes me so long to add new books to Scarlet Ferret. The QR Code link to read the sample takes me weeks!
@JenMsft What's also funny is, this is like the worst game of Tetris ever played

@JenMsft good to know that every time i'm scanning a QR code it's someone's elaborate Fuck Up
Martin EscardoHilarious.
π§DaveNullπ§ β£οΈpResident Evilβ£@JenMsft Sh**, from now on, I can't unsee it π
aliss@mildsunrise is this true
pheo@JenMsft qrtetris?
Feoh@JenMsft That's a killer idea right there for some indie developer :)
Build your own QR code with a game like that... And then surf it to see where it takes you or what message it decodes :)
Simon ZerafaWould make for an interesting game. Can you make a valid QR code? ππ€·ββοΈ

Vronimus Geisterschloss@JenMsft Can I do this for a living please π
Spitfire@JenMsft anyone else playing the a-type music in their head while watching this? can't be the only one, can I? :D

Mark Harris@JenMsft Huh, and here I thought it was when a mommy barcode and a daddy barcode love each other very much, but were taking acid at the time.
Marcel Gitlab ππ€ππ€@JenMsft how fool I am to have believed it was generated by a Conway's game of life pattern.
Suburban Druid@JenMsft I snort-laughed when I saw this!
SomeGadgetGuy@JenMsft I'm DYING to clear that board. I know I could do it. Been training on Tetris my whole life for this moment!
Jay π@JenMsft As far as I can tell, this was made by @[email protected] / @[email protected]:

davidvedvick@JenMsft I want this game
@JenMsft But pieces keep disappearing, so it's reminding me more of Attitude Problem Tetris. ("You meant to do that, right?")
Mr. Bruno 
@JenMsft looks like one of my games 
diaeter@JenMsft That's why they never show solid lines ;)

mossweaver@JenMsft i was hoping there'd be enough data to read :P
Aral Balkan@JenMsft Well give away all our secrets, why donβt cha? :)
Druid π΄σ §σ ’σ ·σ ¬σ ³σ Ώ@JenMsft I didn't just watch this for too many cycles without realising. Nope, not me. π
Nick Francesco@JenMsft This made me laugh WAY too hard.
Fellows@JenMsft that looks like a tremendous amount of work to make one. I almost feel bad now for never scanning them
demofox@JenMsft this is why you never see a fully black horizontal row in QR codes, I had no idea!
