This happened where I work. An inexperienced team was making changes to a shared code base. They made changes to make usernames case insensitive, without thinking about them ready being case sensitive. So if you logged in with user CAT123, you might get cat123's info. And then I was left on the team that had to clean up their mess and find and understand the impact.

I usually move the monitors around, the move my mouse to test it, until I avoid that, as perfectly aligning then with different resolutions doesn't work. But yeah, totally know what you're saying.

That's interesting. Windows 11 is the best multi monitor version of windows ever, in my experience. It "remembers" where apps were last used opens them there. While not perfect, I find it great that it handles more than one multiple monitor setup. I have 3 monitors at home and 2 at the office. I just plug in and they are always in the same alignment. Given how bad it was in previous versions, I'm impressed.

Eventually I figured it out. Thanks for following up. See copy/pasted comment below:

So I was able to fix it after I realized font size changes require a refresh of posts. Disabling use system font size and the refreshing the posts solved the font size issue. I appreciate the invite to Discord, but life gets in the way.

I have not played that one. I'll check out some trailers and add to my dekulist if it looks like something I would enjoy. Thanks for that!

So it's a different concept that you have to wrap your head around for it. I've had more success solving things backwards. On some of the longer puzzles I have a spreadsheet running for the order of things, as I kept doing them in the wrong order. But most puzzles are short enough that isn't required.

The funny thing is that I was stuck on two puzzles and every time I have been stuck the reason is that I didn't think of the concept of rewinding things properly. I was stuck on trying to throw things or drop them perfectly. I've only looked up to solutions so far and really kicked myself for spoiling it. The game does a good job of teaching the techniques, you just have to be savvy enough to use them.

But if you enjoyed Portsl, you're most likely going to enjoy it. Fun puzzles, snarky robot, saving the world. Very inspired by Portal, but it does a good job of being its own thing.

Still working through Entropy Center. I'm working through level 9 at the moment. Also the original Karamari Damacy went on sale, so might start that.

Very interesting. Thanks for correcting my assumption. TIL.

Nike has done a great job with the alternates.

Al Sweigart posts every month or so to the learn programming subreddit for deals on His book atuomate the boring stuff on Udemy. Highly recommended. I think he said his 3rd edition would be done late this year.
