  • I think this might have something to do with how Minecraft treats doors. The item we know as door is actually just the lower half. When placed in the world, the game adds the upper half a tick or so later. With editors, you can place the block “upper half of the door” which remains transparent unless a lower door block is below it. This was commonly used to create “force fields” which restrict moment but are invisible. At some point the barrier block was introduced and this trick became outdated. I assume your question mark block is in fact a upper half of a door. Maybe the block id changed in some version and your current version does not understand it and either removes it from the world or just renders this question mark block.


  • Wikipedia defines it as

    Advocates of vibe coding say that it allows even amateur programmers to produce software without the extensive training and skills required for software engineering.

    Now if you replace some words you see how absolutely bonkers the idea in general is:

    Advocates of aircraft autopilots say that it allows even amateur pilots to fly large airplanes without the extensive training and skills required for commercial pilots.




  • Wow, we gone full circle here. 2FA (the “protocol”, not the application mentioned in the OP) was conceived to increase security by requiring a second factor (not second secret). So we would need the password (knowledge based authentication) and the code generating hardware (possession based authentication). If we stuff all our 2FA secrets into a web service, we efficiently removed the possession factor of the authentication, making it one where two knowledge factors (password for the thing you want to login to and password for the hosted 2FA storage) are sufficient.
