In questi giorni Γ¨ morto Vince Zampella, il creatore di Call of Duty. Per quanto disprezzi Call of Duty e tutto ciΓ² che rappresenta, mi dispiace.
Una volta, ai tempi delle riviste cartacee, sono stato a Santa Monica per una preview di Modern Warfare 2. Quel giorno lui e Jason West ci hanno portato a pranzo. Visto che sono passati 17 anni, forse posso finalmente raccontare la storia. (Che, per la cronaca, non lo dipinge certo male)
La volete? Story time?
"I have heard that the thoughts you think most often, and strongest, are etched on the inside of your skull," the necromancer's assistant said. "Is that true?"
"It is," the necromancer said. "Though I rarely try to read them."
"Will you read mine, when I'm dead?"
"Do you want me to?"
"Yes."

People tend to see the worst:
In 1963, the USPS launched ZIP Codes and 2 letter state abbreviations, sparking huge backlash. Conservatives called it a step toward a "communist" style of government reducing people down to numbers.
These changes were made to accommodate the limitations of IBM mainframes at the time, which could only handle 23 chars for city, state, & zip code.
But it wasn't a communist plot! Navigating change is hard

Father of two daughters. Started sitting down to pee when they were toddlers so if they walked in they'd see how it was done. 10 years later still doing it; so much more comfortable; less drips and no mess. Men; ignore the propaganda, sit to pee.
