A video that explains how information on a QR codes is stored.
Yeah, they were cool until they became a security risk.
I loved QRs since the first time I learned about them and couldn’t stop thinking on the artistic possibilities they could had, and was really frustrated that nobody, except me and my nerd friends used them. But at that time, you needed to download an special app to use them and the normal ones on android had ads on them (yikes), no idea how it was on iPhone. But then it was implemented by default on phone cameras and it felt great.
They’re replacing the ol’ EAN / UPC barcode on products too starting in 2027. IBN Link
I wrote a qr clock to help me learn GWT. Still running, too.
Used to write software for reading QR Codes, and it was a fascinating process, dealing with increasingly bad customer images. They’re pretty resilient though!

I’m very glad I replaced my auto-open QR code app (At the recommendation of someone here) with one that shows you the preview link…
For anyone unaware, this is porn. Old gay threesome porn. Maybe someone here wants to look at that idk.
Maybe just this once, for old time’s sake.
