For anyone wondering, some possible dog names have survived from cuneiform sources.
On tiny dog figurines found buried under a palace in Nineveh, Iraq are inscriptions that seem to be names.

It's basically perfect.

I got a Google email saying, “If you don't activate 2-step verification within [date] on the Admin account, we will lock you out of it.” OK, activate it. "No" Why? "Activate it from the user first." Ok, go to the user and activate it. "No". Why? Activate it as Admin first. The Google Death Loop.

I’m pretty sure this is a decision from someone who has never reported, discussed, or fixed any bug
When it comes to using AI for doing video game QA, my long-standing belief is that gen AI doesn't actually reduce work; it just moves it somewhere else in the stack. You are taking something that people are good at doing (QA testing) and making it an upstream engineering problem. No labor is saved.
