I need you to know it was really hard not to do The Bit in response to this š
A while back, my old friend Brennan Lee Mulligan made a great video about this for a mental health organization my friend started. I felt a shameful sense of recognition when I watched it. youtu.be/2-iWyqhx9Xk?...

As you say, a balance
I don't think a company should really try to trim letters on their TLD to make their menu QR codes less dense. But, setting things up so there's not a long asset path to encode would be Very Good.
very short TLDs are incredibly expensive, and for a company you'd want a longer, more descriptive TLD often anyway (within limits). Using redirects, though, is bad from a security perspective (there's no chance for the user to detect a QR code has been hijacked)
Ah see itās the showing them your phone as youāre walking out that isnāt very streamlined. Itās fine obviously it works but it could be better
could read from ABA to indicate when a table has cleared payment, etc. *if all that stuff exists* I haven't seen it at the restaurants using QR pay here on Oahu
party are currently leaving. Or the party that's leaving can hold up their phone to show the completed transaction. There's totally room for a better experience, like servers could get linked to their restaurants ABA account on their phones, integrated table systems
especially that links to individual tables, such that a server can see at a glance which table(s) have paid their checks, and which are outstanding. So again, as I've used QR payment here, someone at the door needs to scan completed transactions and figure out which corresponds to which
At a restaurant with many tables, presumably there is a single payee account that is receiving the funds from ABA App. *as far as I know/have seen* there is not an ability to give all of your servers a read only view of the ABA transactions,
(that's the github hosted copy of github.com/lyqht/mini-qr that I like to use for code generation easily without ads and subscriptions and stuff)
literally no good reason, it was a default on mini-qr-code-generator.vercel.app that I didn't clear
That's fine (in the example above, certainly there's a lot of the URL that could be removed with smarter placement in the server's URL-space), but I also don't want companies using URL shorteners or QR code URL services.
mate, I've used the QR payment systems in real life, I just said that the payment flow is a bit rough (and to clarify, rougher at larger restaurants than small vendors for sure) in the "providing feedback that the payment was correctly made" sense. I'm sure it'll get worked out
One thing about the COVID-era that I find particularly irritating: Americans referring to shots/injections/immunizations as "jabs."
That scales poorly to actual sit-down restaurants, alas.
Plenty of places are using it well enough, now, but that was some rough shit.
My canonical first memory of using a QR menu was just after pandemic at a place where the cell data signal was terrible and the URL didn't work right on the restaurant's wifi for some stupid reason. So I had to use the backup paper menus.
I've used QR to pay and it's the most awkward transaction flow, it's actually bonkers. Do I...hold up the web browser on my phone to the server to show I paid with QR? Do they go check their Venmo/payment app to verify?
I can't find a good tool that shows all the extra parameters inherent to a QR code like error correction level, but that visually appears to have a medium EC level. As an example, here's that URL with low EC and high EC. I don't mind the longer URLs but I wish they used high/highest EC more often.

Hegseth: the US had authority to conduct this strike, read theory The theory in question:
kinda shocked they didn't pull out this old banger
No one knows exactly what was on the Venezuelan boat that was struck by the US military, but the fact that the strike was okayed by the presidentās son suggests that there was no cocaine aboard.

Over the years I have learned that if there is a clever little pocket in a jacket or a backpack or something usually you can find something very important to put in there so you can then completely forget about the pocket and wonder where the important thing went for the rest of your life.

Iāve had an ongoing conversation with @paulandstorm.bsky.social (among others) about how hard it is to write a song that has to be a hit āin-universe.ā That is, it has to be so good the characters/listeners react in the way the story needs them to. K-pop Demon Hunters does it 8 times.
