    Make a fake local host IP with a DNS that reads the Hacker News. Create a web page with your company logo and a fake article about a massive crack to the Datacenter. Circulate it in an email to devops. Best I got right now. Not sure it would actually work.

    A rubber hand and red food colouring (80ml) put both in the toilet cistern and wait for someone to flush.

    It's technical, but it does have a very favorable effort/payoff ratio.

    Make a Visual Studio extension that makes a particular character, '}' say, transparent 😂
