Art, at its core, is an attempt to communicate. It’s an expression, a reflection of humanity’s innermost thoughts, desires, struggles, and dreams. But what exactly is art? And more importantly, who gets to decide?

In a world where every brand is vying for your attention, it’s no surprise that strange, offbeat, and downright weird branding has started to rise above the noise.

It’s that feeling of being both impressed and skeptical that has become the hallmark of modern marketing. In a world where brand promises are often made with all the charm of a snake oil salesman, it begs the question: how much of what brands claim is actually true?

A man with Dissociative Identity Disorder suspects his wife is having an affair with one of his personalities. Paul offers absurdly helpful advice.

More like your friend’s dad trying to use TikTok. They were slightly awkward and trying really, really hard. They might as well have worn a sign saying, “Like me, please, please, please just … LIKE ME,” which, according to Newton's law of Cloying Brandism, is never going to work. 

Why should a marketing director or project lead care? Because public space is rehearsal space. The phrases we hurl on the platform ride with us into Monday stand‑ups, Slack threads, and client calls.

In conversations, this creates a cycle where reason and logic are often drowned out by emotional responses. People aren’t just debating issues—they’re defending their identity.

We are, however, in the middle of something truly exciting—a technological revolution that’s going to reshape how we interact with data, how we secure information, and how we approach problems we thought were unsolvable.

We’ve all been there—caught in an emotion that words simply can't capture. It’s that moment when you feel so much, but trying to explain it sounds like a mix of half-finished thoughts and awkward hand gestures.

Here’s the issue, though: If quantum computing is really going to unlock all this crazy potential for faster, more secure encryption, it also means we’ve got to rethink everything.

In this section, we’re going to explore how quantum computers could affect web security at its core and how we can prepare for the inevitable quantum shift.

Now, if you’ve been reading ThoughtLab’s five-part series on quantum computing, you’ll have learned that this kind of supercomputing can open us to new worlds, ideas, technologies, and advancements never before imagined. It truly is a life changer.

Alright, now that we've covered the potential dangers of quantum computing to our beloved encryption methods, it’s time to look on the brighter side: quantum-safe encryption.

Quantum computing is indeed going to change the game when it comes to user authentication. So, let’s break it down and see how.
