Notch is heavily dissociated with Minecraft (in fact, recently joined a new studio so he has much bigger fish to fry), Jeb is currently in Mojang so he probably quite literally is not allowed to, Mollstam is very much not online, so that pretty much leaves Dinnerbone who is the only one of that group who has little-to-no legal obligations and actually circulates the internet.

      No, "f around and find out" isn't a need. It's simply a human impulse. You guys should try controlling it sometime.....it's called impulse control and is actually good for you. Poor impulse control is usually actually considered a symptom of certain mental illnesses and various neurodivergencies, not some wonderful thing people should indulge in. I speak from experience when I say I would not wish poor impulse control on anyone. You usually end up getting yourself into trouble at some point in your life. Good grief, people.

    As a computer tech, I can agree that confidentiality is way more important than you think. I worked as IT assistant in a university for like 6 months, now I know how to make a card that opens any door, I have a company win10 key that has 14000 uses, I know all 5 admin passwords for all schools passwords, I even almost got to keep a hdd that I had to copy to a ssd to upgrade the accountants computer, but then I had to format it.
    All due respect dealing with spicy data and knowledge is quite a fun mental challenge. I could give/pass on things away for my friends there, but I didn't. And that's responsibility. Now imagine you are a small growing company that uses the same password for almost everything. Yeah, that ain't good, unless you're a black hat... it's serious.

      I don't actually think he is. On one hand, he tells us not to treat every lock as a challenge, and that "You shouldn't be breaking into things not meant for you." On the other though, he fails (or the video fails to demonstrate) addressing the literal challenge dangled in front of people by swapping the files with one intentionally meant to be cracked open.
      For the purpose you mentioned in your last sentence alone, I feel discredits the idea that, "this should be illegal" as was alluded to in previous videos. A lot of game preservation is often done by entering these gray areas of law.
      Maybe I just ascribe to a different philosophy on security, but if you accidentally leak a file or secret. The only real thing you can do after that is minimize damage that results of this secret or file being leaked. As incorporated as the internet has become, it's often still the wild-west. People will do with files as they please, and that includes cracking password protected archives.

      I mean, I've worked at companies and because I was told and updated on previous situations, I had a lot of knowledge on it, even though I wasn't actively there. Dinnerbone probably had the same thing. It was a small team back then, and even now, small teams working on something talk to each other about past events or things all the time. Not even just for game development. It's happened at all but one of the jobs I've worked over the years, and at every single school and club I've been in, except the club I had created. People tell stories, and since it hasn't been a huge amount of time, and since there's probably some form of documentation in a file or old notes somewhere, Dinnerbone still knows about everything. He also could be just acting as the contact on behalf of not just himself, but other devs. Like they all communicated and were able to compile knowledge to answer a question and since the interview was written discord messages, he could rewrite from outside notes or messages instead of having to say it out loud.

Autism Speaks, while not officially classified as one, IS a hate group. It spreads horrific misinformation and blatant lies about Autism/ASD, including making a commercial about a mom who said she wanted to drive herself and her autistic child off a cliff because it's "so hard to deal with", promoting the "superhero/superpowers" mentality, at one point was associated with the "bleach curea autism" lie, and is associated with the "vaccines cause autism" lie.

      I'm guessing that by that, he means something like "not being as public online". The way most people are "online" but don't have a social media presence where they're talking with thousands of people constantly. Like, probably a private Twitter and a Discord that's only in a few small friend group servers, where close friends and family can contact him, but generally not any random guy who knows nothing about him.
      People might've gotten into contact with him for the QNA via one of those people who still can contact him online hearing about the mystery and asking him personally, which caused him to do the QNA to try and shut down the mystery permanently.

I suggested the player to have a salt gun, and his face lit up. He said "A salt gun!" and looked up towards someone off-screen. Evidently he didn't get a response back, and went back to programming and forgot all about it. It stuck with me though.

    I doubt this exactly why they used S3, but at that same time I used S3 myself as there was a Firefox extension that made uploading and downloading to it simple, fast, and easy, plus no content filtering categories used at work would block access to it...

    Honestly, I felt like this was the case from the start. People tend to love having a challenge that gets solved collectively rather than facing the challenge alone. We're social creatures anyway, so when we collaborate on anything with complete strangers by our side, there's this synchronicity that occurs and it gives some people a dopamine rush from actively working on a solution to a perceived challenge. The problem comes when people confuse that rush or drive they get coming from their desire to know the solution instead of it coming from just the input they have on finding a solution to a supposed problem or anomaly. Dinnerbone is right when he says people take things too far without thinking of the most likely answer to their question.

      You tell stories and explain stuff. Especially on small teams. It's happened at all but one job and all schools I've been to. Even if I wasn't there, I could tell you exactly what happened surrounding a few specific events because it's communicated, documented, etc. Something like this would absolutely be shared in a small dev team, even with new employees.

      Dinnerbone was one of Bukkit (alternate Minecraft server with plugin support) developers. He mentions updating Bukkit live at minecon, not the game itself. So it's very likely he had insider info before getting officially hired, especially when Mojang was a small indie company at that time.

    i mean if an archive is public and the contents are speculated to be interesting, people will want to break into it. I don't really think that's entitlement as much as it is just curiosity. although I guess if people are harassing and demanding that Mojang employees give them the password that is very entitled and bad behavior

    Realistically, back when I downloaded the folder ages ago I didn't really care was in it - I just felt the game would eventually blow up (gods was I right), and it was just cool having a piece of Minecraft's history on my computer. Sucks that people think they are entitled to know everything about the folder, or that they _have_ to know the password.
    It was obvious what was in it. It was so close to 1.0's size, and quite literally labeled as what it was.. so even all the way back then I thought that's.. just what it was. The newest version to be shown off at Minecon with some extra PR or behind the scenes stuff to explain the larger file size.. low and behold, I was right. LOL
    It's like Dinnerbone said, not everything is a mystery or an ARG. Sometimes you just need to take things at face value; why would the Mojang devs lie about a decade old folder? There's no need to break every lock, and I imagine you could get in massive trouble doing that to the wrong company. Hopefully now that Dinnerbone's done this QnA, people will leave him alone.
