when karl pressed the button to send another one, he didn't notice any indication it had sent. so he pressed it again. this time he realized it was his visual derealization or fnd, a self-diagnosed problem where he doesn't process things in his visual field. a new code had been sent! he went to his text messages, and there were now codes from two different phone numbers, both arriving at the same time. one from 415 488 8273, and one from 415 488 8399. are these both github? maybe? i don't know! one of them will be the latest one that github might accept this time. karl was slowed by paranoia that he could be experiencing a phishing attack. he went to enter the later-listed code into github to try to log in again. hum, one of these numbers has a github code from 2023 in its text history, and the other one has never been used before. where is the one i just received a few minutes ago? oh, it came from a _third_ number, from 213 263 3354 so i have about a hundred github codes from 213 263 3354 starting may 2023 i have 1 github code from 415 488 8273 on 18:24 today and i have 2 github codes from 415 488 8399, one on july 30th 2023, and one today at 1824. karl went to enter the latest-received code from 415 488 8399.
