Hi all,

I had to push some code live today to fix something, and that brought with it a couple of new things like if you have two-factor authentication (2FA/MFA) enabled, you got automatically logged out and it is now required to log in. If you don't, you can set it up if you want (you don't have to.)

This also means that if you have 2FA enabled, you will not be able to use 3P clients using your username and password anymore. You should be able to use API keys in most cases, but there's some nuance to that (and tbh, I just am not precisely sure what clients anybody even uses.)

Please do comment if you're seeing anything weird, as per usual, and we'll work on it. Thank you!

I found it via

matociquala's newsletter, and I'll link to it with the description she used: "The Job" is about a woman with serious self-image issues who takes a contract to survey an alien ocean for corporate exploitation, wearing the body of a bioengineered whale.

It evokes my surprising (to me) love of Subnautica and also The Mountain in the Sea by Ray Nayler, except I like it much, much better than the Nayler book.

Anyway. If you read it and want to talk about it, lemme know. :)

The title is a reference to Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None, one of two Christie mysteries I've actually read, and the one where everyone's on a remote island, unable to leave, getting killed off one by one. The math joke took me longer to figure out. I think I only got it after I'd finished.

But neither are required to read and enjoy this novella about a woman who is invited to a remote Canadian island to attend the first ever SarahCon, where hundreds of Sarah Pinskers from across the multiverse have gathered to meet, attend panels, and mark the achievement of the Sarah who invented cross-dimensional travel.

You can read it for free in Uncanny Magazine, Issue 15: And Then There Were (N-One).

Contains: references to addiction.
