‘Member GMail Goggles?

Once upon a time, GMail had a functionality called Gmail Goggleswhich was a tool to prevent you from sending emails while drunk§ .

If you sent a late night email, GMail would ask you to solve some math questions (64 * 34 or similar), which either stumped you because you were drunk, or gave you enough forced slow down to regret your decision to send the email§.

So yeah, I’d like that but for SSH. Not because I SSH under influence, but because “activate your brain when you do X” is a generally useful thing.

Still, thinking of this made me realize how far today’s Google is from the company that could introduce a functionality like that§.

I miss old Google.
