And the era of SMS, where you had 160 letters and had to be creative to push as much information into them to avoid paying for a second SMS.

As long as the maniac with his model planes isn't around that should be safe.

Good question. I recall myself using the force field trick in 2013-14 so back then it was possible to place half doors in editors and the game kept them. But that hardly narrows it down.

I think this might have something to do with how Minecraft treats doors. The item we know as door is actually just the lower half. When placed in the world, the game adds the upper half a tick or so later. With editors, you can place the block "upper half of the door" which remains transparent unless a lower door block is below it. This was commonly used to create "force fields" which restrict moment but are invisible. At some point the barrier block was introduced and this trick became outdated. I assume your question mark block is in fact a upper half of a door. Maybe the block id changed in some version and your current version does not understand it and either removes it from the world or just renders this question mark block.

I assume OP would want to send them upstate to live on a farm or terminate the pregnancy before they are born.

This sounds like Golden Eye with extra steps.

Wikipedia defines it as

Advocates of vibe coding say that it allows even amateur programmers to produce software without the extensive training and skills required for software engineering.

Now if you replace some words you see how absolutely bonkers the idea in general is:

Advocates of aircraft autopilots say that it allows even amateur pilots to fly large airplanes without the extensive training and skills required for commercial pilots.

That's why I start my dangerous queries with a broken first word like ELETE FROM table... and do a proofread before adding the D. Saves you from annoying mistakes either by stupidity or fat fingering the enter key.
