Yeah, that Trump quote is going to forever haunt him. You can’t make a comment like that and then claim you didn’t know anything, or that his Epstein interaction was just “to party” or whatever. Also Epstein is the guy who introduced Trump to Melania, and they had sex on Epstein’s plane lol.
Your generic “barcode” for something like a UPC is considered a 1D barcode and uses things like the spacing of the lines and thickness to encode data. Although some 1D barcodes can detect the barcode is damaged they cannot do error recovery.
Your 2D barcodes, like QR or Data Matrix, store data in both directions and depending on format can have varying levels of error correction (duplicate data) built into the barcode. They also obviously can take up less room and hold the same or more data as well. You do need a scanner that can do 2D barcodes though, as not all scanners will read them.
