Actually, if you focus on the foot, and speed up the speed at which you make the 6, such that you are in the middle of the transition at the bottom of the rotation, I believe you can inhibit this response effectively.
You have to alter your psychological run burst to be really small, just enough to kick off the 6 with the finger and maintain focus on your foot.
But it took about 3 tries, and now I can do it easily enough...
Curious if others found that...

Amateur Archaeologist And 13-Year-Old Student Discover Trove Tied To Danish King : The Two-Way : NPR
Harald Bluetooth, the famous king who united Denmark.
I always wondered.
[edit]
Ah, and a little more digging on wikipedia verifies this:
The name "Bluetooth" is an Anglicised version of the Scandinavian Blåtand/Blåtann (Old Norse blátǫnn), the epithet of the tenth-century king Harald Bluetooth who united dissonant Danish tribes into a single kingdom. The implication is that Bluetooth unites communications protocols.

Ah, very interesting!

I thought it was named after the snarling grimace you adopt trying to get it to work on Windows?

Clearly that king had been biting on his coins a lot and so ended up having blue-tooth 
It also shows that Test Driven Development is nothing new ...

Hi All,
Today I'm starting to believe I'm living a Dilbert cartoon. There is a thing on Working remotely using sensitive documents (fair enough). There is a policy on using certain bit of licened software (fair enough). There is a policy coming in re: the intranet, follow the specs they want a personal email or phone number ok, but in the confidentiality policy which says don't use personal emails, phone numbers. 
The greatest thing is I am having work on something that is not covered by the rules!

Thomas Edison knew that rules only slow you down.
Well, until they become a (valid) process, then they speed you up again.
But blind rules to follow make no sense. And many of the security policies are blind rules.

They have to be, and must be, because humans are idiots. End of story.

No.
You wrote CYaPass, correct? Why create software like this if people were not idiots? You even created it for idiots (implied).
People...humans...are inherently stupid beyond belief, including myself. We like to think the opposite, but that is not the case.
Thus, security has to be over stated, in order to capture and contain as many possible use cases for idiocy.

I know. I actually agree with you. Just having fun with a round of making fun of bureaucracies.
And you're right also about why I created C'YaPass. Because people just use the same password over and over. And, even C'YaPass is too difficult for most of them. They just don't care.

Our cyber security department (relatively new) is making life rather inconvenient in ridiculous places. My supposition is that they need to appear to be busy on a continuous basis. It must be working - they're department is almost as large as IT (new hiring) whilst real IT has actually shrunk a bit.
They stick there nose in where it doesn't belong (and I'm perfectly willing to slap their nose).
In particular, their work success seems to be involved with how much more work they can give to other people.

Oh to be that senior, also they are off in another part of the UK...

It's not about being senior. I supervise no one. Have no authority over anyone.
I do write very robust code that, in partnership with another developer, basically runs the companies infrastructure and a good part of the business.*
You need to nurture a reputation. You do a good job and do it right the first time. You don't duck responsibilities if you create a bug (gives your word validity for plausible deniability). You also give them the impression, ever so slightly, that you'd pack and go without a blink of an eye.**
* recent attempts by management to outsource worked out "poorly".
** you have enough of a nest egg and fixed income to get by, forever

While I'm ranting, my dog needs a good smack.
We turned over part of the garden, prepped and seeded for lawn.
Go on, guess where Mr Thicko McThickdawg decided he had to bury his bone?

Why don't you order a rake[^] and some grass seed[^]? From Amazon.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

And I thought you would send me Amazon's goon squad...
