A TV report said that a Dutch Roll is a side to side motion caused by application of the pedals that cause the nose of the plane to move in a figure 8 pattern horizontally. They said the passengers might not notice this type of motion but it would freak out the pilots if they were not actively controlling the pedals.

So what is Dutch about that? (I guess that is what the OP really was curious about.)

Shruggs: and Google says:
What is a "Dutch roll"? "Dutch roll" is a name given to the combination of a yawing motion when the tail slides and the plane rocks from wingtip to wingtip. It is said to mimic the movement of a Dutch ice skater.

I take issue with the word "roll". I think it should be called the Dutch Yaw, because from what the (terribly uninformative) youtube / newscast(er) described, I believe it was a yaw and in no way a roll.
If I hear a jet-liner rolled I'm thinking serious stuff. But this was a yaw, like turning to the right and back to the left.
You think maybe they were trying to sensationalize the story a bit?
No, no, not the news.

The way I heard the explanation of the Dutch Roll is that it also involves the ailerons, so yes, there is a roll component to the motion.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

A Dutch Roll is actually a roll that occurs as a result of a yaw. If you're flying an airplane that has swept wings, and yaw is induced, then it can happen. I've never heard of it being a danger to the flight of an airliner.
When a yaw does occur, it causes the plane to roll as though you were controlling the ailerons. A yaw can change the rate of airflow over each wing differently. Hence, the wing that encounters an increased airflow generates more lift. The wing with a lower airflow produces less lift. Thus, a roll occurs.
And yes, the news of this event is WAY overhyped.

At least the word list is much shorter! Wouldn't take much to modify my Wordle solver for it...

Yeah, but I can't count that high!

A month and a half ago, when my code-signing certificate was expiring, I found that a simple renewal was not possible...the rules had changed and there were only 2 choices.
0): depend on their hosted service to manage certs/signing
1): get an eToken h/w dongle for a hefty fee
IIUC, option 0 meant uploading/downloading which isn't attractive, especially if signing is part of an existing automated deployment process, so I went with option 1.
The little blue usb device arrived a few weeks ago, and has been sitting on my desk with an instructive little business card daring me to try it...'To set up and start using your Code Signing token, please go to http://theirwebsite...blah, blah'. (kinda funny they use http)
Well, today is the day. If I follow the instructions carefully, it should go smoothly. 
At step 4, it reminded me that I needed that one-time-available-only password from step 2.  What password?  There was an initialization code, but no password. Oh well, there's an option for when you don't know the password. (rabbit hole) Something I did caused an unhandled exception and the tool crashed. When I bring it back up, I'm still unable to change the password per the instructions. (if you don't know the token password, you it's useless) Finally, I called for support.
I got the cert reissued and went through the process again, but this time actually knowing the correct password and got through the process of installing the certificate. But how do I know that it works?
Google finds me an obscure link to a Japanese site where a utility can be downloaded. I download and start it. There's an option to sign/timestamp an executable...and it works the first time! 
Now that I know it works, I can move on the get it integrated with signcode in the chain. I already have some sample code from @RickZeeland to get me started. Thanks again Rick!  It's been a busy Friday so far...now, on to more little victories! Have a great weekend!

That subject line.
Please never use it ever again, especially on a site where a bunch of aging software developers hang out.

Want to go down a rabbit hole?
I have an EV certificate from what I believe to be the same company.
Run the following command on any file that you have signed with your certificate:
>signtool verify filename.exe I'm curious if it displays the same behavior for you as it does for me.
