Do you have a video of each game?

The article is dated in 2019, and the wayback machina has a version saved in 2020 [1] but ChatGPT was launched in 2022.

Thanks, good to know that I'm wrong!

If you see AI everywhere you are most likely wrong.

I bought a Samsung notebook in ~2008. No crapware! Nice and small, it survived long beyond the guaranty date.

My cellphone decided to die last month. It was near retirement, but still working until it didn't. I bought a Samsung phone. First it asked twice if I wanted to share all my life with Google (using some dark patterns) and then it asked twice if I wanted to share all my life with Samsung (using more dark patterns). (After that, I installed WhatsApp, so I'm not sure I bothered.)

Next the phone offered to install the app from my carrier, TikTok and a ¿third? app-store. I didn't want them so in the screen with the offer I disabled the first and the other two were disabled by default. Anyway, I got TikTok and the other app for some reason! (I uninstalled them inmediately.)

I still get random notifications, like complaining that I'm using the phone too much. Or a notification that they upgraded something, restarted the phone and all apps notifications were disabled until I unlock it. (Lucky, I didn't miss any important urgent message.)


I quit buying Samsung when my phone rebooted into a forced update while I was using it with a customer and then fucking bricked itself.

Not to mention a new notification to accept the new Samsung terms and conditions every two weeks.


Do you have some technical post, like photos of the servers room?

I guess the ceremony was programed for 2021, but the winner was anounced in 2020. (Like the Nobel, not like the Oscar.)

Information about this prize: https://awm-math.org/awards/awm-birman-research-prize/

"Nomination Period: April 1 through May 15 of an even numbered year. The prize will be awarded the January after nominations close, which falls in an odd year."

See for example the dates on the various announcement notices as given in the notes in the Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joan_%26_Joseph_Birman_Researc...

(Note also that 2020 may have been unusual because pandemic.)


Many of my friends live abroad. We started a weekly Zoom meeting during Covid-19 lockdown. Now we have a WhatsApp group too. Does that change the classification from plain friends to close friends?

Oh god flashback, I remember the zoom calls, and people acting like they didn’t know how zoom worked 10 months into it or that the host can mute anyone that doesn’t know how to mute themselves

I opted out of the extended family ones and the social ones

I wonder if they’re still doing that, I’d rather watch paint dry, which I did for a few months in San Francisco


> I'd rather watch paint dry, which I did for a few months in San Francisco

did it dry in the end?


I stopped paying attention and did something entrepreneurial then left

Why does it have a few "[Image to be generated]"?
