I really like Discover for the reasons you stated. It was my first CS experience where you called a number and a person just answered...imagine that. Similarly, I detest Capital One for a whole host of reasons. Just last month I was lookin

Then I'm immediately curious if they issue randomized plates containing these things, like '88'. It feels like they would, but maybe I'm wrong. But it would be hilarious if they did.

You worked there and don't really know much about it. How in the world would Google expect anyone else to have known about it? I personally don't remember such a thing ever existing. So assuming they did try it, I'd say it

Not trying to be a jerk, but why is that interesting? Am I missing something more than all odd numbers end in 1, and primes by their nature cannot be even(except 2, as you mentioned).

Yes! Deepseek does this to me all the time. I had 20 something files I wanted it to check and change something. The first 5 or so it did, then the sixth it rightly said everything is correct moving on. It said that for the rest of the 20

Nice! Never knew that. I wish more companies with popular sites did this. I'm sure it cost them about no money nor time to just shovel it off like this.

I'm not sure how younger folks would feel seeing this...perhaps that it's ugly, less useful, sparse. And they'd be a bit right. But for me this was a hit of pure nostalgia, flipping item to item. Almost like looking through

Same. I will say that for me, dash-to-dock or dash-to-panel is a must. I believe Ubuntu just built it in as default. At this point I don't know why they didn't make it an option or built in plugin.

I found myself thinking the same thing - perhaps came from a bigger/more established company. Reminded me of the PRD/ERD process. And that's not necessarily bad. But from my experience, the two types look at each other like

Seconded. I had heard the rumors and thought they were overblown. No, it's really that bad. It's actually baffling, and I'm confused how such a thing was ever greenlit much less released.

Bitcoin is not treated like a currency anymore, given recent trends. It's acted upon more like an equity. In short, it's seemed to tend to follow the stock market. Whatever that means to you, YMMV.

That reminds me of the WinPhone days. The Moto Q was an awesome device built like a brick. Samsung knocked it off with the BlackJack, which itself was an obvious copy/knock on Blackberry. It felt like such a downgrade - cheap plastic
