I am now notoriously fast at speedrunning the various airlines and ticketing sites.

Wonder if that could be a YouTube Channel

Supply md5 hash of first name + last name + seed when buying, computed manually by yourself.

Upon arrival at the venue you show photo id and a sheet of DIN A4 paper containing the hash and seed, and the Ticket Man will verify.

Side joke: One of the German ticket sites, maybe eventim, stated on the PDF that it must be printed on DIN A4 paper.

We had maximum word counts

I see it the other way, I can do whatever creative and fun stuff I like, and the agent does the boring debugging or finishing up my loose ends.

Which countries are you already blocking?

Had to check my settings. Russia, Belarus, Zimbabwe, and Ethiopia. Have any further suggestions?

I also found it super gross but after a few weeks of tough endurance, the chemical taste subsided and disappeared. It comes back after a week or so without Diet Coke.

But yeah I could hardly swallow it in the beginning.

For me it was a persistence thing. Keep drinking and you don't really notice it any more. If anything sugared drinks now feel overly sticky or caramel-like to me. I can no longer enjoy non-diet coke.

Soldier on!

I don't see why not

Because they don’t remember anything?

I'm already having lots of success letting the agent loose on the arduino or rpi and figuring out all the annoying i2c bits and having me try different pinout and wiring combos until it works. Even with a human in the loop agents are useful right now for electronics. On one occasion I did give it a camera feed so it could check for itself if the LEDs were doing as expected.

I remember my friend Peter, in 1999, on campus networking with 100 Mbit internet saying: I think this will be enough for many years to come. And he was kinda right — 100 Mbit is still "almost good enough" 27 years later for internet access.
