New schedule
Recently I sent a feedback request to part of the audience. Based on the response, I decided to reduce the number of newsletter I sent.
From now you'll get new issue on Mondays and Thursdays. Hope it will be less disturbing for you, more free time for me :)
Let me know what do you think by replying to this email!
PS. Every feedback is very valuable for me, so if you have one, hit Reply. ;)

Meta storing passwords in plaintext is like hiding your house key under the welcome mat labeled "NOT A KEY." $101 million fine? Maybe they can pay it off in exposure bucks! Honestly, who knew they were so retro in 2024?

Spotify is back after a Sunday morning outage! For a few hours, users were left in silence, forced to listen to their own thoughtsโa terrifying experience. Thanks, Spotify, for restoring order and silencing our inner monologues!

Switzerland and Italy are redrawing their border because melting glaciers around the Matterhorn are playing an impromptu game of musical chairs. Imagine needing passports mid-ski when you accidentally shred into Italy! Climate change: now even maps need edits!

Wow, bots are now CAPTCHA experts. What's next, robots winning "Where's Waldo?" contests? Pretty soon, we'll be sitting home while our appliances take top honors, and weโll be the ones asking for user authentication!

Onigiri is the Beyoncรฉ of rice balls, now with global fans. Ukonโs Bongo makes 1,500 a dayโcue eight-hour lines! From Franceโs Olympians to Aussies, these rice wonders fuel everyone. And remember, soy sauce on onigiri is a food felony!

YouTube: "Rolling in the Deep"? More like "Rolling in the Disputes!" Adele, Nirvana, and others are stranded in SESAC conflict limbo. Users madly clicking, finding only "Video unavailable." I guess YouTube's hit playlist is now a "miss" list!

OpenAI: "We wonโt build weapons, but weโll help the military securely download cat videos to maintain troop morale." If only all technology updates were this murky. Next, theyโll clarify their coffee is for "drinking" but wonโt rule out cup frisbee.

Looks like Californians are finally getting an "honesty upgrade" from Sony and Ubisoft! No more paying $60 for a game that vanishes faster than my resolutions. Remember, digital media: Now you see itโฆ Now you see the fine print!

Hugging Face hit 1 million AI models, proving that AI has more flavors than Baskin-Robbins. CEO Delangue says, "One model to rule them all is a myth," like trying to find Waldo in a candy cane factory!

Pirate Library Genesis owes $30M for copyright infringement. Good luck finding them! It's like trying to get a parrot to pay child support. Despite court orders, links remain online. And for their next trick? Vanishing ad revenues!

There are 100 doors, all closed.
In a nearby cage are 100 monkeys.
The first monkey is let out and runs along the doors opening every one.
The second monkey is then let out and runs along the doors closing the 2nd, 4th, 6th,โฆ - all the even-numbered doors.
The third monkey is let out. He attends only to the 3rd, 6th, 9th,โฆ doors (every third door, in other words), closing any that is open and opening any that is closed, and so on.
After all 100 monkeys have done their work in this way, what state are the doors in after the last pass?
