Here’s your non-post for Sunday.
Just to show how far I’ve come in four years, here is my post from September 14, 2004, reprinted for your pleasure:
Enjoy this post? Try these:20 questions – this computer is awesome
It guessed a wolverine before any other animal, and I answered half the questions “Unknown”. Pretty impressive. The funnier part is the Uncommon Knowledge (scroll down), like the wolverine may be used by a basketball player, probably could be placed on my head, and may be colorless.
20Q: “Play
Computer wins
Play Again
You were thinking of a wolverine.
Is it small? You said Probably, I say No.
Does it live in a burrow? You said Unknown, I say Yes.
Does it dig holes? You said Unknown, I say Yes.
Is it a type of cat? You said Unknown, I say No.
Does it purr? You said Unknown, I say No.
Does it have a long tail? You said Unknown, I say No.
Is it multicolored? You said No, I say Yes.
Contradictions Detected
It does not matter if our answers disagree, as over time the game will change its answers to reflect common knowledge. If you feel that the game is in error, the only way to fix it is to play again.

Having recently seen a real live wolverine at the zoo, I find this especially humorous.
You’re a nut but I like you!

Useless info about 20Q, the program was design but a very smart guy who lives up the street. It was a school project, that, it true geekness, he kept up with. Then make a whack of cash on it, when this toy manufacturer made a toy with it.
Geeks shall truly inherit the earth.

What’s really lame is that your 20Q URL link is broken. You weren’t kidding!

Ironically enough today I read ALL your entry posts from the time I discovered your blog all the way back to 2004. Holy fuck you’re funny. LOL

I just went and tried it myself.
Wow.
I’ve tried pizza, aspirin, and raspberry, and it’s correctly guessed it every time.
I’m gonna go back and try again.
This is how much of a social life I have on weekends.
