This is an interesting take and I've seen this done for determining if someone is cheating at Chess. If a player's movements match the AI moves too much (85%+ I think) then the player is considered cheating.
The top performer I know is a legend in my mind. I literally constructed a story in my head that during their gestation in the womb, there was some brain development mistake that the cells literally neglected to apply the synapses that allow frustration.
There are glass half full of water people. This top performer is glass half full of: trillions of molecules that allow for the biology the most incredible aggregation of elements in the universe! What a wonder!
What a treat to work with them!
I'll go a game route: Mario Kart. It's just so perfect. All of them from the SNES to the Switch.
I've played countless hours and never get bored. The level designs are all so interesting and unique I find myself discovering something new every time. It's social and I've seen it dominate dinner parties.
I'll second pretty much any old rice cooker with only one button design. There's a reason every Asian home considers it integral.
More than just rice, you can do so much more than one would think in there. I cook a Spaghetti Squash by just placing it inside on warm. No oil or anything. Then I go to work, come back 10 hours later and it's perfect. Can open it with a butterknife.
I'll take it over a slow cooker any day because it can set to a boil. The warm setting is perfect for most things and I've used it to make stocks, confits, yogurt, stews, curries and eggs without worrying about burning down my kitchen when I'm away as it will set itself to warm when there's no more water to evaporate.
I think in space it comes in handy. But best not make coffee again after that.
I was telling my young cousins in their teens that back in the day every office and classroom had a massive projector that looked like a retro interpretation of a goose. At the beginning of a lecture the professor would wheel this massive hunk of metal to the front of the room and shut off the room lights. The metal hunk was transparent on top and shot a powerful beam of light up vertically and the goosehead would reflect the light onto the wall. The professor on transparent sheets of plastic and colorful pencils would give their lecture with writing and illustrations on the wall. This was before PowerPoint was a thing.
I can't tell you how exciting technology is sometimes that I literally can feel excitement about something like this whiteboard system while also feeling nostalgia for the past. Love this tool thank you Niko.
