Okay, so, the other day I was messing around with, uh, this project – “10218184.” I think it’s some kinda number stuff, I didn’t even know for sure, to be honest.
I started by, like, just looking at it. Just stared at the numbers, you know? Trying to see if anything popped out. Nothing did, at first. It looked completely random.
Then, I decided to break it down. I took each pair of digits and treated them as separate little things. Like, 10, 21, 81, 84. Still didn’t make much sense.
My Dumb Little Process
- Looked at the whole thing. Got nothing.
- Split it into pairs. Still confused.
- Tried adding them, subtracting them… you name it. Nope.
After that, I got frustrated,I thought, “Maybe it’s a date?” Yeah, I know, kinda dumb. But sometimes these things are dates. So, I tried to see if it fit any date format. October 21st, 18184? No year 18184. 21st of August,184?Nope. Didn’t work. It looked wrong.
Then I went totally random. I started plugging the numbers into, like, a calculator, just mashing buttons. Addition, subtraction, multiplication… the works. Still nothing that made any sense.
I did get frustrated and close the note,but I came back to the note after a cup of coffe.
Then, for no good reason, I thought about, like, phone * it relate to some phone things? I googled the first few digits, thinking maybe it was an area code or something. Nope. More dead ends.
Finally, I decided to just treat it like a code. A really simple, dumb code. I assigned letters to each number, like A=1, B=0, C=2,and so * by the position number.
And guess what?It works! It spelled out a nonsense word, which, okay, isn’t super *’s “BCAIBIAE”,seems nothing.
But, hey, I figured something out, right? It wasn’t a date, it wasn’t a phone number, it was just… a silly little * I solved * using simple replace!
That’s all.
