It seems to me that the 'The Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence Challenge' closed 24 hours earlier...

I generally refer to those people in other time zones as 'Time Bandits'
|

I hope you are aware that there are millions of 'time bandits' all around you?

We refer to them as foreigners.

That song takes me back...
It was on the first cassette that I bought for my brand-new Walkman. How time flies.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Foreigner was in the 'hitparade' in Holland for weeks, must have been in 1977, and I still hear it regularly on the radio ...
So don't accuse us of having anything against Foreigner

Sounds like me ...

Now now, cheer up, you can't be that bad, remember that you were never banned from CodeProject !
Did that cheer you up a little

Speaking of which, the world is going to hell and it's all the fault of those darn foreigners!
There are 7 billion people on earth and do you know how many of them are foreigners!?
|
|
|
|
|
Yup, too many.

Any fellow codeproject persons here fancy getting together for a coffee* some stage during the summit?
*By which I mean beer. The coffee here is not great.

Well,
I walked around at one of the last MVP summits a few years ago (sampling the food) but the only person I could recognize was Nish. I spoke with him briefly and left 15 minutes later...
What kind of place are you looking for? A grimy pub atmosphere or something more fancy? There's actually not much to do in Redmond... you might be better off driving off campus down to Seattle.

I would like to, but as it's not exactly in the neighborhood for me I have to decline I'm afraid.
Now if you had proposed 'in an Irish Pub' then ...

I think I will go to bed early, so no reactions on posts for at least 8 hours (my phone is off too)
And for those in other time zones (aka Time Bandits) Goodmorning, Goodevening etc.

Night-night, sleep tight; don't let the bed-bugs bite.

Thanks for the dynamite tip, caused a bit of a mess
But now thanks to a hearty breakfast I feel much better, we did a bit of British/French fusion cooking:
in a small baking mold put croissant dough, a slice of bacon, cheese and an egg and bake that in the oven or air fryer for 15 minutes at about 200 degrees.
Success guaranteed ! Here is the recipe in Dutch: Mini-kerstontbijtquiches - Recept - Allerhande - Albert Heijn[^]

Don't mention dough!
Thanks to the snow (and Centralization of distribution) all local supermarkets are out of bread, despite having just a dusting of snow. So I went to make some bread this morning, and my yeast has died of old age.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
