Tell the kids it's "12345678" and see how long they take to work it out.
Hang on, I'll quickly try it: "2444666668888888" - yeah, works fine for me ...

Not sure if other news outlets are running this story/challenge, but I'm sure there are some.
Riemann hypothesis: Unsolved math problem worth $1 million[^]
According to the article:
Quote: In 2000, the Riemann hypothesis was designated as a Millennium Problem, one of seven mathematical problems that are deemed to be crucial to increasing and disseminating mathematical knowledge.
Anyone who solves any one of the seven Millennium Problems is entitled to the million-dollar bounty.

What? That old thing again?
Edit:
The Riemann hypothesis is noteworthy for its appearance on the list of Hilbert problems, Smale's list, the list of Millennium Prize Problems, and even the Weil conjectures, in its geometric guise. Although it has been attacked by major mathematicians of our day, many experts believe that it will still be part of unsolved problems lists for many centuries. Hilbert himself declared: "If I were to awaken after having slept for a thousand years, my first question would be: Has the Riemann hypothesis been proved?"

I'm just surprised that no one has solved any of these 7 math problems for $1 million. I mean, that's a lot of money, even in 2023.
7+ billion people on earth - there has to be someone smart enough to solve these problems. This challenge is 23+ years old now.

42 was in 1900 and because of inflation it's 1528.45 today.
I win!
I don't think before I open my mouth, I like to be as surprised a everyone else.

Have heard that there're many unproved theorems proposed by the Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan. Not sure whether any of them have prizes for proving.

A deaf mute guy walks up to a foursome on the first hole, hands one of the players a card that says “I am a deaf mute, playing as a single, may I play through?”
The guy that gets the card is a total jerk, shakes his head no, and points the deaf mute to go back and wait his turn.
A few holes later the jerk is standing in the fairway and gets hit in the head by a golf ball.
In excruciating pain and pissed off, he turns around and sees the deaf mute holding up four fingers.
I don't think before I open my mouth, I like to be as surprised a everyone else.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

A pastor, a doctor and an engineer were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers. The engineer fumed, "What's with these guys? We must have been waiting for 15 minutes!"
The doctor chimed in, "I don't know, but I've never seen such ineptitude!"
The pastor said, "Hey, here comes the greenskeeper. Let's have a word with him."
"Hi George. Say, what's with that group ahead of us? They're rather slow, aren't they?"
The greenskeeper replied, "Oh, yes, that's a group of blind firefighters. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime."
The group was silent for a moment. The pastor said, "That's so sad. I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight."
The doctor said, "Good idea. And I'm going to contact my ophthalmologist buddy and see if there's anything he can do for them."
The engineer said, "Why can't these guys play at night?"

No, it is a thermoelectric conversion with a very low or no thermal difference between the anode and cathode parts. In all thermoelectric conversions there is barrier that prevents the free flow of electrons. The hot part of the thermoelectric converter provides the energy to the electrons to cross the barrier to the cool side. The barrier prevents the electrons from flowing back, acting like a diode. This forces the electrons to pile up, acting like a capacitor, until it is connected to a circuit to be drawn off to do real work. This paper seems to indicate that the single molecule thickness of graphene lowers the required hot side to the ambient room temperature. If it is proven to be true, it could revolutionize savaging waste heat from all mechanical processes and provide significant support to green power. However, there is a mountain of work to be done before anything real can come of it.
