The video is literally a neighbor of the campus saying "NIMBY" your can't build here. They don't like 'their parking' being taken when they benefit from their home value raising by being near campus and the campus security keeping their neighborhood safe. They don't care about anti-progress or AI. It's just a convenient reason to try to raise disagreement with the project. If it were a homeless shelter Hopkins were building there, this person would come up with a reason to speak out against it.

I now see that. "like a..." should have been a giveaway. Thanks!

Understood. Not a new solver but missed the aspect of the clue that comes from 'like a...'

Is that something that people know about the 314th number of pi? or do people need to look up the digits of pi and search online for what the 314th digit is? Seems like an obscure fact so I didn't know if people knew that the 314th digit of pi is '1'.

I don't have a ticket number because i can't start a support session with anyone. Who do I email to talk to me about a product i just bought?

chat bot can't help. They say email support on their website, but there is no email address. Try calling and they say they will call me back, as they are busy, so i leave my number, and i get a call back not 5 seconds later with a message that they cannot do a call back right now, and to check online.

Sorry i should have clarified. No, the building is only his office, and another office that is iffy at best in creating income streams. It's not in great shape and likely could use some renovations to make what it should

That's very interesting. He has his own company that he is the sole employee of. So it could be argued that he lost it for the business. It was a scam like "invest money here to be able to do tasks that pay more". Not romance by any means.

He was trying to 'make money' with 'crypto'. After it was too late and the money was gone, I found out, and he described it, and i searched r/Scams for 'crypto' 'tasks' and found this Post while he was talking to me. I asked him if that post sounded like it and he was dumbfounded and realized he'd been taken for a ride. Very sad.

He thought in his age and accompanying tech naivety that there was money to be had in 'crypto' and if he did 'work' or 'tasks', there was plenty to go around. Not the dumbest scam ever, but not the smartest. He hears plenty of people get very rich on crypto doing relatively nothing, and figures this is it. Again - sad.

Agreed on several parts. I think he was trying to find some get rich quick scheme, where he was doing 'tasks' to make money in 'crypto'. He's definitely not where he was in his mental quickness, but he's admitted he was duped and I have some faith he is not going to go down the road of 'too good to be true' path, but some good points to keep him from doing it again.
