Looks like Washington DC is best at applying the 4-day rule for underwear - forwards, backwards, inside-out forwards, inside-out backwards.
I guess Iām more in the neo-Luddite category, simply for asking people, āHow does that app/program/etc. work?ā And when i donāt get a satisfactory answer I dont use it. Like Facebook.
TLDR via bingchat:
According to an article from The Conversation1, a Luddite is a person who is opposed to new technology or ways of working. The term comes from the name of a group of British workers who between 1811 and 1816 rioted and destroyed labor-saving textile machinery in the belief that such machinery would diminish employment2. The Luddites were protesting against manufacturers who used machines in āa fraudulent and deceitful mannerā to replace the skilled labor of workers and drive down wages by producing inferior goods3.
The term āLudditeā is now used to describe people who dislike new technology, but its origins date back to an early 19th-century labor movement that railed against the ways that mechanized manufactures and their unskilled laborers undermined the skilled craftsmen of the day4.

Suloszowa: Poland Town Where Everyone Lives On Same Street.
My son-in-law grew up in a subdivision where all the roads had the same name, Country Club Dr. Below is a picture of some of the subdivision. And yes, those roads you see marked as Country Club Dr. are all the same name. And that clip doesnāt include the entire area that uses that one street name for all the streets. No north, south, east, west or other ways of distinguishing them. The houses are numbered and there is some rhyme and reason to the numbering scheme though at first glance it doesnāt seem that way, except number are usually consecutive for houses next to each other. And I do mean consecutive, not odds on the left, evens on the right. Just looking on one side you might see 700 then 701, 702, 703.
Simply crazy. I wonder if it was a rebellion against Utah where many towns are laid out in north/south/east/west grid with numbers starting in the middle and going out from there so well laid out that it is usually very easy to find an address, some even by county.
then there is Atlanta, with all the Peachtree variationsā¦

True but at least those are variations. A321s example they are literally all exactly the same.
And Country Club Dr. goes on above and you can see more along the yellow main road on the right. There is another street name that does the same thing to the north west of this area too. It is nuts. I really donāt know how anyone can find anything without a GPS out there. Though listening to the GPS is confusing too, since it keep telling you to turn right/left on Country Club Drive.
