Original Title: "#5: Yesterday"


Monday, July 20th, 2026


Yesterday, two awful things happened.

  1. GrepMind's business has been slowing down. We have been turning down complicated offers from companies, which is why we now require contracts to keep GrepLabs alive. In addition, the cyber-security role remains vacant. To respect privacy, I blacked out names in the following messages:

    There were these Bash notes, you see...

    I'm too lazy to write a full transcript for the previous message.

    Chat message at 7:54 PM about cyber security careers, with some names redacted in a gray text bubble on a white background.
    Transcript: If X doesn't want to be cyber-security, Y can be or else Y can be assistant cyber-security.

  2. Another sad thing happened. Rodri and Cubarsi respectively won the Golden Ball and Best Young Player Award when Michael Olise of France (7 assists) should have won the Golden Ball and England's Jude Bellingham (& goals, 1 assist, age 23) should have won the Best Young Player Award. Unai Simon did well, but he wasn't tested much. Vozinha, Emiliano Martinez, Orlando Gill, and Jordan Pickford were tested more and they did much better. Plus, both Argentina and Spain are very physical. FAH.

    The Netherlands was deserving. (Note: This is Wikipedia. I need to get a life.)

Football rants aside, GrepLabs needs help. We need a good deal. One of our employees was sacked due to an inability to come up with ideas. He was replaced with another employee whose birthday is today. We wished him a happy birthday, and he is now under contract until October 24th, after which we will vote on giving him the right to extend his contract into 2027.


GrepLabs is considering privatization. We might sell one of the GrepMind models to a private investor. We might also become a private investor and partner up with the San Jose Earthquakes, a currently successful MLS team who are in the same state as us. More on privatization in future blog articles...
