Hello
Hey we meet again!
Yeah! I just got back on How have you been
Good and you?
Pretty good, a few roommates are moving out So everything is a mess
Yeah My room mate is leaving at the exact same time as I do
That works out well!
yeah it does I don't really want to do all the cleaning yet though...
I move out thursday and I did some cleaning today But yeah, its a bit of a downer
yeah it is
Right after you finish school, now you get to clean
yeah
I did go celebrate though with icecream once I was done What is your favorite flavor?
I like the strawberry sundae crunch
Oh yes!
I also like the graham canyon I am not a big fan of chocolate ice cream
I really have to be in the mood for it I have actually never tried graham canyon
it is good but not nearly as good as strawberry sundae crunch that one is th ebest
Nice, so then Im set because I have had that one
which is your personal favorite?
I like mint brownie
hmmm I don' think I have tried that one I need to, but I am pretty much out of money
Its yummy, it has brownie chunks in it and the fudge doesnt freeze that they mix into it Haha yeah I wont let myself buy anymore ice cream this semester
Oh that is super cool
I would recommend it
I will try it next semester for sure you have my word. I will let you know how it tastes
Hahaha sounds good
Will you still be around then?
Depends when you are talking about
Hahaha this spring
Oh no I fly home in a week
oh ok
But think of me, that anonymous person you met online and you will probably never know who they actually are
yeah But we go to the same school I will probably run into you even if I don't realize it.
Probably, thats a valid point Though, the only reason why I see my roommates is really at night when we are all back at the apartment, or If one forgot something and I have to meet them Otherwise I never see them on campus
Wow Last semester I had a couple of classes with my roommate But this semester it has been like you describe
Thats fun!
It was We both did well because we were able to study together
That is so convenient! That would be nice
Have you ever shared a class with a roommate?
Nope, this is my first semester Well I guess that is a lie. One roommate had the same class but different lecture time He didnt study though So it wouldnt have been helpful
That was one of the two classes I was in last semester with my roommate Its the opposite though usually he studies and I dont
Haha thats funny Of course its that way where one does and the other doesnt
yeah thats life for you Do you think computers will rule the world someday?
I hope not So I will say no
Me too
Currently I think its too easy to find bugs in them
I don't think they can but in the future I think that warfare will involve a lot more robotics than it does today
Like even the most expensive tech has its problems That is definitely a possibility
yeah but problems keep getting fixed
I guess Ive seen a lot of product designs for military drones and other robotic units I think those things are so cool
Yeah. have you heard of the railguns that are used by the military?
I havent?
I read they can reach ranges of about 500 miles
OH my
you should google it they are awesome
I will have to
there are even fully dedicated ships that have batteries to power railguns
Its just railguns? Nice How did you hear about them?
I was reading about advances in military technology
Nice, is that something you do in your freetime?
yeah I research random stuff in my free time I don't usually go very deep though
Oh way cool
unless it serves some sort of purpose or I am wildly curious about it
But just getting any information is awesome
I love learning about things especially things that were thought of impossible before
What all have you found new information about?
Well tesla has been a focus recently I skim the news too
Whats new with Tesla
so I keep reading about this summit between the leader of north korea kim il jung or something like that, and trump Well they are still having production issues I haven't checked the headlines today yeah still same ol same ol, but it looks like apple released another update on ios I will probably download it
There is always some new update with just about everything you could possibly have I get so annoyed with those sometimes
yeah I like it when it is an update that fixes something that was broken on my phone
This is very true
yeah
But most of the time I dont know the difference
I am super obsessed with security
Do you tape over your webcam?
no But I have passwords for everything and they are all different and complex
Thats impressive you can remember them
Also my phone is secured with a 8+ digit passcode and I wont even reveal the lenght length
Nice
What is the longest essay you have ever written and what was it about?
Um it was just over 30 pages on functions of pistons, stoke and bore, reverse osmosis systems and potable water concerns around the world
Wow that is huge
It was my Sophomore year research project  in high school
wow that really sucks I cant focus for 30 pages. But maybe someday I could do it.
We did it over the school semester so it wasnt too bad
Wait the entire semester? How do you do when you realize that you have to restructure your paper because it wasn't what you initially envisioned it to be?
Yeah that part was a pain. I ended up having to do a ton of revisions. Luckily a lot of it was explanations and analyzing other peer reviewed research so Those didnt change too much based on what I did
Did it happen to you? oh ok thats good I am not really much of a writer, but I don't mind chatting or just flat out explaining things mainly because I have instant feedback on what hasn't been understood or wasn't communicated well
Yeah chatting is an easier platform to adjust and re direct Essays can be difficult with it starting somewhere and ending someplace else. Then needing to go back and change everything
yeah
Though in general I prefer talking in person
yeah me too
Especially if I am getting to know someone
I am better at chatting online than in person hahaha I prefer in person though and where I can meet someone instead of it just being some random person on the other end
Yeah that makes sense
I wrote a paper on artificial intelligence did I tell you about that? It is the longest paper I have ever written at 100 pages ... -90 pages... it was huge
How come you said you couldnt focus for 30 pages but you can do 100?
-90 it was 10 pages
Oh so like 10?
yeah hahahaha
Okay I thought you were giving a range
no haha I have literally never done more than 10 and before that it was 4 or 5 I can do longer but it usually stresses me out like no other if there is a due date and it isn't top notch writing like what you would expect for an english class or something like that Why is it that we keep running into each other? Either you and I are on this a lot or there is something more sinister going on...
Hahaha let the conspiracy theories begin
hahaha they are intentionally pairing us up it is a psychological experiment they dont actually need the data to train eve I knew something was fishy
It is kinda funny that out of the hundreds of conversations we have connected a bunch
yeah super crazy I think 7 or 8 times or maybe less maybe like 5-6
Enough to be noticed
yeah I usually notice the second time I have matched with the same people many times kj, drewbie, H, daviss, you, brian, britt A bunch of people also jaezi
That is funny
or jaezo actually
I really dont remember anyones name yours is easy
hahaha adam and eve its poetiv poetic
Definitely I like that they named the AI eve
yep that is why it is poetic
Do you like poetry in general?
no not really I like some of it but more like the inspiring stuff like the works of robert frost
Okay, He is a good poet I honestly love some, and despise others not centered on robert frost
why despise?
but in general Repetition has to be right for it not to annoy me and like the poem the Bells just annoyed me since it was required it made it more frustrating that I had to read it
Hey what is your favorite sport?
To play or watch?
play
Tennis
thats cook cool I am terrible at tennis though
I am too currently, I had an accident and ruined my wrist so I havent been able to play again
what happened
It was a bike accident
oh wow did you crash?
Basically yes, It didnt end too well then, but now I am doing all okay. Just limited activities that involve a wrist
Just one wrist? How do you type?
Well I can use it, just not too intensly So typing is fine
Oh i see
Long days of drawing can be a struggle or weight bearing things
Have you ever gotten addicted to a video game or an app?
I probably have Nothing currently
same. What game?
Plants vs Zombie, Spore, Lego Starwars, Brawl All at different points, each of those could pass as an addiction
Oh I was addicted to plants versus zombies once haha
Its a fun game! I dont like the second but thats fine
yeah me either ever tried 2048 or flappy bird?
Oh yes Those are fun
yeah They got rid of flappy bird though do you remember when that came out exactly?
I think It came out while I was in highschool Maybe 4-5 years ago There are so many knock offs its kinda funny
yeah it is, the real one is gone though
I think i still have it on an old thing what other popular apps are there?
umm I dont know I am not into games anymore sorry I am looking through a bunch or I was
thats okay
so why did you decide to start chatting?
I thought the cause was cool, the prizes are a plus
yeah thats true I hope eve turns out and wins the competition
That would be awesome for the CS department
How do you think we can improve our chat so it works better for eve? Or do you think we are doing enough? Yeah it would
Um, I think just talking about different things is good, it gives lots of different subjects
yeah They should make a button that injects another conversation starting question
do you want to do anything different?
also they should put more conversation starters I found a few hundred on google that I pull from
You could email them and let them know
yeah What is their email again?
chitchat@byu.edu
I found flappy bird in app histor y it was downloaded january 2014 I am going to write an email anything I should include?
I was really close! I cant think of anything
yeah you were haha
Do you keep up with any TV shows?
sent
Nice!
No not really I used to keep up with the extinct tv show
What was it about?
the one that is produced by byu
Oh, I havent heard of it
It is good but I think they ended the series which makes me really sad
That is too bad
Yeah it is pretty lame I  am excited to get back home to my family after tomorrow
How long has it been since you have seen them?
I should probably get to packing up and getting ready to move out since the beginning of the semester Does your family live far away?
Just across the country
Holy cow That must suck Are there lots of members of the church your age there? the lds church
Its alright, I call and talk to them every few days
same. I try to keep in contact every week or so by facetime
Not really, I have to drive an hour or so to make it to a YSA congregation Thats way good But if you need to go pack I dont mean to keep you
I served in a ysa ward on my mission and it was like that Ok thanks!
We will talk again!
It was nice talking to you, I am sure we will, given our odds hahaha Have a great evening!
