Four teams escaped Messi. Can you name them without cheating?

Messi played over 200 times for Argentina, and there are apparently only four international teams he never beat. Four. This feels easy until you try to name the last couple. No Google, no hints — put all four in one reply if you can. I’m expecting a lot of confident answers and a few very creative guesses.

If you switch the model, freeze the rest of the agent first

Model routing gets discussed as if the prompt goes in, a model name changes, and everything else stays still.

That is rarely true once the model sits inside an agent.

If I wanted to know whether GPT was actually better for one task, I would freeze at least five other things:

- the exact instruction or skill version

- the input packet and data timestamp

- available tools and their permissions

- memory and prior conversation state

- the evaluator, retry rule, and stopping condition

Then I would switch only the model.

Questflow is the concrete product that made this problem click for me. Its public finance-agent stack names Models, Skills, Plugins, and Accounts as separate layers, and it describes switching among models such as GPT, Claude, and Gemini by scenario. Once those layers are visible, a “GPT versus another model” result is only meaningful if the method, live context, and authority stayed fixed too.

Otherwise the thing being compared is a configured system, not a model.

This also changes how I think about routing. Choosing a model at the start of a task is relatively clean. Switching halfway through creates a new system state: the second model inherits somebody else's partial reasoning, tool history, and unresolved assumptions.

Would you allow a router to switch models mid-task, or require a fresh run with a new audit record whenever the model changes?

International Banks to Gcash

Hello guys!

May nakatry na ba sa inyo any international like Europe based banks tapos send to Gcash niyo? Hindi kasi tinatanggap ng paypal yung bank card ko to verify kaya Gcash na lang talaga way ko.

Like looking into getting a custom 3D model made. Quotes were hundreds of dollars. Hard pass.so sad

So i just found this random tool called framia with ai face swap,pload a selfie, get a 3D avatar in like 10 minutes. Actually looked like me!Not perfect but close.

Ported it into a game and just walked around as myself for a bit. Weird but kinda cool.

buying rusted gym plates from school liquidations and recoating them

high school athletic departments liquidate 45 lb cast iron weight plates for $10 each whenever they upgrade weight rooms. the iron is usually covered in surface rust from humid gym basements.

i set up a 50-gallon plastic drum in my backyard with washing soda and an old 12V battery charger for electrolysis rust stripping. it pulls all the rust off the bare metal overnight with zero scrubbing. i spray them with black truck bed liner and flip them on marketplace for $60 a pair. flipped twenty pairs last month on weekends.

Facebook&Messenger restricted me for chatting 1 day & 3 days

Have anyone experienced Facebook and Messenger just randomly restricting your account to send out messages?

it says my account has no issues or says what the problem. Just that I can't send out messages.

July 8 - 9 pm got restricted

July 9 - 9 pm got lifted

July 10 - around 1 am got the 3 days restriction

I didn't even send out messages to other people nor comment anything bad on posts. I am just liking videos or reels.

Facebook just tagged my randomly a restriction for 1 and then 3 days

I have been using this Facebook account for almost 10 years or more than 10 years. I don't usually share posts nor comment bad stuffs to other people. Just a normal liking or hearts on posts.

Plus, I normally just have a conversations in Group chats for school and to my friends and family. Just on July 8 @9 pm. After playing a game, I opened my Facebook to see that I was added a restriction for a day to not be able to chat. After July 9 @ 9pm, it was lifted and I can now chat. I didn't chat too long since it was already late.

BEHOLD.

July 10, 8 am. I saw a notification 5 hours ago that I was given another restriction for 3 DAYS.

How do Facebook even do this? I don't even chat nor send out bad things online.

Should I make a new account to this?

May confession ako and please don't spread this on other social media platform.

LONG POST AHEAD!

Recently, I was interviewed/oriented on the company. Sa totoo lang after the orientation it was weird for me. Kasi during the orientation. I was asked if may example ba ako maiisip na parang nagbebenta ng products, so sumagot ako na yung Frontrow nakapasok ako dati ng zoom pero di ako tumuloy. Then, tinanong ako nung head ng team kuno if ang friends ko is more or so within 20. Yun pala kasi target nila na maghahanap ako ng clients doon sa kanila.

It's just weird for me na they would announce that insurances in the Philippines are low compared to other countries. Honestly, paano naman kasi makakaavail ang mga tao kung ginagago lang din ninyo sila?

Ang daming flowery words na sinasabi nung head kuno sa akin about incentives, bonuses, travel keme, yung 45% commission, 10% commission, 5% commission, 12% monthly commission from the advisor, and more.

Now, para daw maging Financial Advisor ako. I have to pay for 2 exams and reviewer nila. Feel ko totoo naman kasi backed by the government daw tapos grabe yung pageenganyo sa akin na meron daw silang assistance by the company na they will shoulder the 5k+ then if you can't pay. You may pay daw within 90 days. Pero bibigyan ako ng deal nung head ng team na if I meet the qouta of 40k sa mga client/s. Iwawave daw yung 5k then baka bigyan ako ng 5k.

At that time, nakasign lang ako ng recruitment assistance program nila kasi naprepressure ako kasama yung head at yung head pa kuno nila. I can't say no kasi nirecommend lang ako ng mama ko about that head FA kung kasali makahanap ako ng office job yun pala gagawin pala ako tighanap ng sales ng products nila. Pressured ako that time kasi gusto ko kausapin mismo yung nagrecommend sa mama ko about this pero madami kasi tao sa office nila. It just hurts me na baka pagtawanan or mas ipressure nila ako on the spot about this whole thing.

Madaming parinig while I was signing na yung head na nagOrient sa akin ipapasa nya yung money niya doon sa officer worker niya na parang pay daw. Yun pala ayun yung pay for the supposed review ko for the exam. At that time, 5 pm na yun pero nainform din ako na down daw system nila.

Ngayon, sinabi ko lahat sa mama ko at nagalit siya kasi nagpapatulong kami makakakuha ng trabaho kasi madami nang debt. Gagawin pa kaming tanga na may babayarin pa. In reality, it will be hard to sell insurance products. Lalo na sa panahon ngayon?

Ang gago kasi.

After a few hours, nagcontact na ang mother ko sa kakilala niya. Ngayon flinoflood kami na sayang daw yung opportunity. Tapos yung hindi na ako nagrespond. Sinabihan ako na nakabayad na daw kasi pero wala naman pinakitang resibo. I haven't even submitted anything sa side ko na documents. Required daw ako bayaran yung 2k na pinasa nung isang head sa isang tao.

Ano yun nakabayad agad kayo sa government na gabi na?? Sabik yarn. Hindi pa nga nag1 day yung process. Walang confirmation pa nga on your side sa akin. Hindi rin ako naAdd sa GC. I was given no contract din. Just that "Assistance program" lang na dapat makasubmit ako ng requirements na ang dami dami nakastate doon.

I am planning to block the person na kakilala ni mama at yung head na nagOrient sa akin.

Gusto ko lang sabihin in the bottom of my heart na those insurance companies that they can go to hell :>

Sino nakaencounter na 4/5 lang verifications sa paypal sa "link to card". Ayaw kasi magLink ng landbank card ko.

NagSolicit ako sa friend ko from Europe. Problema lang kasi hindi fully verified ang Paypal ko. Natatakot kami baka mahold lang ang pera.

  1. May limit ba ang transfer kahit not fully verified?

  2. If natransfer ba, paano po itratransfer ulit to a bank/gcash?

  3. Revolut or PayPal kasi gamit niya, may other ways ba like local bank natin instead of paypal ko?

Meron lang ako Maribank (No card), Landbank (w/card), and Gcash kasi.

Thank you sa makakasagot 😭 Badly needed lang ng advise/help kasi isposponsor niya daw ako.

Kakabili ko lang nung lunch ng globe sim na 5G. Hindi ako makaraos sa Valid ID.

Postal ID gamit ko pero kahit walang reflection sa physical ID kasi tinatiming ko naman di nagrereflect yung sticker pero ayaw niya talaga.

Pwede ba magpatulong sa mismong store nila? or baka may other solution kayo guys.
