From Futility Closet:

“Each generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before and wiser than the one that comes after it.” — George Orwell

For the last few years, my sister and I have been playing the daily New York Times puzzles. A few months ago, We started sharing our daily efforts playing Wordle and Connections - we both also play other NYT puzzle games, but stuck with the two main games to share.

It’s a great, low-key way to stay connected. Often we just share the basic results, but if either of us has a particularly good or particularly bad day with our solutions, we’ll commiserate. We both agree the most annoying thing to happen in Wordle is to have 4 of the five letters correctly placed with either the first or second guess, and then need 3 or 4 chances to find the final letter.
