For non-cubers: You can't solve the rubik cube blindfolded using the same methods. It's like trying to memorise a 15-puzzle, and then keeping track of all the numbers in your head as you move them around blind-folded.

ChatGPT works well when it does, but when it doesn't - it remains confidently incorrect.

Q: how can I solve a rubik cube blindfolded?

A: Solving a Rubik's Cube blindfolded is a challenging feat that requires a combination of memorization, visualization, and problem-solving skills. To do it, you will need to memorize the configuration of the solved Rubik's Cube and then use a specific set of algorithms to manipulate the cube while keeping track of its orientation in your mind. This is a difficult task, and it may take a lot of practice to be able to do it successfully. Here are some general steps you can follow to try solving a Rubik's Cube blindfolded:

(Instructions follow, but suggest re-using the same algorithms as normal solving)

This is despiriting in a particularly Indian fashion. They admit that they deliberately make the UX poor to ensure a level playing field. The logic is essentially "till everybody gets autofill, nobody can use it". Not only the arrest, the line of argument stifles innovation. twitter.com/SpokespersonIR…

First you build a broken system, then intentionally keep it broken, while making it mandatory. Then you claim that it’s somebody else’s responsibility to clean it up (in this case, State Governments).
