The little rascal finished an endless game!

It's this last area that we're going to be interested in. Who could have predicted 40 years ago that these bunches of pixels that we manipulate thanks to electrical signals would one day become a discipline that rivals the most popular sports... But enough digressing - anyway, if I'm boring you, you can just leave the article; the fact that you clicked is enough for us - a few days ago, a 13-year-old kid broke Tetris, thus beating all humans at this game known for not having an end. Like all today's teenagers, he has a ridiculous username, he's called Blue Scuti.

(Watching his game, 40 minutes nonetheless, I noticed thatI discovered the awesome technique of always leaving a small space on the right for the bars, you had to think about it)


Finished or broken?

If I use the term broken, it's because the famous Russian game with an incredible history (go to Wikipedia, I'm a bit lazy to tell it, editor's note) is supposed to become so difficult that it's impossible to finish. For those who have missed out on life, Tetris is a puzzle game where you have to stack weird shapes on top of each other, to make lines, and thus put our existential anxieties aside for a few minutes and stop thinking about anything because the gradual increase in speed becomes stressful. The game is supposed to quickly become very difficult, even impossible. There is literally no end to the game. What is called "finishing" is actually a bug, which breaks the game, and, before this little geekos, only artificial intelligences, like the ones that defeated Kasparov in chess (same, go to Wiki, editor's note), have been able to overcome it. 

Pretty impressive for a human being after all.I am ridiculous.
