Its basically like a cloud storage, and your local storage (your brain) gets wiped every loop. You can edit this file any time you want using your brain (you can be tied up and it still works). 1024 Bytes is all you get. Yes you read that right: BYTES, not KB, MB, or GB: 1024 BYTES

Lets just say, for this example: The loop is 7 days form a Monday 6 AM to the next Monday 5:59 AM.

How do you best use these 1024 Bytes to your advantage?

How would your strategy be different if every human on Earth also gets the same 1024 Bytes “memory buffer”?

    So if between weeks you don’t retain any skills and the entire world resets, then the sum total of your existence is what you experience in a week and what you can store in 1 kB of data. Unlike groundhog day, where the protagonist knows and can learn.

    The 1 kB would be the only thing that indicates that something is going on.

    The irony is that your own memory of the 1 kB existing and how to write to it would also need to be retained.

    (I’m a software developer, it’s all about the edge cases.)

    My initial response with the expanded parameters, I’d probably store a GPS location and a timestamp. How far did you get in a week, assuming that your starting location also resets.
