I find it hilarious that the computer which made this discovery actually kept it a secret for four whole months.
From that article: “[Curtis] Cooper’s computer actually found the prime on 17 September 2015, but a bug meant the software failed to send an email alert reporting the discovery, meaning it went unnoticed until some routine maintenance a few months later.”

Was it HAL 2?

Maybe! I always liked the fact that the HAL 9000 computer and I share a birthday . . . although not in the same year.
