HA! Indeed
To quote the article :
I don't suppose there'll be many HP Calculator collectors in 3030 -- maybe HP Calculator archaeologists Or maybe they'll all be digitized and uploaded into holographic memory, if you've read Arthur C. Clarke's "3001 : The Final Odyssey" ( Don't worry about spoilers if you haven't read the book )

BTW, Portuguese, Spanish and Catalan have a special word for a palindromic number: capicua (in Spanish spelled capicúa), from Catalan “cap i cua” (head and tail). I only learned that word today, after hearing it on TV. Live and learn...

I'll bear it in mind nearly 10 months earlier than you on 12/02/2021

Yesterday's date palindrome was special because it was valid in any date setting DMY MDY YMD
Code:
__ __ __ __ __ __ __ __
| /| __| | /| __| __| | /| __| | /|
|/_| |__ .|/_| |__ .|__ |/_| |__ |/_|

A bit late now, but interesting nonetheless:
