So if two users are working on the same textfield there is no way to merge their changes at the moment?

Which strategy do you use to sync data? (e.g. in the context of collaborative editing)

You obviously haven't heard of SoundCloud then ;) (founders are Swedes but company is based in Berlin)

I'd also like to try it out if it could use my last.fm history since I've been switching platforms and players a lot but I was always scrobbling all the songs.

But anyways, very cool idea :)

I've seen a lot GAs tuning parmeters for other algorithms. Someone already mentioned it here: http://news.ycombinator.org/item?id=4561167.

But I agree, that they are not a silver bullet for any kind of problem and for most problems there is almost always a way smarter and more efficient algorithm. I did not hold this presentation to show that GAs were the best solution for any problem. My intention was to teach sth. that I myself liked in university. Especially I thought that the way we were taught GAs in university was too complicated and complex.

Thx for the hint :) The task originated from a task I had to do at university in Algorithms class as an introduction to GAs and I liked the simplicity of it.
