It seems I'm in a minority thinking this is not that great... wind can blow the hat (or the thing from the generalized idea) into traffic, or onto a baby, or any other place to upset people. Also, if the recipient can't/doesn't pick the thing up, then it's littering. From the technical perspective finding heads in a video is not that impressive nowadays... So, I don't get all the excitement...

Wrong, errors should not go unnoticed, let alone helping them to propagate. Cascading effects should be kept on a short leash. System takes one step in the wrong direction, kill it. The two most miserable things are, things not happening and there's no feedback on why, and, the other extreme, when things are overengineered and no one can predict where problems might cascade to.

Uhm so why not not-use that font, and switch to another mainstream one? Who cares, it's just a font? Or is it heresy to ask this?

Ask it for a racist joke.

Get another job first, only then quit this one (then it doesn't matter if u pay them, in the grand scheme of things). Best case you find one. Worst case you don't, then you still have this paying your bills, be happy about it.

Yes. Also, back then in the offline-ish times people shipped working software. Nowadays stuff is huge, slow, craps out all the time, and the risk of stuff breaking with a next update is comparable to the security risks of turning off updates completely.

Everyone used pirated software, Bill still got rich, software developers did make a living, and software prices did not cripple companies. Good old times.

Recruiter: <buzzwords, no pricetag>

Me: ok how much are they paying

Recruter: keep BSing. Or reveals a salary that is laughable compared to what people throw in at HN.

Me: disillusioned. I guess should be happy to have my current job. Happy not have spent my time with uncomfortable phonecalls.

So then don't torture students by making them write long essays and waste their valuable time. Make it the task expressing the argument on a back of a napkin. More thought, less time wasted on writing text-amount. Also less of the teacher's time wasted, do they really read 100x student 3 pages, weekly? Don't they have anything better to do?

when you program a computer usually there are instant feedback tools like graphic output, debugger, beeps... what I really miss with genetic hacking is this immediate feedback. Did I shake that liquid enough? How degraded was that agent? What is going on in that flask? It would be nice to have a super microscope ad observe, instead of guessing high level what's going on. Well my tomato doesn't glow, how can I debug what went wrong.

Agreed on getting excellent hints from it, shortening the time to figure out stuff. But eg. just now it gave me an example algorithm that, only at 2nd look, turned out to be complete nonsense. You know That colleague, who shines in the eyes of his managers, but peers know that half what he does is garbage.

Agree if no consequence. But imagine, what if there is. And the debate's winner gets to implement his BS.
