I get this so often its getting annoying to see flaws in everything. 1.See flaw in program X 2.See program X are too flawed and decided to rewrite it 3.See another program Y and too decided to rewrite it 4.See the libraries they use and decide to rewrite them 5.Also decide to write a better standard library. 6.OS is too flawed, decided to write my own. 7.After a few weeks change to another language, because first one is too flawed. 8.Time to write my own language. This one is too flawed. 9.Become disgusted with hardware and portability. 10.start thinking of designing my own hardware 11.see hardware design tools as flawed, decide to rewrite them. 12. finally think how much it would cost to design this perfect hardware. 13. forger about it and get annoyed by #1 again

I try to pretend I didn't see anything unless rewriting program X doesn't take too long.

I try to pretend CVEs are never exploited and resist the urge to rewrite Cee/Sepples code in question.

Four students were arguing about software. One said: "This software is flawed."
The other said: "Libraries which software depends on are flawed." Third replied: "Its a flaw in the OS and libc that libraries depend on." Fourth pondered and concluded:"Hardware flaws and limits are to blame for such flaws in OS and libc"
The Sussman happened to be passing by. He told them: "Not the software, not the libraries, not the libc, not the OS, not hardware; mind is flawed."
you need perfect AI to design perfect software but AI itself is software so it will only be perfect if designed by perfect AI. the requirements are circular. how enterprise!

>>14 That last line explains it. "perfect AI" is bootstrapped from imperfect "code monkey" AI

>>15 but you said that perfect software needs to be created by a perfect AI that runs on a perfect hardware. the problem is that AI itself still is software - so either imperfect AI can create perfect software or you can't create perfect software without already having perfect software

>imperfect AI can create perfect software Machine learning is all about how imperfect brute force(reinforcement learning) creates "perfect AI" In that case they run AlphaGO over Pro games to seed initial expertise, then made it play itself for millions of games to sharpen its skills-> train on that data->repeat, now its above any human player.
