...so they're naming it "HAL"? Really?

Stanley Kubrick must be chortling in his grave.

Well, uh, time to clean my glasses, it seems.

How do gender roles and sexism figure into this? I'm sure it's not the only reason, but it wouldn't surprise me if most of the 'party' work ended up falling on the wife more often than not.

Two things:

1) I wanted a harness for running BPC.EXE (the old Borland Pascal 7.0 Compiler) and I asked Gemini 3.5 to build it for me using the unicorn engine. It whipped out a working .py file easily under ten minutes. Most likely five.

2) I handed a random assembly function from the OS/2 1.x kernel to Gemini 3.5, and it proceeded to tell me that it was related to disk I/O and partitioning, without a single associated string, and it annotated it all, including the relevant structures it was addressing.

Looking back even further, games like Koronis Rift did a lot with much less. Still, both are impressive and brilliant.

It would be cool to leverage this proximity requirement to build a GnuPG web of trust. The one year 'weakening' would also help keep the web strong.
