This really is crazy. I'm sure this will only lead to i liar deals for TechStars and others. Angel Investing needs to evolve.

"The net effect of which is to make "programming" an exercise in (a) wanting to do something, (b) realizing that someone's probably done it before, (c) looking up what they did, and (d) tweaking it a little bit. As I tweak I begin to understand, and to become less a user of all this wonderful mess than a contributor to it."
I wouldn't say that's what programming is. I would say that's a good way to just create something simple. A thoughtful understanding of the entire stack is necessary to create a solid base, but given the fact many people just wan't something quick his approach should be fine.

Ask HN: How to know how good at coding you are?
I'm a student in college, and I use to think that I was fairly good at coding. But lately, I'm not sure.I was wondering if there are particularly principles of a good coder or some kind of pattern. I find myself coding well and quick when I'm interested and motivated, but other times I'm slow and just procrastinating.

Re:The Loebner prize completely misrepresents Turing’s paper

You're second quote is horribly out of context. Turing says using a survey to describe machines as thinking beings in the commonly used sense of the words is absurd, not the question of "Can a machine think?".
