VOY 5x08: Nothing Human
Tack a couple holo-emmiters onto the bridge and we’re golden.
But he’s EEEEEVILLLL
Oh, you say that because of the goatee? Have you seen Futurama?
Don’t worry, the computer is equipped with Turing compensators that let it figure out whether Kim’s program will halt or not.
This is why, as a joke, Harry Kim is being promoted by his superior officers.
Though it is happening recursively, without having specified an exit condition.
Now now he’s not Tuvix.
Oooh burn.
The look on his face is just priceless though: like “yay!”, kinda like recursive loops hoping that they will terminate, but bc he wrote them they won’t ever get that chance.
Like a (phaser) shot to the heart, Janeway likes to kill two things the best: Tuvix, and Kim’s hopes of a promotion.:-)
Me: “Computer, <babbles technojargon nonsense>!”
Computer: explodes
Every time Harry does that, they just pull a Latent Image (5x11) on the computer.
Come to think of it, Harry was the one whose comment in the teaser set off all the events in Latent Image.
Fan theory: Harry has a sadistic erasing-intelligent-computer-programs’-memories fetish. “Erotic compuamnesophillia” if you will.
def recursive_algorithm(x): If 1 + x == 2: recursive_algorithm(2) else: exit() recursive_algorithm(1)
A bit nitpicky, but wouldn’t that illustrate installing an algorithm recursively and not installing an algorithm that’s recursive?
Lead Dev Dormammu in his own personal hell.
Thank Radia Perlman for Spanning Tree 🙏
Edit: Although that doesn’t help with the problem of both PCs having the same IP-Adress.
I totally missed that part…
So did I at first, hence the edit.
