    I think you are right that this is going to be a fight, it's going to be a huge fight. There are many large and profitable organisations with a lot at stake here. I would not be surprised if this makes that **aa battles of today look tame in comparison.

    These devices, as they become cheaper and better, have absolutely massive potential for humanity. But todays world is increasingly $'s focused instead of benefits focused. I would like to see humanity win but I fear the corporations (in the short term at least) will be too powerful.

  2. Mastermind by high_rolla · · Score: 1 · on The Games Programmers Play

    I always like the game Mastermind as a quick game to play when I have a few spare minutes.

    Exactly, I don't think we can consider this seriously until we are much closer to actually having the project ready to launch. Even then I don't really think it will be a matter of putting your hands up to volunteer. I'm sure the crew will be selected from a small group of already highly trained and experienced people.

    Anyways, even though it would probably start off as a one way trip, what's to say that a few years down the track technology hasn't improved enough to get them back. Especially with the pace at which it seems to be improving now that private enterprise is getting into the game.

    Interestingly there was a similar discussion on this at CreativityGames.net a few months ago.

    Agree completely with this. Not only that but a skilled educator can give you challenges (ie tut work and assessments) that will push you and develop your understanding further than you realise it needs to go.

    I like to use the game of Mastermind as an example. It's one thing to know the rules. It's another completely to understand how you go about cracking the code. I have found this game to be a good way to show many students that they need to improve their problem solving ability and logical thinking.
