Why Python? Why not Racket or Scheme? If they're cons, then they should have a language with some name appeal. But seriously, it's time to go functional. I've always considered Python as a stop-gap emergency replacement of Perl. Good. Now we need to find a more permanent solution.
"Elite" is BS, IMHO. MIT-Homeworld could take on ten times the students and not see a drop in performance. That is to say, they're running way under capacity. So are many other "elite" universities. I think a healthy number for a STEM U should be at least 100k -- a veritable city of STEM maniacs. So that's not physically possible, realistic? Go MOOC, MIT. And to weed out the accomplished cheaters, have the student come to MIT-Homeworld for a semester or a year and work on "projects" that would require having mastered the material supposedly done online. (No final exam/oral defense pressure, anxiety necessary.) Once a proven ace, then the MIT sheepskin.
The Der Spiegel article has details of his times in Berlin and all the things he did there. I think he was around Conny Plank in Duesseldorf as well. But again, Krautrock was never any sort of rock as we knew it. I remember hearing about Kraftwerk's first American tour (after the "hit" "Autobahn") and how audiences were frustrated with them not playing anything to "boogie" to.
Meaningless. . . totally meaningless. . .

Turing Test Passed

. . . there are so-called live humans passing the Turing Test every day. But we're not allowed to call them what they really are: wet-ware automatons.

God plays this trick on me all the time. But I purposefully flunk the tests so He'll leave me the x!y@z+ alone.
