OP here. I see where you're coming from and I even agree with you. I seek and like tech posts on HN.

That being said, I enjoy reading (and writing) human stories as well! Plus, it's nice to read the many stories people are sharing in the comments of this post. It shows that our community isn't as cold/ruthless as some may think :)

For sure, like I said, it isn't about this (your) post. Just wanted to make a small amount of noise about keeping hn aligned with the interest I associate it with.

Very cute story though, commend you for observing such truths in your parenting.

thank you so much for sharing your story :)

indeed! :D

old school, but good. :) I remember enjoying reading this tremendously when it was released.

the graphics in it make it so much better

It can be done as an adult as well, but it requires more work!

or more that dividing a problem is a subset of this concept.

You’re too kind! Thank you for saying so, it means a lot.

Just because you say "People are machines though" without blinking, doesn't make it true :-) Dogs rule; but yeah they aren't people.

People aren't machines, true, but dogs are very nearly people!
