@OrionKidder@mas.to @pluralistic@mamot.fr I did like that point, how with a clear success criteria *and* being susceptible to brute force approaches, it can be successful.
It’s important because only a certain subset of real world problems meet that criteria. E.g. a lot of problems you only get the first chance to do it well, you can’t just keep trying over and over.

@troberts@theblower.au @pluralistic@mamot.fr Right. This is why we have to treat it like a normal technology, something Doctorow and Zitron have both said. It's a tool that does *some* things well. But that's it.
