OK, this is a bad test group for this, but I need my faith in human intelligence restored*. The Google doodle for Alan Turing's birthday; charming, yes but complicated, no, right? I mean frankly even if you can't figure out what the little symbols mean, there are so few options in most of them that they can be solved by case exhaustion. I guess you have to figure out that you can press the buttons to alter the program flow, but really, they're buttons, that should be pretty clear, yes? I ask because when you finish, it takes you to search results for Turing, which of course includes news articles about the doodle, including one on CNET describing it as too difficult for ordinaries and a Youtube vid of a walk through. I just... how can this need a walk through? I despair of humanity sometimes.

Why no, I haven't finished my reports yet. Why do you ask :)

* because most of you are smarter than the average bear, obviously, not the other way around.

I *think* the essay must be on a USB stick whose existance I recall but whose whereabouts is currently uncertain (probably at school somewhere) but there's a distinct possibility that I might have deleted them because I thought they were also on Dropbox when they weren't, which would be quite annoying. Ah well, can't be helped if that is the case, I suppose, but must be more careful in future.

Emptied of expectation. Relax.
