I found it one of the worst written scifi flicks I've had the misfortune to watch.
Spoiler Of the many plot holes I think the worst is how a supreme intelligence is capable of scanning space coffins for signs of life, yet when one is flown in to its heart containing a fucking massive bomb it doesn't notice at all. Awful film.

Well - at least that's the vibe I got from the news night interview.
But, yeah - she is astoundingly pretty so what's the big deal?
EDIT: It's definitely got to be that as they're on about primary school. They're not going to fire all the existing teachers for ones with a background in IT... I see a very web 1.0 future for our nations youth.

which is why I was entertaining myself refamiliarising myself with some esoteric languages earlier today when what I was meant to be doing was riddled with some astonishing bugs despite being built from scratch with full unit test coverage. One of them was lolcode. Another was Chef, and another Shakespeare.
But I kind of thought this was the kind of thing for B3ta:
esolangs.org/wiki/Fuck4
Edit: I also have a soft spot for fuckfuck even though it's just a pallatte swap of brainfuck. this is hello world in fuckfuck, apparently:

I like this quote: "Mike Worth wrote a hello world program that can be followed as a functional (if slightly odd) recipe for a chocolate cake:" for Chef
Edit: This is the recipe for Hello World I remembered. "This recipe prints the immortal words "Hello world!", in a basically brute force way. It also makes a lot of food for one person."
