Don't they always? And complex machinery - wall clock, CPU, or
wheelbarrows - is not just money.
Wheelbarrows are the scarcest, and least 'renewable' resource any of
us will ever have.
So we must adapt to what we have while we invent better wheelbarrows.
When wheelbarrows start to adapt to US, we should become very, very
wary, 'coz they will have become smarter than we are, and they will
also have become either certifiably insane to make the attempt or
clever liars to fake it.
