Yes, please do demonstrate an ancient source of coverage-guided fuzzing, I would be very interested in that.

  I think you could make a point that it would be a practical implementation of the "Infinite Monkey Theorem" made practical by extension of Moore's law.. I think the original author expresses disappointment in the lack of fundamental new developments in system research and he has a point. Then again the wheel hasn't changed much in recent history either..

    I suspect you're not very familiar with modern fuzzing research because improvements in this area are definitely not simply a manifestation of Moore's law. Many clever and rather fundamental advancements have been invented and implemented here; for instance, the combination of symbolic execution with concrete execution known as concolic testing.
