I just imagine Jeff Goldblum intoning "You thought you had control?".
I am a slow coder, I try things out, experiment and keep my old code somewhere. Eventually I hit on a problem and think "hey I wrote something that did that... where was it".
Now give me a billion years of trying out code. I will have some serious tricks :-)

Evolution and life is a constant “spy vs. spy” cat & mouse game to capture and defend energy. For example, industrial-scale meat agriculture is suicidal and omnicidal because it is a perfect “Petri dish” bioreactor accelerating the evolution of pandemic diseases and antibiotic resistance... it should be illegal because it’s an anthropogenic risk we created unnecessarily. It’s interesting how viruses could be considered life if you count that they do replicate, albeit parasitically, and they do defend energy by making more of themselves (whereas lions eat deer or humans eat potato chips and get fat and/or reproduce).
