One thing I realized in school, especially with the standardized testing, was that they viewed ME as an algorithm, and were giving me these sort of turing tests to see how good I was. I intentionally botched those tests because I didn't want to be a deterministic algorithm in a Bill Gates database with sortable columns for all my different traits and ability to "compare" me to other "students". Adding bad data to their statistics, is a past time I am fond of.
I have noticed quite a few programmers like to spend their time on conspiracy forums. Always interesting to hear what they say.
Totally agree, great comment.
