I'd call a 3-year-old stabbing someone incredible. Terrible, but incredible.

I see no relevancy in that whatsoever.


... somewhat back on topic now, I have also noticed that children seem more and more intelligent with each generation. This is partly because children learn more easily than adults, and the technology around them is familiar to them, because they are exposed to it at such a young age.

I know the movie was loaded with inaccuracies, but remember Hackers? When the main character was a child, he was responsible for crashing a major computer network. The "Pluto's Kiss" scenario reminds me of that movie.

[EDIT]: Oops! Quoted the wrong person! All fixed now!

.... First off, don't doublepost.

Secondly, don't just post a QUOTE of yourself, that's incredibly stupid.

Thirdly, what you said had NOTHING to do with what I said in the first place!!

I don't think that kids are necessarily more intellegent than they used to be. Human beings do not have much more of a capacity for intellegence than they did during the neolithic revolution. We're the same, but the world around us is different. Our -knowledge- is different, not our minds. We know things that they didn't back then, and it's the same with every generation. Kids learn more things at younger ages because they are exposed to it at a younger age. Technology would surround kids in the time of .hack, as the internet has taken over EVERYTHING.. it's like how every kid in the 60s knew how to ride a bike, play baseball, stuff like that.. common knowledge, you know? It's the same as the kids in .hack. They get on the internet every day, do everything there, know how to work with the technology they're surrounded with... and are likely at the level of your 'genius' computer nerd of today.

I say that a young kid could probably make Pluto's Kiss because

One: Their morals are probably not yet established at that age.

Two: It's probably considered 'fun'.

Most importantly, Three: Children tend to easily understand things they are taught because they are extremely open minded and easily influenced. There is little sense of doubt or limitations in their mind, and they often have a very different way of looking at things than adults do. Having that different point of view is often the key to success where others could not succeed before. Looking at something from another perspective has always been the best way to achieve better results.

So, what may have boggled an older programmer may seem easy for a child who can look at the 'problem' (in this case, the limitations of technology and programming) in a different way and see the easiest solution.
