                          @nina_kali_nina@tech.lmucho still cannot get my head around the idea of "negotiating" with a computer and gaslighting it with natural language, as a real hacking technique

                                      I figure there was only one computer - the computer. Not like today with a virtual machine on any lever close by to test stuff.

                                      I think this was how things where at the time, also in reality at The Swedish Social Insurance Agency and their Bull Cobol machines - you coded in prod and just solved the thing where it was needed.
                                      I recall this from a tour I had some 20 years ago when I was an employee but 20 years is a long time to mess upp memories so I might be wrong.

                                          When I first watched War Games (1983) I thought "wow, so weird, not only they had terrible password management, but their test 'AI' system was directly linked to the prod".

                                          Ha-ha.
