I'm not sure which part of this is sadder. That my internal heuristics are so pathetic, or that I'm considering my behaviour in these terms.

Or possibly that I tried to do debugging on the way home? If we run it again...

I'm more worried about the fact that you waited until you were almost home before deciding to go get the coffee.

Well, I didn't decide so much as completely forget that I needed it until then. Obviously 'get coffee' was not weighted enough compared to 'go home and collapse write essays.' *nods*

Well, live and adjust your heuristic.

Yes! Watch me learn as I go!

I am *so* an intellegent system.

Not me. I'm a hill-climber; I reach a local maxima and I'm done. :)

dude. coffee's important, yo - I've totally done stuff like that to ensure proper caffeine/blood percentages. in fact, it took me a moment to figure out just what was wrong with the picture. *g*

*g* It would probably be less funny if you didn't know I was just leaving a lecture on goal states and autonomous agents.

But. *points to time stamp* You're right, and I had the feeling coffee was going to be *very* important tonight.

Um. *pokes timestamp* Since when do I live in England, LJ? You are totally undermining my point!
