Discussion on question by SpaceLizard: "Life post-Singularity", or "How to survive without Instagram"

If you did the world analog, it wouldn't know you were doing the work. The thought that it could adapt did cross my mind, but as I said, it should be possible to insulate Eve from the work (there's this notion of "close circuit" networks: Eve cannot infect these, same way that Stuxnet didn't spread outside Iraq for a decade).

Sounds like Eve is no different than your average Windows update. I'd look there for ideas.
