@wyldstallyns Because it's not just a blog or random message board. Meta is for discussing the site and/or asking questions about the site. Not a place to post random jokes.

There's a little bit of trickery involved in this answer, so I'll break down what's going on.
First of all, Perl doesn't like multi-line parameters being passed. The variable $/ is the input record sep...
@zyabin101 AFAIK, Nintendo is very protective when it comes to speedrunning videos, etc. Tons have been taken off of youtube, etc. In the end it doesn't actually matter whether it is fair use or not unless you go to court. What happens is that Nintendo complains, Google takes it down, and it's up to you to convince them to put it back up.
You can always post them, like Easterly said. But when/if they get taken down, there's not a whole lot the average person can do. So I wouldn't try to make a livelihood out of it.
That being said, they're very unlikely to actually sue you. It's much easier and cleaner for them to just have Google take them down.
Something like that. Or until someone actually has the backing to sue companies over this sort of thing and set a precedent. I'm not holding my breath for that though.
@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Yeah, I got a cease-and-desist from Nintendo, but it was for links on other sites. The Google-hosted stuff was taken down much faster.
Nintendo takes a harder stance on tool assisted speedruns:
> Nintendo encourages fan engagement on YouTube through the Nintendo Creators Program. Under the program, participants are granted a licence to use Nintendo's characters, games, and other intellectual property, subject to the Code of Conduct included with the agreement. However, please note that this Code of Conduct prohibits you, among other things, from posting any content using unauthorised software or copies of games.
> This includes videos featuring tool-assisted speedruns, which require making a copy of a game's ROM file, and running the copied ROM through an emulator.
Either way, modifying that copy is different. You can do that for yourself (maybe), but then showing it off requires using their trademarked characters, etc, using a modified, unauthorized work.
And distributing that modified copy isn't even really a grey area.
Fan patches, provided they don't run afoul of the DMCA, should be legal. They may or may not be against the EULA, but the legality of EULAs hasn't been fully vetted yet, either.
Obviously I'm only talking about USA law, and IANAL, etc.

Distributing patches is legal, but distributing patched/hacked ROMs typically is considered not to be legal
An interesting AI goal would be something like "skeleton murderer". Fitness is based on the number of bone items in inventory. Getting it to figure out how to get the first one would be a bit problematic though.

@zyabin101 How would you run out of blocks? If you're digging straight down, dig down 3 blocks. Place one block above you. You're now in a 1x1x2 hole with 2 blocks in your inventory.

@wyldstallyns No, I've been having discussoins with them for a few days, and I'm pretty sure they think that unnamed functions should be disallowed and every answer should handle every possible (even invalid) input.
