Lynn Pettis, the difference in genetic structure between humans and chimps is around 4%. The pickyness of evolution is what gave rise to humans. One error in one line of code could result in AI eradicating biological life. We need to teach our developing programmers that pickyness is everything. 😉
The QotD is a simple test of knowledge, and sometimes the question has some errors. No one is going to die because of an error in the QotD. To expect perfection in every question is ridiculous. That is like expecting users to know precisely what they want from developers every time they make a request. Not going to happen because we are all just human and imperfect at that.

I wasn't criticizing the QotD, I think it's great. Finding errors in questions is in itself an extension to the question, and further tests our knowledge.
