Gundam Seed

[Rydis]

If XP were written in Lisp and the person had a terminal connection of some sort to the OS REPL, then reasonably, it could be done. If the OS were well-written and designed, a major change could be enacted within a minute, although anything more than a few changes might require some automated development tools and maybe even AI to help -- not so unreasonable in any Gundam universe. Then again, Lisp lends itself to creating powerful abstractions that allow you to manage lots of functionality with minimal code, so a genius coder might be able to get by without any extra tools.

If the whole "changing things on the fly" idea really seems that unreal, consider a real world example. Viaweb was an online web application for building stores written in Common Lisp. Before Viaweb was bought by Yahoo! (making Paul Graham and the other founders rich), they used to debug problems and fix them on the running web server within a matter of a few minutes. They'd fix problems while users were still on the phone with them for support, and almost make them believe there wasn't a problem to begin with. No interruptions.

Or better yet, just look up as much as you can on Lisp Machines and developing on them.

It's really not as far-fetched as it seems.

That is interesting, so I guess it would be possible.

[Feez]

Well, not Jesus Jesus.  He is too emo for that.  But I wouldn't be suprised if he could heal Cancer by shotting them with a beam from the Freedom.

What an interestingtheory, they should try something like that in the upcoming movie.

Mwu, since he somehow survived his entire gundam being blown to smitheriens while he was in it, and then come up with a minor scar and amnesia, and also wasn't found by the archangel where he blew up

Pretty amazing.

Kira's Strike Gundam has no nuclear generator since the earth is covered with neutron jammers & what part of of GS or GSD that Kira got blown with a nuclear explosion?

hes right. When Shinn destroys freedom. Freedom uses a nuclear reacter, though that explosion clearly isn't nuclear.

Plot hole!

Supposedly, Shinn didn't destory the NUCLEAR REACTOR (and crotchpit), but destroyed everything else.

Thats what they did with Athrun also when Shinn Destroyed his Gundam.  Just the cockpit survived.  However, unlike Strike/Athrun red one from Seed, the strike when Mwu pioleted it was completly destroyed. The only part that survived the exploision was the head. The beam that hit it was strong enough to sink the archangel so tell me not only how he could of survived when the entire thing was destroyed, and the fact that he wasn't even found by people who would of looked. Kira was even found lost in space.

In the SEED Special Editions--which are taking to be the most accurate depiction of Fukuda's canon--show Mwu lying in space. Quick flashbacks in Destiny show Djibril and how he found Mwu and restored him to health, etc. It really isn't explained fully, but hey, it happened.

only special I saw as after phase. Ill be mad if they pull this with GSD and release the original ending not Final Plus.

Mwu is incredibly manly, that is how he surrived.  How else except someone who is Man-incarnate could survive blowing up, and then surviving in space without a helmet?

The Freedom had a Neutron Jammer Canceler equipped.  The mobile suit was powered by a nuclear reactor, and when Shinn stabbed it, it chain reacted.  That huge-ass explosion after the fact had to be nuclear.  A convensional mobile suit doesn't blow up that much.

True, but explosion is limited due to the neutron jammer still in effect.  When a nuclear explosion occur, neutrons are prevented to collide with other neutrons because of the neutron jammer thus limiting the explosion.

Yeah whatever, it doesn't really matter guys, the balls are inert.

In other words, Kira was too powerful to die from such a small explosion.

I suppose they did tone down the explosion, because the Impulse was right next to the Freedom when it chain reacted, but the explosion was still much bigger and more powerful than normal.

But it still lacks EMP & radiation which comes after the nuclear explosion.  Its just a normal explosion since it lacks the traits of a nuclear explosion.
