An interresting diary posted a few days ago concluded that Adequacy needs "a fuck load less geeks". Obviously, the recent Mandrake article is an attempt to implement a geek filter as suggested by otak in that diary (although in a slightly altered form).

Of course noone commenting in the story was that clever, but who knows, even a script kiddie might suddenly show some unexpected creativity.
