[sudo-discuss] Cupcake Challenge

[Eric O'Connor]

https://wiki.hackerspaces.org/Global_Hackerspace_Cupcake_Challenge_2022 

Ideas:
- cupcake compressor/maximizer — 4 lb cubic cupcake 
- on-site robotic manufacturing 
- an internal gyroscope keeps the cupcake upright 
- sacrifice on taste, focus on our strengths (compressive strength:  https://www.researchgate.net/publication/331801189_Mathematical_to_Predict_the_Compressive_Strength_of_Sugar_Cane_Bagasse_Ash_Cement_Concrete )
- judging without input validation — include 0x80000000 references to “fragile” or “handle with care” on the box and hope for int32 wrap around 
- SEO growth hack: use GPT-3 to write thousands of blog posts referencing the cupcake (+3 points each) 
- shoot the moon: achieve a perfect minimal score without being disqualified, because all press is good press.
