Interesting point. Do you like naturalist sweat, or the more expensive
Dali sweat, or maybe even the post-structuralist sweat that is all the
rage now in France? :-)
This idea reminds me of a roleplaying game I ran some years ago. The main
character was an alcoholic programmer that had been involuntarily uploaded,
and worked relentlessly to create the perfect virtual whiskey from
chromatographic data, neural information and hydrodynamic simulations. The
main corporate AI was constantly nagging him for spending the computing
budget on frivolous things like this, when there were already a simple
raytraced whiskey with an efficient laminar flow equation in the object
database...
