No mods required. Vanilla Minecraft! Impressive - both that he did it, and that he actually thought of this.

If you are passionate enough about something, you can always find time to do it. Most people waste several hours a day doing nothing of value

I'm not going to look, but I seem to recall seeing a video of a Minecraft Turing Machine a few years back.

Any idea on what's involved in getting started in minecraft programming?

Well, the first step is to give up hopes of ever getting laid again. After you accept that, you're well on your way.

In vanilla Minecraft? Basically just a computer, a copy of Minecraft, and a straight-jacket.
Programming even basic circuits in vanilla is so needlessly complex that attempting to build anything non-trivial is tantamount to madness. This is mainly due to the fact that redstone dust only sits on surfaces, making wiring things above and below each other require staircases to carry the signal.
There are however mods that make things easier, such as redpower, which add individual blocks that function as OR/AND/NAND/XOR gates and etc., as well as adding things like redwire which supports running wiring up sheer walls and crossing wires without crossing signals. These really help reduce the complexity of devices (in size and blocks required at least.)
I have to imagine that anyone building anything of significant size like this would be using a world editor instead of attempting to build directly in game. The simple ability to copy and paste existing structures really streamlines the building process (and helps with refactoring when you realize you have one redstone torch out of place in 64 different locations...)

My significant other has a new problem at work...
She have to write (and read) a lot of SMS messages...she asked me for a way to do it from the laptop...So I Googled for some software (it will take me too long to write a decent one), but all I found is not that satisfying (SMS Deliverer was the best I found)...
Have any of you a real hit to do the job?

Someone who uses my webcam movement detection software[^] contacted me some time ago letting me know that they had managed to integrate the .NET code with an Android application:Wifi SMS communication[^] in order to send sms alerts, rather than emails, on movement detection.
I gave it a go and was successful too - I don't have the app on my phone any longer or the code to send the sms however I imagine you should not have to much difficulty getting it to work.
