How do any of those things fit that definition?

Code can fit the definition. Genetic algorithms.
Yep.

People always come up with people-centric definitions. They need to be updated based on what are the fundamental characteristic of something that is alive.

The current, more standard definition, seems to be based on metabolism. I disagree and argue for reproduction and evolution.
