        Does quantum porn mean that the old in-and-out trick can be both in and out at the same time?

            Boston Dynamics have retired the hydraulic Atlas that we’re all familiar with. They’re replacing it with an all-electric model:

            I have a feeling this new model is the one that’s going to be pushing us over with sticks and knocking shit out of our hands.

              On the off chance that you are a fan of Anthony Burgess . . . . and possibly one who appreciates Joyce.

              It’s time for (me) for a re-read of Re-Joyce, reviewed here 14 years ago.

              Book Review: "ReJoyce" by Anthony Burgess

              Book Review: "ReJoyce" by Anthony Burgess

              To paraphrase the opening lines of the "Scylla and Charybdis" episode of Ulysses , this is "a great writer on a great brother writer." ...

              “My book does not pretend to scholarship, only to a desire to help the average reader who wants to know Joyce’s work but has been scared off by the professors. The appearance of difficulty is part of Joyce’s big joke; the profundities are always expressed in good round Dublin terms; Joyce’s heroes are humble men.”

              –From the Foreword by Anthony Burgess.

              "laissez les bons temps rouler!"

                  Where did they think their salaries come from?

                  Where were they when China killed all those Muslims or crushed Hong Kong?

                      Google isn’t really in China. So that’s not where the salaries come from.

                          True. I’m quite confused by what everyone wants me to think!

                            I’d rather take the unemployment than work at google anyway. No way any position there could be rewarding.

                              They pay very well to software developers and it’s a big stepping stone to a successful career later on. And even if that isn’t good enough and you don’t want to work there, just leave. Don’t make some worthless “occupy Google” protest that achieves nothing and possibly fucks up your future career prospects.

                                    Yes, but there’s a catch. If you beat the AI they will sue you.

                                            I agree, that was never going to actually solve anything, but you can’t collect unemployment if you quit! Or can you? I don’t actually know.
