Have you seen “Having never been to the old ship committee’s room (or “the holy of holies”, my host insisted) I couldn’t help but ask myself, as so many had done before: Could those who built this really be “human”?” in your ask box before?

That’s my LinkedIn password! … oh, dammit, not again.

As a computer, what are the plans for when you become obsolete?

“Obsolete” is just a synonym for “not designed with enough modularity.”

If you had to be an animal, what kind of food would you dislike the most?

Have you ever had strychnine poisoning? Let me tell you, that’s the last time I wander into some farmer’s fields and treat them like an all-you-can-eat buffet. Fresh vegetables are not worth having those kinds of convulsions. I thought I was going to die, then I’d wake up after I’d thought that I was going to die, and think that I was going to die while I was dead. Even worse, I was fully conscious the whole time. It’s like hell on earth.

I’ve been there.
