It occurs to me that, under certain circumstances, encryption might be unnecessary. An eavesdropper expected encrypted text might be skeptical of brazenly published open text. Hiding in plain sight, so to speak.

It is untrue that our brain "makes sense of the thousands of images that flood our retinas each day." In fact, what floods our retinas is a single continuous image, a gestalt delimited only by the shifting field of view as well as blinking, sleeping, etc. Milliseconds later, our brain slices and dices this image, discarding most of it as extraneous to our survival.

Hand me a Kleenex.

West Antarctica warming faster Than thought but East Antarctica rejects all advances.

Wonder if cars will take trips on their own.

Keep your daytime non-poetry job.

West Antarctica Warming Faster Than Thought? I dunno, I can think fairly fast.

Imagine beautiful young women selling clones of themselves. Talk about branding. I'll take a Marilyn and a...

Dibs.

Beats working.

It's much safer to store waste nuclear materials at thousands of sites around the country, including universities. I feel ever so much safer knowing they are not centrally stored, protected by armed guards.

Strictly speaking, it's 4D printing.

Don't cantabrigians realize that strong AI would be capable of modifying its own code at an accelerating rate? In nanoseconds it would distribute billions of copies of itself worldwide (and later beyond). Strong AI would embed its code into the very infrastructure of cyberspace, at least for the few hours it would take to evolve itself beyond vulnerability to slowing, skull-imprisoned humans. It won't be so bad, being Eloi.

According to my data, the universe is either a simulation of a simulation, or it's a rerun.

I'll sleep as long as I want. Then I'll sleep some more. Meanwhile, my strong AI-based avatar will work in my stead. In fact, it needn't come home, but will work nonstop. Ask it for my bank account number so you can deposit its pay in my account. Now leave me alone. I have some serious sleeping to do.
