    Spend some of my existence living as a cat. Then visit Jupiter moons. I mean, that's if we get the good singularity/AGI. If we get the bad USA late capitalism and fascist AGI then …

    How many engineers does it take to fix a bug? Hardware Engineers: "None. We'll fix it in firmware." Firmware Engineers: "None. We'll fix it in software." Software Engineers: "None.…
