I’m currently rebuilding the website as the old one got totally messed up when i was playing around with things (no idea what happened).
So i thought that while it was a total clusterfuck mess of SQL, i would take the opportunity to give it a whole new life and everything.
So if you go clicking on things you might find that very strange things happen. Don’t moan, i know a lot of things are broken, i’m working on it, it takes time.
I’ve got tons of old posts and pages from three websites that i’m working through and will be gradually posting all the stuff i want to keep on here while fixing all the broken things as i go through, one post, one page, at a time.
On top of doing all that, i will, of course, be continuing to add more new content and my latest posts will always appear directly below.
Or, if you prefer, you can also follow me on Twitter and Pinterest where i put a link to all new posts.
Enjoy

The Tercentenary Incident — Isaac Asimov
This is in the collection, The Complete Robot.
Now what if we could replace the president of the USA with a completely identical, fully functioning, robot, one that is governed by the three laws?
Now that would be a huge improvement.
Next up is going to be, First Law.

Mirror Image — Isaac Asimov
This is in the collection, The Complete Robot.
Another story like the previous one, where you already know which mathmetician is lying long before the big reveal, but you read it anyway just coz you want to see how the detective comes to the same conclusion.
Mostly it’s just a simple story introducing us to the
Next up is going to be, The Tercentenary Incident.

Let’s Get Together — Isaac Asimov
This is in the collection, The Complete Robot.
A fairly “meh” story. If you can’t guess what’s going on long before you’re told in the story then you’re a bit lacking in something.
But, one has to read the whole of the robot stories so one just has to accept that there’s going to be the odd one that just lacks somewhat and just get on and read it.
Next up is going to be, Mirror Image.

Robbie — Isaac Asimov
This is in the collections, I, Robot, The Complete Robot and Robot Visions.
Another super good little story wherein we look at the future of childcare in our AI future, a future coming to a town near you.
Also the first story in which Susan Calvin appears, albeit briefly, as a young student.
Next up is going to be, Let’s Get Together.

You first idea is rarely your best idea. It can take a lot of reps before you discover something worth keeping.”

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde — Robert Louis Stevenson
This is a book that i used for typing practice over at TypeLit.
It’s rather an enjoyable way to read a book, while at the same time being incredibly useful in improving ones typing.
And this book is a really good book to read as well as type. One of the absolute classics, but, sadly, one that most people have never read.
Well worth a read or a type for everyone.
Anyways, i typed this shortly after i built my 5t4n5-48 Rev 1, which was quite some time ago now, but it’s never too late to get things posted.
And here’s how i managed back then . . .
I’ll get around to adding some more as i complete them, but for now, this is a good measure of where i was at back in April.

Light Verse — Isaac Asimov
This is in the collection, The Complete Robot.
Sometimes a broken thing can be far better than a perfect thing: wabi-sabi robots.
I totally remembered this story from when i read it decades ago, but it was just as enjoyable yesterday as it was all those years ago.
Next up is going to be, Segregationist.
