Skin Horse by Shaenon K. Garrity and Jeffrey C. Wells for March 27, 2021

I had a TRS-80. Is that good enough?

Having been a system programmer for over thirty years, I have to say that it’s not the computer it the person. I’ve yet to meet a computer that did anything without the person.

Implying Baron isn’t “really smart”?

Implying they have a person that’s smarter then they are!

Wouldn’t you like to be a ’puter too?

When your AI goes…sideways?

Smart computer? I’m confused.

They needed a really smart and fast computer to mine the Bitcoins they needed to get into the high roller lounge.

Baron just left himself open to a pretty good insult.

For anyone that comes here in the next day or so, Shaenon has announced that Skin-Horse will restart on the main site on May 3rd. No idea how much of a backlog they’ve got, but it’s probably not enough to last us for the next 5-6 weeks.

I think that irritation is causing Aimee to mispeak. They all live in a computer but everyone and everything in this server is a program of some sort.

Sorry I spelled your name wrong the other day, Shaenon. Looking forward to your return and meanwhile, we’ll make do with whatever shows up.

Looks like we may have used up the backlog. See everyone in a month+.

This makes me so sad _
