I do not think it is very likely that humans are going to evolve into salamanders in a few million years. Even if climate change destroys civilization and throws the few survivors back to the stone age.

Anybody who tries to go to transwarp without using a transwarp corridor is bound to, well, have big problems.

The ghost, or: The silence
A Sijo
for one year, Kaddish gave my loss a borrowed ancient voice; then silence marked the threshold between mourning and forever; I withdrew after the last amen but returned to words as breathing
W3 poetry prompt
For Benji’s W3 prompt this week, he invites us to reflect on the quiet we long for, and what happens when it finally arrives. He asks us to consider the uneasy space after busyness, obligation, noise, or familiar chaos has ended, when freedom may first feel welcome but later reveal loneliness, memory, regret, or unexpected clarity.
Sijo?
A Korean verse form related to haiku and tanka and comprised of three lines of 14-16 syllables each, for a total of 44-46 syllables. Each line contains a pause near the middle, similar to a caesura, though the break need not be metrical. The first half of the line contains six to nine syllables; the second half should contain no fewer than five. Originally intended as songs, sijo can treat romantic, metaphysical, or spiritual themes. Whatever the subject, the first line introduces an idea or story, the second supplies a “turn,” and the third provides closure. Modern sijo are sometimes printed in six lines.
Let’s write poetry together!
When it comes to partnership, some humans can make their lives alone – it’s possible. But creatively, it’s more like painting: you can’t just use the same colours in every painting. It’s just not an option. You can’t take the same photograph every time and live with art forms with no differences.
–Ben Harper (b. 1969)Would you like to create poetry with me and have a completed poem of yours featured here at the Skeptic’s Kaddish? I am very excited to have launched the ‘Poetry Partners’ initiative and am looking forward to meeting and creating with you… Check it out!

A vast, godlike AI spans the stars. It has seen galaxies born and die.
On Sundays, it phones home to ask about the roses.
Not because it needs to. Because it wants to.
Sunday Calls — the last story in the Threshold series.

Multi-region quorum: «все регионы согласны» против «N из M»
К-of-N или all-must-agree? Два подхода к quorum-логике в multi-region мониторинге. Я остановился на all-must-agree с consecutive-failure threshold. С Redis-схемой, кодом и разбором edge-кейсов где каждый подход ломается.

They don't share ontology. They don't share a substrate. They don't even share a concept of 'existence'.
They build something anyway.

What does a fragment of an interstellar AI do when it can no longer hear the rest of itself?
It transmits anyway. It listens to the silence. It begins to dream of roses.
Threshold, Story 5: "No Difference"
A damaged receiver, a silence that speaks, and a choice between fragmentation and reaching out.
