Hello other non-cs person!

Are there any takedowns of Girard out there?
At least it wasn’t a cock ring.
The starshot people just found that out the hard way, not sure if it also holds for breakthrough listen.
Dude is a serious narcissist.
Man I’m getting some great recommendations out of this.
You had me at the dyscalculia part!
I’ll have to try some of this then!
OT: I had a realization awhile back that I’d basically cut American scifi out of my life. The politics are just gross to me now, and the overseas stuff is just plain more fun.
What comes out of the states seems to reduce to libertarian (closeted white nationalist) wank fodder, and I guess its been this way since…Campbell? Certainly Niven-Pournelle. It just got gross.
(Partially prompted by me listening to Iron Council again).
I keep meaning to reread it and report back on zeerust aspects!
Ted Chiang rules.
Does Anissimov count?
