hi Kristina,

Hard to say exactly really, I think some of it comes from just wanting everything (one day) to be ok. That and the existential nightmare of standing on the brink of something big and unknown like the universe or our perception of it .

I believe that science can address many of the issues we’re facing through genuine AI (not the statistical nonsense that most commentary is about), physics (like the Wolfram Physics Project that is trying to understand the fundamental nature of reality), and space travel (we just have to get out there, at the moment we’re a tiny smear of life on an insignificant planet).

Software’s a big part of my life so I like to write about that, usually with a bit of dry humor and cynicism, as people really do tend to get in the way when there are real things to be done. I’m sure that applies to many fields…

It’s all extremely cathartic too!
