On Maximizing Intelligence
What is a classic? It is something that persists over time, like Plato’s Republic or Bach’s Toccata and Fugue in D minor.

BABYLON A.D. II
I restarted a book I left ten years ago. Satellite Sister by Maurice Dantec, the sequel to its Babylon Babies. The story has an amazing cyberpunk setting, taking place in 2030, involving space race, global governance, UNollar, Richard Brandson. It’s the perfect Deus Ex bootleg. Unfortunately this book does not exist in English, but I…
