The Stochastic Game

Ramblings of General Geekery

Not too much walking for the good fluffy boy right now: he’s got a small paw infection and is limping a bit… should be cleared in a few days!


My favourite big sci-fi movie bad trope is “protagonist gets hired at the last minute to lead a super important mission that was years in the making”. That’s solid project management, there, Bob… (and yes, I know why it makes sense narratively speaking)
