Is it wrong that I want them to call their baby Eight, and refer to the baby as Baby 8? And teach it boops and whistles instead of English?

I’m gonna suggest you not post about those Mpow lights again. I bought one of them on an Amazon sale a little while ago and tried it out in my carport. It seemed fantastic, so a few days later, on an even better deal, I bought a four-pack of them.

I have yet to see a motherboard sacrificed in order to appease the wrath of my flame wars.

Don’t sell yourself short. Commenting online is a perfectly noble use of an anthropology degree. Future cultures will no doubt assume we worshiped our most successful commenters.

I think it’s fair to say that Heinlein’s politics changed throughout his life (though he himself denied such a shift). Annalee Newitz did a great piece on this controversy just last year:

Some of the stress comes from competetive parenting.
