Every American's DNA was leaked and a malicious AI bot is making a customized oncovirus for each if they visit Washington, D.C. "Oops, our bad. Here's a coupon half-off Tamiflu."

Externalities of data breaches keep increasing.

You should write a modern cyberpunk story!

Dick is my middle (nick)name, but my name isn't Philip K. Dick. I'd be turgidly-pressed to write anything comprehensible, much less worth reading. And I'm already starving, I'd have to lop off more than my ears to be a proper starving artist... oh wait, that didn't come out right. Nothing to see here, carry on.

All i'm saying is that i liked your short vision of a possible reality, and i'd love to read even a short story about it. Hell, i'd _write_ a short story about it, although i doubt my english is good enough for anything beyond simple small talk; i envy people with more imagination than i have. That being said, why are you starving, man? I've gone through some of your comments, and it seems you are having some sort of trouble with the mind parasites. I have no idea whether it is possible to pm on hn, but, should you need an anonymous ear, i've been told i am a good listener. Otherwise, i just want to tell you that if you put your mind to it, you will find the source of power inside of you with some help or without, and things are going to work out. Oh, and read mind parasites if you can - it has helped me with my depression quite a bit.
