I can't tell if this is a joke.
Nice job. Left you an upvote.
Carl Sagan has a better acclaimed book on the topic.
Meaning it's possible most of the users just signed up to check it out without committing to the site later?
Anyway, congrats.
Look at the front page now, how many submissions are about AI, tell me?

The crazy thing is I hadn't been online on Twitter for almost a month [1]. I hadn't logged in at all. So how could I have broken any rules?
Was it just a way to get me to log back in? Well, I logged in after getting the email to appeal the suspension and they told me to wait for feedback.
If I lose my Twitter account I won't lose any sleep over it.
Ask HN: What is the most career altering course or book you have gone through?
Just a line to show that I am alive & kicking and going grand. It's a treat.
Yours, WJR
I'm going to copy a previous comment I made two hours ago on a different submission and say that If you enjoyed reading this, I suggest you read the book "Billions and Billions: Thoughts on Life and Death at the Brink of the Millennium" by Carl Sagan. It was the last book he wrote before he died in 1996. The book contains a collection of essays by Carl Sagan on various topics, and it includes the essay submitted above.
Thank you.
Thank you.
