Illuminating humanity once again

Revisado: 01-11-23

I love the way that Stephen King illuminates what it is to be human. He’s done it again here, not his best, but certainly worth reading.

Incredible story and performance

Revisado: 08-24-21

There’s something incredibly light but beautiful about the story, and the performance brings this out perfectly. I will be thinking about the story for a long time, and I highly recommend it to anyone who is curious about how technology will blend with society in the future.

Now we’re getting somewhere in AI

Revisado: 04-05-21

This appears to be the first theory in artificial intelligence and brain science that actually lays out an architecture of the brain consistent with the experimental evidence and that provides a pathway to actual intelligence. Finally – progress lies ahead.

Groundbreaking book

Revisado: 07-02-20

This book is groundbreaking into areas. The first is the revealing of how we can understand causality in our world, something I never gave much thought to before. Second is how causality and it’s three stages can be applied to artificial intelligence to create reasoning moral robots and thinking machines that can become an accepted and useful part of human society. Truly astounding!

The nitty-gritty of the PCT

Revisado: 12-27-19

This book is focused largely on the day-to-day details of life hiking the PCT. The reader gets a full view of what this is really like. And enough details about relationships on the trail and some background of the author’s life flesh out the human stories involved. I would highly recommend it to anyone thinking about hiking the PCT, or to those armchair hikers who would like to experience the trail vicariously. Highly recommended.

Excellent characters

Revisado: 08-16-18

Ken Follet draws characters that come to life on the page, to use an old saying. But truthfully, I was engaged for the struggles and welfare of these people as if they were someone I knew. Highly recommended.

Spiritual message delivered

Schaeffer delivers an incredibly spiritual message, more than most fundamentalists can comprehend.

Highly recommended for those who are on a spiritual path.

Narration killed this book for me

Revisado: 04-06-18

I could only listen to a small portion of this book before I had to give it up because of the naration. The narrator sounds like a cross between Jimmy Stewart and John Wayne and has very little nuance in his voicing and hardly any variety in the tempo of his delivery. This is unfortunate, because Todd McLaren did an outstanding job in the first two books. I’d gladly listen to this book if it is ever recorded again with Todd McLaren as the narrator.
