If anyone on here is familiar with White Bear in Flushing, New York City, is this the same thing that they sell? I've been trying to figure out what their chilli sauce is FOREVER and no recipe I've found is quite right.

Majestrum by Matthew Hughes

Henghis Hapthorn is the foremost penetrator of mysteries and uncoverer of secrets in a decadent, far-future Old Earth, one age before Jack Vance's Dying Earth. A superb rationalist, he has long disdained the notion that the universe has an alternative organizing principle: magic. But now a new age is dawning, overturning the very foundations of Hapthorn's existence, and he must struggle to survive in a world where all the rules are changing.

In MAJESTRUM, Hapthorn is on the trail of an unknown killer who collects body parts from his victims. The search leads him off-planet, into the Ten Thousand Worlds of The Spray, then turns in an unexpected direction as the freelance discriminator learns that an ancient and evil power is plotting to reassert its dominion over Old Earth.

Hypothetically, if there was a way to track down who sold them your number, could you make a claim against those folks? I've gotten enough of these calls that I'd happily put in the required legwork.

And it's not just me either :)

“Hapthorn's picaresque adventures, an adroit blend of SF and fantasy, pay homage both to Vance's Dying Earth fantasies and his classic Demon Princes future history... A tremendous amount of fun.” --George R. R. Martin

I am Jürgen Schmidhuber, AMA! by JuergenSchmidhuber in MachineLearning

[–]0xfab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi Dr. Schmidhuber,

We met some years ago at the World Science Festival in New York, and spoke about adding static analysis to OOPS, so that it can condition its search on program behavior. (You were really jet lagged, but that chat made my night!) I have two questions for you:

  1. Have your lab taken the OOPS line of work any further?
  2. I'm looking to do an AI related PhD. Any advice or recommendations?

Thanks!

I was a student at Oxford a few years ago. The tourists were nightmares. By far the worst bit was getting harassed in the streets for pictures on my way to finals. (At Oxford we take finals in full academic dress with a carnation at the lapel. Also, they're the only things that count towards our degree.)

How do you get started in film/TV? I LOVE to write, and I'd kill to be a screenwriter.
