Re: [lojban] Re: Funny Hat

Go is not actually all that obscure outside the US, and certainly
not in the Lojban community.  You're really going to have to try
harder.  :)

I enjoy Go, but am impossibly bad.  I mean that literally: I was
playing Go online regularily for several months, and was still 28
kyu.  I was informed (in a friendly fashion) by the person teaching
me that that was impossible: everyone progresses to about 25 kyu
over their first few games, but I had played dozens by that time.

They say:  "The first AIs will be built by the military as weapons."
And I'm  thinking:  "Does it even occur to you to try for something
other  than  the default  outcome?"  See http://shrunklink.com/cdiz
