Unless you spend all of your time reading fanfiction and never look at the science and technology news, you will have probably picked up that Artificial Intelligence is a hot topic right now. There is no better time to be a top computer science graduate with a PhD in machine learning techniques. Google, Facebook, and other tech giants will sign you up with a huge starting salary, in the expectation that real breakthroughs are imminent, and will lead to algorithms able to directly communicate

When I found this groups with science fiction stories, I noticed that not all the stories there had a Sci-Fi tag. Even in folders like “Hard Scifi” and “Tech in Equestria”. So I may have missed something good when I looked for stories by the tag.

An image, that can illustrate a science fiction story:

I would like to think that the latest chapter in my A Diapered Idea story is a very good start at an answer to the questions I posed way back in my blog post of September 13th 2016. I very much understand the temptation to gloss over the magic of diaper tf and simply go to the sexy bits. But to me a story becomes so much more interesting, more real, if the process, what steps must be taken, are described. It could be argued that being magic, there really is not much to describe. But I call

Chapter 8 has been renamed and the update posted. Only two more chapters to go.

Changed include some revelations and lot of dialogue changes, please tell me how you feel about it.

Hello everyone! Yeah, I've finally finished the next chapter! With a lot of it, I struggled with the sense of scale I was trying to convey. In a sense, I was thinking of the market scenes you would see in the show Firefly, which to me felt real, alive. I've been in markets like that, back in 2010, when I went down to Guatemala. The markets are loud, filled with bartering, and they're always a treat to be in. You never know what you'll find (In my case, I found an actual Cavalry Saber.

I don't know if these frequent posts will become tiresome, but I feel its necessary to keep you informed of my progress and prove that I'm not going to disappear again.

With that said, ME:C - Chapter 3. Medical Supplies has been updated.

Pretty much before the inevitable conclusion of BRBrony9's tragic science fiction story Friendship One, I was already getting the mad idea to start a more upbeat version, this one involving the arrival of the Lakon Diamondback Explorer Stay Back! I Have Lurgi!. Something to do with that commander having the misfortune to witness that star's collapse at far too

¡Isaac Asimov is 100 years old today!

So, I was looking at the latest issue of Scientific American, and the cover carried the text "The Quantum Multiverse." I dug in immediately, because I love me some highest-order polycosmic structures. Then I noticed a certain familiar phrase in the article's summary. Then I read the thing.

I'm not going to say much here. Just that this was Enigma's idea. And I'm not ashamed. I hope it's a fun reminder that the holidays can be horrible. And fun. And also horrible.

TL;DR - I like gothic post-punk, I think cyberpunk ponies in a gonzo future would be cool, and yay for Chapter 9 of my fic!

I'd like to preface this by saying that I assembled this little document to go with a story I recently posted. Memory of Forever. I encourage you to avoid looking at it until you've read that story all the way to the end--it will link to and also include spoilers.

If Imposing Sovereigns II isn't in your court, you may be interested in an alternate proposal. Pineta isn't so much commissioning stories about particle physics topics as he's offering a bounty on them, at 25 pounds per offered kiloword. (Over US$30!) Details here for those interested.

Hey, again. Episode 31 of Doctor And Ditzy's Science Theater is finished. This time I will be riffing The Moon's Wrath by Dolphy Blue Drake. This fic is another one of those fics that's a retelling of the MLP pilot. Only this time, everyone is a dragon instead of a pony and they are the opposite gender! It doesn't really change as much as you think. The author does an admirable job mixing up the lore. He adds really weird stuff
