How do you begin “hacking yourself?” My method is to push myself through a compiler (experiment on a premise that seems likely), record the results, and address trends (debug). This doesn’t sit well with a lot of people; most people want to believe that their actions aren’t the results of past experiences—they don’t want to…

Echo: A Dystopian Science Fiction Novel
I’ve just died and gone to Hell. If I couldn’t already tell by the flames and screams, I’d know it by the task that’s been assigned to me: Toilet plunging. Burning triceps, sweat-soaked brow, a desperate chain of flinches and whimpers as I struggle to avoid dark-colored backsplash…all part of the deal as I pump…

Either approach at a moment’s…

Echo: A Dystopian Science Fiction Novel
If you didn’t already know, Gray aliens are the future descendants of present day humanity. Not surprising when you think about it, right? Humans started as apes, then shrank into less hairy, more intelligent hominids. And they’re still evolving—they’re still selecting for increasingly complicated iterations of survivability.

Without those, projects become even more dependent on luck than they already are, and the opportunity to sharpen your mind through the endeavor is severely diminished.
