I don't actually know what's going on, I just read a hub and had an idea.

Dr. Cimmerian "I worked with it at Site-17 for a bit.

Not sure what's you meant to put before the dialog.

Alright tale, but doesn't really play around with the the canon's idea except as an afterthought.

Doctor Cimmerian 23 May 2018 11:28

Fixed! Thanks.

Alright tale, but doesn't really play around with the the canon's idea except as an afterthought.

More like it uses the canon's idea as the punchline of elaborate feghoot. As soon as I read "Robotic Interface and Computing Heuristic Advanced Research Database" I knew it was going to be stuck in a bottle framework.

Okay, that got me.

Not feeling this one as much, but I appreciate the surprise at the ending and it feeling like an interlude in the greater canon.

Really glad at the exact use of the in-joke at the end that exemplifies just the kind of impact we wanted to have on site culture post-bottledick. Also it manages to tie in very very nicely while being the exact kind of “mostly serious while being also very human” feel we’re aiming for.

All in al, +1 from me.

This joke got old with the second tale, and has gotten more stale, more grating, and less mature with each iteration.

-1 to this, and to pretty much every tale in this "canon".

I regret nothing!

… I hate you. That was a joke I barely saw coming. And it hit me like a bottle to the crotch.
+1, now go away.

Just when I start wondering what this has to do with Bottledick…

"Can I just say that when we complained that Jarvis was a silly name we never really considered you'd go with something as silly as the 'Robotic Interface and Computing Heuristic Advanced Research Database' for your next iteration."

"Oh, it spells 'RICHARD', how…"

"Since it went dark," Rosen continued, "we ran a battery of tests with other RICHARD iterations and we think we figured out the problem."

…Wait a minute…

It turns out that Python web frameworks interact oddly with the AI.

Oh no…

"We're fairly certain it's either the CherryPy, TwistedWeb or Bottle framework that trapped the AI in a recursive loop."

OH NO

Go sit in the corner and think about what you've done. +1

I hate this, fuck you. +1, cease your existence
