Is it cold in here?:

--- Quote from: Y on 16 Sep 2018, 07:08 ---When May was about to say '...stupid gf', Dale thanked her for not saying it. Does that mean their relationship isn't going that well anymore?

If he'd thanked her for saying it, that would have been a bad sign.

I read Dale's reaction as equivalent to "thank you for not being nasty about Marigold".

--- End quote ---
I guess I read too much into the fact that 'girl friend' were the words she swallowed, as it would be painful otherwise if it wasn't the case anymore. As calling people stupid would be just May.

A condition of her staying there was being nice to Marigold, hence "nice.txt".

I'm fascinated by the phrase "rest of my life". Isn't that going to be indefinite? And what will happen to AI society? If Ais brains don't grow old and deteriorate then AIs will be essentially immortal, and AI society will come to be a gerontocracy. And what happens as they realise that , as I am realising, Swift was right, indefinitely prolonged life would be a curse, not a blessing...

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lifecycle_of_Software_Objects for a treatment of this very question.
