      … you really decided doubling down on the nonsense was going to disprove my statement?

      It’s a bold strategy, Cotton. Let’s see if it pays off for 'em.

      Speaking of books, have you ever read the Earthsea series? The way you talk about things reminds me of how in Earthsea things have a true name by which you can call and have them send towards your will. The trick is that some people have more then one true name and that, I think, is metaphor for how we can escape being manipulated when someone (or AI) learns our nature.
