Alistair

Alistair Young ("The Cerebrate"): software developer and systems administrator, Speaker-to-Electricity, ardent bibliophile, unrepentant elitist, technarchist, polymath, gamer, worldbuilder, epicure, rationalist, practicing hesperophile, recent US immigrant, transhumanist, aspiring post-Singularity superintelligence - indeed, veritable demiurge upon this Earth.... What more need be said?

Well, except that this half of this site  is his personal web site; come in and visit. If you were looking for his software, technical notes,  or other things produced under the Arkane Systems name, it would be best to visit that site directly.

(However, as the photograph opposite demonstrates, he is not yet a giant sessile brain ruling over hordes of infinitely obedient minions with a mere thought and an iron hand. However, as he says, "That's not for lack of trying!")

The remainder of this page is a grand miscellany of things that are about me, or that I find interesting, or occasionally, that I just randomly stuck here. Larger things in those categories can be found on this page's children, to your left, or in my Notebook. Stay and browse for a while, why don't you?

My Interests

My interests, like my qualities, are manifold. At the present time, they include all of the following, at the very least, with special attention given to those which stand out from the crowd...

My Message For Humanity

I have a message for the world, too. You can see it over there on the right hand side of this page.

It's amazing how many problems in the world today boil down to this - a simple lack of thinking. Especially when coupled with a superabundance of feeling. Now, I have nothing against feeling. In the right place, feeling is a jolly good thing.

Unfortunately, the right place is almost inevitably not where most people use it.

More follows, later. In the meantime, have some Greek text. Neque mattis adipiscing, vehicula eros luctus. Quam erat quis augue vestibulum, ligula lectus vivamus congue lacus vitae, quisque auctor nec molestiae. Velit et quis. Class ante leo odio urna. Enim vestibulum, ac enim ac velit. Mattis ipsum, quis arcu, maecenas vulputate quis fermentum neque sed culpa, est penatibus nulla placerat orci, euismod suscipit non.
