The “end of the world as we know it” happens every day though. Maybe a bit philosophical, but humans are actually very good at handling change. So we will adapt, for better or worse.

I would like to suggest the Wayward Pines trilogy by Blake Crouch. (The books, not the television adaptation). It’s a great scifi read. There he took the same idea of humans evolving beyond being human, but not in a controlled manner like you describe, but naturally and a bit bleaker.

Here’s the blurb for the first book:

The first book of the smash-hit Wayward Pines trilogy, from the New York Times bestselling author of Dark Matter, Recursion, and Upgrade

One way in. No way out.

Secret Service agent Ethan Burke arrives in Wayward Pines, Idaho, with a mission: locate two federal agents who went missing in the bucolic town one month earlier. But within minutes of his arrival, Ethan is involved in a violent accident. He comes to in a hospital, with no ID, no cell phone, and no briefcase.

As the days pass, Ethan’s investigation turns up more questions than answers: Why can’t he get any phone calls through to his wife and son in the outside world? Why doesn’t anyone believe he is who he says he is? And what is the purpose of the electrified fences surrounding the town? Are they meant to keep the residents in? Or something else out?

Each step closer to the truth takes Ethan farther from the world he knew, from the man he was, until he must face a horrifying fact—he may never get out of Wayward Pines alive.

The nail-bitingly suspenseful opening installment in Blake Crouch’s blockbuster Wayward Pines trilogy, Pines is at once a brilliant mystery tale and the first step into a genre-bending saga of suspense, science fiction, and horror.

Yes, these answers are sanctioned by the proper authorities

We do not encourage violence, but yes

Well of course. It matters 0.023%

It’s even older than that, since your post is already 6 hours old by now

Is this a period piece?

I see you’re a man of culture

It’s not really abstraction though. It is more like syntactic sugar. In stead of 1000111011 you say ADD, but it is still the exact same thing. There is no functional, prgrammatical benefit of one over the other. It’s just that asm is readable by humans.

At least thats as far as I understand asm. I haven’t gone beyond NandToTetris

Cows are usually very curious and nice. You have to remember that they are wild animals though and unpredictable. They could kill you by sitting on you.

If you act natural, don’t make any sudden movements, than you’re good. Also get out of the way, because they will just run over you. Especially in spring, when they get out of the barn for the first time since fall. They’re blinded by the light and a little spring crazy.

Bulls are a different matter. You they’re less sweet.

Stacks are for idiots, racks are what we need and blades are the real deal.

There has always been a margin for failure, but the margins need to change with climate change and that is something they’re working on all the time. At least where i live.

Yes they do. At least they’re working on it, like more and bigger basins, less waste and spilage, better throughput, etc.

This might be true, but it’s rapidly changing due to a collaborative effort from big gaming companies, streaming services and hollywood. People are relearning the art of torrenting.

The second frame could also read “It sounds like a dying animal screaming in pain and agony”

Also, mobile idle games like clash of clans or simcity. Maybe some tactics like “I’ll build this now so I can do that tomorrow” but that’s not a puzzle, that is just choices.

Well… it’s saturday night and I ain’t got anything better to do

You’re wrong

Gameboys aren’t edible, but with ketchup, you can at least lick off the ketchup

Come at me bro! Ketchup is good with everything. And I’m willing to die on this hill. Name me one thing that is not better with ketchup and I’ll tell you you’re wrong.
