...become the most depressed. Melancholia, the Greek term for “black bile,” was said to foster pensively intellectual thinkers. And in history, so many great leaders have been depressive or unpleasant.

Except I didn’t cry at the end of this video, and I weep like a little girl whenever I see HAL getting shut down.Seriously, though—what ever happened to people being afraid of robots? Have we let our guard down prematurely? After all, we may not always be able to count on Beck to save us from the androids and their...
