Software (the book)
Posted: Sun Oct 25, 2026 2:15 pm
I just finished reading a book called Software by Rudy Rucker, which was written in 1982 about connectome scanning and memory transfer to robots.
It's a pretty prescient book I happened to find in my hackerspace while thinking about how all the copies of Fall; or, Dodge in Hell are checked out at the library...
A lot of fiction falls off me these days as a waste of time, but this book had a unique writing style that Rudy's termed transrealism that got me hooked.
