Thank you! I recently read a great von Neumann biography (The Man from the Future by Ananyo Bhattacharya) and I've thinking about the von Neumann probes ever since. Definitely agree with you on how von Neumann probes are typically represented as ships or machines, but I wanted to make the nibbles "cute", so I thought "why not make the probes organic little blobby things?" But I'm definitely going to pick up the "We are Bob" book this week - seems from comments below that it has a lot of fans! Also, I have been writing one short story every week this year, as a project to get better at writing, and you can read them all here: https://f52.charlieharrington.com/ https://f52.charlieharrington.com/ Some favorites of mine are: - The Correctives - Flynn's Arrow - El Codigo de los Estados Unidos - Plastic Man on the Moon
