seeing others as versions of oneself

[edit]

RAH commented on this idea in his correspondence and it is a theme underlying many of his stories. For instance, in By His Bootstraps a man finds himself literally surrounded by versions of himself, which he fails to understand and with whom he even gets into a fistfight! This comes about by means of time travel, but RAH stated that the story was only incidentally about time travel and its paradoxes -- that just being a device to explore the theme of Other-as-self. Much the same can be said about All You Zombies. (and yes, I know these are both regarded as primarily time travelling stories.) 2A01:CB0C:CD:D800:1508:FC82:66CC:D167 (talk) 08:47, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

– Hits to this article have spiked since last November,[1] which coincides with the release of Grok (chatbot). Unlikely that this remains the primary topic. Move disambiguation page to main title, per WP:NOPRIMARY. 162 etc. (talk) 04:21, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

cURL reference to grok

[edit]

The main web page of cURL referenced in the article no longer uses the word. Would it be better to remove the mention under the In computer programming section, or link to the Wayback Machine snapshot of the page as it existed then? G-J (talk) 14:09, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For the record, the relevant phrase was removed from that webpage on June 8, 2015.[3] DMacks (talk) 16:29, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
