By now you should be familiar with the quantum mechanics concept of superposition - where an elementary particle can occupy multiple places at one time; a flip side to this have been a staple of science fiction - occupying multiple periods. Brandon Crilly's Moments is one of those stories, but it makes you think of all those precious moments and missed opportunities.

Although the story is brief, it's depth can be felt by anyone wishing to turn back the clock for a second chance...

Sometimes, when we discover something absolutely new, it challenges every conceivable view of our universe. And when this happens, it can be unsettling. Humanity is again on the brink of what we now call a "paradigm shift": artificial intelligence, applied quantum mechanics, and the rest. Sometimes we try to resist, and run back towards the familiar.

The Hidden Plague is a epistolary view of one person of such an occurrence...

There was news recently of how a coded DNA is used to hack a computer. It begs the question, can the human body be hacked itself? No, we're not talking about biohacking, we're talking about something more akin to the ones handeled by computer security companies...except with regards to our bodies.

John Murphy's Ransomware tells of such a possibility...

The world's population keeps growing, and only recently have we hit the 7 billion mark. It doesn't take a genius to deduce that we need to squeeze ever more food from a finite pool of arable lands to feed greater and greater numbers of people. But can we do this? And how would the world be if we were to fail?

Matthew Amati's supershort story tells of a typical family in a post-abundance world, where food is so scarce and precious, they come with names...

Throughout the history of our species, we have changed more or less to adapt to whatever nature had thrown at us. We have lost some abilities, and had gained new ones. But where is humanity heading? What will we lose? And what will we gain?

"Vestigial Organs" is a story of  a future society's reaction when biology sends a throwback.
