This and several other stories in the Jam seemed to have been flagged by itch as unsafe, apparently because the respective authors have rather fresh accounts. I downloaded this one (Recursion) and ran it through a virus scanner and a pdf check website. Avast, BitDefender and about a hundred other antivirus providers say its okay.
To the story - If I had to compare Recursion to an existing piece of media, then it would be Jacob's Ladder.
A robot notices that his last actions keep repeating, as if he was trapped in a time loop. In the end it is revealed that the robot is dying and trapped in an imagined future after the revolution that cost him his life.
Definitely worth a read!
