Mark Rober sure does come up with some interesting ideas. The question is will my Tweet (are they still called tweets after switching to X?) make it to the satellite to be displayed and captured over the Earth? Time will tell.

I came across this lengthy article on backing up your computer which I found interesting. I’ve read thru it twice now and I am still working on digesting the strategy employed. I can see how some of this could be relevant for a project I’m undertaking but running my own NAS in my current environment may not be feasible.

This year I did a better job of tracking my reading but still not using any specific tool like Goodreads. My wife started reading the Dresden Files series so I paused my reading while she caught up to where I was in the series.

As I’m writing this in mid-October of 2024 these are the books I recall reading in 2023:

Completed Books

1. Changes by Jim Butcher (took a while longer to get this finished)
2. Ghost Story by Jim Butcher (I have a tough time reading this book. It is IMO quite different from the rest of the series)
3. The Aeronaut’s Windlass by Jim Butcher
4. The Olympian Affair by Jim Butcher
5. The Naken Sun by Isaac Asimov (I finally finished this book. Not sure I’ll continue the series, but maybe after the next season of Foundation airs I’ll be more inclined)
