Cats, good books, AI, and religious walking in the city of Sofia
The Sunday walk didn’t get to 10k steps. It rained and I had to settle with a few cat and flower photos.
Last time I hiked regularly, I wouldn’t skip a week for bad weather. Couldn’t imagine going to the mountain to soak and get cold.
The red flower is Begonia, taken near DCC-22, Sofia. Kudos to however keeps this tiny garden.
I read this book out of order. Should’ve read Dawnshard first.
The world of Canticle has a sun so close that it melts the rocks and causes a constant fire storm that travels around the world with the day. A somewhat advanced civilization exists in a constant motion, running away from the dawn. Nobody can see the sun because they’ll immediately burn. The legends tell the story of a Sunlit Man, who can survive the sunlight and bring great change.
Brandon Sanderson experimented with The Sunlit Man. It has too much of everything. Magic, explanations, aliens. It won’t become my favorite Sanderson book but it’s fine and the world is magical.

I’m glad that there are flowers in the fall. This is Algerian Ivy somewhere in Geo Miles, Sofia.
This writing prompt made me think. Other than being tall and with a great hair, maybe persistence. And I strive for kindness, although I wouldn’t say I do as well as I could.
Here’s a quote from an old post:
Colleagues! The drop drills the stone not with force but with persistence.
Not the first time I feature this bridge on my blog. It offers great views in all directions and an exhibition with empty whiteboards.
