Not sure how did all these cables happen but good job to the artist who turned them into a peace of beauty. They are on Instagram:
Skipping Rope

Focus
I zoomed too much and couldn’t properly capture this little fellow. But his expression is clear.
Nights or mornings
I used to be a night person. Then I had kids. Then I discovered the saying:
If it’s not important enough to be first thing in the morning, it’s not important enough to be the last thing in the evening.
— Someone said that on the Internet
I’m now a morning person. I still do evening work sessions to catch people in distant timezones but my most productive time is the early morning.
What I Read in November 2024
I read 7 books, 1 gamebook, and 1 comics in November.
Best books for the month:
- Thraxas 11 and 12 – The march to free Turai is over, and the series didn’t end. Some serious questions are left for the unwritten book 13, like why are Thraxas and Makri glued together? Both books were 5/5s, and also short and easy to finish.
- Shadow of the Fox #1 – a human with fox features starts a journey to secure a world-dominating scroll. LOTR in a magical ancient Japan. Book 2 relied on superheroes and deux ex machina, and is closer to the bottom of this post than the top but was still interesting.
Worst books for the month:
- Claw of the Dragon – a gamebook where the choices don’t matter and you just read a few pages in a non-linear order to reach the final. Probably targets 7-8-year-olds from the pre-computer age.
- Monk and Robot – clever and thought-provoking but not as interesting as the other books I read in November.
