@jfincher @bookstodon I love so many of the covers from these #books, the second chronicles in that edition are particular favorites. The Wounded Land is particularly striking. I seem to remember there being another great cover of The One Tree that I loved, but I can’t find it. Gotta finish the reread of these I started a few months back!

@yerald @bookstodon This series of covers for the First and Second Covenant Chronicles. I've been on a hunt for HC versions of the 1st trilogy, already found the second. #usedbookstores

I've got a book handling quandary.
I love used books, whether HC or PB -- they show signs of love and affection, and I buy them when I can.
However, I also have several first edition HC's which are inscribed by the authors, which I keep pristine -- I put them on a shelf, almost untouched, and read the ebook versions instead
How do others handle this? Do you handle and love your first editions, or do you preserve them and love the PB/EB versions?

For the first time in several years, I can finally say, with confidence from first-hand experience:
The mountain is out.
And it's glorious.

Waiting on the St. Louis Symphony to start Holst's *The Planets*.
Our first concert of the season, after having to miss several earlier performances because #2022sucks.

I submitted a PR today with some missing files into a curriculum I worked on last year. After a license check, the PR was quickly moved to the "Ready to Merge" state.
Wait -- I submit a PR, and can merge it myself without review? In a public repo, owned by a bigger fish in this pond? No external verification requirements? Yeah, I don't think so...
I decided to ask for verification, and I'm glad I did - someone found a problem a few hours later.

Why should we write software, when AI can do it.
From "Use of Weapons" by Iain M. Banks:
---
"Can't machines build these faster?" he asked the woman, looking around the starship shell."Why, of course!" she laughed.
"Then why do you do it?"
"It's fun."
---This is why -- it's fun.
Now all we need is a post-scarcity society...

Just gave blood today with the #redcross - the fastest and easiest donation I've done in a long time.
I can't fix everything, but I can #giveblood.

Red-eye, two stops, economy
Please boss, don't make me go!
