  7. I just finished re-reading Understand, by Ted Chiang
    It's a short scifi story. It has similar themes to Flowers for Algernon.

    Here's the link if you want to read it for yourself:

    I've also added it to my list of curios:

  9. 📕 Hospital Sketches 📕

    Louisa May Alcott served as a Union Army nurse for 6 weeks in Washington DC at the end of 1862. That time, cut short by a case of typhoid pneumonia, inspired her book Hospital Sketches- a short novel both humorous + devastatingly sad.

    These are photos of what her world might have looked like during that time

  20. Self-hosted a Linkding instance and used it as a reading list. With its companion extension, Linkding handles websites precisely.

    Since I'm using it as a reading list, I vibe coded another companion extension to view my list while browsing. Still vibe polishing it…

  21. 📚 I recently finished reading The Warmth Of Other Suns - the story of the Great Migration, the movement of Black Americans out of the South from about 1915 to 1970 - by Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Isabel Wilkerson. Telling the story through the eyes of 3 people who experienced that journey made for a moving + enlightening read. 📚

  24. Marlene Dietrich & Konstantin Paustovsky

    Just finished 'The Story of a Life' by Konstantin Paustovsky (1892-1968), Russian writer nominated 4 times for the Nobel Prize in Literature. He was of Zaporozhian, Turkish + Polish descent + raised mostly in Ukraine

    In her autobiography, Marlene Dietrich devoted an entire chapter to the author inspired by his novel 'Telegram' :
    "This novel made so great an impression on me that I could no more forget it than I could the name of the author, of whom I had never heard before"
    In 1964, Dietrich arrived in the Soviet Union on a concert tour. As soon as she got off the plane she asked about Paustovsky. Despite being ill, Paustovsky attended the performance + afterwards went up on the stage. “I was so shocked by his presence that, being unable to utter a word in Russian, I did not find any other way to express my admiration for him, except to kneel in front of him"

  25. Tip #750

    Ensure that articles on your Reading List have the correct read status.

    You can reduce the number of open tabs by adding pages you want to check later to the Reading List. When you open a page from the Reading List, it gets marked as read automatically. In case you changed your mind about reading the article or didn’t get a chance to finish, you can mark the page as unread again.

    To mark a page as unread:

    1. Open the Reading List panel or Reading List pop-up.
    2. Find the page you want to mark as unread.
    3. Click on the eye icon next to the page title.

    Similarly, by clicking the checkmark icon next to an unread page, you can mark it as read.
