2. I'm Starting to Worry about This Black Box of Doom

   David Wong, Jason Pargin

   

   A few of my favorite very-online writers—but I’m think of Pargin and Jeb Lund (who for all I know don’t know each other at all) specifically here and not like, uh, Lockwood—are pretty good about using their veterans-of-forum-wars (or at least that era of online) past to be pretty strong voices for not being assholes on the internet.

   this is a lot of that

   cw: mens rights nonsense

   my point: so if you feel like you don’t need some old guy rubbing your nose in a “deuteragonist" (I had to look up the word for that) “hey look at this kid who is a twitch streamer who is kinda black pilled, don’t be lame like this”, because you yourself are also over that, maybe skip this one

   Ultimately it’s a fun read and a break from the John and Zoe books and pretty mad at the same stuff a lot of people are on mastodon are mad about re: the other social networks, so, I’m glad I read it.

3. Mickey7

   Edward Ashton, Simon Saito

   

   Picked up after a friend who had already enjoyed it linked x.com/mickey17movie/status/1836197947668860958 in discord, very fun, read it in a few days.

4. Moonbound

   Robin Sloan

   

   P good! kinda Y.A. and a little slow to start but w/e, fun ending

5. Doppelganger

   Naomi Klein

   

   Another one that I waited out thinking “eh, probably great but maybe I’ll pass” and then people I follow just kept citing it months and months later, so onto the pile it went. My first and not last Klein book, about significantly more than I expected.

6. Family Furnishings

   Alice Munro

   

   The later, somewhat darker, more explicitly autobiographical half of Munro’s anthologies of short stories.

   Munro’s characters tend to (I know this reads like a horoscope) move on from situations for the next thing without a plan, or to be a little selfish before getting back to being serious, if they ever do. She’s always putting characters on trains, or in cars, or on buses.

7. Killed by a Traffic Engineer

   Wes Marshall

   

   Lots of people read this last year when Marshall published it and the title was so catchy, I thought about it after the last few accidents in SF, which made me think I should go back and actually read it.

   80+ three page ideas, lots of overlap with the incident management side of my day job, casually written (if a little too pop, even, but I guess that’s ok).

   Every field is like this, it seems.

8. Sourdough : or, Lois and Her Adventures in the Underground Market

   Robin Sloan

   

   Re-using my comment on Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore: “Fun, light, very quick read. Very weird to read something so connected to ~2017~ techie-San-Francisco and get 100% of the references and roll my eyes at a few of them.”

   Started Sloan’s newest, Moonbound, immediately afterward, and it’s very different so far.

9. Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore (Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore, #1)

   Robin Sloan

   

   Fun, light, very quick read. Very weird to read something so connected to ~2012-techie-San-Francisco (I was here by then) and get 100% of the references (and roll my eyes at a few w/ 12 years of hindsight).

10. You Like It Darker: Stories

    Stephen King

    

    There are a few authors I simply pre-order without question—Jason Pargin, Kelly Link, Emily Wilson in the past year alone, but always King. I was going to save this for vacation in a few weeks but ended up with more time on my hands so it came off the pile.

    I particularly liked "The Answer Man”

    Posted on Bookwyrm about a year agoon December 30, 2024 - 7:05 PM and archived here at /bookwyrm/2024/12/30/6131315/at https://pizza.slow.high.quality.gravely.pizza/bookwyrm/2024/12/30/6131315/ in the Bookwyrm collection in both HTML and markdown.

11. White Cat, Black Dog

    Kelly Link

    

    I particularly enjoyed the last one, “Skinder’s Veil”

    I’ve never actually read any actual Brothers Grimm, nor have I read (or even heard of) Lang’s “The Blue Fairy Book” which I just learned about in a review of these Link stories, so I think they have to both go on the pile.

12. The Iliad

    Emily Wilson, Homer

    

    I really enjoyed Wilson’s “Odyssey” and “Oedipus Tyrannos” translations and had hoped to get to this last fall when I put it on the to-read pile. Alas.

    I’ve never read any The Iliad before, and it does kinda go on a bit (really? that’s your thoughts on the Iliad? sure why not, is “it was good” better?).

    Wilson manages to sneak in some slapstick amid all the brutality.

13. Bliss Montage

    Ling Ma

    

    I forget why this got my attention but I will cop to the “by the author of Severance” blurb helping more than somewhat, not realizing that it’s a novel that predates the show by four years and is completely unrelated to it.

    What a lovely mistake! The stories were excellent and I will probably grab the novel too. Warning: maybe check the content before starting on the first two stories?

14. Magic for Beginners: Stories

    Kelly Link

    

    Goth surrealist tangential punny folklore ghost stories? Idk what the hell I just read and if it was a TV show I’d turn it off but I can read stuff like this all day long (and just did).

15. Pnin

    Vladimir Nabokov

    

    Nice.

16. Get in Trouble

    Kelly Link

    

    More great stories, some of which, but fewer than those in “Stranger Things Happen” would fit right in with those collected in “Black Water” (mastodon.social/@gravely/110403938932091902) and “Black Water 2” (mastodon.social/@gravely/110899731695137550).

17. Stranger Things Happen

    Kelly Link

    

    So good, I’m grabbing another collection of Link’s, "Get in Trouble”, immediately.

18. Titanium Noir

    Nick Harkaway

    

    What it says on the tin and knows it. Spoonfuls of chewy metaphors.

19. How Infrastructure Works

    Deb Chachra

    

    I feel like more than a few people I follow posted about this over the past year so I eventually followed suit. More memoir (again!) than I’m normally into but just enough history, novelty, and new-to-me theory to be pretty good after all.

20. A Wizard of Earthsea

    Ursula K. Le Guin, Mick Saunders

    

    After enjoying every single story in the “Hainish Novels and Stories (www.ursulakleguin.com/hainish-novels-and-stories), I figured I can’t go wrong tackling Earthsea for the first time by just reading all of them in the similar “The Books of Earthsea" (www.ursulakleguin.com/the-books-of-earthsea).

21. Mismatch

    Kat Holmes

    

    I grabbed this one after landing on a Don Norman piece (www.fastcompany.com/90338379/i-wrote-the-book-on-user-friendly-design-what-i-see-today-horrifies-me). I enjoyed “The Design of Everyday Things" so I followed Norman’s suggestion to read Mismatch.

    Pretty quick read, and full of things so obviously correct that I got impatient with the author’s patience? Good stuff.

22. Sound Man: A Life Recording Hits with The Rolling Stones, The Who, Led Zeppelin, The Eagles , Eric Clapton, The Faces . . .

    Glyn Johns

    

    Two memoirs to start the year. Weird, I never read memoirs.

    This one was quoted in some video I watched chasing Chris Scruggs stuff (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TeR2yZ2pWCw what a great band! that steel player?!) that I probably landed on looking up a 500songs.com (which I’m 90 episodes into) citation, so I found myself reading it.

23. Close to the Machine

    Ellen Ullman

    

    I don’t know how this made it onto my pile but it was a quick read (I started it yesterday). It’s so weird to read 90s tech memoirs. People were still sorta building stuff back then, weren’t sure where things would end up, and so on.

24. Zoey Is Too Drunk for This Dystopia

    David Wong

    

    Fun as expected. A pre-order, because that this point I just subscribe to Pargin stuff.

    It’s been two months since I finished anything, my head has not been in the right space to read, I’d bounced off three other things, and I’ve been taking lots of long walks instead.

25. The Trial

    Franz Kafka

    

    Someone in Bernal Heights (Bonview at or near Cortland? It was a few months ago) left a box of books on the sidewalk with “FREE” written on a flap that had a few things I grabbed, among them, DFW’s “Consider the Lobster, and other essays” which I started and abandoned (lol), and this.

    I enjoy stuff like this from time to time but don’t think I’m “smart enough” for it, whatever that means (and I’m not entirely sure).

26. The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida

    Shehan Karunatilaka

    

    A friend posted that they’d just read a book that they think might be the best book they’d ever read, and it was this one. 4, 3, 2, 1 was listed for a Booker and this one won the prize? OK, I’ll try it.

    I really wanted to like it more than I did, and the second act really flows well, but I had a hard time finishing it, today, finally. It’s right up my alley in lots of ways. v0v

27. Michael Kohlhaas

    Michael Kohlhaas

    

    4 3 2 1 was full of writers learning the trade from other writers and hundreds of books are mentioned. I’m sure I’ll thumb through it for more suggestions but this one was the first I chose.

    I think probably best to go in completely without any idea what it is beyond: german, written early 1800s, takes place in the 1500s, and Kafka, of all people liked it a lot.

28. 4 3 2 1

    Paul Auster

    

    Loved it, spent most of my spare time since I started it with it, will miss it, probably missed a lot in it.

29. SPQR

    Mary Beard

    

    18th book of the year: “SPQR”, by Mary Beard

    Wanted to read some history after the last few things. Kept seeing Beard press over the years, saw she has a new book out and grabbed a used copy of her old stuff instead.

30. The palm-wine drinkard ; and, My life in the bush of ghosts

    Amos Tutuola

    

    The story I enjoyed in Black Water 2 was an excerpt from “The Palm-Wine Drinkard” (which is subtitled “and his dead Palm-Wine Tapster in the Deads’ Town)

    I preferred the drinkard because more of the stories in it seem like little self-contained myths. And of course I’m glad to now have a connection back to the Byrne/Eno album that I love.

31. Black Water 2: More Tales of the Fantastic

    Alberto Manguel

    

    “Black Water 2, More Tales of the Fantastic” loved it, full of surprises and delights from authors I’ve never heard of and authors most have — Arthur Conan Doyle, F Scott Fitzgerald, E B White, Joseph Conrad, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Margret Atwood, George Bernard Shaw , Arthur C Lark) — and stories too , like Melville’s Bartleby.

    "The Complete Gentleman” turned me onto Amos Tutuola, who I’m now reading in full.

    And a story from Isabell Allende?! Nice.

32. Oceanic

    Greg Egan

    

    Egan again. I knew I’d have a 10 hours of plane time, so I brought “Oceanic” and it delivered.

    Egan’s political and hard science (the bulk of this set) stories are my favorites while the atheist ones like the title story “Oceanic” are probably more interesting to previously religious people, which I never was. I’ve always found faith to be entirely inscrutable, so exploring losing it is kinda just more of that to me?

33. Luminous

    Greg Egan

    

    It is out of print, but available self published by the author. The stories from just after those in Axiomatic.

    Some fun stuff, although I would have liked it a lot more had I read it contemporaneously, when I was in my own more annoying atheist phase.

34. A Wilderness Station

    Alice Munro

    

    Wow! Loved it.

    The “Selected Stories” title has had time to be rated and critiqued by much more careful readers. Lots of comparisons to Chekov, who I suppose I’ll check out next. I’ll also definitely be getting the companion collection, Family Furnishings, Selected Stories 1995-2014.

36. Upgraded the pizza oven to the new ‘max’ ooni, which is insanely huge, so that I could do this: make an NY style pizza with slices that are the “correct” size, and feed the family one-and-done.

    throwing out the dough to 20" was easy, launching was easy, etc.

    I set my expectations low but am very impressed w/ the first bake even though I dislike the dough I made, mostly nits with the fermentation, and I launched too hot

39. 🚶🏽‍♂️

    🏁 what I’m considering Mission Bay and Dogpatch.

    Being from Maryland, I wondered where Maryland Street, once I found, many years ago, that most of the state-named streets, are along the eastern side of the city here. Maryland St. specifically is right on the waterfront. But you can only get to a few blocks at a time between all the industry.

    this mix was so fun when it dropped that I went and read the paul morely book ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Words_and_Music:_A_History_of_Pop_in_the_Shape_of_a_City ) strictly kev later connected it to and expanded it against

    ‘Raiding the 20th Century’ is 10 years oldIt’s been bought to my attention that the original version of my ‘Raiding The 20th Century’ mix is now 10 years old. Originally a 40 minute guest mix on Eddy Temple-Morris‘ XFM radio show, The Remix, it was my attempt to construct a rough history of ‘cut up’ music in the midst of the mashup up/bastard pop craze. Taking in Music Concrete, avant garde tape composition, radiophonic tape experiments, megamixes, edit kings, scratching, early sampling and of course mash ups, it was one of the most densely mixed and edited things I’ve ever done. When it debuted it was put up on the Ninja Tune site at the time and quickly went a bit viral, causing the server to melt down and the site to grind to a halt by the next morning. More info here and here. djfood.org

44. P funny going through bad twenty year old posts on my silly old website converting them to their fourth or fifth text markup language this holiday break and running into so many broken links and embeds.

    onion-on-belt taboos against both hotlinking and mirroring completely made sense at the time, but, now, guess what silly, it’s all gone, we should have hard mirrored entire things we liked, if we liked them, even if only as time capsules

46. A 20-something tailgated me through one of the new door sized bart gates this week, clearly waiting for the right person to follow, and I knew exactly what to do, keep listening to my podcast, acknowledge nothing, even with the stupid new turnstile, which is slow and annoying, beeping behind me.

    hell yeah, we’re doing the moves, fare dodging, and we’re walking down the stairs like nothing happened, gg

49. Oops, forgot to try for a shmoocon barcode one last time

    might do lobbycon anyway, it being the last one and all that

    I don’t go to security conferences much anymore but a friend not on here and I were both on sg-dc and lived in DC in 2004, so, when the CFP got posted there ( https://marc.info/?l=sg-dc&m=109509914217942&w=2). It got his attention.

    '[sg-dc] Shmoocon 2005 CFP (and registration announcement)' - MARCmarc.info

    I didn’t end up getting a barcode until November 30th. I walked to and from the con at the Wardman each day from my place in Adam’s Morgan.

    One of the nights, we got dinner w/ @webjedi (his boss) and a few months later I quit my IT job started working for 'em as a security engineer.

    So.

52. Ordred some tacos and a dos equis at the tacqueria last night, clerk rang me up, I paid, he turned around and handed me my tacos and dos dos equis.

    what a scam, but I’ll be drinking that second one that’s in my fridge now eventually anyway I guess

    math-knowers in chat have pointed out that I should have parlayed this into quarto equis on account of dos times dos producing that quatro, but this is one of my locals and I can’t get quatro equis every time I go to keep in order to service that charade

53. This hot tip was solid, Eric Isaacson had a lot to share and I’m pretty glad we went even if we ended up not getting home to relieve our high-school aged babysitter until after 9:30. “It’s OK, tbh I stay up until midnight anyway.”

54. Having been futzing with it for a few weeks now, 11ty pathing and globbing as seemingly intended in the current reference setup https://github.com/11ty/eleventy-base-blog is still pretty befuddling, specifically how “Images can be co-located with blog post files" is done.

    GitHub - 11ty/eleventy-base-blog: A starter repository for a blog web site using the Eleventy static site generator.A starter repository for a blog web site using the Eleventy static site generator. - 11ty/eleventy-base-blogGitHub

    the example “home” index doesn’t include any post contents, just titles and dates. if you want to include content, that’s easy, but it won’t be able to find the images

    weird. anyway, https://gravely.pizza lives again

    this kinda stuff is better thought of as sets of idioms* in the it “cannot be understood from the individual meanings of its elements" sense than as whatever adjectives advocates like to throw around like “simple” or “clean” and so on

    it is a skill to be able to onboard and adapt various idioms, I’m just coming at this pile of them a little cold I guess

72. Getting another @paulrickards piece framed at the same time as the @SunRaUniverse poster I got Saturday at the show.

    I wanted to get the plotter piece with ornate yellow cope in the top right corner but it would have been 10x the cost so I lowered my sights a little to the one on the piece. 🖊️☀️

    And the Sun Ra Arkestra poster absolutely had to be sparkles, but again the ones pictured around it are eye-poppingly expensive so I went with a smaller, finer grit, but still sparkle, not pictured. 🪩🤗

73. Every morning I crack three eggs into a non-stick pan on medium heat, slide them off to a plate sunny side up when they are ready, return the pan to the stove, raise the heat to medium-high, and fry spinach and a few cherry tomatoes in olive oil which spatters oil all over the place

    today after having made a mess, oh idk, probably a thousand times or so over the past few years, I plopped the spinach on top of the tomatoes once it wilted a little and it prevented the spatter mess entirely. gdi.

    Ricki Yasha Tarr (@RickiTarr@beige.party)We are pretty lucky that most fires burn within our visible light spectrum, but there was this one time at NASA. Apparently, hydrogen is very pale when it burns and can't be seen by most people, not only that, but it burns very cleanly and with little ambient heat. The scientists had to walk around with brooms in front of them, and if the broom caught fire they'd know where the fire was, they called this The Broom Method. https://shop.minimuseum.com/blogs/cool-things/the-broom-method?srsltid=AfmBOordQRxmUUxMvh3jV2XN7K7vUapiG87WCIQ5a_35TTj99CH5v0gybeige.party

76. When I was a energy company security person back in the 00s my intrusion detection system hit on a VNC signature and I had a network capture running so I went and carved it out and replayed the video of it and it looked just like this and I panicked a little (I had no idea what our actual control systems looked like) and then called the worker who I saw on the other end of it

    they were doing volunteer work for their local ice skating rink

77. The picnic was a success, we used two of the grills, four or five of the tables, and some of us grabbed e-bikes back to work downtown from the parking racks up the street because the ride from Chase to the Ferry Building is pretty nice even on a cool day

    someone approached and asked how we booked the spot because they wanted to do the same thing so I got to relate that story, then they took a picture one of the grills we were using, which I thought was weird, but I guess people just do that anymore

    and someone from the parks service walked over and gave us three huge trash bags and asked that we make sure to clean up after ourselves, which of course we had planned to, and did, but that was nice

82. Most of the content is even more personally embarrassing than it was when I blew it away last time, six years ago. No one should have to reconcile with specific texts of their own teens, twenties, or thirties, which was the explicit reason I used to keep it up, until I didn’t believe it anymore: the unexamined life, blah, blah, blah

    the actual work of getting it to build was mostly fighting with the cruft of fads and new-things (shtml, textpattern, wordpress, octopress, etc) and incredible journeys ( https://ourincrediblejourney.tumblr.com/) and stuff I’d divested from over whatever reasons seemed sufficient at the time. Oh, we are all protest-deleting our github accounts now? Ok, I can do that. Oh, flickr got acquired and is being weird? Cya. tumblr too? bummer.

101. Was in the mood for more Kelly Link and landed on an interview ( https://bombmagazine.org/articles/2023/12/15/kelly-link-kevin-brockmeier/ ) instead. it starts off strong talking about this fun idea of nighttime logic, daytime logic, and dream logic, then they compare book lists fitting each.

     BOMB Magazine | Kelly Link by Kevin BrockmeierExpanded from our Winter issue, the author of beloved fantastical stories illuminates nighttime logic—plus songs for writing and bonus reading lists that…BOMB Magazine

     warning: it’s pretty dangerous if you have a growing-the-to-read-pile-habbit, I picked up three of the books in their lists.

     

     Link uses the term manichaeism in this interview and I don’t know it but didn’t look it up because I wanted to keep reading. then this morning I’m reading https://inthesetimes.com/article/former-left-right-fascism-capitalism-horseshoe-theory and it’s got manichaeism used too.

     Losing the Plot: The “Leftists” Who Turn RightWhat do we make of former friends who fell down the rabbit hole of the Right?In These Times

     Dang. so I go pop open https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manichaeism and from there eventually land on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogomilism, which, haha, explains the last Link novel’s name for one of the characters, “Bogomil.”, which I let slide when I read that.

     I’m a very, very credulous reader. "Oh, ok, whatever.”

112. 25: “I’m Starting to Worry About This Black Box of Doom” by Jason Pargin ( https://static.macmillan.com/static/smp/starting-to-worry-about-9781250285959/)

     

     a few of my favorite very-online writers—but I’m think of Pargin and Jeb Lund (who for all I know don’t know each other at all) specifically here and not like, uh, Lockwood—are pretty good about using their veterans-of-forum-wars (or at least that era of online) past to be pretty strong voices for not being assholes on the internet.

     this is a lot of that

     cw: mens rights nonsense

     my point: so if you feel like you don’t need some old guy rubbing your nose in a “deuteragonist" (I had to look up the word for that) “hey look at this kid who is a twitch streamer who is kinda black pilled, don’t be lame like this”, because you yourself are also over that, maybe skip this one

     Ultimately it’s a fun read and a break from the John and Zoe books and pretty mad at the same stuff a lot of people are on mastodon are mad about re: the other social networks, so, I’m glad I read it.

114. An elaborate rude metaphor in which every landmark the dashed line loops around on weathered parchment before it eventually reaches the X-marks-the-spot is a pivot in virtualization stacks by the freenas people trying and failing to lose both the the annoying virtualization (jails, docker, kubernetes, etc) janitors inhabiting each landmark and the actual pirates who use their projects to power their NASs 🏴‍☠️

     I was gonna have a visual aid of a real pirate treasure map for this but it seems like real pirates merely wanted real maps, which were hard to come by back then

     makes a lotta sense I guess!

119. Kinda worry that sonos is never going to re-add direct stream urls to their first party apps or even fix the players to load the ones that are already there, and that think the fix is going to be a DIY sonos service app and not entire DIY controllers, which, unfortunately, seems to be the bias

     they are, otherwise, goldilocks pieces of hardware for my specific preferences, so broader alternatives are not interesting

     City College has so many damned pathways that it’s going to take a bunch of tedious human pen-plotter meanders that I’m going to consider it its own thing, like I did w/ Laguna Honda which I already walked but Strava paused as I put my phone back in my pocket from the top of the trailhead so I gotta go do again at some point.

     Bonus, I can start from Balboa Park BART for a while now.

     The nearest other planet realizes they have to nip this in the bud and sends a ship into Gault at .9 c.

     the tempo is fine

     playing with a metronome clackin’ on the 2s and 4s is brutal! I feel like someone trying to jump rope just slamming themself in the leg.

     metronome: clack clack clack clack clack…

     me, trying as hard as I can: clack THREE clack ONE clack THREE clack TWO clack FOUR clack FUCK

Made my first sourdough country bread ( https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/pain-de-campagne-country-bread-recipe, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UL6ogX38NcY) yesterday after following instructions from King Arthur to make my own starter ( https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/sourdough-starter-recipe), after @skinnylatte mentioned how good PJ Hamel’s recipes are ( https://hachyderm.io/@skinnylatte/113105640187688460)

No substitutions. Just pick a few and do it. https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/author/pj-hamel My theory is that the internet is awash with bad recipes, and everyone’s a better baker than you think #Food #BakingHachyderm.io

     plenty of room for improvement, but very much not bad!

     

     

     my intent here, from the get go, was to use the starter for pizza dough but the bread was good enough and easy enough that I’ll probably also be making it on the regular too (I’m already looking forward to having a loaf on hand the next time I make coq au vin)

     I’ve already got a never-miss “water the house plants” Sunday morning ritual to add the starter to, and almost all of the equipment and techniques from pizza making transferred well

     on my third walking tour of Sunnyside, listening to the excellent https://cocaineandrhinestones.com episode on Rusty and Doug Kershaw ( https://cocaineandrhinestones.com/rusty-doug-kershaw-cajun-way) which in a surprise twist to me ends up being very much also about Neil Young’s On the Beach and Tyler Mahan Coe, the host, opens with a brief history of the acadian people and what’s my first turn on the walk? Acadia Street. Whoa.

I need to find a band to play with, picking up a guitar at home just gets junior’s attention and then breaks the impulse to pick up the instrument in the first place, like a dog or cat vectoring in on the one person who isn’t into one or the other (which is also me usually), or like a helicopter manager ignoring the headphones and full screen doc or IDE for a “hey, do you got a second?”

     well, I didn’t, but I guess I have all day now, because, welp!

     by corollary, managers who do that are actually saying “hey, hey. will you play with me?”

171. 21: “Family Furnishings", by Alice Munro

     The later, somewhat darker, more explicitly autobiographical half of Munro’s anthologies of short stories.

     Munro’s characters tend to (I know this reads like a horoscope) move on from situations for the next thing without a plan, or to be a little selfish before getting back to being serious, if they ever do. She’s always putting characters on trains, or in cars, or on buses.

     Lots of people read this last year when Marshall published it and the title was so catchy, I thought about it after the last few accidents in SF, which made me think I should go back and actually read it.

     80+ three page ideas, lots of overlap with the incident management side of my day job, casually written (if a little too pop, even, but I guess that’s ok).

179. 😬 a lil’ nervous, I have an appointment with a stylist this afternoon, my first since February 2020, when I was forced to end years of an every-three-weeks wash and style scissor-cut booking near the office (a luxury). I, eventually started cutting my own.

     I found “very short” to be pretty easy to DIY, but decided to let it go nearly two years ago and started growing it out long, w/ DIY maintenance.

     🏁 what I’m considering “the rest of Eureka Valley”, Clarendon Heights?, Upper Market, and Midtown Terrace. I’m gonna have to come back for the interior of Laguna Honda.

     I’ve bee consistently pecking away since my last post in April, but for most of them I need to “get there” first which makes it harder to do in the morning. I’d rather bike when I have that much time. Then summer break started, vacations, etc.

     Next idk, maybe Dogpatch and Mission Bay?

     Re-using my comment on Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore: “Fun, light, very quick read. Very weird to read something so connected to ~2017~ techie-San-Francisco and get 100% of the references and roll my eyes at a few of them.”

     Started Sloan’s newest, Moonbound, immediately afterward, and it’s very different so far.

194. (my friday pizza bake is threaded so that you can mute it)

     inspired by the "Bitter & Smokey” I had for lunch at Tony’s Napoletana yesterday, but too lazy to go buy ricotta or pancetta or broccoli rabe, I did the thing every online recipe commenter does and subbed the heck out of it with what I had on hand, but this time it turned out delicious, even with the left over frozen dough from a month ago that I used

     I pre-cooked the broccoli in a carbon steel pan in the pizza oven, as one does

Thanks to discord’s hokey use of a command for command-K, officially “Find or Start a Direct Message" per their docs, I am always constantly narrowly avoiding direct messaging someone I do not know who has the last name of Jerke who I assume also idles in an open source community server I idle in, when I try to switch to the chat I made for talking about anything but games on my friend’s gaming-oriented community server which they immediately renamed and locked to #jerk_factory for me

I think if cars and car parts were stollen at the rates bikes are in U.S. cities, deployed technical controls would look a lot more like off-site valet parking than like racks on the sidewalk, and the compensating control would look a lot more like car insurance than like adding the car to your home insurance policy, and nothing at all like whatever the latest video from some guy in NYC posting how to use three specific locks in very specific ways

Ames' Charismatic Technology (https://www.morganya.org/research/Ames-charisma-aarhus.pdf) This one defines the concept of "charismatic technology"—Utopian sounding tech that is fundamentally conservative and over-promises in way that makes its deployment success unlikely. It is guided through the example of the OLPC program crossing themes like education and childhood then taking away attention from better solutions.

256. 16th book of 2024: “You Like it Darker”, by Stephen King ( https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/201242757-you-like-it-darker)

     You Like It Darker“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen Kin…Goodreads

     There are a few authors I simply pre-order without question—Jason Pargin, Kelly Link, Emily Wilson in the past year alone, but always King. I was going to save this for vacation in a few weeks but ended up with more time on my hands so it came off the pile.

     I particularly liked "The Answer Man”

257. 15th book of 2024: "White Cat Black Dog”, by Kelly Link.

     I particularly enjoyed the last one, “Skinder’s Veil”

     I’ve never actually read any actual Brothers Grimm, nor have I read (or even heard of) Lang’s “The Blue Fairy Book” which I just learned about in a review of these Link stories, so I think they have to both go on the pile.

260. Homer still holds up because he repeats this same narrative echo in the form of advice over and over:

     “Hey, lesser God, go and give that mortal these instructions.”

     “Sure thing. Hey, you! Zeus says, ‘instructions’ (verbatim).

     “Gee thanks. Hey, wife or friend or whatever, Zeus says ‘instructions’ (verbatim), what do you think?”

     “Damn, you better follow ‘instructions’ (verbatim).”

     Reader: You fool!

261. 14th book of 2024: “The Iliad", by Homer, translated by Emily Wilson.

     I really enjoyed Wilson’s “Odyssey” and “Oedipus Tyrannos” translations and had hoped to get to this last fall when I put it on the to-read pile. Alas.

     I’ve never read any The Iliad before, and it does kinda go on a bit (really? that’s your thoughts on the Iliad? sure why not, is “it was good” better?).

     Wilson manages to sneak in some slapstick amid all the brutality.

273. The New York Trilogy was on the reading list for a Detective Fiction course I took in college (lovely course!) and, because it’s so great, I’m sure I don’t have that copy on my shelf anymore because I foisted it on someone with "you have to read this” after one of the re-readings I’d given it since then.

278. I simultaneously A) dream about getting out of big business and opening a tiny pizza parlor and/or coffee shop as a worker owned business and B) have absolutely no respect for the “small business owner” class I would join doing so and don’t understand why anyone else does

     it seems like cartels all the way down?

     probably incredibly naive, making almost no attempt to map what I want to achievability, what I’d prefer is a municipalized neighborhood services plan where districts can establish their own priorities for rubber-stamp retail distribution so that I can open my pizza parlor as a city worker and union member (well, I’d be in management, so idk)

     implementation could box rent seekers out out by acquiring all the retail property in neighborhoods and then sprinkling planned retail back into them

     I forget why this got my attention but I will cop to the “by the author of Severance” blurb helping more than somewhat, not realizing that it’s a novel that predates the show by four years and is completely unrelated to it.

305. Unexpected tiling window manager bonus: image popovers immediately get tiled to the same size

     I never really got into these things because I guess it never occurred to me that they would have pleasant margin options for single app configs, which for some reason I kinda prefer (tiled round rect windows and drop shadows at 0px margin and padding look weird, to me)

     using (protest) signs to shame a (shameless) mayor in a major U.S. city about traffic infrastructure when (ineffective) signs are their preferred compromise, for the same reasons, even (they are cheap, easy to put up quickly), sure is something

     important follow up disclaimer: signs are but a small part of activism, one person’s shame and action is not the actual sole or specific expected result, there is almost always a larger strategy, there isn’t a “right way” to protest, etc

334. I love views of downtown as I enter the city afar, and from hilltops and rooftops in the neighborhoods. But I always also imagine the following dialog with myself:

     "Wow, hard to believe people built all that over there”

     "Yeah, pretty neat! Do you want to go there? Maybe into one of those cool buildings?”

     “Nope.”

     “Do the people who live there like it?

     "Nobody lives there.”

     “OK, but at least the buildings are used to good stuff? Right?"

     “No, not really.”

Another nice day to try SFMTA recommended bike routes ( https://www.sfmta.com/sites/default/files/pdf_map/2021/06/sfmta_recommendedbikeroutes_0.pdf), so this time I went southeast: Chavez to Illinois to Cargo, side-quest out Heron’s Head Park and Hunter’s Point, back on the route to Mendel, Palou, Keith, Carrol, out to Candlestick Point, reverse back to Jenning, Paul, Bayshore, and Chavez home.

     I feel like more than a few people I follow posted about this over the past year so I eventually followed suit. More memoir (again!) than I’m normally into but just enough history, novelty, and new-to-me theory to be pretty good after all.

353. This is a qt of https://social.lol/@spotlightonpod/111952783201740255

     so after reading this I thought of a monthly “new artists” CD mailer subscription I had in the late 90s that I coulda swore had a Marley track one month, which is weird, right?

     so I checked my Plex for Marley, picked Catch a Fire, saw “Midnight Ravers”, which was the chorus I was thinking of, but not it.

370. Fourth book of 2024: “Mismatch” ( https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262539487/mismatch/ ) subtitled “How Inclusion Shapes Design” by Kat Holmes ( https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/39644200-mismatch).

     I grabbed this one after landing on a Don Norman piece ( https://www.fastcompany.com/90338379/i-wrote-the-book-on-user-friendly-design-what-i-see-today-horrifies-me). I enjoyed “The Design of Everyday Things" so I followed Norman’s suggestion to read Mismatch.

     Pretty quick read, and full of things so obviously correct that I got impatient with the author’s patience? Good stuff.

     third book of 2024: “Particle Theory", a collection of stories by Edward Bryant ( https://reanimus.com/store/index.cgi?author=Edward%20Bryant).

     I started this a while ago after reading an interview with Ted Chiang (maybe this one? https://www.sfsite.com/09b/tc136.htm).

     I really, really like Ted Chiang’s stories. Ted really, really likes Bryant’s stories. Some of these were quite good, some just OK. I stalled on it a few times.

     ”giANTS”, the one about ants, is one of the good ones ( https://nebulas.sfwa.org/nominees/edward-bryant/).

     The Untold Story of SQLiteOn today's show, I'm talking to Richard Hipp about surviving becoming core infrastructure for the world. SQLite is everywhere. It's in your web browser, it's in your phone, it's probably in your car, and it's definitely in commercial planes. It's where your iMessages and WhatsApp messages are stored, and if you do a find on your computer for *.db, you'll be amazed at how many SQLite databases you find. Today, Richard is going to share his story. It's the story of creating a small open source project and having it grow beyond your wildest ambitions. It's the story of following that success wherever it leads: From relationships with tech-giants to interesting testing procedures and more. corecursive.com

     I’m going to write my own mail server.

     I don’t know how this made it onto my pile but it was a quick read (I started it yesterday). It’s so weird to read 90s tech memoirs. People were still sorta building stuff back then, weren’t sure where things would end up, and so on.
