I've got onto the fairisle section of my #knitting so found a podcast to see how that goes ( but I will finish watching Bleak House) and I randomly picked 1984 as it follows on well from 1Q84 and I don't remember reading it ( in about 1984) ( and daughter has just read it) and 😨 I think that's the right emoji. #NotReading

( Forever I've been TV & knitting. But I'm not sure which of the two is the most important?)

Some people and sadly they are my bosses

I wrote in a report about an error today - the speaker, <insert name of said speaker>, had problems etc etc bla bla

Boss comes back, can you tell me which speaker has problems?

Sigh ...

I got some great books from the library (James Joyce's letters! A biography of William Byrd! Essays commemorating Dutch art connoisseur de Wetering!) which I would enjoy spending the next days just reading... but past-me agreed to a hike in the muddy Waddenzee when present-me was distracted. Sigh. #reading #notreading

I might even finish my book tonight...
I have had so many 'no pages were turned ' nights lately due to falling asleep reading, it's lucky it's from the community swap box not the library!

OOOOOOOOHHHHHH MY F**************CKKK! I hate using #iTunes on my PC. I don't know why my friends don't seem to have trouble, because I always, ALWAYS do! It's rediculous that in all these years it hasn't really changed. #screenreaders #apple #accessibility #music #lagging #freezing #glitching #notreading #stressful

Can't decide what baffles me more: the publisher who thought this was a good idea, or the hypothetical reader who legit does not understand how completely they would be missing the point by reading this instead of the original book.

Seriously, who thought this was a good idea? Do they even know who Douglas Adams is?? What market exactly do they think they are targeting?

Screencap of a promotional email from a bookstore for the book "Summary of Douglas Adams's The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" with the description "Get the Summary of Douglas Adams's The Hichhiker's Guide to the Galaxy in 20 minutes. Please note: This is a summary & not the original book."

Do we really need machine learning to predict the availability of books in a library? 🤔
