Grand Theft Auto on an Alien Planet, basically

Almost at pre-Grecian conquest Israel. Can't wait until we get to that point in the narrative!

Creating chaos in camp

I'm starting to think that the climax isn't what I thought it was. Perhaps this was written with a series in mind.

done -review later today

Salacious? Yes. A fun murder mystery? Yes. Enjoying the story more than I thought I would.

A bit of a Twilight Zone episode for one of the stories. Very fun change of pace.

Wife wanted something fun to listen to. So far, it's enjoyable. Also, I'm pretty sure every main character is an alcoholic.

Works equally well as a companion to the album or as a standalone as long as you can come to terms with undesirables being called "dirty computers"

continues to be awesome!

loved the essay about code reviews. Want to implement that with my teams here.

very easily readable; in a style that makes you just want to keep going onto the next essay without stopping

Just as weird as it seems from the cover, but a nice, easy read. Enjoying it quite a bit.

Phase 1 completed (or so it seems)

Done implementing API. Next: testing and deployment.

Mini-climax #1. Pretty fun!

pretty deep into the blogging application. A lot more respect for the database code in Wordpress!

learning tons

This book (so far) reads like a cross between a martial arts, a western, and a military thriller. Might make a decent movie or TV show.

more signs of old age: asian person described as having an Oriental slant to his eyes

Basics completed. Advanced topics introduced via the flasky app

So far, one of the best written technical books for a web framework. It helps, of course, that I've now done some work with Django and FastAPI and many of the ideas (if not the specifics) translate across them.

This book REALLY is old, it spells teenagers with a hyphen "teen-agers"
