At the end of each week, I usually collate a lightly edited collection of recent comments I\u2019ve made on social media, which I think of as my public scratch pad. I find knowing I\u2019ll revisit my posts to be a positive and mellowing influence on my social media activity. I mostly hang out on Mastodon (at\u00a0post.lurk.org\/@disquiet<\/a>), and I\u2019m also trying out\u00a0a few others<\/a>. And I generally take weekends off social media.<\/p>\n

\u25b0\u00a0A Chinese restaurant, not a guitar pedal shop<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

\u25b0\u00a0Obsidian-headz: is there a detriment to deleting files from the Finder folder (I\u2019m on a Mac), versus deleting them within the app itself (right click -> delete)? Thanks. I ask because I often have a dozen Bebop files and it\u2019s easier to delete a group rather than one by one. (And I got replies, including one from someone who works on Obsidian, that indeed, this is OK. No detriments, no issues.)<\/p>\n

\u25b0\u00a0Imagine working on a product where everyone cheers when it goes down and talks about how much more they\u2019re getting done<\/p>\n

\u25b0\u00a0Hyper local, but I just gotta take a moment to say that the vegan coconut at Polly Ann Ice Cream in the Outer Sunset (San Francisco) is insanely fluffy and tasty<\/p>\n

\u25b0\u00a0As I mentioned in the email containing the instructions<\/a> for this week\u2019s Disquiet Junto<\/a>, the weekly process of these projects is like a biological clock for me, somewhere between the two processes \u2014 the \u201cphysiological\u201d and the \u201cbehavioral\u201d \u2014 that provide this week\u2019s theme. And if I bungled the science with this one, that\u2019s on me \u2014 please just roll with the metaphor.<\/p>\n

\u25b0\u00a0The cash register at this cafe had a malfunctioning receipt roll, and after an extended period of failed attempts by the cashier, who had many other simultaneous duties, to rectify the situation, several customers went on YouTube to locate solutions, and one of those worked. Just remarkable.<\/p>\n

\u25b0\u00a0Wasn\u2019t expecting the first episode of the new season of Reacher<\/em> to have a Thee Headcoats song playing during the end credits. (I\u2019m wondering if a music supervisor just did a lyric search for a song talking about something context-specific, in this case a young girl.)<\/p>\n

\u25b0\u00a0I have no idea the extent to which this makes me an economic boycott scab, but I did manage to jump over various e-commerce hurdles to purchase a ticket to attend the Autechre \/ Mark Broom concert in a little over seven months. It\u2019s at the Regency. Last show I saw there was the Atarashii Gakko! concert.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

\u25b0\u00a0I entered a tiny bathroom stall at the back of a bar, only to be greeted by a voice. The voice belonged to David Attenborough: a recording of him from Life on Earth<\/em>. As I flushed, I Iearned that the \u201cidentity of species is proclaimed by the plumage.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u25b0\u00a0Reading: I finished reading my third novel of the year, which given that we\u2019re two months into 2025 feels a little slow, but of course this third book was Neal Stephenson\u2019s epic and fantastic Cryptonomicon<\/em>, and I read its 900-plus pages at a particularly slow pace because, this being my fourth time through it, I really wanted to pay particular attention. And I have to say, it is better than ever. When it was published, in 1999, the end of World War II was barely a half century past, and now we\u2019re more than a quarter of a century since the book came out. Its technology is now old, if not as old as the technology of the Second World War. The book also closes better than I had recalled; Stephenson is known for often falling short in how his books conclude, but this Cryptonomicon<\/em> should not be counted among the failures in that regard. And this bit comes from close to the end:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

I\u2019m nearly done, meanwhile, with Ford Madox Ford\u2019s The Good Soldier<\/em>, and well into Cory Doctorow\u2019s Walkway<\/em>, and making continued slow progress with George Eliot\u2019s Middlemarch<\/em>. And I somehow didn\u2019t finish reading a single graphic novel this week, even though I\u2019m in the middle of a few.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
