Started: Sharp Ends by Joe Abercrombie 📚
Last one in the First Law series. I thought I would wait a little longer but just can’t. Love these books.

This book ended on such a high note that I am biased and putting it at 5 stars. I read it over a very long time—it was my “late night can’t get to sleep” book — but as soon as finishing I thought “I can’t wait to read this again.”
Finished Co-Intelligence by Ethan Mollick 📚
Solid intro. Shoulda read this when it first came out. Probably woulda given it more stars. It is very short, and touches on a lot of very deep issues, which is useful for the complete novice, but will be unsatisfying for anyone looking for real answers.
Keynoting Day 2 of #Fediforum is Christine Lemmer-Webber (@cwebber@social.coop | @dustyweb.bsky.social) talking about what Bsky and AP can learn from one another. “But 2010s-style social media is no longer enough!” She gives us an update on Spritely and OCapN and what the future could look like.

Now for Cory Doctorow at #fediforum 🤩

Currently listening to Ian Forrester @cubicgarden@mas.to at #FediForum. Next up is Cory Doctorow. Lots of exciting guests and so many friends! Will be popping in an out of the conference for the next three days.

Everyone was piling into the new Mission:Impossible 🎬 but me and my nerd family were learning from our grampa about the absolute carnage of bottom trawling. Here’s to them making it illegal at the 2025 UN Ocean Conference 🪸🐠🦀🐙🐋🦈🐬🦭
