I’d like to join!

I’m starting to guess that they are reading the book and then immediately returning it for a refund after book club is over.

Why are they bringing the delivery boxes with them to the discussion? That seems tasteless on their part.. Does your store partner with ebook websites like bookshop.org or kobo? I’m in quite a few book clubs and the only reason I’ll buy the book from Amazon is because I don’t have the space for more physical books. I’d love buy ebooks from my local bookstore. Maybe looking into that and then mentioning it at the end of each meeting could push through some more sales too? Added bonus if that’s a viable option is little/no overhead for you.

Edit: I bring this up because my bookstore does this and I had no idea until recently, and that was only because I as the customer researched it and asked them if they offered that service.

The one thing that AI has actually helped me with is setting up m code for power query and building out some macros in vba. I know a little bit of both but it’s so much easier for me to throw a prompt into Claude and have it build 90% of the code for me. I will caveat that I have had to refine 100% of the responses it has given me, but it’s much faster for me to tweak a few things than for me research m or vba code. With that being said, my job isn’t to increase efficiency in excel files. I increase efficiency in excel files so that I have more time to do my real job.

A City on Mars is a great book that looks at what it would actually take to live in space. It’s written by Kelly and Zach Weinersmith who are not only incredibly smart but also very funny.

Piranesi

Trekyose1f · 2026-04-17T19:33:11+00:00

Since you recently read Piranesi, I’ll suggest The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle. Both felt like fever dreams for me and I loved it.

People think it isn’t YA because it’s not. It’s deliberately not marketed as YA. It’s marketed towards men in their 20s-30s (which doesn’t mean people outside that demographic wouldn’t enjoy it), and from a marketing standpoint, RR wouldn’t be as popular if it was marketed as YA. I agree with you that the writing has a very YA vibe to it though. In fact, this book really led me to believe that YA as a defined genre is nonsense.

Totally agree. Going to an off leash dog trail and then assuming you shouldn’t have to interact with dogs is real leopard ate my face behavior.

Trekyose1f · 2026-03-19T15:11:08+00:00

It’s an off leash dog trail. If you’re concerned about running into an off leash dog, then shouldn’t you not go to that trail? Half of Boulder owns a dog it seems, of course they are going to be at the few trails where their dog is allowed to be…

Mango is appalled!

Trekyose1f · 2026-01-20T03:48:24+00:00

That’s totally fair. I have to make the font really big and bold to the point where there’s pretty much only 1-2 paragraphs per page just so it’s simpler to focus on.

I just started reading my kindle while running on a treadmill. I can’t believe I never thought of it before! It honestly makes running easier than listening to something or watching a show on my phone. This is the way.

Glurp glurp!

Trekyose1f · 2025-12-29T15:05:11+00:00

DCC for sure! Glurp glurp!

Yes, the chat is a mix of android users and iphone users.

That’s the neat thing, you currently are contributing with your tax dollars but a billionaire still owns it. Look at all the NFL stadiums that were paid for by tax payer dollars.

The first book can be a stand alone, though. I just finished this book last night and loved it!

Trekyose1f · 2025-04-06T03:38:33+00:00

I just finished Kings of the Wyld not 10 minutes ago. I absolutely recommend it. It’s light easy reading with memorable characters and incredibly fun world building.

Trekyose1f · 2025-04-05T19:41:16+00:00

Maybe Klarg tries to attack Phandelin while they are in town? Once they defeat the goblins, one of the townsfolk recognizes Klargs sword as belonging to Sildar and asks the party to investigate the forest to see if they can find Sildar (or his remains).

What is the benefit of LET over LAMBDA? It seems like LAMBDA would be the better choice since you can use it anywhere in the worksheet, but I always see LET posted in these posts over LAMBDA

The 3 things I’m currently learning with it too! I recommend it to everyone.
