Programming<\/h2>\n

\ud83d\ude10<\/p>\n

I did some reading, but not much more.<\/strong> I have some more mental hurdles to overcome before I can make faster progress. I\u2019ll probably extend the project again. But now it\u2019s on hold for a couple of weeks of summer housekeeping.<\/p>\n

Life maintenance<\/h2>\n

\ud83d\ude10<\/p>\n

The next two weeks are for my second seasonal housekeeping period.<\/strong> I’ll do my periodic admin and housekeeping tasks and miscellaneous catch up. I especially want to sneak in more research on investing.<\/p>\n

Fiction<\/h2>\n

\ud83d\ude0e<\/p>\n

I’ve been having more interesting AI experiences, where ChatGPT gives me a book concept that I then want to read.<\/strong> So I feed its plot summary into the other bots and see what real books they find that are similar. A couple that stand out are Empire Falls<\/em> for a small town slice-of-life novel and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo<\/em> for a journalist solving mysteries with lots of intrigue.<\/p>\n

Nature<\/h2>\n

\ud83d\ude0e<\/p>\n

Last week’s walks were filled with animal sightings.<\/strong><\/p>\n
