Nice. Will have to check it out. Me and "techno/sheep" both discovered recently that we each picked up the book years ago and gave up very early. I think I read less than 10 pages , with the cliffs notes in hand simultaneously.
Join me with each episode for the Craic. Let’s see how far we can go. Perhaps other people can contribute too. Who the fuck knows… happy Friday
Oh yeah. Read the infinity book, everything and more by dfw you'd recommended a while back. Worth the read, quite good, and definitely interesting to get a "non-mathematician" perspective (though he basically is one in this case, so guess I just mean a non-stuffy person)

Just a quick note to let you know that I haven’t forgotten about this project!! I am having trouble getting a copy of the book! I’ve been to two bookshops plus a secondhand bookshop and no dice. I had been hoping that I would just miraculously stumble upon it somewhere else but alas it hasn’t happened. So I’m just going to have to bite the bullet and order it (I want a hard copy). I know I’m getting further behind but I am hopeful I’ll catch up! It’s not been all loss though. My trip to the used bookshop brought these to me on the very cheap 😬💜 image

I was a little excited to find it! I love The Old Man and the Sea, so I’m very much looking forward to this one 🤩
