Amon Tobin - Easy Mufffin
I am not sure about ‘ever’ (I am old and have been reading for over 4 decades now), but a book I hate-read recently was Foucault’s pendulum by Umberto Eco. It is meant to be a satire on conspiracy theories and as such it is still a relevant book after 35 years or so. However, the point of satire is to get to the point eventually, preferably within 500 pages. It was pompously written and sometimes felt like a showcase of ‘look how much I know!’.
As much as I loved many of Stephensen’s books, I could not get into Anathem.
I recently hate-read Foucault’s Pendulum by Umberto Eco. I had started reading it twice and stopped after a few chapters. I am aware that the book is meant to be satire, but the point of satire is to be to the point instead of having to slog through 600+ pages of drivel.
I recently told a seven year old that I am a wizard. I already have the beard and being a programmer, that is exactly what my customers feel about my work.
I switcthed to barefoot shoes for hiking and everyday. They are the opposite of sturdy, but well worth the investment. As a guy in his late forties, I have fewer little nagging pains.
Running shoes because when you wear ill-fitting shoes, you will hurt yourself eventually.

If your friend really thinks that AI Is ThE AnSwEr To EvErYtHiNg, try to ask them whatever happened to the blockchain.
Dvorak. I switched back in 2005 from qwerty and never looked back. I never looked forward either, so I may try out Colemak at some point in time. Workman looks solid for English, but I am not a native English speaker.
Counter question: why do you think that you cannot get enough sleep? Do you feel sleep deprived? As somebody else mentioned earlier, you may not need as much sleep.
A few general tips that may or may not apply to you:
I normally sleep from 10:30-ish to 6:30-ish. As for running, I mostly do that either late morning or late afternoon, as my energy levels are highest then. However, I have school going kids and a 9 to 5 job. I do not know your situation, so YMMV.
If you were ever here, how did you solve this?
Simple. Just stay friends. I left a job 15 years ago because the CEO was an asshole. However, our team was great and I still visit some of my old colleagues regularly.
Because reality is even worse.
I did not know that. Thank you.
I have krunner with the man plugin enabled. When typing man:X in the krunner prompt, a window opens with a nicely styled man page.
Always English. I live in a country where developers are hard to find. Chances are that I will get colleagues who do not speak my native language (yet).
