Between enjoying the outdoors and job interviews I didn't read as much as I would have liked in August. I really need to do a better job of planning when I add items to my library queue as I'm not planning far enough ahead (something which I am sure will …

July was another busy month with job interviews and some traveling so I didn't quite hit my goal and I did read a book I had finished in the past because I felt like revisiting it. That's something I typically don't do, but I didn't want to read something new …

June was a pretty busy month due to looking for a job and the associated interviews and studying but I was still able to get some reading in. I've been having a pretty hard time reading non-fiction books but tried again this month, it went about as well as I …

This month I only finished 2 books and both of those were completed in the first week of February. I'll discuss the other books I didn't finish as well since there were 2 of them. This was a pretty bad month simply because I read a couple of books that …

I've been trying to read more recently and finished about 18 books last year. I am aiming for 4 books a month this year. I figured I might as well do a quick review of what I've been reading and only made it through 3 books in January unfortunately. I'm …

Last year around this time I decided that I would start buying music regularly from Bandcamp.com instead of using subscription services. I had bought music sporadically previously but realized it was time to start supporting the artists I care about more regularly. Subscription services don't benefit many of the …

Late last year I shut down the first full scale project I had built. It was an excellent learning experience (as documented here). I didn't make any money on that project, but the cost of learning was pretty low. A few weeks ago I finished the initial content and made …
