The Three Body Problem. Haven't gotten too far into it but so far it's pretty good.

Love it, the series is great. Don't think I've read anything else that approaches the Fermi Paradox from the angle that this one does.

Most important thing - finding something that motivates you and you enjoy doing.

This is 100% true. I miss Taekwondo, and had to stop because of knee pain. My goal is to get in shape enough to return and practice without unnecessary pain.

A buddy of mine got back in to fix his knee pain, ha ha. The human body is an amazing thing.

Any place you train should be able to help with stuff like this. Tell your coaches that you have an injury or experience pain when doing certain types of exercise.

All of the places I've worked out in, that were worth being a part of, have been able to modify the workout to accommodate the needs of most people.

MileHiCon this weekend!

Making some chili on Saturday for the UFC fight. And hopefully I'll get to watch Conor McGregor lose a belt.

Pretty sure Nurmagomedov currently holds the belt that's on the line.

Last one was a good time! Will definitely be planning on attending.

Amazon has had this for a while now with workspaces.

They have, but Workspaces is essentially incapable of running Excel. Makes it a bit of a no go if you're tied to MS Office which a lot of people are.

Sounds like there is a lot of Sunk-Cost going on if your stuck to using Excel for your business critical functions. . .

Business critical or not, getting people to change is hard. Frequently they will spend large amounts of money to avoid it.

MS Office is definitely a solid example of a product that induces such behavior.

I really need to get my Calibre library back up and running. Just finished the Fifth Season by NK Jemisin and I'm fairly certain the sequels are already in there. They definitely need to find their way onto my phone!
