I’d like to share a small publishing milestone.

‘Drystone - A Life Rebuilt’ has gone into a second print run.

And because publishing is famously opaque, and there are so many wildly unrealistic ideas out there about how it all works, here are the numbers in plain terms...

A grid of eight copies of the book 'Drystone - A Life Rebuilt' by Kristie De Garis arranged in three neat rows against a soft blush-pink and white background. The covers show an abstract composition of painted stone shapes in deep greens, golds, blues and black, with the title overlaid in bold black type.

If you live in Wellington, Aotearoa New Zealand and you want to read this (and I highly recommend that you do) there are three copies in the local library.

There's an #AWS event in #Wellington next week.
And every topic. EVERY talk/demo/workshop is about #AI.
Even to a point where it almost seems like it's slapped onto the title just to please have people please use this garbage...
I mean, the topics on their own look somewhat interesting, if you remove the AI garbage from it, it might even be useful!

I was supposed to rest yesterday. The #Wellington weather had other plans and blew over a portion of our fence. And low, there was demolition and a big van load of heavy detritus (fence, vines and other waste) taken to the local tip (dump).

Today I am stiff and tired. 36th day without a proper day off.

Two more beers to package. Not much more and can then shift into putting beers into tanks rather than taking them out.

#rustforge was AWESOME! 🙌

So lucky to be part of a lovely #rustlang conference, here in my home of #wellington, #newzealand. Met lots of interesting people, learned some new Rust, enjoyed sharing my own creative passions. 🦀🥝

Thanks @timClicks for organizing. 💜

Joined the Wellington mesh tonight!

Communicated with a friend ~60km away, over the Remutaka Range, using Meshtastic (LoRa @ 915Mhz) instead of the internet.
