Four thousand weeks: time management for mortals. Going through initial chapters. Loving the concept about procrastination and concentrate on a maximum of three projects.

I just started The Peloponnesian War by Thucydides. If you're into ancient history, this is an interesting account of one of the most terrible conflicts in ancient Greece, even for Greek standards. Furthermore, Thucydides writing style is great to read.

Hmm - I'm going to read some substacks. With Stacker News I haven't been reading substack lately and I have a bunch of publications I am behind on. In terms of books I need another audio book to pick out!

I love reading. Right now I'm reading a book called Cryptoeconomics. It's really excellent. I really recommend it.

I picked up Keys to the Kingdom on a friend's recommendation. I'm excited to read it because it's a narrative based on what the author teaches, which is something I've always wished non-fiction authors would do. The reviews of the book and the author's other works are filled with epiphanies and reliefs so that also made me super curious.

The Hartlepool Monkey by Wilfrid Lupano
1814, off the Durham coast, near the village of Hartlepool, a war-ship in the Napoleonic fleet founders during a storm and sinks. At day-break, fishermen discover a survivor: a monkey dressed in full military regalia, the mascot. The good people of Hartlepool despise all Frenchmen, though they have never seen one in the flesh. Nor have they ever see a monkey. But this brutish, bestial castaway tallies with the impression they have of the enemy, and the ape is court-martialled. Inspired by this famous legend, this is a tragi-comic fable of war and jingoism.
