I notice that I tend to read more when I engage with the app. I was thinking of switching to something self-hosted, but meh... I like Storygraph well enough to stay there.

Boeing, based in Arlington, Virginia, delivered 24 jetliners in May, including 19 Max jets. Ireland's Ryanair got four and Alaska Airlines took three.

FWIW I've been able to compile Zed for Wayland only by removing any X11 references in the code and I've been using it for about two months or so.

Death's End by Cixin Liu. The first two books of the trilogy were mind-blowing, and I want to read his other book, Supernova Era.

Modules. I find they're a really great to organize code, and a lot of Ocaml code out in the wild use them.
