I’m struggling getting back into “serious” reading and feel like my physical posture and environment is hindering me.
I used to read a lot (have inhaled many a Brandon Sanderson books on release) but I can’t get into reading “hard” books. I read mainly in bed (with my kobo) but finding it tricky and I am turning into a hunchback. Audiobooks while cycling)/gym is great, but bit distracting for “hard” books.
How do ye do it?
- Do you have a fav chair (will accept pictures if you could share!) or environment (like a reading nook)?
- When and how do you make time to “digest” books?
- Do you take notes and if so, how?
- bonus question: what was a recent hard book that you enjoyed (and made you reframe stuff) and would recommend?
Thank you!
Your use cases are quite similar to what I’ve been trying to action.
One question I keep wondering about is the “security” aspect of it. And how the inputs to the model might work. Yes it can read your calendar and you could “Jeeves, please remind me to hang out with Wooster next week” but it’s easy to forget and I have a hard time logging spontaneous events.
Any ideas on how you imagine the friend/activity tracker could work?
Was thinking maybe it could read my smartwatch location history. Or scan the photos I take. But that gets dystopian fast (yes it’ll be local but then I’m worried about security).
Fun to ponder!
