An image of a page from the Chicago Sun Times titled, "Summer reading list for 2025" with an image of a woman sitting on a porch, perhaps, beside a body of water, reading. It's beige as fuck. Above the title is a row of icons that invoke summer, I guess. 

The article itself is too long to reproduce, BUT, only five of the fifteen books listed here as titles you should read are actually real. Brit Bennett doesn't have a book titled Hurricane Season. The fuck? Isabel Allende has no book named Tidewater Dreams. The Last Algorithm by Andy Weir, The Collector's Piece by Taylor Jenkins Reid, Nightshade Market by Min Jin Lee, The Longest Day by Rumaan Alam, Boiling Point by Rebecca Makkai, Migrations by Maggie O'Farrell, The Rainmakers by Percival Everett, and Salt and Honey by Delia Owens are all books that DO NOT EXIST!!!

I was practising #ElixirLang with some simple #Exercism challenges, using #Copilot at the same time. I jotted down some observations about the experience:

This is great! I'm struggling to figure out where/how the jekyll front matter variable `bluesky_post_uri` is used with this though? Any tips?

I'm not sure I post frequently enough to make my sharing of #AdventOfCode challenge completions in #ElixirLang come off as anything but annoying (especially to non-coders). I don't want my timeline to just be *that*.
