** I read some books in 2022, and have some thoughts about computer science writing **
At the start of this year I set out to revive my long dead reading habit. After having kids it fell by the wayside. I’ve read 41 books so far this year.

However, after spending a full day creating graphics for a video, I found myself frustrated by the number of clicks required to export a single slide at a time. ⌘ Read more
