This novel, a sweet one, made me feel warmer about the possibility of recuperating old confusions and errors—though I didn’t get into it with the guy on BART who wanted to know about my reading habits and told me I looked like a librarian.

@pauline This was a lovely book, really enjoyed it too! It's a long time since I read it but I remember its warm vibe.

@piratescarlett I'm interested in this Tokyo reading list she did for the NYT - some known quantities, some very much not, at least to me.

@pauline is there a bot we can set up to just order me a copy of every book about Japan that you read?

Manually clicking buttons is such a chore. 😁

Basic models of flocking behavior are controlled by three simple rules: 1) separation: avoid crowding neighbours (short range repulsion); 2) alignment: steer towards average heading of neighbors; 3) cohesion: steer towards average position of neighbors (long range attraction). With these three simple rules, the flock moves in an extremely realistic way.
