About this portfolio

This is where I keep the things I've made and the things I've read. Projects is for engineering work, once any of it is presentable (it isn't yet). Writing is for essays and shorter notes, also empty for the moment. So most of what's here right now is the reading.

Reading reflections

Each reflection is dated, and they run in roughly the order I read the books. They start from whatever bothered me about a book, which is not always the thing the book is famous for. Sometimes that goes somewhere unexpected, a Nobel lecture or a study on rats, and sometimes it just stops. I've left those as they are.

A word on the dates. Some of them I know exactly. Others I only know to the month, or the season, and the day shown is a best guess so the list stays in order. Treat those as placements, not records.

The links go to whatever actually helped. The questions at the end of each one are real questions, and I haven't answered most of them.
