Started What If? by Randall Munroe.
It’s by the guy who runs / draws xkcd.com web comics, and gives serious scientific answers to absurd hypothetical questions. For example: Is it possible to build a jetpack using downward firing machine guns?
Questions are weird like that, but the science is real, so an interesting read. Specially if you are a fan of xkcd.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Still reading Children of Time, by Adrian Tchaïkovski. I’m almost halfway in it. For the moment I enjoy it very much. Half being a great sci-fi story, the world is inhabitable, human search for a new planet (not the only book with this plot) but it’s brilliantly developed and written. And there is what happens on the terraformed planet, which is interesting as a dive into the development of a civilization. This also, of course, portray the flaws of our current civilizations. If the remaining is as good, in my opinion, it’s a great piece of literature on the sci-fi genre.
FANTASTIC book in a fantastic series, I hope you continue to enjoy it! He has a lot of really fun other books too so plenty more to enjoy.
