I'm the developer of NeuroAnalyzer.jl - it's a toolbox written in Julia for analyzing neurophysiological data (EEG/NIRS/MEG, etc.) for researchers in psychiatry/neurology/neuroscience. If you would like to join an open-source project - your help is welcome and will be appreciated - look for bugs, expand documentation, unit tests, help with tutorials.

George Orwell 1984. This would be the book if I have to choose only one book to read in my entire life. Also, not bad as the first one. Can't say it's recreational, though.
MP3 player was a life changer. I went from a huge CD players not being able to fit in my pocket to a tiny bean that connects to pc with hundreds of songs, and i was blow away!
My first Atari 800XL computer and programming in general. I got it when I was 8 and as for a few first days I had no games for it but a book on Atari Basic, I started my programming journey then.
Then audio CDs and DVDs.
Then mobile phones.
Now the research equipment I work with.
I thought the original was pretty but otherwise forgettable. What's consensus among viewers for the sequel? Great? Worth watching if you're bored? Skip?
I'm aware that this might be an incorrect generalization, but I do think that in general the EU gov takes more care about the EU people well-being than of corporations', while the US gov does the opposite. At least this is how I feel living in the EU.
I'm surprised no-one has commissioned a TV series of "I, Robot"; it seems tailor-made for it. A set of stand-alone stories, with the same characters throughout, and the stories are brilliant.
Can't recall seeing anything better than The Expanse in the last decade. Love, Death & Robots is great, but that's not a typical TV Show. Altered Carbon S01 was ok.
As title. Even better if whatever you use also helps with recommendations! I’ve been mostly using Goodreads, but Bookwyrm looks like a neat decentralized alternative. Does anyone have any experience with it?
I mostly read on my PocketBook. When finished, I delete a book from the device and mark it in Calibre with a tag "finished". I still have quite a lot of paper books - for those I just remember which I've already read.
I was initially introduced to Mastodon a few years ago by a close friend and picked up on it quickly given the benefits of not having to deal with advertising, or being shown what a mega-corporation thought I should have to see through algorithms. I have since found a great instance over on cupoftea.social that promotes quality...
Regarding the topic, in no particular order, they differ so much..
Arthur C. Clark "2001: A Space Odyssey" - a classic, the book with the best movie adaptation ever
Stanislaw Lem "The Invincible" - great book about life and evolution
Neal Stephenson "Snow Crash" - my favorite cyberpunk novel
Arkady and Boris Strugatsky "Roadside Picnic" - the best approach to the issues of extraterrestrial contact
