Catch 22 is just about the funniest thing I've ever read. I don't think you'll finish it in a day, but it's amazing.

Never Let Me Go is the most "not for me" book I've ever read. I can see why people love it. And I respect what it's doing. I just don't want to play a long.
Project Hail Mary used to come up on r/books from time to time and was polarizing. Lots of folks loved it. Lots thought it wasn't good.
If you loved the Martian I think you'll like PHM. I did.
I've stopped using stash and mostly just commit to my working branch. I can squah that commit away if I want later. But we squash before merge so it doesn't tend to be worth it.
It's just less things to remember.
I think lots of the kernel folks are paid to contribute full time. For a while I was paid a full time maintainer on some apache licensed search stuff. Before that web stuff.
I guess the demoninator in that fraction is low.
My job is almost entirely public on GitHub. It is in my resume and the next time I use my resume I hope folks read it. Lots of folks won't but they probably don't value my particular set of skills.
I think the usual wisdom is most jobs won't care.
I'm just a hacker. I'll never be a thought leader. But I am passionate about my work. And my kids.
I love solving the problems. I have a few posts on the company blog but they put a chat bot on it a while back and didn't care that it felt offensive to me.
But I'm here, reading this. Maybe I'm grey matter.
My analemma.
My guess is the big video ram is high resolution textures, complex geometry, and a long draw distance. I honestly don't know much about video games though.
The smaller install is totally the map streaming stuff. I'm unsure quite why it has to be so big, but again, I don't know video games. I do recall you having to tell it where you want to start from and it'll download some stuff there.
I recommend it. Try to go in blind.
Many years ago the Unicode Consortium has a fundraiser where you sponsored and emoji. Someone at my company sponsored one and posted to the internal mailing list. Short story short a couple dozen of us sponsored stuff and the company paid us back and wrote a cute blog post. Cheap marketing. Felt good.
