The oracle of the age

I am constantly amazed at the contents of YouTube. In alongside goofy cat videos and "idiots trying to park" is a seemingly unending stream of how-to videos. It's a wonderful resource. Whether you want to learn how to change the timing belt on your car, build a 3D printer, learn to juggle or find out about how different electoral systems work, there are videos there for you.

To Say Nothing of the Dog by Connie Willis

I read it because it won a Hugo. I didn't really like it any better than Blackout/All Clear. It was OK but IMO nowhere near Hugo material. It wasn't really a waste of time but I have no interest in reading any more of these things.
