Hey Siri, play playlist “Run 2”.

Instead of your most frequently played playlist named “Run 2”, which is full of your purchased music, and which you listen to all the time, and which is cached locally on this Apple Watch… I’m going to download a random song named “Run 2”, which you’ve never listened to, and which is performed by a group you’ve never heard of.

Maybe I shouldn’t have started testing iOS “Sound Recognition” with “Siren” enabled right before watching 🎬 Die Hard.

📚 I read some books in November!

  • 🎧 Tribe by Sebastian Junger
  • 🎧 The Broom of the System by David Foster Wallace
  • 📚 Wisdom from the Road by Bob Wells
  • 🎧 Brief Interviews with Hideous Men by David Foster Wallace
  • 🎧 Meditations for Mortals by Oliver Burkeman
  • 🎧 A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again by David Foster Wallace
  • 🎧 Wool (The Silo Saga) by Hugh Howey
  • 🎧 Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace

And so I read Infinite Jest again. Then when I finished it for the second time I immediately started over at the beginning. I’m fully aware of the irony. I may have a problem.
