Real life

We spent 5 days in Rome, and enjoyed gorgeous weather and nice temperatures in a truly unique city. For once, we mostly visited "tourist stuff" and really liked it. Here are a few pictures.

We had busy days and walked a lot, so I did not have much energy to read but still read a book about the history of French external secret services, DGSE: Une brève histoire du renseignement français, that was interesting.

I barely ran (5.16 km...) but we walked a lot (44.47 km) so it was an OK week sport wise. And I decided to take a short vacation at GeoGuessr - we'll see if it makes me better, worse or has 0 effect.

Open source

I did not do any meaningful work this week, only fixing a minor SourceHut regression with a trivial service patch and a related fix in hut.
