I read the Kite Runner in my 11th grade high school English class; it was the least-chosen book, I think just because it wasn't familiar to us, but I was just blown away.

I'm still on Book 5, I love Jordan but they're definitely a momentous task to get through!

Meanwhile my teenage brother has already demolished the first 4, which he just received this Christmas 🤣

To paraphrase a friend: stay on the path, make good things. Indie has always flourished in the face of AAA distraction. Times are bad, but let others deskill, pivot to nonsense or chase impossible outcomes. People really like playing videogames. Suits forget that every 6 months or so.

That's possible for sure, I've seen it happen. Journalists use transcription tools quite a lot, or else we couldn't sift through so much tape as quickly as we need to. But yes, to preempt the obvious question: anything that actually gets to print should have been double checked.
