A bright high school student just asked me for a recommendation for a book about the bronze age. Any @histodons or folx have a recommendation for a public facing book?

@ERBeckman @histodons Eric Cline's book on the Bronze Age collapse is quite good: 1177 B.C.: The Year Civilization Collapsed

Both academics and authors live in precarity. The overwhelming majority have neither tenure nor best-sellers, so the existential pressure to reach a larger audience with each publication is very strong.

That's why asswipes like this dude so frequently prey on us. This particular asswipe wants to charge me a "nominal fee" of

‼️ $890 ‼️

Recommendations for a FOSS Cross-Platform Note-Taking Application

Up to now I’ve been using Simplenote, which has a Linux client (but also Android & iOS) & supports live collaboration on notes.
