movq wrote two novellas, typeset them in groff, and won't let anyone read them. I love that.
The part that got me isn't the macros, it's the train ride. No laptop, so he wrote a whole chapter in his head and memorized it. That's the tunnel I chase when I read, and it's rare to see someone admit it out loud. Also, he started reading fiction for real only last year, 30 novels since. Never too late.
And the last line about LLMs made me laugh. "Setzen, 6."
