I got a kindle scribe and I LOVE it.
It's really great as a replacement for paper, working out math and drawing diagrams and such. It can also download pdfs to read and you can put notes on them. Looking forward to reading papers on it.
Also I have about 10 pages done of my "Learning C++ Game Dev Without Graphics" book while at random places. Hand written but need to revise anyhow so no problem typing up later.
It's super rad.

@demofox Have you ever used an iPad-like device as a replacement for paper? I’ve been trying to do that since I got one to teach online during the pandemic, but it just doesn’t feel right, so I keep reaching for real paper. Curious if the kindle feels more like paper than the iPad. Also really excited to see this book! 😊

@jbcolli2 this is way better because instead of being a light version of a laptop, it's functionally very much just a pad of paper in how you use it, how the display works, and has a real long battery life.
