Of Sci-Fi I've liked recently:
 - the whole murderbot series so far by Martha Wells (lightweight humorous reads with a side-serving of corporate dystopia)
 - all of the A Lady Astronaut books by Mary Robinette Kowal (charming characters, alternate history, light gender and race politics)
 - The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins (a hunger games prequel, that, like the originals I read in pretty much one sitting)
 - The Constant Rabbit by Jasper Fforde (humorous socio-political satire, well-written with touches of Nighteen Eighty-Four, Stranger in Strange Land)
 - Space Opera by Catherynne M Valente (sensing a theme of uplifting stuff here due to recent times... this one reads like a Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy novel for the pansexual gutterglam generation, some of the scenes legitimately made me cry)
 - the Machineries of Empire series by Yoon Ha Lee (amazing epic space stuff that just goes up and up and up, has a neat concept for altering the physical rules of the universe that takes a li

Is there a job queue system (or a job queue system plus an approach to using it) that lets
me only process jobs with a maximum concurrency based on some property of the job?

The workload looks like

  U1, J1
  U1, J2
  U2, J3
  U1, J4

Here's a google map i've been curating for 8 years or so while google slowly makes the custom maps look worse (you'll have to click on names to get the descriptions now) I marked the new office way over to the left:

Musings:

• It'll be chilly and wet, if you have water resistant boots you'll want em, ditto for a coat. You can buy umbrellas for a couple euros at the AKO shops around train stations.
• If your bank is anything like mine they will shut off your credit card and ATM cards a few days into the trip. You can call them beforehand and tell them you are about to travel and it helps, but even still I usually get like 250€ as soon as I arrive so that I have backup.
• Jetlag-wise the first couple days are usually the hardest, luckily there are a few of us arriving at the same time so we can grab dinner after work, have a beer or two, etc. Keeping to a normal schedule helps and you really want to stay out until
