I have both the Oxford (Hard) translation and the Hays translation; I think I'll get around to reading the Hays translation at some point.
Update 2025-05-30 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The creator has clarified that finishing Meditations for this market will mean reading all 193 pages of the specific edition they have chosen.
This 193-page total includes an approximately 44-page introduction, which will be counted towards completion.

@EnopoletusHarding I've scrolled up to page 83 in Legge's translation of the Dao De Jing (which I've found to be at least as compatible with North Korean totalitarianism as with its general hippy libertarian interpretation). I expect to finish the Coburn within a week.
@EnopoletusHarding I have posted a review of the Dao De Jing here:

@EnopoletusHarding I have finished 18 out of 193 pages of the Meditations as of now, though that is not counting the 40+ page introduction that I have read, which means I have now read 32% of the book. I have also shifted my chair arrangement to be less flat in the back, which I think has slowed down my reading.
I have finished "$2.00 A Day" and am finishing up the last three chapters of Tom Coburn's "Breach of Trust":

@CraigDemel Very tough to say; I could read at a pace of 100 pages per day earlier, but now realistically it's more like 30. I think Meditations is in the top 10 in my stack.
