Reading List
This used to be books only, but I've expanded to any decently sized learning. If anything is unfinished for too long, it's either time to throw in the towel or push through to the end! How I read technical books and documentation
Various factors affect ratings including relevancy, writing style, understandability, vibes, and so on. A low score doesn't mean I think a book isn't worth reading!
