Read with me

When I approach my wife with a stack of books in my hand, a thick, hard-bound, green book sits on top, with inscrutably small title font. She scans the spines for titles, then squints at the big one. "Another one of your nerd books?" I grin. "I couldn't help myself."

I mostly read fiction (binging Claire Keegan lately), but every now and again our local bookstore tosses a shiny engineering lure out there, and I take the bait. Things like Code, by Charles Petzold. Or Grokking Algorithms, by Aditya Y Bhargava (by the way... have you read ducktyped.org ?) This time it's The Art of Doing science and Engineer: Learning to Learn, by Richard W. Hamming .

I'm going to post here as I go through it and note anything I find interesting or, well, notable. Follow me on Goodreads too, if that's your thing. Any finally, please reply with any favorites, technical or otherwise. I'd love to know what's exciting others.

Happy reading :)
