I read a lot! This is a list of my favorite technical books. I also read lots of Terry Pratchett and there
is a very high likelihood I will reference Discworld at you if you aren't careful.
<ul>
<li><b>The Grug Brained Developer</b> <a href="https://grugbrain.dev/">Complexity <i>very, very</i> bad.</a></li>
<li><b>A Philosophy of Software Design</b> While perhaps not the definitive work on software design, PoSD does a pretty good job of highlighting the problems
that occur in large systems and quantifying complexity. You can read the whole thing for free <a href="https://milkov.tech/assets/psd.pdf">here</a>.</li>
<li><b>Pro Git</b> I keep this one on hand at all times; anyone looking to seriously use version control should. The ebook is available at <a href="https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2">this website.</a></li>
<li><b>How Linux Works</b> Do you really know how Linux works if you haven't read How Linux Works? It's not enough to become, like, a core maintainer, but it's essentially
everything a typical superuser needs to know. Buy it at your local bookstore.</li>
<li><b>High Performance Browser Networking</b> Kinda niche stuff but it's fascinating. Read it <a href="https://hpbn.co/">here.</a></li>
<li><b>The Rust Book</b> By far the best way to learn Rust. You can read it for free <a href="https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/">here</a>, but you should buy a copy at your local bookstore.</li>
<li><b>Embedded Rust</b> So I'm a nerd, so what? Read it <a href="https://docs.rust-embedded.org/book/">here.</a></li>
<li><b>Crafting Interpreters</b> Awesome book, read it</li>
</ul>

I also read some blogs:
<ul>
<li><a href="https://ludic.mataroa.blog">Ludicity</a>: probably the angriest Australian on the Internet.</li>
<li><a href="https://www.wheresyoured.at/">Where's Your Ed At?</a>: I don't like this one enough to pay for it. But Ed's occasional free posts are pretty cool.</li>
<li><a href="https://www.kalzumeus.com/">Kalzumeus</a>: Patrick McKenzie (the famous patio11) has all of his well-renowkned blog archives here! They're dated, but still great.
He's not the best engineer or the best salesman ever, but he might be the only person who can do both very well <i>at the same time</i>.</li>
<li><a href="https://www.scottsmitelli.com/">Scott Smitelli</a>: he's such a nerd and it's beautiful</li>
</ul>
