Did you get to the chapter where he's bleeding money and spergs out on anyone that questions it?
Walden; or, Life in the Woods by Henry David Thoreau
...
not yet, I only got to the point where he spergs out because people at Zip2 think he is unsuitable as a CEO and he takes it as a personal insult and tries to get the actual CEO fired.
I mean to some degree I can see parts of myself in Elon but it feels like he also is a faggot with way too big of an ego. also seems like some parts in the is book are untrue or exaggerated to make him look like a genius. they always talk how great his workethic was and that he didnt sleep at all basically. and then they go on to say a chapter later he didnt care about school and played vidya for hours and hours.

I hate that book so much.

I'm currently reading that book too. It's a wonder how Musk hasn't gone bankrupt yet.
I've also read pic related this week.
well maybe he will soon. I mean he kinda seems like a smart guy, but also like a delusional egomaniac. So I am torn on the subject.

Why?
I read "So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish" a while back when I was in jail in 2012 and I always wanted to read the whole thing
Always felt like the humor is extremely forced.

>when i was in jail
People go to jail all the time, user. There are thousands of laws and tens of thousands of police officers to enforce them, going to jail is more common than you think.
They had a limited selection
>going to jail is more common than you think
I don't think so user, only personally know one person who went to prison and that was for producing crystal meth.
Buy American!
since when is making crystal a crime ? I thought only selling it was a crime ?

Prison and jail are different things
But how Do it Know? The Basic Principles of Computers for Everyone
I need something more beginner to intermediate material to read after this thinking about electrical engineering, computer history, code/logic, and computing relate math theory. Any recommendations?
Basically homeschooling myself as year 1-2 in CS so I can have as much time as I need for the basics and I'll be well grounded in my understanding of the fundamentals before I try to apply to a program for it.

Yeee

I've also read the Art of Deception, by Kevin Mitnick. That's more social engineering though.
It's an excellent series. I suggest you read them all
An awful place full of pseudointellectuals
nice book, i dont like they killed winston at the end..
I figured I should know how a jet engine works; since I make f35 afterburners for a living.

Neck yourself
Is just Mein Kampf from Elon Musk.
It's pretty funny. Also it's only like 30 pages because it's just a short story.

recently read this.
Good, interesting read.
Cliff is a pretty interesting cool guy, even if he is a little awkward.
got half way through, Gave up. I have never read anything that has so much cringe and nonstop ham-fisted references.
will probably work way better as a movie than it does as a piece of literature
Is it worth reading if I've already read up about the incident, saw interviews with Stoll and watched that Tv-film about this?
If you like this book then I'd very much recommend his followup "I Am A Strange Loop" which does a much better job conveying his ideas with clarity
I need audiobook torrents for both of these
>audiobook
If you're into things like that, Its worth reading. I have also seen the TV movie and the book goes into a lot more detail and he puts his actual logs into the book which is pretty interesting. Its also a pretty quick read (only like 200 pages)
Just started this, can’t speak much for quality yet. Some decent little studying tips so far, though.
Thanks, I'll probably read it then!
Boring.

>he hasn't heard of the transcendentalists
Are you a burger? You better not, having not known Thoreau. The transcendentalists probably constitute America's greatest contribution to philosophy and literature.
>Are you a burger?
No, but having read a bit about him after asking i now understand where the burger's obsession with self reliance might come from and how it stemmed into the prepper mindset.

Heh. I had that pic for some reason. I can't even remember why. It's probably been almost 20 years since I read it.
I lost my page and haven't been bothered to find it again in about two weeks. I guess it still counts.
>almost 20 years
Shit, no. It's been well over 20. Jesus

Literally what
Not super tech related, but I finished up reading a memoir by Cody Wilson (the 3d printed gun guy) about his experiences printing the first liberator pistol. I think it is called "Come and Take it" or something like that.
It was a surprisingly good read. I'm not sure if he wrote it himself, or had it ghost written, but the use of imagery is good, and it is interesting to learn about some of his views.
Theres a podcast by Mike Nelson from MST3K where they read RP1. It's worth a listen.

Looks like the horse has a penis.
Obviously.
The last tech book I read. Frankly doesn't do justice to either Bayes or Python. Would appreciate recommendations on a better book for Bayesian reasoning.
Going through this to eventually move onto Elixir. I started C++ with only a rudimentary knowledge of C which was a bad idea, so I'm going to do it right this time for Elixir.
...
Pic related. But be sure to understand frequentist statistics first; with the years I've come to appreciate Shalizi's opinion about how Bayes is just regularization.

You cant' scape frequentism, even if bayesians call it "calibration".
Recommend me a novel Sup Forums I have read the classics like Gatsby, Mockingbird, Shakespeare, Catcher in the Rye etc. I am also a fan of Terry Pratchett.
However I haven't picked up a book that wasn't manga (I just finished Tasogare Otome × Amnesia) or a programming/unix manual in over a year.
The ring makers of Saturn.

>since I make f35 afterburners for a living.
Maybe it's just me but after reading this I now basically want your entire life story relating to this. Do you know any cool stuff or is it just some boring unrelated job?
