My 2025 year in books. 18 to recommend among the 50 I read.

Passed $1,000 in holiday fundraising and passed $7,000 in total fundraising. 😍

Slow and steady.

I just finished The Swamp (about the Everglades) by Michael Grunwald. So next up is The Code of Capital by Katharina Pistor (faculty at Columbia Law School).

It reminds me a lot of Capital in the Twenty-First Century by Thomas Piketty, which I very highly recommend.

I think there definitely is a vibe shift among experienced programmers.

Minimize dependencies. Invest more in comprehensive standard libraries. (JavaScript and Rust notably have the least comprehensive standard libraries.)
