Just can't stop reading this book. Bought last evening, and almost 60% through. Don’t remember exclaiming so much while reading a book!
As I was boarding a flight earlier this week, I noticed Meta was trying to block publication of a memoir called "Careless People", by Sarah Wynn-Williams. www.amazon.com/Careless-Peo...
I swiftly downloaded it, and over the next two days I *inhaled* it. If I wasn't working, I was reading. SO GOOD.

TypeScript team: rewrites compiler in Go.
Go community: what do you mean your new compiler takes more than a minute to compile? Unacceptable. Dishonorable even. We are so sorry for this sub par experience. Not how we do things around here.
Two days later: WIP 5x speedup.
HN: why pick Go anyway?

The Synthesis Lectures on Computer Architecture are some of the best little technical books I've read. And TIL the same group has an entire series on Data Management.
