The Points are Okay (at Best) but it's a Rant

This book is a professional rant with some fat-phobic tendencies sprinkled throughout the book (make data lean! go out and exercise; lest you become obese with data). The extremely lanky approach to approach (no explicit footnotes so you have to infer whether or not the point is speculative or from a source without losing your positions because the formatting implies that only bolding text was an option).

The point about data waste (keeping 10 when two will do) and hardware waste manufactured by corporate profits (with clear lines to Big American Tech) were good but they were assulted by rants surrounding it. You're better off listening directly to climate experts, iFixTech and werepair.org/ directly - this book is worth missing, for your vision.
