Review of 'Hackers & painters' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

This is a collection of essays written by Paul Graham (I'm assuming you know who he is). Basically, you can read in any order and skip what you don't like. The chapters about Lisp and language design are the best. He had some time learning art in Italy so random art subjects appear here and there in the essay is quite interesting. He's quite assertive on some subjects so ready to be disapproval of some. They are essays after all.
