Even though this book is generally considered to be Asimov's worst, also by the author himself, it was still an entertaining read
This book, if you can even call it that, has been all filler and no substance. Save yourself the time

Listened to the ebook. Got some good ideas from this, like asking for a deep work budget at work.

Very interesting document, there's a bunch of information in there that is still very relevant for engineering complex systems today. Funny also how it's mentioned in one of the reports that Apollo 13 is going to be doing things differently. Funny how that turned out 😅
It's clear that the story itself is Gibson's, but the writing style is entirely different. I still enjoyed it quite a lot though. I might need to pick up another book by Pat Cadigan in the future
Very good introduction IMO, reiterated a bunch of things I had already learnt through experience (i.e. mistakes) and gave me a lot of new material that I can use in my job

This book was a bit too hard for me. I can imagine that it's really good of you've had an introductory course in philosophy, but for an amateur it's a bit much. Despite this I was introduced to some interesting ideas so it wasn't wasted effort.
Very good introduction to SysML. Doesn't try to do more than introduce the language. Other books try to introduce language, tool and methodology all at the same time. None of that nonsense here. Reading this book made me a better systems engineer and software architect.

Classic Philip K. Dick, stories that have you questioning your sanity
I really love how this book starts from the fundamentals and builds up to the discrete Fourier transform. The idea of the frequency domain and time domain being different coordinates in the same space is also something that blew my mind. It makes sense when you study it, but it's not something that was immediately obvious to me. I'm definitely going to go on to the next book in the series about filters. 10/10 would recommend.
