@taarion@buecher.pnpde.social 😁 Dein Review stimmt mich positive Habe das Original gelesen und war begeistert. Da die Sprachpoesie mich aber doch an die Grenzen meiner Englischkenntnisse gebracht hat, habe ich mir gerade die Übersetzung gekauft. Hatte etwas Eindruck, dass sie vielleicht nicht so gut ist, die hat du aber ausgeräumt 😁🙏🏻

Ich habe die englische Originalausgabe (This Is How You Lose the Time War) gelesen und ich war begeistert. Allerdings bin ich dabei an die Grenzen meiner Englischkenntnisse gekommen. Ich hatte das Gefühl, dass ich nicht die gesamte Poesie der Sprache verstehen konnte. Deshalb habe ich es jetzt noch Mal auf Deutsch auf meiner Leseliste. Ich hoffe sie Übersetzung ist gut 🤞🏻😁

Interesting book explaining many financial products and looking at what's behind them. Good for a general understanding of the banking crisis of 2008 and the still ongoing problems.

I found the middle part rather repetitive and war sightly bored.

The end again is much better. The author even a fan of our liberal (democratic) capitalism doesn't hold back on criticism of capitalism

I haven't started reading it, but I already have the feeling it is the usual unscientific advice book. It is just not possible for everyone to move develop a dorm room blog into an 8-figure-a-year company. This means that all the advice is anecdotal, not scientific, and probably not generally applicable.

The If Books Could Kill podcast (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/If_Books_Could_Kill) hasn't talked about this book but generally reviews books like this

@secretGeek Do you have a link to "the" video :-)?

A different kind of book. Every time i open it I discover something surprising and inspirational. I don't think this is a book to be read but rather a work of art to be touched and experienced

#TIL I learned about the Zeigarnik Effect.

The brain keeps "background processes" running for uncompleted or interrupted tasks. Unsurprisingly these users cognitive resources which then aren't available for other tasks. Luckily a task can be "completed" by "delegating" it. E.g. writing it down.

Thai explains so much. Why #WIP is important, how #Kaban works, and generally why writing stuff down helps

@RenkeSiems@openbiblio.social I had stumbled on it some time ago. But forgot about it. Thanks for the recommendation. Now on my wishlist

Not a book driving into the technical details, but covering the organisation of the discovery and the stories behind the victims. It is a well written page turner leaving you frustrated about the suvielance industry, the misuse and the lacking regulation.

Just arrived. I'm looking forward to reading it

I really struggle with this book. I just can't get a connection to the story and the writing style :-(
