According to my daughter I'm "in love with books".

I read a lot of Nonfiction books related to Cyber Security, Organizational Development, and Software Development in general. I'm interested in the human side of technology.

Bruce Schneier: A Hacker's Mind (Hardcover, 2023, W. W. Norton & Company) 3 stars

A hack is any means of subverting a system’s rules in unintended ways. The tax …

The book covers an important topic, but it stays very shallow. In the end it's just a long list of things which are hacked.

Especially the "How to Bend them Back" pay off the subtitle is missing.

It is well written but I really struggled with reading it. I think that is because I completely missed the "why". I don't know what the Bruce Schneier tries to accomplish with the book. I don't even know whom it addresses. All in all an insatisfactory read.

Deb Chachra: How Infrastructure Works (2023, Penguin Publishing Group) 5 stars

A new way of seeing the essential systems hidden inside our walls, under our streets, …

Just finished reading "How Infrastructure Works". It really touched me.

This might sound like a surprising thing to say about a book about infrastructure. But it speaks to the book itself. And infrastructure touches everybody's life countless times every day.

It's hard to imagine that i will tag a better non-fiction book this year.

Highly recommended
