Algorithms to live by. It has very good insights and I think I'll be revisiting it when making big life decisions

This one is really good. I think the title is a bit misleading though, possibly putting some people off unneccessarily. I found it is more about "Algorithms that govern the Universe" than some kind of recommendations for how to live. With that title, I would have read it much sooner as well.

A great general one that HN folks should enjoy: Algorithms to Live By: The Computer Science of Human Decisions by Brian Christian & Tom Griffiths https://www.amazon.com/Algorithms-Live-Computer-Science-Deci... (https://www.amazon.com/Algorithms-Live-Computer-Science-Decisions/dp/1627790365)

I loved "Algorithms to Live By" by Brian Christian and tom Griffiths. It's not quite as focused on the technical side of things as the books you listed, but I still enjoyed it quite a bit.

2nded. Amazing and engaging book

"Algorithms to Live By: The Computer Science of Human Decisions" by Brian Christian and Tom Griffiths is an interesting listen on Audible. Surprised that nobody has mentioned it here yet. It is a perfect candidate for an audiobook because of lack of code snippets and formulae.
