Can’t believe I’m the first/only one to post these: - Upgrade by Blake Crouch - Biography of the Pixel by Alvy Ray Smith Like Project Hail Mary, Upgrade is the kind of book I really wanted back when I was a michael crichton fan. His last book, Recursion was really my favorite. I love books that secretly teach you a thing or two and celebrate science and engineering. Biography of the Pixel was a fascinating history of computer graphics and fundamental graphics concepts.
