Hey HN,<p>I’m looking for books to read while camping. I’m open to anything interesting.<p>Not sure if it’s relevant that I’m camping but.. that’s the context.<p>I’m interested in
- Biographies of great programmers/founders
- Functional Programming / Advanced Programming stuff
- Electronics
- General skill related books
- Other interesting stuff
Be warned I'm mostly going for the "other interesting stuff" copout here:<p>○ The Soul of a New Machine (Tracy Kidder) - <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Soul_of_a_New_Machine" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Soul_of_a_New_Machine</a><p>○ The Cuckoo's Egg (Clifford Stoll) - <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cuckoo%27s_Egg_(book)" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cuckoo%27s_Egg_(book)</a><p>○ Angry White Pyjamas (Robert Twigger) - <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angry_White_Pyjamas" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angry_White_Pyjamas</a><p>○ Impro: Improvisation and the Theatre (Keith Johnstone) - <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impro:_Improvisation_and_the_Theatre" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impro:_Improvisation_and_the_T...</a><p>○ What If? (Randall Munroe) - <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What_If%3F_(book)" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What_If%3F_(book)</a><p>○ The Inventions of Daedalus (David E.H. Jones) - <a href="https://archive.org/details/inventionsofdaed0000jone" rel="nofollow">https://archive.org/details/inventionsofdaed0000jone</a><p>That last one is sadly out of print now but fairly easy to obtain secondhand - if you like Randall Munroe's `What If?` books then this is likely to appeal to you too.
