A Commentary on the Sixth Edition Unix Operating System
A Commentary on the Sixth Edition Unix Operating System

I've owned a copy of Lions' for a long time; perhaps 25 years at the time of writing. I'm pretty sure it was one of the firts books I ordered from this wee book-selling website called Amazon, back in 1999.

Here's an online version.

Why “Everyone Dies” Gets AGI All Wrong
Why “Everyone Dies” Gets AGI All Wrong
"Everyone Dies" is on my to-read list. From what I've seen it sounds pretty alarmist, but also that feels like that's the point. This article seems pretty negative on it (not that I've read the article at the time of saving this) so I'm keeping a link to this to read at some point in the future, once I've read the book.

Why “Everyone Dies” Gets AGI All Wrong
Computer Graphics from Scratch
Computer Graphics from Scratch
This broad introductory book gives you an overview of the computer graphics field with a focus on two core areas of modern graphics: raytracing and rasterization. Links to interactive demos throughout bring the algorithms alive. Every algorithm is built up without the use of external libraries or APIs and is presented with language agnostic pseudocode, allowing anyone with a basic understanding of programming and high school math to follow along.
