Ask HN: What should I read while offline for a year?

Posted by bgroat on Sunday December 29, 2019 @02:56PM
from the ask-hn dept.

I want to spend a year doing more focused, dedicated studying.

That means avoiding checking websites regularly (including this one) and avoiding following the big shiny things.

However, I want to keep growing as a developer.

I'm currently employed as a web developer (React) however, I'm also interested in AI, Distributed Systems, Security, and general computer science (I'm a self-taught coder).

What are your favourite (paper) resources for studying these subjects?

I am enjoying "Quantum Computing for Everyone". It's by an MIT math professor, and is certainly for "everyone" . . . who wants to learn quantum techniques for linear algebra (e.g., everyone who wants to do some serious work).
