As disaffected as it is, i think Neal Stepheson's "Diamond Age" has programming book "backstory" that carries weight many years later...sort of a 3rd decade insight class of wisdom...

Could you elaborate on what kind of wisdom you gleaned from it?

I've read it and enjoyed it, but wondering what insights you got from it.
