How was that list compiled?

I don't really understand people who chooses to MVP a startup writing their own EVERYTHING

Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption Zamperini's life was a series of hard things. Going to the Olympics, surviving a plane crash, then 47 days at sea, then a Japanese concentration camp ...

Very well written as well

I learned math from a lady who would shout all the time, tell us we would amount to nothing and would throw a wooden chalkboard eraser at us.

How the hell can I teach myself to enjoy math?

This reminded me of a friend who has a very serious form of cancer. His monitor died, so I decided to give him one as a gift, since he spends all his time at home doing nothing.

I went with my girlfriend to deliver it and I reminded he used to tape and catalog F1 races and other stuff. I asked if he was watching one of these types and he proceeded to open a large cabinet and give us a tour of his meticulously catalogued and tagged 70's and 80's porn collection.

Also, even though I believe people should be paid for the quality of their work, not their location, props for at least being the most transparent as possible about it.

Marie Antoinette's biography by Antonia Fraser.

Masterfully written, a tidbit of how sexism played a role on making her a historical villain while all the men around her, even the beheaded king, passed on as much less dangerous people.

Looks nice, I'm in LATAM, I'll give it a poke!

Are we all doomed? Why?
