Smart people of Nostr,

I like reading books. What do you suggest for going deeper down the rabbit hole? Any topic, but preferably something outside of economics.

I read thousands of books, so I have no advice to rec. 😏

But ok, have you read Heinlein? Like "The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress"? More relevant than ever. Artificial intelligence and all that

Thanks, I’ll take a look! Why do you suggest this book in particular?

I'm not a native speaker, so reading fiction in English is a bit of a challenge and takes a lot of time because of the many colloquialisms and complex sentence structures.

Because we are literally living in Heinlein's universe. The word "Grok" was coined by him for another book, the hippie bible 1960s. What's the most popular game right now? It's based on Starship Troopers. Who invented private space company? Who described the first AI? And so on

На русском читать книгу надо только в переводе Александра Щербакова. На других языках к сожалению не знаю какие переводы наиболее корректно переводят игру полублатных слов оригинала.

Reading a lodging of wayfaring men right now, pretty good. It's like an atlash shrugged lite version.

i’ll keep it in mind
