I'm reading a really cool book called "You are not expected to understand this." It's a series of essays on various themes or events in the history of computing. From the first e-mail to how computing drove policing strategy that unfairly targeted minorities which continues today. I'd really recommend it. The individual essays are pretty short and digestible. Perfect for one or two before bed.
Anyone have any similar books to read when I get through this?

For reference I've already read Masters of Doom, Alan Turing: The Enigma and the one about Sega vs. Nintendo in the 90's (forget the name).
Oh and for reference #CoSoTech #Unix #Computing #Geekery
Console Wars... that was it. I know there's more that I'm not remembering right now.
Either way I like learning about the underbelly of computing culture, personalities, software quirks, and more that have happened during my lifetime and before.
