I love books that stand the test of time.
My parents are very supportive: they helped redirect my technology attitude and my punkness into positive things.
My career choice has largely been what I wanted to do. I always knew that technology would be one of the threads.
When I look for new books, I often struggle to find things that challenge and entertain me. This has caused me to spend a number of cycles thinking about where I can get the serendipitous book discovery experience that we had in physical book stores.
One of my favourite books about hackers is 'Masters of Deception' about this hacking group in the 1990s. Many of them didn't come from wealthy families. These are kids that are very intelligent; they just happen to be misdirected.
