After a thread on how difficult it is to acquire books in some countries, I started a conversation with @OReillyMedia about how we could make my book more available.

Thanks to some great work by O'Reilly, my first book is now completely free: https://www.codesimplicity.com/book/

The work you do has an effect on the world. Even if it’s a small effect, it’s still affecting some part of the world in some way. You are in fact constantly changing the world.

You can’t solve problems that don’t exist. When somebody tells me a solution is “unknowable,” they are always talking about some abstract thing, never the real problem that actually exists in the physical universe. You have to solve the problem that actually exists.

Although we work on technology, it’s important to remember that we do it to help people, and that those people (most of whom we don’t know and have no idea specifically how they depend on us) are impacted by our work. https://twitter.com/ruffianrabbit/status/1504570934702874630
