		Ask HN: technical book club recommendations?
		2 points by bcherny on Jan 22, 2021 \| hide \| past \| favorite \| 2 comments

		Hey HN! I run an engineering book club at work, and we’re looking for our next book. Any suggestions? Our last book was Designing Data Intensive Applications, which was phenomenal. Context: - It’s ~30 engineers that split up into smaller discussion groups - People have different levels of experience (some new grad, some have been coding for 10+ years) - There’s a mix of stacks: server, mobile, web, ML - We’re looking for something technical, but relevant and practical and not too abstract

I have written a book on the future business implication of AI. It is called "Employeeless?" You might want to check it out,
