I wrote a similar tool for Linux many years ago: https://github.com/fbngrm/DiscoPy


1. Like every year "The daily stoic" 2. "The twilight zone" by Werner Herzog 3. "Thinking fast and slow" 4. "Hang the red lantern" 5. Currently reading "Menschliches allzu menschliches" by Nietzsche


I feel like Thinkign fast and slow is one of those books on everyone's shelf that people like to show but nobody reads it due to its difficulty and readability. How did you like it?


Not parent, but I liked it a lot. But I wonder if by now the ideas have permeated thinking-person culture enough that it’s not worth it.

I really like Werner Herzog. Too many good ones to list them all here. He brings in a lot of social implications of whatever subject he covers. A lot of randomness as well which is often quite funny. E.g. Encounters at the end of the world or Lo and behold: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lo_and_Behold,_Reveries_of_the...

Petter Mettler is a great film maker imo, e.g. Picture of Light, due to the poetic and philosophical elements mixed in with actual documentation. Visually very appealing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picture_of_Light

Another favorite film maker is Stanislav Mucha who covers a lot of European topics and in particular German. Very ironic and partly sarcastic. Favs are Absolute Warhola, a film about Andy Warhol's extended family in Slovakia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolut_Warhola

Also, The Truth about Dracula is very interesting and funny: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1621024/

Some comment called it "the manual to life" which is a pretty good summary imo.

Thanks for the comment. Matroschka is the German transliteration.
