Hey everyone! I've been working on a book called The Magic of Cod e and it is going to be seeing the light of day next year! It is about the wonders and weirdness of computation, and how thinking about computers and code and lead one to think about everything from philosophy and language to biology and the nature of thought. It explores many "future of coding" themes and is geared towards a general audience (though I think there are enough weird topics in it that even experts will hopefully find something of interest!). Here's a bit more about the book: arbesman.substack.com/p/computation-and-wonder-soon-in-book

Why can't I buy this book for my Kindle in Germany?

Alas, that is something I don't know...

Hey, I'm running an experiment: There is a public shared instance of smallweb running at smallweb.live.

Come and leave something there (you can even break it, but I'm sure you'll be nice).
