The Social Order of the Underworld: How Prison Gangs Govern the American Penal System by David Skarbek. It discusses decentralised governance in its purest form!
I read The Invisible Hook: The Hidden Economics of Pirates by Peter T. Leeson some years ago and I found a recommendation online that this book was similar.
The section on prison gang taxation is particularly interesting.
This book set me on my track to becoming a libertarian (possibly even an anarchist). It's a great story, but with some great lessons on politics and freedom. Robert Heinlein is a great author.
Really well-constructed arguments and points. Not much that most of us here don't know (at least in theory, if not all the specific examples), but her analysis of how one person giving up privacy impacts friends, family, and co-workers is impressive.
Yes, short, snappy chapters.
Focus on how to use mindfulness and meditation to lessen the burden of modern life pressures, like over-stimulation, stress
I only just started it but seems promising. Not many things better than having passive fiat income which can be swapped for the hardest asset on earth!
I’m reading Who Gets What and Why and Anathem and an obscure linear algebra book
I studied two modules of linear algebra in college. How does linear algebra help with the coding/programming of SN?
We use LA for our web of trust stuff. I want to do more fun LA things with web of trust after we get our wallet sorted.
Which LA book?
Anathem is my favorite Stephenson book.
this one
I'm not a fan of the opening, but I'm past it now. The things we do for things that aren't even love.

One of the true classics!
Yup. Old but so good!

Profit first from Mike Michalowicz. I can only recommend you to read it to turn things around in your business.
For anyone who works with sales... You must read "The Millionaire Salesman - Yudis Lonzoy"
I think for today there so many that are so relevant. An awesome read for culture today I think is “By what standard” by Rush Dooney
