More of a fun read than a compendium of actionable recipes.

Nothing particularly remarkable about this review. I was hoping for more insight into the cultural impact of 911. Emphasis has been on the political so far which is well known.

I used to feel pretty secure in my views of social justice. Not anymore.

Enjoying this book again after being away for a while. The matching of skills to challenges is still the most memorable bit but the next chapter seems to promise more usable stuff.

Definitely focused the problems of work in a big organization. Probably enjoying the essays the most.

There is a bit of a "how to survive in a big company vibe" at this point. Still, very entertaining read so far.

I hadn't really thought of this as a self-help book but understand that categorization by other readers. The essay by Tom Preston-Werner was great: How I Turned Down $300k from Microsoft to Go Full-Time on GiHub.
