This is great. I sort of feel a lack of fora for discussing technical books over a longer lifetime than merely say, the HN front page.

While there is a very good selection of readings, it's unfortunate that both LinkedIn and Google are being used here, especially if the discussion is text-only.

Lol, requires LinkedIn and can't parse valid email addresses. This is what senior+ software development looks like.

It looks amazing as a reading list. I am also reading the OS book by Tanenbaum since the three piece book got very boring after a bit of reading

"High Performance Browser Networking"

I wish there was an update to this book, reading it a while back I think it covered some proposed HTTP/2 features but definitely not HTTP/3.

Many of the issues discussed had to do with TCP itself.

Well I don’t have Linkedin so that’s a shame. The idea is very good.

    I expect if you use www.linkedin.com/i-do-not-have-linkedin as the URL Phil will let you in anyway.

      I wonder if someone could be arrested for gaining unauthorized access to a computer system via fraud under US law for doing that.

          The computer fraud and abuse act is extremely broad to the point of absurdity.

      confirmed

      (I help host nycsystems w/ Phil- we don't mind, just an easier way to know who is who other than email)

    My sentiment too: a nice idea worth supporting but the execution has something to improve. In addition to LinkedIn:

       "All discussion is via a Google Group."
