Links #7
- Agnes Callard on why difficult old books make for independent minds — an interesting point I hadn’t thought much about before
- C. S. Lewis on reading old books — I reread this in connection with Agnes’s post and it’s still good
- Austin Kleon on books with unusual but brilliant structures — this kind of thing fascinates me
- Oz Nova on the cost of forsaking C — while I hardly ever program in C anymore and it’s still a footgun, I actually like it a lot
- Swyx on moving the default Git branch from master to main — something I’m planning to do with my personal repos
