Readings

I have always enjoyed reading. My friends found it funny to see me deep into the physics book during the college holidays. If they asked why I was reading academics, I would say, “I was getting bored.” It became a joke.

One of my primary school teachers used to say, “When we understand something thoroughly, it becomes a part of us. And we don’t need to remember it.” That has remained the foundation of my learning to this day, thereby the underlying purpose of each of my readings.

Before 2011, I mostly read computer and programming-related books. Then I read Sapiens, and after that, I started exploring various topics. Usually, upon finishing a book, I try to find a book with contradictory views.

The randomly ordered list here doesn’t include everything that I have read, but neither does it mean that everything listed here is well-acquired knowledge.
