@forst@mastodon.social @ret@furry.engineer I wonder if there's still a market for "how stuff works" books that give you a basic understanding about technological things you may have seen in the wild. They were everywhere when I was little, but the last good one I've found ("Infrastructure: a guide to the industrial landscape" by Brian Hayes) is from 2005. I would be sad if the only option for a budding nerd today is to sit through 30-minute YouTube videos that still manage to convey less information than two pages of a good book.
