Humble Bundle has a deal to get 15 O’Reilly programming books for $25, or 10 books for $18, or 5 books for $1

https://www.humblebundle.com/books/popular-programming-languages-2023-oreilly-books

In my opinion any one of these books may be worth $25 or more, but if you are interested in any one of the 5 in the $1 bundle, this is an easy decision.

That looks like a great deal for $25! Have you read any of these?

No. I'm probably not even going to make a purchase since I'm currently reading and working through Haskell Programming from First Principles (which is a great book so far).

Nice, I've been looking into Mojo language recently after watching a podcast about it. It is a superset of Python that is as fast as Rust. https://www.modular.com/mojo

I signed up and received an invite to Modular's Mojo playground environment. It looks very promising the way they leverage MLIR to implement SIMD in the demo was impressive.

It only took about 24 hours for my invite to go through to get access. It is a very impressive language, Lex Fridman did a podcast recently about it with the creator Chris Lattner https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdJQ8iVTwj8

Am I the only one who regularily sees a Humble Bundle website without any CSS applied when I go to their site lately? I wonder what that's all about 🤔
