Source & Proof

God's Debris80% Confidence

We found a public source for this recommendation, but quote text is hidden because attribution could not be safely verified.

Everything by Jed McKenna. Jed spits raw truth. His style may be offputting but the dedication to truth is unparalleled.
Genius80% Confidence
Richard Feynman is a famous physicist. I love both his demeanor as well as his understanding of physics. I’ve also been reading Perfectly Reasonable Deviations from the Beaten Track by Feynman and rereading Genius: The Life and Science of Richard Feynman, a biography about him.
Ficciones80% Confidence
I love Jorge Luis Borges, the Argentine author. His short story collection Ficciones, or Labyrinths, is amazing. Borges is probably still the most powerful author I have read who wasn’t just outright writing philosophy. There was philosophy in there with the scifi.
@moids Freedom from the Known is just as good. Think on These Things is just the first one that I stumbled upon.
Hamlet80% Confidence

@kaus__02 Autobiography of a Spiritually Incorrect Mystic.
Flowers for Algernon80% Confidence
It was really fun to read from start to finish however and I really, really enjoyed it.
Direct Truth80% Confidence
Everything by Kapil Gupta, MD. Kapil recently became a personal advisor and coach to me, and this comes from a person who doesn’t believe in coaches
