Hackers

[close] What do you read that helps you "hack" learning? What books make you better? What teaching and learning areas need to be "hacked?" Wha topics do you read and discuss anywhere that make you, your students, your children, the world better?

[close] We meet virtually to read books written by someone in the hacker community. Authors may join once in awhile to enhance the experience and answer questions. These books can be technical or non technical. 100% virtual. Past meetings: YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/49v2f6fv Future everything: Discord: https://discord.gg/RWmJxdAtqc

[close] Inspired by my trilogy, this group was born with the desire to bring together readers who are passionate about the thriller and spy genre on the Middle East. Here we talk about novels that have international intrigues at the center of Israeli Arab conflict.

[close] Techno-thrillers explore the ramifications of emerging technology, science, or natural phenomena in a story where your pulse races to thriller intensity at least briefly. The genre tends toward the relatively near-reaching possibilities of sci-fi, and usually includes enough technical detail/explanation to satisfy your inner geek. This is not your classic crime mystery novel. Not a galaxy far, far away. Not a fantasy. Nothing magical. Plausible physics on/near Earth in roughly the near present/future, roughly as we have known it for at least a good part of the book. It can be also be non-fiction, or yes, sometimes it can indeed be rather far-fetched.
