I like how the article is saying how it's doable and more defending someone with such a reading list. I'm not a big fan of fiction myself and almost exclusively stick to non-fiction (history, biology, engineering, and technology related topics) but would advocate someone trying out this list or similar. The books mentioned are pretty standard core in my opinion.
My SO reads a lot and is a member/host of multiple book clubs so good for folks who are into this.
I'm ambivalent about this being based off Fridman, would folks react differently if it was Paul Graham or some other known figure?
That's a good point, maybe I should remove the last part. I don't even know they guy. I just don't like seeing people being discouraged from reading ambitiously, no matter who they are. Especially when the numbers add up just fine.
