alt Hacker NewsIs there a HN convention for links to books?
This book appears to be available only for preorder now, not yet published. Nobody here has read it, nobody here can read it, and even if they could, this submission will disappear off the front pages before commenters have a chance to order and read the book. Thus the comments section here is going to be useless (or at least more useless than usual).

Very good question - posted it for awareness / sparking hopefully nuanced “are we the baddies here?” reflection in the community, and curious folks to preorder.
Perhaps a link to the author's website and podcast would be more appropriate?
I don't know what happened to this website but stuff like this keeps hitting the front page more and more often despite having close to zero value. It feels like SEO spam to me.
The comments section here is a phenomenal expository of biases, for the very reason you cite.
I wanted to disagree then checked the release date. It’s August of 2026. Really early to be discussing this.
