I used to read tech books left and right. I did C++ instead of Perl in 24 hours. Back when the dinosaurs roamed the earth...

Writing, yes. Many people are still writing tech books. https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/beyond-vibe-coding/9798...

Very relevant book and likely is worth reading for some people.

Reading? I havent read an actual book on tech in ages. Absolute utter waste of time. If i'm not learning the bleeding edge where there is no book, I'm doing something wrong.

1 result that's not relevant?

Sure there's some claude code books available but you can watch like 1 youtube video or just use it and know more than the book author.

IT is changing far too quickly to be waiting on the book publication process.
