Bitwise

In 'Bitwise: A Life in Code', David Auerbach recounts his journey through the world of computer languages and codes, reflecting on how algorithms have standardized and coarsened our lives.

The book is both a personal memoir and a philosophical examination of the impact of technology on human identity and expression.

Auerbach argues that while technology offers tools to bridge the gap between humans and machines, it also risks erasing our nuances and idiosyncrasies.
