- squarefoot 3y agosome really good books mentioned, but check their release dates before purchasing, unless you're working on an older UNIX system. Linux and its ecosystem is a moving target that changes a lot faster, and some books in that list are 10+ years old.
- antegamisou 3y agoI'm not familiar with advanced Linux systems programming but haven't the internals/kernel remain unaffected?

- adr1an 3y agoI was expecting to see 'Bioinformatic Data Skills' by Vince Buffalo, it teaches data science on the shell with bioinformatic file formats. Great book!
- a_bonobo 3y agoThere's a similar O'Reilly book, Data Science at the Command Line, which I can also recommend: https://datascienceatthecommandline.com/ https://datascienceatthecommandline.com/ Buffalo's book is great and I generally recommend it in my bioinformatics career, but it does go into some speciifc niches (especially the IRanges/GenomicRanges parts!). Jannsen's book is a bit more 'generic', for lack of a better word

- redeux 3y agoIsn’t this just ad and affiliate link spam? I see similar GitHub repos all the time offering recommendations for these books and more. If you search “awesome Linux” or “awesome Linux books” on GitHub surely you’ll find what you’re looking for. To me, this just comes across as an attempt to monetize the HN audience without doing any real work or providing real value.
- ghostpepper 3y agoI was idly wondering if it was written by chatgpt. It’s a pretty big red flag when an article leads with “Before I tell you <the thing you came here to find out>, you might be wondering why someone would want to know <the thing you came here to find out>”

- mmh0000 3y agoI suspect you're being downvoted not because of your message, but because of your aggressive attitude, at least, that's why I downvoted you :) No one wants to deal with that. Lets test. Hey HN! If you don't mind piracy, these books are freely available at ThePirateBay and OceanOfPDF: The Linux Command Line - https://thepiratebay.org/description.php?id=60092203 https://thepiratebay.org/description.php?id=60092203 How Linux Works - https://oceanofpdf.com/authors/brian-ward/pdf-epub-how-linux-works-what-every-superuser-should-know-download/ https://oceanofpdf.com/authors/brian-ward/pdf-epub-how-linux... The others are easily searchable.

- strzibny 3y agoHow Linux Works is a good one. If someone is looking for a bit of Linux but with connection to deploying web application, I made a book like that[0]. [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29540808 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29540808
