u/alexanderwales [+2] Time flies like an arrow (2 hours later)

This is one of my favorite books of all time, though I do wonder whether I'll be so enamored with it once the future has eclipsed it.

u/Suitov [+1] The Culture (an hour later)

I really enjoyed this, in a Snow Crash way, but I can't say it struck me as especially rationalist so much as nearish-future scifi. With a bunny.

You can't just say "the culture". You need to pick a name.

I thought true names was a lot better.
