keep reading. Parts about libraries & hacking language were kind of cool, almost seem to be from a different book.

what said applies especially to Snow Crash. Back then the book's impact was huge. Still reads well IMO

Diamond Age was ok, but comes 3rd-ish with Seveneves in my pers list. Cryptonomicon comes 2nd

I've read cryptonomicon and diamond age. If I do another it will be snowcrash prob
like reading Endymion without reading Hyperion. That may or may not have meaning 4 you.

it does not have meaning for me. I am unsystematic in my reading, like Sherlock Holmes :D

I'm surprised one as well-read as you hasn't read snow crash. (1/2)
