This is so neat, as Phil mentioned in the How to run a software bookclub post, out of a group of 500, only 1-2%, 5-10 people may contribute with comments. But he lets the group grow in size because it is minimal overhead and many "lurkers" say they really appreciate reading the comments and get a lot out of it.

I am left wondering is there any way to see past comments on book discussions? I would love to read the discussions as I go through a book already done by the club on my own.

It looks amazing as a reading list. I am also reading the OS book by Tanenbaum since the three piece book got very boring after a bit of reading

Lol, requires LinkedIn and can't parse valid email addresses. This is what senior+ software development looks like.

This is great. I sort of feel a lack of fora for discussing technical books over a longer lifetime than merely say, the HN front page.

While there is a very good selection of readings, it's unfortunate that both LinkedIn and Google are being used here, especially if the discussion is text-only.

"High Performance Browser Networking"

I wish there was an update to this book, reading it a while back I think it covered some proposed HTTP/2 features but definitely not HTTP/3.

Many of the issues discussed had to do with TCP itself.

I would love to see a maths version of this bookclub

Well I don’t have Linkedin so that’s a shame. The idea is very good.
