Too slow
Review from The Heart of the Buddha’s Teaching →
The author is too slow. Also the pronunciation is not on point. There are a lot of hindi and sanskrit words that he absolutely butchers.
Good insight into the “coder” world but hard to get through the hate of and fear mongering against white males and unbalanced examples of abuse on the networks/technology.

As an avid runner, this book does a wonderful job of showing the vision and effort that successful running takes. I listened to it as I PRed in a half marathon yesterday, I ran with Meb across the finish line 🙂 !
I loved everything about this book. Fascinating and thoroughly entertaining. Great narrator. If you love underdog sports stories, you’ll love this book.
