![Cover of Close to the Machine by Ellen Ullman, published 1997-04-26](./cover-6131241.jpeg)

I don't know how this made it onto my pile but it was a quick read (I started it yesterday). It's so weird to read 90s tech memoirs. People were still sorta building stuff back then, weren't sure where things would end up, and so on.
