cellu··on Update on KDP Title Creation Limits
Why do people read contemporary books is something I can’t really get my head around. There’re so many classics to keep people busy for life - and are 100% guaranteed to be insightful and pleasurable.

cellu··on My students never knew’: the lecturer who lived in a tent
I can relate. I did my PhD with a £10,000 (per year for 3 years) scholarship, from which I had to deduct £3,465 for the tuition fees per year. If it wasn’t for the fact that I had a second “night” job as a freelance developer I wouldn’t had been able to pay for rent or food. I could write a compendium of tricks on how to live well below the poverty line lol

cellu··on Beyond Good and Evil (1886) [pdf]
Nietzsche is quite of a complex philosopher to read directly without any guide that looks at his thought holistically imho. I would recommend:

1. Walter Kaufmann’s Nietzsche, Philosopher, Psychologist, Antichrist

2. Basic writings of Nietzsche with Introduction by Peter Gay Translated and edited by Walter Kaufmann Commentary by Martin Heidegger, Albert Camus, and Gilles Deleuze
