Stealing Everyone's DDIA Copy
every time I go to a swe’s house, I steal their copy of DDIA to see how long it takes them to notice it’s missing. I’ve done this over 20 times and nobody’s caught on. That’s why the modern web is trash! Nobody reads this book, they just buy it and post it for clout. Designing Data-Intensive Applications Martin Kleppmann O’REILLY
A tweet jokes about repeatedly stealing copies of “Designing Data-Intensive Applications” from software engineers’ homes, shown as a comically tall stack of identical books. The punchline is that nobody notices because they buy the famous programming book for status and never read it. It is used as a reaction to performative tech culture and people posting books for clout.
