I’m not just saying this because you said you’re a woman but I liked nostarch.com/smartgirlsguide
For my friends with kids about to use the internet without restriction I’ve been getting them copies so they have something to refer to if they need it. It’s a good overview and leads to books better suited for specific topics.
The books from this guy have also been pretty helpful: inteltechniques.com/books.html

I like both of my laptops so far but have mixed feelings on both. I know it’s not a lot to go on but here’s been my experience so far. Dell XPS 15 and my new framework. Sorry, don’t know the model name.
Two days ago I received a framework laptop for work but haven’t been able to test anything other than installing Kubuntu. It was shipped to me from my employer so they had the final say in how it was configured but a few things went wrong. Not sure whose fault it was but in the end it’s still fine. I configured it to have a mix of usb-c and usb-a ports, 3.5mm audio, and display port. It came with six usb-c modules. Fine. I can live with that. The thing that really made me mad was that I requested a keyboard with no Windows key and to have no OS installed. It came with Windows 11 installed and had the Windows key on the keyboard. I don’t know who messed up but I’m not mad enough to do or say anything about. I do like that repairs and changes on this machine will be easier/possible. Oh…audio worked right away too so that was nice. Already better than the Dell XPS I bought with my own money and has crackling audio due to hardware not software issues. Works fine through an audio interface but the speakers sound like ass. I should have returned that machine right away.

They also get an visual indicator from the flowers we can’t see. The bees just need a rough map to the area. Check this shit out: smithsonianmag.com/…/flowers-manipulate-light-to-…
This explains the waggle dance in a way I like: beeprofessor.com/waggle-dance/
More cool info about bees. Bee lifecycles, how queens are made and supercedure are my favorite topics.
