Пока ждал одну книгу, прослушал совсем короткую "Этический инженер" Гарри Гаррисона (в других переводах "Специалист по этике"). Вообще, Гаррисона я когда-то начинал читать — "Крыса из нержавеющей стали" — но по каким-то причинам бросил, не помню.
А тут вот вчитался (вслушался). По современным меркам сюжет избитый — человек из развитой цивилизации попадает в мир, едва дошедший до парового двигателя, и начинает там своими знаниями совершать революцию во всех смыслах. Но книга вышла в 1964 году, так что это скорее последующие авторы романов о попаданцах вдохновлялись ей, а не наоборот. Еще могу отметить, что повествование очень сжатое, без лишней воды, события идут плотно, поэтому даже при сравнительной простоте вполне цепляет и не даёт скучать.
Задумался о том, что, если у школьной литературы была задача познакомить меня с, собственно, литературой, то эта задача в значительной мере провалена. Большая часть программы была сосредоточена на русской классике и практически полностью игнорировала как зарубежных авторов, так и — что самое обидное — другие жанры. Мне трудно представить, в каком восторге я был бы от вещей вроде "Этического инженера" в старшей школе. Я совершенно точно хотел бы узнать о существовании многих авторов, жанров и произведений еще в 14-18 лет, а не только сейчас, когда есть интернет, и когда я сам прикладываю много усилий к поиску книг.

http://www.enlistq.com/10-python-idioms-to-help-you-improve-your-code/
If you have ever tried to learn a new language (not a programming language), you know that we always think in our native language before we translate it to the new language. This can lead to you forming some sentences that don’t make sense in the new language but are perfectly normal in your native language. For example, in a lot of languages, you ‘open’ an electronic gadget such as fan, AC or cell phone. When you say that in English, it means to literally open the gadget instead of turning it on.
The same is true for programming languages. As we pick up new languages, such as #python, we are using our prior knowledge of programming in another language (q, java, c++ etc) and translating that to python. Many times, your code will work but it won’t be ‘#pretty’ or #fast. In python terms, your code won’t be ‘#pythonic’.
