As an example, I love the Martian, and I think a lot of older books from authors like Asimov are heavily into engineering / competence porn. Other favs in this category include the standalone novel Rendezvous with Rama to leave you wishing for more, most of the Culture series for happy utopian vibes, Schlock Mercenary for humor, Dahak series for fun mindless popcorn.
Edit: I’m so happy to have found a replacement for r/books and the rest of them.
Oh, whoosh :(
I don’t have an option to accept/reject alternative spellings – what I see is a message along the lines of “showing results for FUBAR; do you really want to search only for FooBar?”
Yeah, that’s Google defaulting to showing you the results for the suggested alternative. If you click yes on FooBar then you’re telling Google to stop trying to be smart and show you what you’re actually searching for.
