    They’re FOSS competence porn and wish fulfillment fantasy. I’m 100% on board with his politics and ideas, but the stories are a bit weak.

    They’re fun though.

      They’re FOSS competence porn…

      That may be the best most detailed description I’ve ever seen in three words. Sounds like it could be interesting

      While they’re written for a YA audience, (doesn’t include me) I read and enjoyed both Little Brother, Homeland, and Makers. Cory’s head is almost always in the right place for me (including at readings.)

      Exactly the kind of porn youngsters leading to become adults should read, IMO.
