As a programming student i feel sometimes we go a bit too technical and we lose the philosophy and the main point of what we are doing.

What are some great books (classics and none) to read on programming?

I'm interested to the topic of programming and computer science in general but especially to the cypherpunk philosophy and to concepts like the story of internet, the philosophy that led to the beginning of it etc..

A not technical book about programming I would suggest: https://themediocreprogrammer.com/what-is-the-mediocre-programmer.html#what-is-the-mediocre-programmer
