> kind of a stereotype though of tech dudes to be into stoicism
I like this book but completely disagree with your stereotype. In fact, I find the tech dude stereotype to lack perspective, resort easily to anger and personalization, stew in thought, and accuse others for their suffering.
Perhaps the fact that tech dudes have trouble with perspective and emotion control and how to live a good life also draws them to stoicism as a way out, thus resulting in (perceptions of) a lot of tech dudes being into stoicism
