Brajeshwar, an Indian designer and developer, blogs about programming, design, startups, hiring, and technology culture.
HN commenters mostly link it as the author's own site, such as his book list and older posts, rather than giving opinions on it.
This really is an interesting case of plagiarism since there are multiple versions of this article by different authors, each who has slightly changed the other.

There are always better books than the ones I read, and there will never be the best. I’ve tried selecting a few that I can remember at all times, the most interesting book to me, and I’ve listed them on my website at https://brajeshwar.com/#books
If I had to return and re-read, I’d re-read “Leonardo da Vinci.”
I don't know. An entire dedicated domain and GitHub project just for a paragraph and a couple of lists seems excessive. I'm surprised that the author didn't just post this on his blog [1]
