What are young technically minded people reading?


When I was young we read books like Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman! by Richard Feynman, Neuromancer by William Gibson and So You Want to be a Mathematician by Paul Halmos. What books are popular with young technically minded people today?

I just got through Abundance by Ezra Klein and thoroughly enjoyed it.

I'm pretty technically minded, but first I should probably ask: what's the age cut-off for "young"?
