I think you and I have somewhat different tastes in books. Most of my favorites don't fall under programming, tech, DIY, and science, but some do. I've shared some below broken into your taste and other in case you want to venture out and try something new.

Programming, Tech, DIY, & Science

One, Two, Three...Infinity by George Gamov

• An actual science book that fits with your interests! It's a book that covers major theories/areas of physical science and math in an interesting way that a layperson can understand it. I learned more from this book that any formal training on the matter. The book starts off with defining counting and infinity.

Bigger, Leaner, Stronger by Michael Matthews

• Provides education on weightlifting, from learning to design your own workouts & schedules to weightlifting diets. He goes into why certain workouts and diets work based on science. I have followed the recommendations in this book multiple times (separate episodes), and found them to be quite effective.

Mirrors: Stories of Almost Everyone by Eduardo Galeano

• A book that covers the history of humanity with a sense of social justice and poetic style. It's written in short poems rooted in actual history, but presents a perspective that is not typical of the common narrative.

A Field Guide to Earthlings by Ian Ford

• This is a guide written by an autistic person for autistic people on understanding the neurotypical world. The premise is that autistic and neurotypical people are quite different from each other, to the point that they see each other as aliens. Because of this, it hits the reader differently depending on their neurotype. If the reader is autistic, it helps them understand the world and their social difficulties better. If the reader is neurotypical, I would imagine it's an interesting perspective on human behavior, almost like reading a report on human behavior written by an alien.

The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

• This book is like a mental reset to me. It uses the innocence of a child to break down silly and unhelpful social matters to remind us what's universally important.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams

• A fun science-fiction that, according to me, it's main appeal is the style of writing. The author tells the story in a unique way that makes me laugh because it kind of says things in a way we think but rarely share with each other.
