Stem pioneers who also wrote about Philosophy and meaning of life?
Any recommendations of books, articles, or papers, written by prominent people in the computer science, math, physics, etc fields that are more Philosophical in nature? Things like reflecting on the progress of technology or the meaning of life.
I feel Richard W. Hamming fits this definition. You can find recorded lectures on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1zDuOPkMSw) or books such as 'The Art of Doing Science and Engineering'. The phrase 'the progress of technology' has many meanings and the focus of the lecture/book might or might not be what you have in mind, but I bet you will find his work interesting.
