A List of My Favorite Readings on Distributed Systems

Inspired by this wonderful list on Distributed Systems readings and nostalgic about my completed now Master, I decided to put together my own list of my favorite readings, slides, videos, opinions and misc things I came across during the past 2 years.

I am certainly missing a lot of classics, but this is not supposed to be a top-x readings list. Some of it is not even directly DS-related. This is a list of things that I personally found interesting, inpiring and motivating :-)
