I also wanted to say HPMoR :) if you want to start, I'd suggest listening to the excellent podcast: http://www.hpmorpodcast.com - the first 10 episodes are slightly amateurish, but after that it's really, really well done.
I would say HPMoR is like Gödel Escher Bach, but slightly simpler and more approachable, and looks at stuff from a different angle. And Eliezer is an excellent writer, just like D. Hofstadter -- and his style is even more fun!
If you're on HN, then you'll enjoy this book immensely.
