New Humble Bundle is up, and it's for:

Humble Book Bundle Hacks presented by O'Reilly containing a selection of the popular tech publisher's guides to DIY computer and hardware tools and tips.

There's stuff for programming, and cars, and understanding statistics and analysis via baseball, and astronomy, and many other things. This is an auto-buy for me, as O'Reilly is one of my favourite publishers whom I'd like to support as I've benefited greatly from my library's having a subscription to their Safari Online service for reading their back-catalogue, and getting my own copies of several titles I'm actually interested in is an extra bargain, to boot. I hope they offer more bundles in the future as well.

Fixed tiers of $1, $8, and $15 (no new titles added next week).

Quote:
Can you hack it? Hack, noun: a short dry cough; a rough or irregular cutting stroke; a usually creative solution to a computer hardware or programming problem or limitation. Well, O'Reilly is back at Humble, and they brought a whole library of creative solutions! Cough sold separately.

Pay $1 or more for Perl Hacks, BSD Hacks, Mind Hacks, Gaming Hacks, and Kinect Hacks.

Pay $8 or more and you’ll also get Baseball Hacks, Car PC Hacks, IRC Hacks, Astronomy Hacks, Raspberry Pi Hacks, Statistics Hacks, and Home Theater Hacks.

Pay $15 or more for all of that plus HTML5 Hacks, Excel Hacks 2ed, Retro Gaming Hacks, and SQL Hacks.
Last week's Humble Comics Bundle Tank Girl presented by Titan, starring the iconic post-apocalyptic British comics character (basis of the eponymous film) is still available.

StoryBundle has a new offer for The Hero-Up Middle Grade Bundle, containing tween/YA titles from small publisher Curiosity Quills, across multiple genres from mundane to fantastical.

$5 minimum for 5 titles, $15 top-tier adds 6 more.

Their previous Sci-Fi Adventure Bundle full of curated indie titles, with 2 freebies for newsletter subscribers, is still available for another week.

Bundle of Holding's new RPG gamebook offering is for Fading Suns, a science fiction game set in a far-future interstellar empire, out from Holistic Designs. Last week's Hunter: the Vigil campaign for White Wolf's Chronicles of Darkness horror setting is still available as well.
