I would say Unsong is a lot more theology and theodicy than computer science. (if it can be said to be about computer sciience at all.)

It is an excellent and hilarious read nonetheless. One of the best web serials I have read.

I'd say it's as much about the programming industry as the other books mentioned on this page. It's certainly not hard science and no one here will learn anything new about computer science from it.
It certainly does poke a lot of fun at big tech.

It also helps that I think out of all of the reads mentioned on this comment thread so far, Unsong is definitely my favourite of the lot.
