I like this book: "The Art of Thinking Clearly" by
Rolf Dobelli. It has some tips on how to avoid some of them.

I learnt about this (similar) topic about 4 years ago: Rolf Dobelli mentioned something in some section in his book "The Art of Thinking Clearly". It's not about the technology, but the same idea may be applied. Since then I have given up many "good" things.

That's a good book and I think you may learn something from it too.
