I've been looking for CS 161 but it doesn't look like it's available unfortunately.

- CalChris 10y agoAgain, the course notes (Wagner's for the most part) are really excellent. http://www-inst.cs.berkeley.edu/~cs161/sp16/ http://www-inst.cs.berkeley.edu/~cs161/sp16/ The slides are really excellent. You will miss the opportunity of Weaver frothing at the mouth and using expletives willy nilly. Popa is clearly smart but needs to turn her mic up. This is a great course. Unless Kubi is teaching 162, anyone should sub 161 for 162. And suffer. Berkeley has a murderers row of good security people. Song, Weaver, Wagner, Popa, .... If Song teaches 261 again, I'm gonna sit in.
- sbuccini 10y agoYou didn't even mention Paxson and Shenker, who are big in ICSI as well. However, 161 is substantially easier than 162 doing the substitution you recommend should reduce suffering.
- CalChris 10y agoI thought 162 was easy but then I knew a shit ton going in. My GSIs did not like me. No, they didn't. I sat in on 161 since I live in the area. Some of it is a repeat of 70 material. I just think it's a great course. I'd been a reader for 61C (another great course) and I'd suggested adding a stack smashing lab. This was before Wagner created 161 and they were ummm hesitant to teach undergrads the dark arts.
