Sounds cool!
Mildly related: I found "Nand To Tetris: The Elements of Computing Systems" to be an amazing, bottom-up, hands-on approach for learning about the fundamental layers of computer architecture, from hardware to assembly to OSs.
- chucksmash 9y agoA wonderful complement (albeit with significant overlap) is Charles Petzold's Code. It's written as prose so doesn't include exercises but the book is infused throughout with the mastery attained by its author. His synthesis of different ideas and the historical context he provides give a very nice perspective on computing. While nand2tetris makes for a good textbook to work through, Code makes for a better subway read.
