I'm interested in that simulator, it sounds fun!
I started reading 'But How Do It Know' a while back; I never finished it but I can say that it was a very fun read.
I've heard that 'From Nand to Tetris' [0] is also quite a worthwhile read. A quick look shows that it not only has a link to a book [1] but also some freely available notes/lectures as well as some exercises.

- jlevers 7y agoI'm partway through Nand to Tetris right now, and I'm really enjoying it! It's taking me quite a while, as I'm doing it in C (which I have no experience with) as a way to start making my way towards embedded programming, but it's a really rewarding course.
