Wow. CS 3210 is in Rust now? That course contributed significantly to me getting my first real job. Back then we wrote Linux kernel modules.

- jcranmer 7y agoI'll also have to say that the course labs look far more interesting than they were a decade ago. Implementing a new linux syscall to readtsc isn't particularly exciting...
- ethbro 7y agoCS 3210 & 6210 were my favorite undergrad courses. Incredibly frustrating, but I learned more general concepts in each semester than in anything else. I still remember trying to decide between 6210 and another elective. I asked Bill Leahy, who in typically efficiency replied, "Well, Tom Conte has a Porsche and a Ferrari." I figured that was a fair criteria in deciding who to learn from.
- Cyph0n 7y agoTom Conte’s graduate computer architecture course was a ton of fun and a lot of work!
- kediz 7y agoActually all the professors in COC can afford them because they got paid very well(Full professors in COC has 200k+)
- dboon 7y agoBill Leahy and Tom Conte are god damn treasures to this world. I love them both.
- cepp 7y agoI'm really impressed. When I took the course ~1.5 years ago it was still cribbing heavily from MIT OCW's OS course. Really nice to see the curriculum has changed (and more importantly been reduced)!
- nv-vn 7y agoTo be fair it seems like it's mostly doing the same still, just with Stanford's material instead :P
