Ask HN: Any Good Books on Internals?
I just finished 3 books about internals and I really enjoyed them:
- Ruby Under a Microscope
- Database internals
- Writing An Interpreter In Go
Are there any other good books on internals of any technology out there? I don't mind if it's a language or a tool. I just think it's pretty interesting to understand things at a deeper level.
Thanks.
- jmnicolas 6y agoI immediately thought about "Windows Internals" which has a good reputation but won't be useful if you're running MacOS or Linux.
- diehunde 6y agoStill, it sounds interesting. I'm more interested in learning about the theory right now.
- jmnicolas 6y agoMay I suggest "The Art of Computer Programming" by Donald E. Knuth then ? This is considered as the Graal of computer science (I didn't study it but it's on my to-do list though ).
