About the book, here's the full story: I was getting into compilers, but I was really struggling with the theory, the most famous books weren't doing it for me, and I felt really down. Then I find this book, which seems very dense, but clear. So I ask my advisor if I could buy it and goes like "well, first check out the university library". I check it out and there's a copy, but... it's taken. Working in the only group that was doing research on compilers I'm like "who dares do compilers stuff out of our group!?". I go to the library: Me: who has the book? Library guy: can't tell you, privacy reasons. Me: what's the third letter of its surname? Library guy: Z Me: what's the second letter of its name? Library: I Me: thanks. I go here: https://www.deib.polimi.it/ita/personale-lista-alfabetica https://www.deib.polimi.it/ita/personale-lista-alfabetica I found him. Fast forward, we become friends and we start the company together. > Congrats on the launch. Thanks! It was a lot of work.
