It seems you've already decided that these are worth reading, but in case you want some motivation, I had CS:APP as my textbook last term and I thought it was quite nice. I also worked through TECS several years ago and it was also a g

I don't intend to derail the discussion further, but I'm curious about Virgil. I can't find any information on it that tells me who is behind it or how to contact them. Do you have anywhere I could look to learn more about th

Would you have any interest in providing someone (I would volunteer) the videos so that they can package them in smaller, topic-specific pieces for easier consumption? I don't know anything about editing videos, but if your writings an

Although it's been posted here (only twice, though!) before, Philip Guo put up a 10-hour series of lectures on CPython internals[0]. I am nearly done with them, and have found them very useful and well-paced. Posting here because the a

This seems a bit harsh. From the article, "I’m going to keep talking about the Apple font, because that’s the code path I worked on in Chrome..." Although this is toward the end of the article, it does give a good reason for why t

Hm, after re-reading a couple times, I think I merely misinterpreted how you said "OCaml supports parametric polymorphism" and "Haskell supports ad-hoc polymorphism." Based on your wording I thought you were saying that

This is incorrect. Haskell and OCaml both support parametric polymorphism, but Haskell also supports ad-hoc polymorphism, whereas OCaml does not. Modular implicits, it seems, are OCaml's solution to the problem of reducing the set of v

I haven't used DrRacket for anything of any reasonable size, but I actually think it does pretty well. I was just asking some people on #racket about if DrRacket suites their needs for a development environment. I think it's inte
