Is it getting harder these days to come up with new similar ideas, maybe due to legal pressures?

Excellent list, thank you!

Can the Stanford compiler course be self-taught given the online material? What's missing?

I've seen it available on Coursera. And a lot of the current material is available online. But I tried the Coursera one awhile ago and got stuck.

I'm finishing a CS degree but there's no dedicated compiler course here.

I like Peter Thiel's quote: A-B testing only works if you have a billion years (from Darwin)

Is linear algebra useful to learn for distributed systems?

I'm taking graph theory next semester and wondering what else might be useful. I took a distributed systems course already and we used no math at all.

These are great. I wonder why he didn't just handwrite the notes. These are much better, but they seem like they would take a long time unless you can type latex quickly.

What kind of math is involved in building a faster database? Genuinely curious. I would guess maybe linear algebra, indirectly.

Thanks, I'm doing a Masters now and I was planning on taking Number Theory and Abstract Algebra next term. I took mathematical cryptography this term and it got me interested in more related math.

Best courses for mathematical maturity besides the standard CS ones? I'm thinking Algebra, or maybe Real Analysis.
