Gautam - I started reading this book at the beginning of the year, but life got in the way and I dropped it since then. Though, last night I found myself with some time and picked it back up and read two chapters, "Bytes and Hex" and "An Assemblage of Memory" (yes, I have the first edition).

My email is in my profile. Feel free to shoot me an email if you'd like to discuss the material. I am planning on reading "The Elements of Computing Systems" next, a.k.a. nand2tetris - so I think it'd definitely be interesting to have someone to talk about these books to.

I recently started a Discord server with this purpose in mind -study CS books- we are currently reading another one of HN's favorites, Algorithms by Sedgewick. Though, we could definitely create a new section on the server to discuss more computer arch-y books and whatnot.

I hope you are able to join us! :)

We will iron out those details once we know who is starting for sure, what time commitment everyone is comfortable with is, time zones, etc. I honestly rather go a bit slower than a bit faster and burn out.

Consider shooting me an email and we can talk a bit more about it. :)

Thank you! Will take a look.

Yes, this is legit. It is just a new account. I am a bit befuddled, what do you think a scammer could achieve by faking a post like this one? Besides wasting his time and other people's. Just curious.

Anyway, shoot me an email if you are interested. It is kind of hard to put these things together and the fact that I've seen some interest from the community makes me very optimistic. Come join us!

A little bit of both, although, I think we've settled on "Algorithms" by Sedgewick. Thanks for the recommendation though!

If it helps, the book uses a "subset" of Java that is introduced in the first section of the book. You don't really need to be familiar with the language, though, you do need a programming background.
