A great format to pick up a ton of bonus knowledge that would be very difficult to pick up otherwise. Lets you dive into very granular stuff, like the OSDev wiki, but he guides you through navigating it so you can return on your own later, capable enough to help yourself.
Excellent course
Great so far. I have been getting the answer to my long wonders about OS. On the other hand, I think it'll be more interactive if challenges/home work are a part of the course.
The course does a good job of walking you through technical documentation and helping you understand what you’re reading. The actual coding and learning process isn’t great though. Purely following along by video doesn’t do much for retention. Videos are nice for explanation of things like technical documentation, but there needs to be an actual course structure in place
Very thorough explanation
Really liked the course, I needed this to get to know the basics for compiler development, thanks!
