Any tech books you recommend, /g/? I've read "But How Do It Know?" by John Scott, which is really good at explaining the hardware part of the computer. Now I'm looking for a book that explains the software part, maybe the operating system or some slick algorithms. I thought about pic-related, but it looks pretty intimidating. Any ideas?

I have CLRS. Used it for 2 courses at my uni. It's a good book, but not very easy. Should mostly be understandable for undergrad level CS, although some parts go way deeper and require graduate level understanding.
It's basically the algorithms bible though so you can't really go wrong with it if you're into that.

It's literally an undergraduate CS book. You're CS program a shit.

Check this: https://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/~exr/lectures/opsys/10_11/lectures/os-dev.pdf It basically explains how an OS works and guides you into making a simple one too, by yourself.

I used Computer Architecture: A Quantitative approach for a class. Good book if you want to learn about processor architectures. Both Hennessy and Patterson have a pretty solid background with Hennessy having a hand in the creation of MIPS.
