Re:The Computer Science Book (2020)

I did a joint major in math and computer science for undergrad so I missed out on a lot of subjects like computer architecture, operating systems, and compilers.
This looks like the perfect depth for me to get up to speed at a relaxed pace over a few months: simpler than a textbook but more robust and instructive than blog posts, Wikipedia etc.
A few cents:
- not sure if it's already nestled in some chapters, but cryptography is the most important missing topic imo
- if there ends up being a print copy I would happily purchase it
- the name makes it hard to find: a google search for "computer science book" doesn't have a first page result

From the article
"The plants would convert the raw fusion energy into heat, then use the heat to boil water, spin a turbine, and ultimately to generate electricity that can light your home and charge your phone."

Very cool. Can I ask what your use case is, or if it's just for fun?

Thanks!
Right now for my sake the search selection is very small, I only chose books from gutenberg.org that have covers, Paul Clifford doesn't
