HN comment orderEvery time I start to fall into the conceit that I'm an exceptionally good developer, I look at things like kernels or low level hardware programming and eat a big ol' slice of humble pie.
I am only at the first page, but already I must recommend this work https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/ as unmissable, and "I should have read this as a child" - that is, for those who feel a lack of solid ground until they know exactly what makes the machine work.
