it's actually a very outdated book. Saying this after a semester long experience. It's more of philosophy and talking in thin air rather than actual implementation and code.
Boomer AI was all about sitting hard all day dreaming about things they couldn't implement because of lack of resources.
If you're not looking for practical AI then it might be OK for you.

Its amazing how the dragon book remains so significant even after so many years.

Insanely good beginner's intro to computer engineering and architecture+some advanced programming.

If you don't know shit about computer engineering and want to learn about it, read this.

andrew ng is nice.
grokking deep learning by andrew trask.

thanks. Grokking algorithms was pretty good if not too entry level book, hope they will continue to make more of them

H&P is a better computer arch book.

What's the best compilers book for self learning? I hear the dragon book is mostly just for professors to pick and choose content to give to students over two semesters.

This is a great book. The ARM version even shows you how to develop a subset of cortex M synthesizable processor.

>Its amazing how the dragon book remains so significant even after so many years.
It really isn't that good anymore. A huge portion is dedicated to parsing which isn't a problem anymore. It's still significant because so many people had it for their compiler course and don't know anything else.

Unironically SICP. Chapter 4 covers interpreters and chapter 5 has you write a VM and a compiler targeting that VM. Most compiler books focus on parsing and generating assembly with a little bit on optimizations. None of this is relevant anymore because parser generators are much better and basically every compiler just targets C or LLVM. So the most realistic option is reading the LLVM tutorial: llvm.org/docs/tutorial/

If you want to be hardcore and output assembly you probably want to read bits of a variety of books. "Modern Compiler Implementation in [C, Java, Ml]" is pretty good, Dragon book probably has some decent bits. I've heard good things about "Engineering a Compiler", and if you want to do garbage collection look at "The Garbage Collection Handbook". Don't bother reading these cover-to-cover though. There's a lot of overlap between books and the parts on parsing aren't really relevant anymore. It's also worth noting that the sections on optimization probably aren't that useful anymore. Everyone is working with SSA form which doesn't get a ton of focus. Luckily a whole book was written about SSA: ssabook.gforge.inria.fr/latest/book.pdf

If you want to go full autist and output executables, that isn't too bad as long as you stick to a runtime assembler (i.e. don't parse assembly syntax, just have procedure calls). For that read Volume 2, chapter 2 of the Amd64 manual: intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/manuals/64-ia-32-architectures-software-developer-instruction-set-reference-manual-325383.pdf

Are you a prof?

I can't think of a technical CS book that has had more of an impact on popular culture than this one.
Without this book, the success of the Web would have been delayed by years, at the very least.

No, it was a decent thread until you brought your meme here.

elephant book?

It sucks, its okay for kids I guess.

I'm torn about this book
On one side I think its the only book that actually shows you how to construct a (semi non trivial circuit) processor in an HDL
on the other hand is very weak in certain topics like cache/memory/out of order execution and so on.
Feel like they could remove those chapters on C programming and Micro controllers and add tons of more shit about architecture.

This cover sums up perfectly everything that's wrong with CS field. It made me abandon programming forever and switch to EE.

Types and Programming Languages.

>on the other hand is very weak in certain topics like cache/memory/out of order execution and so on.
I guess if you properly grasp the fundamentals, jumping to more advanced topics like that aren't going to be quite as difficult.

>A huge portion is dedicated to parsing which isn't a problem anymore
but it really still is
NLP is still in its early stages and we need to make better parsers. No perfect parser exists in the world that could convert natural language to predicate logic and then to prolog code to draw inferences and meaning.

no, i was undergrad

The fuck are you on about? NLP has nothing to do with compilers. I guess you're a retard and took the comment out of context, but I very obviously meant parsing for compilers isn't hard anymore. Parser generators are much better than they were when most compiler books are written. Programming with natural languages is retarded, and NLP is shit.
I can't wait for the second AI winter to put all of these machine learning retards on the street.

>Programming with natural languages is retarded, and NLP is shit.
He's not talking about programming with natural languages you fucking idiot. NLP applies to AI (eg: a bot reading your dumb fucking posts and categorizing you as a moron).

calm down friend
Natural languages like english can be parsed into a context free grammar. The challenge here is that CFG for english doesn't have fixed production rules, people often break the rules of grammar yet we need to parse their shit. This is why we need better parsing algorithms which can parse dynamic production rules or even better, form its own production rules as per the input text. This all begins with parsing regular grammar followed by CFG which is very well explained in the dragon book.
Also, you suffer the disease of ignorance if you think NLP is not important.

Mims' books are better beginner material, but I will concede something more modern should take its place now that microcontrollers are so cheap.

I'm not too knowledgeable as a lot of people here but my first programming book was Automate the Boring Stuff With Python and I learned a lot from it. Next was C++ Primer and I really learned a lot from that one too
So those are my recommendations
