I'm a systems engineer by profession. I've built databases and distributed systems. Now I pass that knowledge on

My goal is to make you see the computer as something much more interesting than a magical black box. To understand the details of the machine. This allows a developer write nicer, faster, more compact software.

Most of my advantage comes from a fundamental understanding of computers — all the way from the chip design, to the OS, to the modern applications. This allows me to understand things much more quickly than most people. That's what I'd like to impart.
