I just read the first chapter and it reads very very nice! Wish I had that back in Uni haha. Well done, keep on going! Computers are indeed simple and complicated at the same time.

/e: this was also a trip down memory lane to my time at Uni and why I fell in love with compsci. It's so inherently beautiful and clever, every teeny tiny bit of it.

I also had a great book when starting out: "Einführung in die Informatik" from Gumm/Sommer (my professors), written in German. They explain round about everything on a basic level in round about 900 pages. Think about how far we've come in the last 15 years, wow! I feel very sentimental now haha
