  5. Rules of thumb for well written #CS #textbooks:

    • Cryptography—not one word should be in plaintext
    • Compression—the whole book should be less than one page in length
    • Compilers—should be printed in an executable binary format, like COFF, ELF, etc.
    • Graphics—should contain only images, no text
    • Networks—the reader should be required to ACK, for every 1500-letter MTU
    • Operating Systems—the entire book should be demand paged

Another textbook on #compilers by a professor who thinks his office hours are the highlight of your week. 🤓 Thrill at the chance to join a mailing list for "exciting" updates while pretending to care about yet another deep dive into #syntax #trees and code translation—because who wouldn't want to spend their free time with #academic PDFs? 📚🙄
