It looks like an excellent introduction to computer science, giving a good
overview and understanding of the field at all levels of abstraction. Plus,
it looks like a great deal of fun.
Are people on the list interested in taking the course? I think I could
teach it, particularly if others with experience at the 'space want to
pitch in.
For that matter, there's been talk on the list of fundraising
possibilities. Perhaps this could be one - we could open the course to the
public, and charge a moderate fee that gets donated to the hackspace.
Very interesting, thanks for passing it on…
I'm going to work my way through it so if there is interest then I would help teach it.

While several people replied that they were going to do the course
themselves, nobody expressed interest in an organized course - so I'm
afraid it'll have to be self study.

This project is something I've been considering for a while. I'd vey
much be interested in a focus group, as doing it in a group setting is
more likely to keep my attention.

I only skimmed the start of the book - I was initially trying to gauge whether my (14yr) son might get something from it. Oliver went through the first 5 chapters and ended up with a design for the CPU to run on the emulator but then got stuck at chapter 6 because of the programming required. So I directed him on a diversion to learn some Python and he has now written the assembler
What I was hoping for was for others who might be interested in having Oliver around for any discussions about this - and maybe who he might be able to pick up some coding tips from I would plan to be there with him even though I haven't got very deep into the book and I might even try to find some time to go through the book myself.
I'm not sure how any sort of meetup would work but I wanted to put out some feelers to see if there might be some interest
