Review: Amazing book regarding low level programming and extracting power from hardware - This book really teaches beginners and opens eyes on some subjects for experienced developers. Branch prediction articles were most beneficial to me - many open eyes techniques - thank you! - and it makes you think, again ... Memory management - at least I got confirmation what is wrong and what is right :). Either way - book is fun to read - it is like "Dune" but for developers - intriguing, you wait for - what gonna happen next? with some light humor. I would recommend this book to any level of serious software developers/engineers. This book deserves 5 stars. -- this review form 30+ years experience C++ software developer, and counting
Review: Fabulous book, it connects what you learned in school to real life situations - Fabulous book, it connects what you learned in school to real life situations. Even after years in the industry, unless you are on the forefront of performance optimization many of these knowledge are gonna help you. In theory I have learned all these in school but school knowledge here has not connect with industry experiences and this book did it.

Fabulous book, it connects what you learned in school to real life situations. Even after years in the industry, unless you are on the forefront of performance optimization many of these knowledge are gonna help you. In theory I have learned all these in school but school knowledge here has not connect with industry experiences and this book did it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good content
*by D***I on May 12, 2024*

The book's layout is poorly designed. For example, there's an unnecessary gray background in the source code sections, which could have been improved by highlighting only the important parts with a gray background and using bold for keywords. While the content of the book is quite good and interesting to read, the layout is frustrating.
