Best Computer architecture & CPUs Videos
「Computer architecture & CPUs」下面有148部被不同的人、在不同月份推荐过的视频。挑的时候先看对象:入门8部,适合还没学过的人;进阶60部,适合已经懂术语的人;普通向45部,按兴趣就能看;更硬的35部,留给想看推导或细节的人。这一类数量最多的是演讲,所以它们的共同点是一位讲者把一个判断讲完,例子是为了撑住这个判断。常出现的频道包括Linus Tech Tips、Ben Eater、Gamers Nexus。目录给这个主题划的范围是:Computer architecture: CPU design, pipelines, caches, RISC-V, ARM, x86, GPUs, memory, branch prediction, supercomputers, mainframes, benchmarks, Moore's law.如果只看三部,就从《8-bit computer update》开始,它负责把问题讲出画面;然后看《Light Years Ahead | The 1969 Apollo Guidance Computer》,换一种讲法或例子;最后看《“Hello, world” from scratch on a 6502 — Part 1》,留给已经有基础的人。页面按每页24部切开,顺序看的是被推荐跨越了多少个月,不是播放量。每条标题下面那一句是这部片子自己的内容说明,用来区分它在讲定义、过程、演示还是观点。点进去能看到推荐原话、原文链接和适合谁看。看的时候把强烈推荐当成有人明确叫你去看,把引用当成只是拿来举例,把批评留下来对照,不要把每条评论都当成同一力度。
