Why are people interested in systems? Fundamentally, it is usually because they appreciate and value understanding how the technology around us works. If you don’t know much about systems, but they are vaguely interesting to you, it is hard to figure out how to “dive in”. As with anything that requires some technical mastery, there is a lot of learning to be done, but you want to find a reasonable entry point.
This post is essentially a list of entry points. You’ll likely stumble around a few of things, understand a thing or two, and not really understand most of it. At first. You’ll find that, over time, you’ll understand more and more.
The Systems Hacking Club is there to bridge the gap. When you find something that seems interesting, and you want to learn more, just ask! Use #slack, use the meeting, and talk to other club members. You’ll be amazed how quickly you will accelerate if you put in the time and are aggressive about learning.
