Thanks for the heads up on the Ada book. I also share nickpsecurity ideas on memory safe systems programming. The last treasury I got, was getting an edition of "Systems Programming with Modula-3" in very good state.
on “Redox – A Unix-Like Operating System Written in Rust” ↗…Knuth too. And as I picked it down I noticed that, almost by coincidence, AoCP stood next to Wirth's PiM2. It wasn't intentional but it feels very right. There's a set of language books that end with Systems Programming with Modula 3, the Lua book. Thinking Forth, PiM2, then a gap, then the theory-ish section starts with five volumes of Knuth. Sigh.
