i have posted here a few times for advice about careers in programming. i have experience programming and currently use matlab (starting to dabble in perl) for my job. my background is more math and i understand how to write code - the logic part of it is almost like doing a math proof.
but i lack experience/understanding of some low level aspects of computers and operating systems. whenever i want to do something at a low level i have to research on the internet so i feel like i get a very limited understanding of something - not a big picture. can anyone recommend a book or a website where i could learn this stuff? i am interested in macs as well as windows. i just don't know where to start looking.
thanks -
