Just bought the bundle - grokking system design and grokking ADVANCED system design
Bundle costs $134 on https://www.designgurus.org. Will post my review soon. I'm especially interested in the ADVANCED one. Already read DDIA. Targeting e6/L6 tc:400k
What is your current level OP?
66. Last few years have been in a different kind of work that doesn’t involve large scale systems.
Nice. Good luck OP.
Damn OP you are invincible now
Lmao don't troll him. He is sharing the reviews for free.
How was DDIA? is it better time value to focus on Grokking instead?
DDIA if you want to give a TED talk. If it's an interview, go for grokking.
DDIA is good for solidifying fundamentals. But there’s no need to read the whole book. Chapters 1,3,5,6,8,9 are more than enough. One caveat: chapter 9 doesn’t do a good job on explaining consensus. If you’re short of time chapters 5,6 are the heart and most important.
Should have just gotten the Systems design interview book by Alex Xu for $25
Yeah but it isn't worth much for L6+.
Good investment. I’ve heard good things about Grokking courses.
Good luck.
Thx
