Good morning,
I want to deepen my knowledge about computing, but I don't know where to start.
I program in C (not professionally), and my knowledge of C is self-taught.
But I want to deepen my knowledge about how a programming language works, i.e., how a compiler works (specially the compilers of C).
I want to be able to comprehend, in general, how a computer (the software part) works.
Where should I start and how should I proceed?
Thank you in advance.
Research the kernel, and lean assembly.
I don't see why people think Chuck Norris is so awesome. If he was really as great as they say, he would be over here slamming my head into the keybsk;lah;flksalfksdnlcslcnsldk;acklsd;glfbaskfl

Learn a different operating system (eg. Linux or BSD) if you haven't already.
It would give you much broader perspective, whether you decide to continue using it or not.
That's why most computer science / engineering curriculum require students to learn a different OS (often Linux or UNIX), even though 90% of them will probably never use them after they graduate.
