As someone with a working understanding of this I want to say this is possibly the best explanation of sram I've seen on youtube. Excellent work. Can't wait for your next one.

[dakata]

Bro is trying to become YouTubes best computer science channel.

[andrewclarke]

I've never actually understood how this type of circut works until now, despite a couple attempts. This explanation was very clear. Top quality.

[Imaginary_One]

You just blew my mind by showing how bytes of memory are accessed by addressing eight matrices of registers simultaneously. This channel is quickly revealing itself to be far and away the most detailed and explanatory computer engineering resource on youtube.

[guilec]

"this is starting to get very complicated" well yes because that's abstraction over and over again, but it's still very easy to understand becuase you're explaining it very well ! I am learning a lot of stuff thanks to you :3

[ako]

You inspire me to build my own CPU. Hope you keep them coming.

[xOWSLA]

I love how your videos like episodes of a TV show, you have to watch them one by one to understand the context in the last video. Everything is so well explained. I wish I had these videos in the beginning of my University journey. Amazing.

[tranpaul]

YES, more OS and low-level content please. These concepts are really important for any competent technologist.
Also, what books or other resources you recommend for me to deep dive into these topics? It seem there are a lot and highly complex.

[cazvlad]

Incredible explanations! Complex but boiled down so well to the basics

[angelrxn]

From the bottom to the top!

Many people don't understand what they're doing when they program or when they repair computers, but with these kinds of explanations, they get it. It clicks.

That's what happened to me.

Before understanding (not learning) more and more Python, I needed to learn C or C++; BUT before understanding those languages, I needed to go down to the realm of the Assembly language; BUT then I needed to go even further down to your video, to find out how memory works among other things...

to actually go up again, to rise up, to climb the ladder to proper understanding of how computers work and how everything is connected and mapped out...

Holistically connected and mapped out, visually represented, clear!

Ty!

[Themaker-studio]

youre amazing you explain this to me (a stupid jock) and i understand it. I had been confused when my teacher taught this to me. your 16 mins is worth more than 4 hours of my teacher.

[solvm]

Respect just for the animation and design of the graphics! Tons of work goes into this! I see YOU!

[Maddy.lotus]

After lots of videos to understand transistors working in computers, finally I understood clearly, thank you so much Villalta

[fobusas]

I never knew that bits were not stored sequentially! So many concepts are abstracted away in computer science, that it makes learning and understanding harder. I only recently learned about the existence of standard cell too.

[associatedixon]

Thank you so much for this. I'm a self-taught network engineer and I've been having trouble understanding the logic gate pattern for memory for a bit and your animations and explanations felt like the concept was injected into my brain.

[voidley]

Bro you genuinely have a gift for teaching concepts to people. The way you explain things makes it super easy to follow along, but I still feel like I'm the one making the jumps in understanding to reach the next level of abstraction. Some very similar explanations are over on Sebastian Lague's "Exploring how computers work, " but I think his videos are a little more focused on application rather than understanding the fundamentals (both of which are super important by the way, I still love all of Sebastian Lague's videos). Either way, I just wanted to say thank you and tell you to keep doing what you're doing!

[ED-yyrl]

13:50 Nope! You did not go too far. It was perfect. Made how it all worked together so clear! I’ve been searching for a long time how we get from gates to memory address and how it all interconnects and your channel does it so good! Keep up the good work

[sreeraghuvardhanvangipuram]

I always thought of RAM as a contigous block of memory and wondered how it was possible to access indices so fast. This video cleared my misconception about RAM and i'm genuinely stoked by the underlying structure. Content Level 💯

[beqabeqa]

This is the only channel I check for new video uploads. I'd love to see your video about the garbage collector and such programming language related stuff, but I understand how hard it is to make such videos, so I'll wait patiently lol
