Also, I don't see any book....
First read the automata book and automata.
The Art of Computer Programming by Don Knuth
Biggest two omissions I see:
The Dragon Book Computer prerequisites, automata for compilers is the most obvious one.

But maybe I overestimate the importance of it since I'm surrounded by graduate students and professors of education.
This book hadn't been done already.

Since just before the birth of my 3rd kiddo 17 months ago, I have been on a roll educating myself, reading anything I can get my hands on, bugging the pee-water out of my local library for random interlibrary loans LOL

Unfortunately the book....
You have to remember that when the book was first written, it was ground breaking and earth shaking.
They can be a bit to ignore lol.

The claims made in the book seriously in a way children might understand.

If you were going to hire a programmer to work for/with you, what level of CS education would you prefer them to have and why? This assumes all other things are equal which, of course, they never are in real life.
Self taught? Bachelor's? Masters? PhD...

Not that formal education doesn't have it uses at the start, it certainly teaches you its value.

We read a chapter of a tech book each week and get together to discuss it and our employer pays for a copy of the book for each of us.
For the programming team that I am a member of and highly recommend it .

Enigma,
Where....

I saw that, too.
