I want to understand everything about computers, give me some suggestions

I'm in my second year of studying mecathronics at uni and recently I've gotten really interested in everything about electricity, computers and all of these mind boggling things work in our world.

I understand most basic ideas about electricity, how it makes things work and all of that, but I'm pretty sure we all know how complex computers and processors are. I've started watching a YouTube series called "crash course: computer science" and it's really helped me understand transistors, logic gates, CPUs, memory and so on. Plus whatever research I managed to do on the internet regarding these topics.

Now, I wanted to ask if you guys have any suggestions of books, sites, papers or anything to help me understand more about these things. I'm pretty much trying to learn what you would be taught in CS university, but of course not all of the formulas and theory. More like, the logic behind how it all works.

It's just what, everything is so new to me and there are so many topics I haven't even heard abour, that I don't exactly know where to start and where to research things about CS.

Alzheimer's may be able to spread to organ transplant patients. When researchers transplanted bone marrow stem cells from mice carrying a hereditary version of Alzheimer’s disease into normal lab mice, the recipients developed Alzheimer’s disease—and at an accelerated rate.

When climate change mitigation policies are bundled with social justice policies (to appeal to liberals) or with deregulation policies (to appeal to conservatives), popular support for the policy declines. To further a political cause, it is unwise to bundle it with a less popular cause.

New Causal ML book (free! online!)

Several big names at the intersection of ML and Causal inference, Victor Chernozhukov, Christian Hansen, Nathan Kallus, Martin Spindler, and Vasilis Syrgkanis have put out a new book (free and online) on using ML for causal inference. As you'd expect from the authors, there's a heavy emphasis on Double ML, but it seems like it covers a breadth of material. The best part? There's code in both Python and R.
