@profoundlynerdy@bitbang.social My recommendation would be RB Whitaker's "The C# Player's Guide" https://csharpplayersguide.com/

@profoundlynerdy@bitbang.social The C Programming Language 2e by Kernigan & Ritchie is pretty much the root source should be available in any tech. book store, Amazon, uni. book stores. After that C standards for specific changes and additions (PDFs found online). I've also been told of Beej's Guide to C.

@profoundlynerdy@bitbang.social Full disclosure, I think this is probably adjacent to the kind of thing you're looking for, but really good side material for someone trying to have one foot in systems programming and the other in embedded. https://en.algorithmica.org/hpc/

@profoundlynerdy@bitbang.social I have a copy of "21st Century C: C Tips From The New School" from Ben Klemens. It helped me understand linking so I could use libraries to make life suck less. It's more for general C programming and less embedded.

@profoundlynerdy@bitbang.social as for the Linux programming part, "Advanced Linux Programming" should still provide a good foundation of the Linux basics: https://sourcerytools.github.io/advancedlinuxprogramming/ , while @rlove@mastodon.social 's "Linux System Programming" requires some more familiarity with C already: https://rlove.org/
