08456ba471 More realistic estimate for OS course
Hi,

I am currently taking this course and I am about half way into it. I already have a CS degree and I've been working as a developer for ~8 years.

The course is very interesting and comprehensive.
If you want to do this course properly, I think 6 hours per week for this course is bare minimum:
- There are ~3 hours of lectures each week
- The original course is split into 14 weeks
- Each chapter has homework at the end of it
- Homeworks are not very difficult, but some of them require significant amount of work
- Projects require significant amount of work

835c2c101d Update books' editions
* Updated the links for books that have a newer edition. I have included the authors' home page for the book where possible.
* Updated some titles to reflect the linked edition. I have maintained the original format (``2e`` for the books in the ``Programming`` section ``(2nd Edition)`` for the books in the other sections). Unifying the format could be something to consider.

Remove direct link to issues
We often get issues opened that are empty, with no text or description of a problem. This may be because learners follow the link from the Community section, and post in order to interact. By removing the link (but keeping the link to the contributing instructions) we can hopefully direct new learners in how to interact productively.
