Autistic Trans Coding Journey

Assembly Arithmetic Algorithms-DOS by Chastity White Rose

Low level is a term that confuses people. People think something high level is better than low level. In simple terms, humans consider themselves superior to machines and therefore think themselves higher or more important because of their abstract though. A computer thinks only in terms of numbers. A computer may not understand "high level" abstractions such as love, religion, philosophy, etc, but that is not its job. A computer must add, subtract, multiply, and divide. These are the four arithmetic functions which many human struggle to do. I wrote this book because I think like a machine and I hope to help others think this way because it is the best way to learn programming and control your computer by writing Assembly Language programs or to go back to your favorite programming language with a greater understanding of why things work as they do.

AI Research | Making the Future Boring, Dependable, and Real

Under The Hood by Ramchand Kumaresan

Bestselling book on building LLMs. A practical, project-driven manual for engineers who want to understand how modern language models are built — and where they fail — by writing every layer themselves. From a scalar autograd engine to RLHF to fused specialists, in 36 hands-on projects with deliberate sabotage experiments. Build it. Break it. Measure it.

What is a Craft Engineer | Predicting & Fixing Product Risks

The Agentic AI book by Dr. Ryan Rad

It's never been easier to build an AI agent — and never been harder to make one that actually works. This book takes you from language model foundations to production-ready multi-agent systems with the depth to predict failure before it happens, engineer graceful degradation over catastrophic failure, and take absolute architectural ownership. Get the paperback from amazon.

Smart People Doing Stupid Things with AI

The Sovereign Engineer by Russ Miles

AI is an amplifier. It magnifies whatever engineering discipline — or lack of it — already exists, which means the bottleneck was never AI's capability; it is the collaboration space you design around it. This book is a six-level progression from early AI panic to sovereign engineering: the discipline of designing the environment in which human and artificial intelligence produce work worth keeping. It moves past prompting into the practices that compound — verification, habitat engineering, specification-first development, and the platform discipline that scales the practice across teams. The habitat is yours to design. Let's build it well.
