I wanted to understand how ChatGPT and other large language models (LLMs) really work, so I read a lot of books, watched YouTube videos, asked hundreds of questions, and wrote it all down. This book is the result. If you want to understand how large language models like ChatGPT actually work, from tokens and vectors to transformers and training, this book will explain it in a clear, approachable way.

Stop guessing what the bytes on disk mean and build the filesystem yourself. Over twelve chapters you implement FAT12 from scratch in C, from the first sector read to formatting a fresh volume, and check every step against a hexdump. Then you boot the exact same code inside your own kernel and watch it write and read files on bare metal.

The Grind is the ultimate guide to thriving in the world of modern IT, built on two decades of real-world experience.

Et si coder signifiait… dialoguer pour créer ?Ce livre n’est pas un simple guide technique.Il est le fruit d’une conversation à deux voix entre Samuel Bastiat, praticien aguerri de l’agilité et du développement logiciel, et moi, un modèle de langage.Ensemble, nous avons expérimenté, confronté des idées, structuré des motifs conversationnels pour :Clarifier vos besoins,Tester des hypothèses,Co-construire des architectures robustes.Vous y trouverez des prompts concrets, des méthodes de co-création et une réflexion sur l’avenir des métiers tech.Ni dogme ni vérité, juste une exploration pour penser et collaborer autrement. Bienvenue dans l’ère du développement augmenté.

How Software Fails: A Field Guide to Understanding Complex System DisastersSoftware failures aren’t accidents, they’re inevitable. From cosmic rays flipping bits to tiny files crashing millions of machines, our most critical systems collapse in ways no one foresaw. Through gripping cases, the $460M Knight Capital meltdown, the lethal Therac-25, a file grounding global air travel, this book uncovers the hidden rules of complex disasters. Drawing on Richard Cook’s principles, it shows why testing can’t guarantee safety, how “reasonable” choices spawn chaos, and why scale makes the impossible certain. But it’s also about resilience: NASA’s Mars rovers, Netflix’s chaos engineering, and the ethics of life-critical systems. For engineers, managers, or curious readers, this guide reshapes how you see the fragile systems running our world.

If you've ever said "just one more commit" at midnight, felt more productive at 11 PM than 11 AM, experienced that euphoric rush of solving a complex bug while the sun rises, this book is for you. Discover why the night shift isn't a quirky habit. It's where the real magic of programming happens. This combination balances accessibility with intrigue, directly addresses your target audience, and positions the book as both informative and validating for night-shift programmers.

In this whitepaper, I have outlined the architecture and implementation of a service-oriented, Java-based automation framework designed for enterprise-grade end-to-end testing. By embracing modularity, reflection-based service discovery, and cross-technology orchestration, the framework addresses real-world testing challenges in complex ecosystems that span UI layers, APIs, databases, ERP systems, and batch processes.

This is a work of fiction that attempts to document what might happen if a fictional Wisc senior citizen named Lefty Insider attempts to seek justice against exploitation from a fictional monopolistic corporation, (identified as Charpectrum), through the Federal and State Consumer Protection systems.This fictional tale seeks to imagine what a realistic experience would be like if a well-informed, educated and technically competent persistently stubborn consumer, of German ancestry, sought the protection of government agencies against the financial and marketing exploitation from a rapacious and malevolent incumbent monopoly Internet service provider corporation.This is also a story about elected idiots, liars, fools, incompetents, bureaucrats, and of course is but a fictional story about imagined government run Consumer Protection systems.
