This collection is targeted primarily to a demographic of 10 million college educated BabyBoomer aged men who are working in, or have worked in, the IT fields. The proposed goal ofthis manuscript is to reach one percent of this market, most of whom are disinclined to usesocial media, and find pdf files more accessible and readable than poorly formatted andweakly illustrated eBooks.

WARNING: The main goal of this book is to test Leanpub functionality, and all the information in this book can be found in my articles for the Interrupt by Memfault and PlatformIO blogs.So, there is no need to buy this book—you should only do so if you prefer reading information in book format or if you just want to buy me a coffee. :) This book is a collection of my articles originally published in the blogs Interrupt by Memfault and PlatformIO with some additional edits and enhancements.   A unique feature of this book is the extensive use of GIF animations and videos to visually demonstrate key concepts and processes. However, since not all EPUB readers support GIF and video playback, each animation and video is accompanied by a link to an external resource. Readers can follow these links to view the corresponding content and enhance their understanding. Repo with all GIF animation: https://github.com/Zamuhrishka/diving-into-jtag-book-animations

The book contains the full Software Diagnostics Services training transcript and ten step-by-step exercises. It covers dozens of crash dump analysis patterns from the x64 process and complete (physical) memory dumps. Learn how to analyze Rust application crashes and freezes, navigate through memory dump space, and diagnose heap corruption, memory leaks, CPU spikes, blocked threads, deadlocks, wait chains, and more with the WinDbg debugger. The training uses a unique and innovative pattern-oriented analysis approach focusing on safe and unsafe Rust code and its interfacing with the Windows OS. It is useful whether you come to Rust from C and C++ or interpreted languages like Python, and facilitates memory thinking when programming in Rust.

This book will help you build a comprehensive foundation in cybersecurity and prepare you to overcome the challenges of today's digital world.

In unethical software, not every line of code is written with good intentions. Unethical Software Engineering: Dark Patterns exposes how to manipulate users, drive profits, and evade accountability. From covert surveillance, monetization at all costs, digital fraud, ranking manipulation, all the way to unethical artificial intelligence practices, this scary book unveils how these "dark patterns" exploit human beings, erode trust, and disrupt digital ethics.Whether you're a developer, an architect, a tech enthusiast, or simply a concerned user, this book will change how you think about your daily apps — and inspire you to demand better. By helping you to draw the line between what is acceptable and what is questionable, Unethical Software Engineering: Dark Patterns shines a light on the digital dark side of software engineering where profits are prioritized over people.
