macOS powers millions of devices, but few developers ever explore what lies beneath its polished interface. Inside macOS explains how the XNU kernel, Mach, BSD, Apple Silicon, APFS, and modern security technologies work together, giving systems programmers, security researchers, and engineers a deep understanding of Apple's operating system.
You shipped the demo. The model worked. Now production is coming, and the demo is not a system. An agentic system is a distributed-systems engineering problem — the reliability lives in the shell, not the model.
Modern software architecture is about making the right design decisions for systems that must scale, adapt, and remain reliable. Advanced Software Architecture explores the patterns, principles, and real-world practices behind cloud-native systems, helping experienced developers and architects build resilient solutions with confidence.
LLMs are too big for single GPUs, but quantization fixes that. This book cuts through the hype to show you how to actually compress models using GPTQ, AWQ, GGUF, and NF4 without losing quality. You get real benchmarks, working code, and a clear way to pick the right tool for your hardware. Stop guessing and start deploying efficient models today.
