  2. The Sovereign Engineer
    AI Literacy for Software Professionals
    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.

  3. Build Your Own Coding Agent
    The Zero-Magic Guide to AI Agents in Pure Python
    J. Owen

    Skip the black-box frameworks. Build a production-grade AI coding agent from scratch in pure Python - cloud or local, tested with pytest, all in a single file.

  4. Emacs for Life
    Build It Yourself, Own It Forever
    Joel Bryan Juliano

    You tried Emacs. You quit. You're back. This time, you'll finish — with a keyboard-driven setup you built yourself, understand completely, and will use for life.

  5. CCIE SP v5.0
    Service Provider workbook
    Piotr Jablonski, Łukasz Bromirski, and Nicholas Russo

    Are you striving to prepare to and pass CCIE SP lab exam? Take the opportunity and get this workbook! With the attached initial cfg files you will prepare yourself for the CCIE SP exam as well as learn SP technologies applicable to all kinds of today modern networks! This workbook covers blueprint topics and provides challenging examples.

  6. The service provider landscape has changed rapidly over the past several years. Networking vendors are continuing to propose new standards, techniques, and procedures for overcoming new challenges while concurrently reducing costs and delivering new services. Cisco has recently updated the CCIE Service Provider track to reflect these changes; this book represents the author's personal journey in achieving that certification.

  7. C++26 Complete Guide
    The Complete Journey from Beginner to Professional Developer
    Steve Publications

    Start with no experience and build the skills to write modern C++ with confidence. From your first program to advanced C++26 features and professional software design, this guide explains every step with clear examples and practical insights. Learn it once, keep it as a reference for years.

  8. Agentic Programming
    From Prompts to Production: A Path to Al Fluency
    Jerod W. Wilkerson

    The most important impact of AI on software development isn't that it writes code faster — it's that it changes what you can delegate. Agentic Programming is a practical roadmap for climbing the AI Fluency Ladder: from prompting to agentic workflows, verified execution, and ultimately autonomous software development.

  9. Introduction to Zig
    a project-based book
    Pedro Faria

    An open, technical and introductory book for the Zig programming language, which is a new general-purpose and low-level programming language.

  10. Under The Hood
    Build Every Layer of a Large Language Model from Scratch
    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.

  11. System Design for the LLM Era
    Patterns and Principles for Production-Grade AI Architecture
    Sampriti Mitra

    STOP building fragile AI wrappers. START designing resilient AI systems. Lots of companies are trying to make their small AI experiments into big products, but they don't have a good plan. Engineers need a practical guide to build these new AI systems the right way - so they can handle scale, be reliable, and won't cost too much. This book is that guide. It explains how to design systems that use AI models. This book breaks down the architecture of real AI applications, like an AI-powered code editor or a smart learning app. It gives you a deep, practical look at the real-world challenges and solutions for building these systems. It discusses system design concepts for systems that use LLMs.

  12. Frontend System Design Essentials
    A practical guide to designing scalable, reliable, and maintainable frontend systems.
    Juntao Qiu

    A practical guide to designing scalable and maintainable frontends. Learn how to think beyond components, model data effectively, shape APIs around real access patterns, and apply modern techniques like pagination, caching, virtualization, and real-time updates.

  13. Jetpack Compose 메커니즘
    @Composable의 모든 작동 원리를 파헤치다.
    Jaewoong

    이 책은 컴포즈 컴파일러, 런타임, UI 레이어, 그리고 성능 튜닝에 이르기까지 컴포즈의 모든 것을 탐구합니다. Jetpack Compose의 내부 소스 코드를 한 줄 한 줄 읽어 내려가며 특정 설계가 왜 그렇게 결정되었는지 그 이면을 설명하고, 여러분이 매일 작성하는 코드를 내부 메커니즘과 연결해 줍니다. 이 책을 읽고 나면 컴파일러와 런타임, UI 계층의 동작 시스템이 머릿속에 완성될 것이고, 궁극적으로 여러분이 일상에서 작성하는 컴포즈 프로젝트의 성능을 크게 향상시킬 수 있습니다. 코스 (영문): Jetpack Compose Mechanisms | 하드커버 종이책 (영문) | ISBN-13: 9798185354780

  14. Why We Still Suck At Resilience
    Organizational Dynamics
    Adrian Hornsby

    Your organization does all the right things. They practice chaos engineering, GameDays, and load testing. They conduct incident reviews and operational readiness reviews. Yet the same types of incidents keep recurring. This book examines why resilience practices so often fail to build resilience, revealing the organizational dynamics that systematically transform learning mechanisms into compliance theater and what you can do to navigate them consciously.
