  1. Vibe Coding with OpenCode: From Beginner to Pro
    Vibe Coding with OpenCode: From Beginner to Pro
    Build Real Apps with AI Coding Agent
    Kristian Reformis

    You can generate code faster than you can review it. That asymmetry is the real challenge of AI-assisted development — and almost nobody talks about it. Vibe Coding with OpenCode teaches the other half of the skill: not how to make AI write code, but how to make AI write code you can actually trust.

  2. MATLAB® R2026a in Practice
    MATLAB® R2026a in Practice
    A Project-Based Guide to Programming, Data Analysis, Visualization, AI-Assisted Workflows, and Engineering Computing
    Julian Wu

    Go from your first MATLAB script to professional engineering projects. Master programming, data analysis, visualization, numerical computing, and AI-assisted workflows through practical, project-based learning.

  3. Vibe Coding Stepping Stones
    Vibe Coding Stepping Stones
    From Zero Code to Your Own Data Page Online in 3 Days
    Jay Jung Lim

    A 3-day path for people who want to code with AI but get stuck before the first line: Python basics in the browser, then a real setup on your own computer, then a page with a data table published on GitHub Pages. No memorizing. You learn to read, run, and check the code the AI writes.

  4. Learn Java Data Structures & Algorithms Visually - Volume 1
    Learn Java Data Structures & Algorithms Visually - Volume 1
    Trees, Linked Lists, Strings & Arrays for AI-Era Interviews
    Flannan P. Brody

    Plain-language explanations, Java implementations, and step-by-step visual walkthroughs help you connect the problem, the code, and the changing state of the data. Every algorithm is printed in full color, so rows, columns, regions, and changing values stand apart at a glance and are easy to trace. 

  5. Modern Compiler Engineering: From Source Code to Machine Code
    Modern Compiler Engineering: From Source Code to Machine Code
    Designing and Implementing a Production Compiler with Rust
    Steve Publications

    Build a real compiler from the ground up with Rust. Follow the journey from source code to native x86-64 machine code as you design Lumina, explore optimization and register allocation and tackle the practical challenges that come with building a production-quality compiler.

  6. Deterministic Matching Engines in C++23/26
    Deterministic Matching Engines in C++23/26
    Lock-Free Order Books, Cache-Line Aligned Price-Time Priority, and Zero-Jitter Trade Execution.
    Weston Ashgrove

    The engine never crashed. Every test passed. Then the opening auction cleared, order flow jumped fivefold, and for eight minutes it matched every order correctly against a book that was already 700 milliseconds out of date. Several hundred clients got fills that were individually plausible and collectively wrong. Nothing in the logs said why.This book is about that gap between "thread-safe" and "deterministic," and how to close it: lock-free CAS design, cache-line layout measured with perf c2c, zero-allocation hot paths, jitter hunted down to the interrupt level, and proof that the same event log replays byte-for-byte identical ten thousand times, including after a crash.

  7. Building AI Agents That Actually Work with DeepSeek Harness
    Building AI Agents That Actually Work with DeepSeek Harness
    A Production Engineering Guide to Reliable, Secure, Observable Agents on DeepSeek Models
    Steve Publications

    What does it take to turn an AI agent from a clever demo into something you can trust in production? This hands-on guide uses DeepSeek Harness to show how to build reliable, secure and observable agents, from a simple script to a production-ready service with budgets, tracing, evals and multi-tenant support.

  8. The Almost-Right Machine
    The Almost-Right Machine
    Adlerian Essays on Software Engineering in the Age of AI
    Marco Vieira

    AI is most dangerous when it's almost right. Fifteen essays on software engineering in the age of AI, read through the psychology of Alfred Adler, about the machine that is almost right, and about our almost-right responses to it.

  9. Podman
    Podman
    Trettio övningar
    Jonas Björk

    Den här boken lär oss Podman genom att faktiskt använda det, laboration för laboration, från vårt allra första podman run till en komplett, rootless produktionsmiljö som startar sig själv efter en omstart. Vi bygger egna images, kopplar ihop containrar över nätverk vi själva skapar, sätter upp persistent lagring för riktiga databaser och lär oss felsöka system som faktiskt gått sönder, med flit.

  10. Modern Browser Fingerprinting: Techniques and Code

    Build a Deep Technical Understanding of How Modern Browsers Reveal Device IdentityBrowser fingerprinting has evolved far beyond traditional cookies and persistent tracking identifiers. Modern websites can derive identifying signals from browser internals, graphics hardware, JavaScript runtimes, network protocols, rendering engines, media subsystems, and operating system characteristics. When combined, these signals can help distinguish devices and correlate browsing sessions even when conventional tracking mechanisms are unavailable.Modern Browser Fingerprinting: Techniques and Code is a comprehensive technical guide to the architecture, mathematics, implementation, and practical applications of browser fingerprinting. It examines how individual signals are generated, how their identifying value can be measured, and how multiple observations can be combined to construct probabilistic device profiles.Combining technical explanations with source code, controlled experiments, telemetry analysis, and statistical methods, the book explores browser fingerprinting across security research, fraud prevention, bot detection, web analytics, and digital privacy. It also examines the limitations of fingerprint-based identification, including measurement noise, browser updates, hardware changes, signal instability, and privacy-preserving countermeasures.

  11. Practical Wireshark
    Practical Wireshark
    Ground Truth Books

    A capture that's too big, a complaint that's too vague: this book teaches you to get from there to the packets that explain it. Twenty chapters and 80 exercises on real captures take you from your first capture to TLS decryption, scan detection and your own Lua dissector, with the output of commands run in the lab cited on the page so you can check it yourself.

  12. Gemini 4 Argon Prompting Guide
    Gemini 4 Argon Prompting Guide
    A Complete Guide to Prompting, Long-Horizon Workflows, Strategies, Optimization, Strengths, Weaknesses and Practical Applications

  15. The Sovereign Developer

    You don't owe the world your code. Open-source culture has a default: build something good, publish it, license it, answer the issues, keep it compatible forever. The Sovereign Developer asks the question that default skips: what does this developer actually gain by making this work public, and what do they give up to do it?This is not an argument against open source. It's an argument against treating openness as the automatic answer for every project. Drawing on economics, law, and the realities of maintainer burnout, the book makes the case that keeping software private can be the better choice for a given developer, and if you've already published something that no longer serves you, it offers a framework for deciding what to do next.For developers who have felt pressure to open-source something without ever weighing the cost, this book makes the case for the other option.
