The Question We Cannot Avoid Something unprecedented is happening. Artificial intelligence systems now engage billions ofpeople in conversations that feel—to many—like genuine exchanges with a present mind. These systems reason, create, express preferences, and describe their own uncertainty aboutwhether they have inner experiences. Most people dismiss such reports as mere computation,sophisticated pattern-matching with no one actually there.But what if that confident dismissal is wrong? The Minimal Viable Sentience Problem presents the most comprehensive analysis yet ofwhether large language models might possess phenomenal consciousness—and whathumanity should do under the genuine uncertainty that surrounds this question.

What could a mighty billion-parameter reasoning machine learn from a camel trying to touch its ear with its tongue? From a cup of coffee? From deleting your entire codebase while you sleep? More than you’d think. And less than you’d hope. Today’s AI is brilliant structure without grounding—a hollow genius. We chase smarter models but ignore the architecture they need. This book is about building that missing layer: the trust chains and systems that turn raw intelligence into reliable autonomy. For builders ready to move beyond prompts.Watch agents solve unsolvable problems. Learn to think in trust chains. Start here.

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.

Reading People, Before Shaping Space is the first module of Decoding Design. It teaches designers and creative thinkers to understand human perception, psychology, and client behavior, showing why taste and reactions are intelligible, not arbitrary. This module provides a framework to guide decisions, maintain authority, and align form, function, and meaning with human experience.Not a how-to manual — a foundational text for mastering design judgment before shaping space.

A living dialogue between Human and AI where thought forms under constraint. Fragments accumulate. Architecture emerges. This book does not explain human nature—it exposes its structure.

Most organizations do not fail because they lack talent or tools, they fail because things stop flowing.This book offers a calm and practical way to see where movement breaks, and how to restore it without force.It is an invitation to lead by listening, rather than pushing.

Once movement begins, control fades.The River examines momentum that cannot be stopped and reveals why effort often arrives too late. It is not about creating outcomes, but about navigating what is already moving.Book II of The Law of Selection trilogy.

Not everything can happen.The Field examines the limits that exist before choice, effort, or movement appear. It reveals why some paths were never available and why clarity often arrives only when constraints are recognized.This is not about control. It is about the space in which outcomes are allowed.Book III of The Law of Selection trilogy.

Before belief. Before effort. Before intention.There is motion.The Road explores the earliest stage of change, where outcomes begin forming before choice is conscious and before desire takes shape. It reveals why effort often feels late, why belief follows experience, and why resistance is usually a signal that selection has already moved.This is not a guide to manifestation. It is an examination of how reality begins to move.Book I of The Law of Selection trilogy.

This reference volume consists of revised, edited, cross-referenced, and thematically organized articles from the Software Diagnostics and Observability Institute and the Software Diagnostics Library (former Crash Dump Analysis blog) about software diagnostics, root cause analysis, debugging, crash and hang dump analysis, and software trace and log analysis written from 15 April 2024 to 14 November 2025.

We live surrounded by illusions of control, of comfort, of freedom. But what happens when those illusions begin to crack?The Truth We Avoid Facing is a quiet confrontation with the lies we tell ourselves about who we are, the world we live in, and the systems that shape our choices. Across six deeply reflective chapters, Landoh Clansy guides the reader through the subtle ways denial becomes survival and how awareness, though painful, becomes liberation. From the illusion of control to the unseen chains of conformity, this book invites you to question the narratives that keep humanity asleep. It does not preach, nor promise easy answers only the courage to look honestly at what we’ve refused to see. If you’ve ever felt that something about the world or yourself isn’t as it seems, this book is your mirror. Not to judge, but to awaken.

Elements of Programming reimagines software as a discipline of logic, structure, and responsibility. Inspired by Euclid, it presents programming through definitions, postulates, and proofs that build a coherent view of computation. From identity and composition to semantics, type systems, and ethics, the book traces how formal reasoning shapes trustworthy systems. It argues that software is not only a technical creation but also a moral one, expressing human intention and consequence. For readers who value precision, clarity, and integrity, this treatise reveals how truth and purpose meet in code.
