The sed command is a versatile and feature-rich version for search and replace operations, usable from the command line. An important feature that GUI applications may lack is regular expressions, a mini-programming language to precisely define a matching criteria.

The grep command is a versatile and feature-rich version of search functionality usable from the command line. The most notable feature is regular expressions, a mini-programming language to precisely define a matching criteria. In this book, you'll learn about GNU grep and ripgrep with plenty of examples and exercises.

Scripting and automation tasks often need to extract particular portions of text from input data or modify them from one format to another. This book will help you learn Python Regular Expressions, a mini-programming language for all sorts of text processing needs.

Tips and tricks for using d3.js (version 7), one of the leading data visualization tools for the web. It's aimed at getting you started and moving you forward. You can download for FREE or donate to encourage further development if you wish :-).

After more than twenty years at IBM — including roles as Regional Technical Leader for Security Technologies and Tivoli Software across Central and Eastern Europe — I have seen many SOC modernization projects. Organizations consistently face the same dilemma: substantial existing investments in SIEM, SOAR, processes, and human expertise versus the urgent need to keep pace with AI-powered threats.Most vendors pushed rip-and-replace cloud solutions. I took a different path.The Brownfield Agentic SOC concept was born from the realization that modernization does not require replacement. It is possible — and often far more effective — to intelligently augment existing infrastructure with multi-level AI agents, dynamic business context, structured investigation, and strong governance, while preserving data sovereignty and human judgment.This book is intentionally practical and conceptual. Certain advanced techniques (self-healing patterns, zero-visible-downtime adaptation, tamper-evident intelligent audit) are subject to pending patent protection and are presented here at architectural level only.I wrote this book for three audiences:CISOs and SOC leaders in regulated industries seeking realistic modernizationSecurity architects responsible for next-generation operationsTeams that prioritize sovereignty, compliance, and human-AI collaborationMy goal is to provide a clear, actionable blueprint that respects real-world constraints while delivering measurable improvement.I hope this book inspires and equips you to build more resilient, intelligent, and sovereign Security Operations Centers.Zsolt L.

This short book introduces process data scientists to knowledge graphs and GraphRAG, a powerful combination that overcomes the limitations of vanilla RAG when answering the kind of cross-document, relationship-heavy questions that process engineers usually care about. With a hands-on, application-driven approach, the book walks readers through the complete pipeline: designing an ontology for plant data, using LLMs to extract entities and relationships from incident reports, building and querying the graph in Neo4j, and finally assembling everything into a demo web application.

"Stop writing code. Start engineering impact."Bridge the gap between a Junior Developer and a System Architect. Master the high-level infrastructure, cloud patterns, and open-source rigor required to build sustainable, global-scale systems. From AWS Lambda and Terraform to the ethics of Data Integrity, this is your masterclass in building "Proof of Work" that matters.

A physical theory is a self-consistent fixed-point of (probe-algebra, state, entropy, dynamics) closed against a substrate. One criterion (closure with substrate-faithfulness) recovers classical mechanics, statistical mechanics, quantum mechanics, and equilibrium thermodynamics as different regimes of one structure, and rules out five classes of standard claim. Cut-invariance falls out as a corollary; the four laws of thermodynamics fall out as derivations.

Bridge the gap between classical thermodynamics and the quantum frontier with this rigorous, self-contained introduction to open quantum systems and single-shot theory. From the formal derivation of the Gibbs formula to the nuances of entanglement in excited helium, this course provides the mathematical tools and conceptual clarity needed to master the modern thermal landscape. It is the essential "First Course" for anyone ready to move beyond standard textbooks and dive into the cutting edge of quantum resource theory.

A practical front-end debugging guide to the tools and techniques required to debug, optimize and monitor your web applications. This handbook helps you gain the fundamental and deep knowledge of a comprehensive toolset, from Chrome DevTools and framework extensions to integrated IDE debuggers.

You already know how to work hard. The question is whether you know when to stop.Most frameworks optimize effort. The Ishi Spiral governs it. It is a discipline of self-governance that sustains performance under pressure without drifting into burnout or grinding past the point where continuation is still justified. The Guide is the Companion to 'Ishi: the Discipline of Determined Intent'.
