  1. Designing Evals for Agentic Systems
    Designing Evals for Agentic Systems
    A Practitioner's Field Guide
    Rhys Fisher

    Your agent's dashboard is green. Your evaluators report an 87% pass rate. Then a customer complaint reveals the system has been confidently fabricating regulatory citations for three weeks. The evaluators weren't broken — they were measuring the wrong things. This field guide exists because the gap between "we have evals" and "our evals actually protect us" is larger than most teams realize.

  2. Constraint-Based Design: An Unexpected Gateway to Understanding Modern LLM Architecture
    Constraint-Based Design: An Unexpected Gateway to Understanding Modern LLM Architecture
    The HPC Tradecraft Master Practitioner, Volume 3
    Edward W. Barnard

    A 1986 text adventure game written inside the Cray I/O Subsystem turns out to be architecturally isomorphic to modern transformer design. This capstone volume uses the playable game and its assembly language source as a case study in constraint-based design, including the bare metal thinking we stopped teaching around 1995.

  3. Consciousness-First Cosmogenesis: Research Corpus
    Consciousness-First Cosmogenesis: Research Corpus
    The Formal Technical Apparatus of the CFC Framework
    Michael E Shorter

    The complete formal and technical apparatus of Consciousness-First Cosmogenesis — a modern metaphysical research program treating consciousness as ontologically fundamental. Twenty documents in one compiled volume: seven-layer ontology, category-theoretic mathematical framework, canonical definitions, embodiment architecture, time philosophy, ethics, and unificatory extensions into four applied domains. The technical companion to the CFC trade book.

  4. Force–Information–Time: Essays on Structural Evolution - Volume 1
    Force–Information–Time: Essays on Structural Evolution - Volume 1
    A Companion Volume to the Force–Information–Time Framework
    Qien Huang

    What if time is not merely a clock, but a filter? What if systems fail not because they lack information, but because correction arrives too late to matter? What if technologies become dominant not because they are best, but because they have already reorganized the future around themselves? And what if Human–LLM collaboration is no longer just a sequence of prompts and answers, but an evolving ecology shaped by its own artifacts? Force–Information–Time: Essays on Structural Evolution is a companion volume to the FIT framework. Rather than restating the core theory, it explores what becomes visible when structural thinking is carried across learning, institutions, science, technology, Human–LLM collaboration, and human life.

  5. Ethics in High-Stakes Environments: Personal Survival Within a Power Imbalance
    Ethics in High-Stakes Environments: Personal Survival Within a Power Imbalance
    The HPC Tradecraft Master Practitioner, Volume 1
    Edward W. Barnard

    The ACM Code of Ethics won't protect you. This book traces how Harvard Business School deliberately stripped corporate America of its ethical guardrails, and applies lessons from military survival training to help software developers navigate the resulting power imbalance without losing themselves in the process.

  6. The Gap
    The Gap
    Why Software Delivery Gets Harder, Slower, and More Expensive—and What Stops It
    Luniel de Beer

    Missed deadlines, defects, technical debt, rework, and rising costs are usually treated as separate problems. The Gap shows what connects them and why the usual remedies only go so far.

  7. The AI Coverup: Are We Really Hallucinating?
    The AI Coverup: Are We Really Hallucinating?
    HPC Tradecraft Apprenticeship, Volume 1
    Edward W. Barnard

    What was so unusual and special about Cray Research? We accomplished, repeatedly, what nobody else on the planet was able to match. High-Performance Computing is not merely parallelism and large-scale systems. That is the public-facing decoy version.

  8. IL CODICE ROMA 25™: L’Ingegneria del Fare
    IL CODICE ROMA 25™: L’Ingegneria del Fare

  9. Spec Driven Development
    Spec Driven Development
    Construye con IA sin Perder el Control
    Bezael Pérez

    Usar IA para programar es fácil. Usarla sin perder el control, no tanto. Spec-Driven Development es el método para convertir tu idea en una spec que la IA ejecuta con precisión — sin loops infinitos, sin código roto, sin empezar de cero.
