we publish tech books and sometimes other books too.
we often get asked why we're publishing a new edition. or what's new. or if there's "a point" to getting the new edition. or some variation thereof.

elton does a good job here summarizing 1. why the book matters and 2. what the second edition has that the first doesn't.

highly recommend.
Now @docker.com is ubiquitous but most people learn it on the job: lots of knowledge gaps.

New post on the 2nd edition of my book - Learn Docker in a Month of Lunches - now fully cross-platform (Linux/Windows/Intel/ARM) with modern cloud coverage.

check it — new in MEAP ↓
I'm excited to announce my RLHF Book is now in pre-order for the @manning.com Early Access Program (MEAP), and for this milestone it's 50% off.

Excited to land in print in early 2026! Lots of improvements coming soon.

Thanks for the support!

beyond research, deepseek models are a fairly new concept (probably won't be for long if they follow the typical LLM timeline 😂).

but the authors of build a deepseek model (from scratch) didn't waste any time. hear their story: hubs.la/Q03TlX4f0

their book is still half off: hubs.la/Q03TlVLB0

anyone else notice how AI agents went from, "ooo... these are cool," to, "yeah, so?" in like six months?

kinda made @cxbxmxcx.bsky.social's first edition of AI agents in action old news pretty quick.

so, he's writing another & it's out in MEAP.

get it half off through nov 27th: hubs.la/Q03T6Ttc0

whether you’re integrating an existing AI or hosting your own, AI governance can be a headache.

our new MEAP, AI governance by @engin.bsky.social & stefano bennati shows you how to take a practical approach to make it a bit less complex.

despite dax promising (and sometimes delivering) better models, it still falls short more often than we'd like.

that's what makes our new MEAP, dax reimagined, cool — it shows you how to use dax as an interactive logic engine.

an awesome part of conferences? signed books.

the best is when it's one of your faves.

that's how it was for many at pytorch when @sebastianraschka.com showed up.

as you may know, oct is #cybersecurityawarenessmonth.

have you improved your security?

someone on our team used changing her name as an opportunity to update everything (she just got married; it's not as weird as it sounds 😂).

we have books on the topic — just search "security": hubs.la/Q03QRfgM0

automating tasks with ai agents is great until what you want automated is a bit... gray.

multi-agent systems might be the fix. @nerdai.bsky.social is writing a book that shows how to build agents that collaborate, adapt, & scale from the ground up.

veteran coder in python or js?

ruby might be just what you need to bring back the good ol' days. throw rails in the mix, and you’ll probably start wondering why every framework isn’t built that way.

the cool thing about AI narration?

it improved accessibility two-fold.

but it's still not the same as a human's voice.

so we figured, let's give build a large language model (from scratch) by @sebastianraschka.com that human touch.
