Go Systems Programming
The book you are about to read is an honest book in the sense that it will present working Go code without overlooking its potential faults, its restrictions, and its logical gaffes, which will allow you to improve it on your own and create a better version of it in the future. What you will not be able to improve is the fundamental information that will be presented, which is the basis of the way Unix systems work.

Grokking concurrency
This is not your ordinary technical tome. No, it’s a book that will captivate and involve you, interweaving tales and cultural references into its pages. This book has evolved from a theo-retical guide to a journey packed with stories, cultural references (count them all!), and hilar-ious illustrations. It’s a book that doesn’t shy away from humor—and a deep love for dumplings and pizza—because why should learning concurrency be a dull and dreary experience

Grokking Deep Reinforcement Learning
This book is very well put together. It explains in technical but clear language what machine learning is, what deep learning is, and what reinforcement learning is. It allows the reader to understand the larger context of where the field is and what you can do with the techniques of deep RL, but also the way of thinking that ML, RL, and deep RL present. It is clear and concise. Thus, it works as both a learning guide and as a reference, and, at least for me, as a source of some inspiration.

NoSQL Essentials: Navigating the World of Non-Relational Databases
In this section, we will delve into the fundamental concepts of NoSQL databases. NoSQL, which stands for “Not Only SQL,” represents a diverse group of database management systems designed to address various challenges posed by modern data processing needs. Unlike traditional relational databases, NoSQL databases are schema-less, meaning they don’t enforce a rigid structure for data storage.

Praise for Architecting Data and Machine Learning Platforms
What is a data platform? Why do you need it? What does building a data and machine learning (ML) platform involve? Why should you build your data platform on the cloud? This book starts by answering these common questions that arise when dealing with data and ML projects. We then lay out the strategic journey that we recommend you take to build data and ML capabilities in your business, show you how to execute on each step of that strategy, and wrap up all the concepts in a model data modernization case.
