Oswalt, Adell, Lowe, Edelman - Network Programmability & Automation
Ostatnio skończyłem czytać “Network Programmability & Automation” - książkę, której autorami są specjaliści od automatyzacji sieci: Matt Oswalt, Christian Adell, Scott S. Lowe i Jason Edelman. W tej zajawce spróbuję określić, o czym jest ta 800-stronicowa cegła oraz dlaczego nie byłem jej docelowym czytelnikiem.

These served me well: classic Python books, but now they have to go. If anyone is interested in recent Pythonic history: pick up in The Hague. Otherwise these tomes will be resigned to the old paper. Box set. No shipping. #python #oreilly #reference #code #history
@grimalkina The speed at which it went from meme to publication is shocking. I like how it says "early release, raw and unedited."
If you're going to release it unedited, why not release it unauthored?

OpenAI führt mehrere Klagen wegen seiner Praktiken bei Trainingsdaten und der Handhabung des Urheberrechts vor US-Gerichten. Daher wirft das Paper kein besonders schmeichelhaftes Licht auf das Unternehmen.
Researchers analyzed 13,962 paragraph excerpts from 34 #OReilly books, finding that #OpenAI #GPT4o "recognized" significantly more paywalled content than older models like GPT-3.5 Turbo. Technique, also known as a "membership inference attack," tests whether a model can reliably distinguish human-authored texts from paraphrased versions.
"GPT-4o [likely] recognizes, and so has prior knowledge of, many non-public O'Reilly books published prior to its training cutoff date"

Just noticed @evan's book on #ActivityPub is walled-garden digital only... That seems... odd? counter-intuitive? I mean, the fediverse is quite literally built on the opposite approach, no? Well, let's say I'd appreciate if enough people reached out to #oreilly (WTF, they don't even have an account? And @timoreilly has a *single* post?) for them to realize that a print run would be welcome :-) I for one don't own a kindle and I don't run closed-source apps either.
Finally got a copy of Jimmy Ray’s “Policy as Code”. And it’s really good! Proud about both myself and my #Regal project getting mentioned too.
The source of “The Little Book of Little Books,” a compilation of the three “Little Books” I had written back in 2015/2016 for O’Reilly (who had been so kind to return the rights to me), is now public:
https://github.com/j9t/little-books
(The ebook is inexpensive though, and also free if you have a Leanpub membership.)
As for the book—it’s aging, and probably more useful now as some sort of historical reference. And yet—I have tried my best to keep links up-to-date
For #Linux folk, #HumbleBundle is currently offering a big, well, bundle of #DevOps books from #OReilly in ebook/PDF formats , on their usual "pay what you like" basis.

An enormous thank you to our Royal Penguin #sponsor #RedHat, our Fairy Penguin #sponsor #APNIC, and to our In-Kind sponsors #CAVAL, @decryption, #OReilly, and #OneQode
Your #sponsorship of #EverythingOpen is hugely appreciated.
#EverythingOpen is delighted to have the continuing support of #OReilly Media as a valued #sponsor - they've long supported @linuxaustralia events.
O’Reilly has been publishing technical #books and #manuals relevant for the #OpenSource community since before that term was coined and has continued both publishing and training since then.
Thank you so much for your #sponsorship, O'Reilly
