@codeliftsleep @ManningMEAP Definitely a great deal considering all that it has (well, will have).

@PereMartra Knowing what it does at such a granule level is really cool — makes your book have that much more appeal.

A Gemma model with 4 fewer Transformer blocks achieves better PPL and Winogrande than the original.
That's what pruning + Knowledge Distillation achieve together.
Chapters 5 & 6 of Rearchitecting LLMs dropped on @ManningBooks .

• Master XGBoost
• Apply deep learning to tabular data
• Deploy models locally and in the cloud
• Build pipelines to train and maintain models

Honestly love this take. Toy chatbot demos look great because nothing real is on the other end of the call.
The hard part starts when an agent has to handle a half-finished workflow, recover from a stale tool response, or hand off to a human without losing the thread.
Glad someone is writing a book aimed at the actual gap, not another prompt-engineering tour.

Toy chatbot demos are easy. Building agentic AI that interacts with real tools and workflows is where things get interesting. @mgfeller's Building Agentic Applications with CrewAI and MCP walks through exactly that — from single agents and structured outputs to multi-agent systems, MCP servers, Cursor integrations, multimodal workflows, and human oversight. New in MEAP and half off through May 27th: hubs.la/Q04gcKMk0

@autobase_tech @vyruss Here at Manning? Or you mean for Jimmy?
English
@ManningBooks @vyruss Small ironic question :)
How many “temporary PostgreSQL solutions” became permanent in your company?
English
Postgres mistakes often aren't all that obvious.
PostgreSQL Mistakes and How To Avoid Them by @vyruss breaks down real-world issues across data types, security, and features and shows how to fix them with practical guidance.
Even experienced users will find gaps worth closing.

@adelbucetta @KirkDBorne While that's not what Kirk is showing here, there is a second edition, and that's part of what he gets into. It covers it in his first edition too, but it's even more in the second.

@KirkDBorne @ManningBooks the hard part isn't just writing code, it's knowing what behavior to bake into those agents from the start

@0x_Afzal @KirkDBorne How were we supposed to know we'd need more editions after the first edition? 😂
P.S. Have you considered a career in stand up? We've only gotten two comments from you and have laughed out loud twice. You're funny.

What if your stack is doing more work than your app? Modern browsers already handle a lot — routing, UI patterns, even app installs. Vanilla Web by @firt shows how to build real apps with plain JS, HTML, and CSS. You get less tooling with more control. Learn more: hubs.la/Q04dXWqT0

Running PostgreSQL in Kubernetes isn't just containers — it's lifecycle control, storage semantics, and high availability.
At SCaLE 23x, @vyruss breaks down how @CloudNativePG approaches the problem: directly managing Pods and PVCs, using native streaming replication, and automating failover, backups, and recovery with a declarative operator model.
