The Coder Cafe
The Coder Cafe introduces 66 vital software engineering concepts that will upgrade your day-to-day practice, regardless of your skill level. You’ll find focused explanations—each five pages or less—on everything from foundational data structures to distributed architecture. These timeless concepts are the perfect way to turn your coffee break into a high-impact career boost.
Latency
Slow responses can kill good software. This book shows you how to spot, understand, and respond to latency wherever it appears in your applications and infrastructure. It balances theory with practical implementations, turning academic research into useful techniques you can apply to your projects.
Writing for Developers
This book is a practical guide to writing more compelling engineering blog posts. Learn all about applying 7 popular blog post patterns (The Bug Hunt, We Wrote it in X, Lessons Learned…), getting the most out of limited writing/revision time, and navigating LLM uses/abuses for blogging. Bonus: foreword by Bryan Cantrill, afterword by Scott Hanselman!
ScyllaDB in Action
Curious about ScyllaDB, the monstrously fast and scalable database from the hosts of P99 CONF? Discord engineer Bo Ingram teaches you ScyllaDB the best way—through (really fun) hands-on examples. Bo guides you through everything you need to know about ScyllaDB, from your very first queries to running it in a production environment.
Think Distributed Systems
Creating efficient distributed systems requires you to think differently about failure, performance, network services, resource usage, latency, and much more. This book guides you into the mindset you’ll need to design, develop, and deploy scalable and reliable distributed systems – complete with analogies, practical examples, and helpful illustrations.
100 Go Mistakes and How to Avoid Them
100 Go Mistakes and How to Avoid Them puts a spotlight on common errors in Go code you might not even know you’re making. You’ll explore key areas of the language such as concurrency, testing, data structures, and more—and learn how to avoid and fix mistakes in your own projects. As you go, you’ll navigate the tricky bits of handling JSON data and HTTP services, discover best practices for Go code organization, and learn how to use slices efficiently.
