Alex Gonzalez

A disturbing examination of toxic masculinity and the darkest pits of the Internet, about a young man's algorithmic descent into depravity in a future that's nearly here. "A visionary book that is at once pensive, rollicking, and truly, bone-deep unsettling. Alex Gonzalez's rekt is an absolute stunner." --Paul Tremblay, New York Times bestselling author of Horror Movie and A Head Full of Ghosts > be me, 26 > about to end it all > feels good, man Once, Sammy Dominguez thought he knew how the world worked. The ugly things in his head--his uncle's pathetic death, his parents' mistrust, the twisted horrors he writes for the Internet--didn't matter, because he and his girl, Ellery, were on track for the good life in this messed-up world. Then a car accident changed everything. Spiraling with grief and guilt, Sammy scrambles for distraction. He finds it in shock-value videos of gore and violence that terrified him as a child. When someone messages him a dark web link to footage of Ellery dying, he watches--first the car crash that killed her, then hundreds of other deaths, even for people still alive. Accidents. Diseases. Suicides. Murders. The host site, chinsky, is sadistic, vicious, impossible. It even seems to read his mind, manipulate his searches. But is chinsky even real? And who is Haruspx, the web handle who led him into this virtual nightmare? As Sammy watches compulsively, the darkness in his mind blooms, driving him down a twisted path to find the roots of chinsky, even if he must become a nightmare himself...

Over 79 hands-on recipes for professional embedded Linux developers to optimize and boost their Yocto Project know-how About This Book • Optimize your Yocto setup to speed up development and debug build issues • Use what is quickly becoming the standard embedded Linux product builder framework—the Yocto Project • Recipe-based implementation of best practices to optimize your Linux system Who This Book Is For If you are an embedded Linux developer with the basic knowledge of Yocto Project, this book is an ideal way to broaden your knowledge with recipes for embedded development. What You Will Learn • Optimize your Yocto Project setup to speed up development and debug build issues • Use Docker containers to build Yocto Project-based systems • Take advantage of the user-friendly Toaster web interface to the Yocto Project build system • Build and debug the Linux kernel and its device trees • Customize your root filesystem with already-supported and new Yocto packages • Optimize your production systems by reducing the size of both the Linux kernel and root filesystems • Explore the mechanisms to increase the root filesystem security • Understand the open source licensing requirements and how to comply with them when cohabiting with proprietary programs • Create recipes, and build and run applications in C, C++, Python, Node.js, and Java In Detail The Yocto Project has become the de facto distribution build framework for reliable and robust embedded systems with a reduced time to market. You'll get started by working on a build system where you set up Yocto, create a build directory, and learn how to debug it. Then, you'll explore everything about the BSP layer, from creating a custom layer to debugging device tree issues. In addition to this, you'll learn how to add a new software layer, packages, data, scripts, and configuration files to your system. You will then cover topics based on application development, such as using the Software Development Kit and how to use the Yocto project in various development environments. Toward the end, you will learn how to debug, trace, and profile a running system. This second edition has been updated to include new content based on the latest Yocto release. Style and approach This recipe-based book will guide you through all the development stages of an embedded Linux product design using the Yocto Project.

In the few short years since tablets were introduced, they have become a popular addition to classrooms across all grade levels and content areas. By putting this device in the hands of students and teachers, we can grab hold of their interest, interact with content on a more personalized level, and monitor real-time learning. But how we use tablets in the classroom needs thoughtful planning to ensure that the technology actually improves the teaching and learning process. Nancy Frey, Doug Fisher, and Alex Gonzalez offer practical advice on how to effectively use tablets as part of the gradual release of responsibility from teacher to student. You'll learn how to ensure that tablets are integrated into high-quality instruction, including strategies for using tablets for modeling, guided instruction, collaborative learning, independent learning, and formative assessment. Filled with examples of teachers successfully using tablets in their classrooms, this resource will help you maximize the potential of tablet technology to facilitate student understanding.
