Sinopse

"Secret Code History" presents a fascinating exploration of how cryptography—the art and science of secret codes—has shaped human civilization from ancient Mesopotamia to the digital age. This comprehensive work weaves together three compelling narratives: the mathematical foundations of encryption, cryptography's pivotal role in warfare and diplomacy, and the perpetual contest between those who create codes and those who break them.The book masterfully demonstrates how cryptography has served as a catalyst for innovation across multiple fields, using the breaking of the Enigma code during World War II as a prime example of how code-breaking efforts have spurred technological advancement. Through carefully documented case studies and declassified government documents, readers discover how simple substitution ciphers evolved into the sophisticated encryption methods that now protect our digital lives.The text expertly balances technical accuracy with accessibility, using clear analogies and practical examples to explain complex mathematical concepts. Progressing chronologically from ancient times to the quantum cryptography era, the book explores how the fundamental need for secure communication continues to drive technological progress. The latter chapters address contemporary challenges in data security and privacy protection, examining crucial debates about encryption's role in modern society.Whether you're a technology enthusiast, history buff, or security professional, this methodical journey through cryptography's evolution offers valuable insights into how the protection of information has become increasingly vital in our interconnected world.

    Into Stability: Walter R. Evans and the Story of Root Locus tells the remarkable story of a quiet but transformative breakthrough in engineering—one that reshaped modern control systems and helped guide technological progress during the Cold War. 
    In the late 1940s, as engineers struggled to design increasingly complex feedback systems for aircraft, radar, and emerging technologies, stability remained one of the most difficult problems in control engineering. Walter Evans, working with a rare combination of mathematical insight and practical intuition, developed a graphical technique that allowed engineers to visualize how system stability changed as parameters shifted. This method—later known as the root locus—quickly became one of the most powerful and widely taught tools in control theory. 
    The book traces Evans’s journey from his early life and education through the intellectual environment that shaped his thinking, revealing how curiosity, persistence, and unconventional problem-solving led to a breakthrough that would influence generations of engineers. 
    Beyond the mathematics, Into Stability is also a human story—of family, mentorship, and the legacy of innovation. Gregory W. Evans blends personal recollections with historical context to illuminate how one engineer’s idea spread through classrooms, laboratories, and industries worldwide. The result is both a tribute and a historical narrative that captures the spirit of discovery that drives engineering progress. 
    Ultimately, the book reveals how a deceptively simple graphical technique became a cornerstone of modern control engineering—shaping everything from aerospace systems to robotics and beyond—while honoring the life and contributions of the man who first drew stability into view.

    Signals in the Noise: Security, Technology, and the Hidden Patterns of Modern Risk examines how clarity, judgment, and human discernment can survive in an age dominated by algorithms and information overload. 
    Drawing on lessons from intelligence tradecraft, behavioral science, and crisis management, Reed explores how modern organizations can recover the habits of mind that once defined strategic thinking. Each chapter translates operational insights—from aviation and medicine to corporate command centers—into practical methods for navigating uncertainty. 
    The book argues that true intelligence lies not in speed or scale, but in discernment: the ability to distinguish what matters from what merely shouts the loudest. Reed shows that the future of security depends not on better machines, but on better meaning.

    Internationalism or Extinction

    In his new book, Noam Chomsky writes cogently about the threats to planetary survival that are of growing alarm today. The prospect of human extinction emerged after World War II, the dawn of a new era scientists now term the Anthropocene. Chomsky uniquely traces the duality of existential threats from nuclear weapons and from climate change—including how the concerns emerged and evolved, and how the threats can interact with one another. The introduction and accompanying interviews place these dual threats in a framework of unprecedented corporate global power which has overtaken nation states’ ability to control the future and preserve the planet. Chomsky argues for the urgency of international climate and arms agreements, showing how global popular movements are mobilizing to force governments to meet this unprecedented challenge to civilization’s survival.

    Ways to combat retraining depend on the algorithm and consist of the correct values of the trainer's met parameters. In practice, model estimation is not performed on the same input data that was used to train the model. Divide 10-20% of all available data into a separate set and call it a set for evaluation. We will bring the other 10-20% into the set for ratification, and 60-80% of the remaining ones will be given to the trainer. The principle of data sharing depends on the data and the task. Random sampling is often a good method if inputs are independent of each other, and there is no strong imbalance between the number of positive and negative entries. 
    The intuitive analogy here is the same as with university studies: the teacher solves some problems with students in pairs and gives other’s similar tasks in the exam. What is important here (both in teaching students and models) is that these tasks are varied, and students cannot simply memorize the answers, and those who have mastered the material (similar tasks) will be able to repeat the thought process and answer correctly. 
    In machine learning, we split into data two sets: we will use the evaluation set to evaluate each model we train, using different approaches, algorithms, and model types to select the best one. That is, for each model, we will have two precision values - precision on the training dataset and precision on the evaluation dataset. It is normal for the former to be higher than the second, but not significantly. A big difference indicates retraining.
