• Best Linux Kernel book to read in 2023?

  Honestly, you're probably best off just reading LWN: https://lwn.net/. They publish articles on bleeding-edge features of the kernel, often before they're even merged.

• Ask HN: What is the ideal format to structure AI prompts?

  User input does not need to be sanitized if it is programmatically inserted into the document as the value of a key in a regular dict section.
