This looks like a good pre-read for Nathan Lambert's https://rlhfbook.com/
Is this riffing on Strunk and Whites: The Elements of Style?
Often referred to as "The Little Book".
Most likely not: “The Little Book of …” has been a publisher’s standby since the nineteenth century (at least).
I'm assuming it's more in line with The Little Schemer series of books (https://felleisen.org/matthias/BTLS-index.html) or maybe the little book of deep learning (https://fleuret.org/francois/lbdl.html)?
No, it's _obviously_ homage to the Little Liddel[0]. ;)
