Know what's causing application development waste so you can turn the tide. This is the audiobook your systems integrator and your application software vendor don't want you to hear. Enterprise IT (information technology) is a $3.8 trillion-per-year industry worldwide. Most of it is waste. However, the waste is hard to see, after being so marbled through all the products, processes, and guiding principles. That is what this audiobook is about. We must see, understand, and agree about the problem before we can take coordinated action to address it.

Whether you're learning how to code for the first time, or just trying to add to your programming arsenal, you're in the right place. Python is one of, if not the most, widely used programming language today, whether you're at a large corporation or at home developing a game. It doesn't matter if you're into game development or mobile app engineering; Python is a great choice either way. The structure of the language doesn't require lengthy code to be written, and its comprehensive standard library allows it to support multiple programming paradigms.

Look around you. Artificial intelligence is no longer just a futuristic notion. It's here right now - in software that senses what we need, supply chains that "think" in real time, and robots that respond to changes in their environment. Twenty-first-century pioneer companies are already using AI to innovate and grow fast. The bottom line is this: Businesses that understand how to harness AI can surge ahead. Those that neglect it will fall behind. Which side are you on?

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 245
In a rarified world of scientific research, a revolution has been brewing. Its activists are not anarchists, but rather Nobel Laureates in physics and economics and pony-tailed graduates, mathematicians, and computer scientists from all over the world. They have formed an iconoclastic think-tank and their radical idea is to create a new science: complexity. They want to know how a primordial soup of simple molecules managed to turn itself into the first living cell--and what the origin of life some four billion years ago can tell us about the process of technological innovation today.

When Edmund Hillary first conquered Mt. Everest, Sherpa Tenzing Norgay was at his side. Indeed, for as long as Westerners have been climbing the Himalaya, Sherpas have been the unsung heroes in the background. In August 2008, when eleven climbers lost their lives on K2, the world’s most dangerous peak, two Sherpas survived. They had emerged from poverty and political turmoil to become two of the most skillful mountaineers on earth. Based on unprecedented access and interviews, Buried in the Sky reveals their astonishing story for the first time.
