  Outsourcing and entrusting your tasks or projects to freelancers, employees or consultants is risky because they are not always reliable. They are prone to missing deadlines, making excuses or handing in subpar work. 
  Such scenarios aren't just frustrating; they’re expensive, stressful, and can damage your business's reputation. Every delayed project is a missed opportunity, and every substandard delivery erodes your credibility with your customers or clients. More than that, these issues are a direct assault on your financial bottom line with funds spent on underperforming staff, lost customers, and the often-hidden costs of finding and training replacements. 
  In this unforgiving environment, traditional hiring models often seem more like a gamble than a strategy. But there has to be a solution, right? Meet ChatGPT, a solution that brings the promise of stability and reliability to this chaotic landscape. 
  Imagine a world where your 'employee' is available around the clock, needs no breaks or vacations, and is impervious to the personal issues that routinely derail human workers. This employee writes flawlessly, researches tirelessly, handles customer inquiries with tact and precision and doesn’t miss deadlines. 
  In his book entitled ChatGPT For Hire: It Never Sleeps and Never Makes Excuses author Omar Johnson shows you how to make the paradigm shift from hiring unreliable freelancers, employees, and consultants to empowering yourself with AI. This book is an invitation for you to explore a new paradigm, one where AI—specifically ChatGPT—becomes your go-to solution for a wide array of tasks that, until now, you depended on a human workforce to perform.

  In recent years, the Internet revolution has caused a shift in how fast technology is developed and marketed. We have seen the appearance of “Web Years” as a measure of time, and the widespread adoption of Rapid Application Development (RAD) as a standard software development method used in even our largest organizations. There has been a parallel shift in how projects are managed. First appearing in software development projects, Agile Development methods are now a very hot topic in software development conferences and magazines. These are methods that stress the speed of development and close interaction with the customer over traditional, more bureaucratic, practices.This recording will outline the underlying principles of Agile Development and details of how it differs from traditional development projects. Then, using an agile project management method called Scrum, it will illustrate how agile management methods used in software development may be extended to projects from other application areas outside of I/T. Listeners will come away from the session with a high-level understanding of the Agile Development philosophy and how it differs from traditional development approaches, enough of an understanding of Scrum to be able to determine if and how it could be implemented on a project, and a list of resources for further information on Agile Development and Scrum.

  The Great Derangement - Climate...

  A “concise and utterly enlightening” look at why we can’t wrap our minds around climate change (Publishers Weekly).   Are we deranged? Award-winning essayist and novelist Amitav Ghosh argues that future generations may think so. How else to explain our imaginative failure in the face of global warming? The Great Derangement examines our inability—at the level of literature, history, and politics—to grasp the scale and violence of climate change. The extreme nature of today’s climate events, Ghosh asserts, make them peculiarly resistant to current modes of thinking and imagining. This is particularly true of serious literary fiction: hundred-year storms and freakish tornadoes simply feel too improbable; they are automatically consigned to genres like science fiction. In the writing of history, too, the crisis has sometimes led to gross simplifications, but the carbon economy is a tangled story with many contradictory and counterintuitive elements. Ghosh ends by suggesting that politics, much like literature, has become a matter of personal moral reckoning rather than an arena of collective action, and that limitation comes at great cost. The climate crisis asks us to imagine other forms of human existence—a task to which fiction, Ghosh argues, is the best suited of all cultural forms. His book serves as a great writer’s summons to confront the most urgent task of our time, and “makes the case that climate solutions can’t be left to scientists, technocrats, and politicians” (Los Angeles Review of Books).   “Perhaps the most penetrating cultural critic of a new age defined by climate change and the strange, inadequate, and often self-deluding ways we process its transformations in our storytelling.”—New York Magazine   “Resistance to the grim realities of climate change is so widespread that the crisis barely figures in literary fiction, notes writer Amitav Ghosh…The solution, he argues, lies in collective action as well as scientific and governmental involvement.”—Nature

  Timing of Biological Clocks

  "A clock," writes Arthur T. Winfree, "is not much good if you can't pull out its stem and set it."Similarly, the most critical property of biological clocks--which rhythmically organize the processes of life--is their ability to reset on cue.This ability allows enables biological clocks to regain synchrony with a changing environment (as when we travel across time zones) or to maintain the alignment between certain physiological rhythms and the natural solar day.In The Timing of Biological Clocks, Winfree explores circadian rhythms. In reporting experiments on animals, plants, and single cells, he not only illustrates the principles that guide the resetting of biological clocks but reveals that each of these clocks has a vulnerable phase, a moment in each "turn of the dial" when a cueing stimulus of a particular intensity results in an abnormal, unpredictable resetting--perhaps even annihilating the clock's rhythm entirely.A singular feature of the author's exploration of these phenomena is his use of a range of colors to represent the passage of cyclic time. By this device, Winfree not only removes the purely arbitrary discontinuity of a conventional clock dial but makes reasoning about the real discontinuities of biological clocks transparently clear.

  Artificial intelligence has long been a mainstay of science fiction and increasingly it feels as if AI is entering our everyday lives, with technology like Apple's Siri now prominent, and self-driving cars almost upon us.
  
  But what do we actually mean when we talk about 'AI'? Are the sentient machines of 2001 or The Matrix a real possibility or will real-world artificial intelligence look and feel very different? What has it done for us so far? And what technologies could it yield in the future?
  
  AI expert Yorick Wilks takes a journey through the history of artificial intelligence up to the present day, examining its origins, controversies and achievements, as well as looking into just how it works. He also considers the future, assessing whether these technologies could menace our way of life, but also how we are all likely to benefit from AI applications in the years to come.
  
  Entertaining, enlightening, and keenly argued, this is the essential one-stop guide to the AI debate.
