  Sustainable Tech Solutions for Enterprise Scalability 
   
  The modern economy runs on technology; it is the backbone of all major businesses. From firing packets of information between customers and websites to tracking customer demographics and purchase history–every bit of information that occurs online is captured through data. As businesses scale and transactions grow, the volume of data (and the number of servers required to store it) creates an increasingly complex environment that makes managing and monitoring the overall health of your organization’s technology stack a dizzying task for even the most well-informed IT professional. 
   
  Fortunately for today’s CDOs, CTOs, CIOs, and even CFOs, the founder and CEO of Fortified, a leading database managed service provider, Ben DeBow has written End of Abundance in Tech: How IT Leaders Can Find Efficiencies to Drive Business Value. 
   
  DeBow’s patent-pending approach allows IT executives to: 
  Develop a technology environment that’s more efficientIncrease server resource productivityProvide better financial transparency into the technology costsOptimize system scalability, performance, and stabilityPotentially save millions that were previously tied up in inefficient technology practices 
   
  To determine the health, efficiency, and capacity of their systems, leaders need solutions they can act on. Yet, many technology leaders lack real insights into the health of their technology environment at the organizational level. In a refreshing shakeup of the status quo, DeBow’s book equips IT executives with actionable solutions for managing and monitoring technology health so they can maximize the efficiency of the enterprise’s entire tech stack and deliver measurable value to the bottom line.

  When Bernd Heinrich decided to write a memoir of his ultramarathon running experience he realized that the preparation for the race was as important, if not more so, than the race itself. Considering the physiology and motivation of running from a scientific point of view, he wondered what he could learn from other animals. 
   
   
   
  In Why We Run, Heinrich considers the flight endurance of birds, the antelope's running prowess and limitations, and the ultra-endurance of camels to understand how human physiology can or cannot replicate these adaptations. With his characteristic blend of scientific inquiry and philosophical musings, Heinrich offers an original and provocative work combining the rigors of science with the passion of running.

  Ultimate Mind Theory

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  What if consciousness is not something we have — but something reality is made of? 
  Ultimate Mind Theory begins with a single, undeniable truth: I am conscious. From that starting point, this book constructs a layered system of logic that reaches far beyond personal insight — into the architecture of existence itself. 
  This is not a spiritual belief or philosophical guess. 
   It is a theory — complete with structure, stages, and internal checks — that dares to ask: 
  What are the 7 irreducible facts of conscious experience? 
  What laws must follow from being aware at all? 
  Why do pain, desire, and emotion obey patterns — and what are they trying to resolve? 
  Could our personal struggles reflect a much older story — one built into the nature of reality? 
  Combining deep logic with emotional clarity, Ultimate Mind Theory offers a radical yet grounded map of existence. It reinterprets karma, suffering, evolution, and the very shape of the self — not through mysticism, but through coherent, testable reasoning. 
  For those discontent with shallow answers and hungry for meaning that holds up under pressure, this book offers a challenge: 
  Start with what you know. Follow it to where you never expected.

  Methuselah's Zoo - What Nature...

  Opossums in the wild don't make it to the age of three; our pet cats can live for a decade and a half; cicadas live for seventeen years. Whales, however, can live for two centuries and tubeworms for several millennia. Meanwhile, human life expectancy tops out around the mid-eighties, with some outliers living past 100 or even 110. Is there anything humans can learn from the exceptional longevity of some animals in the wild? In Methusaleh's Zoo, Steven Austad tells the stories of some extraordinary animals, considering why, for example, animal species that fly live longer than earthbound species and why animals found in the ocean live longest of all. 
   
   
   
  Austad—the leading authority on longevity in animals—argues that the best way we will learn from these long-lived animals is by studying them in the wild. Accordingly, he proceeds habitat by habitat, examining animals that spend most of their lives in the air, comparing insects, birds, and bats; animals that live on, and under, the ground—from mole rats to elephants; and animals that live in the sea. 
   
   
   
  Humans have dramatically increased their lifespan with only a limited increase in healthspan; we're more and more prone to diseases as we grow older. By contrast, these species have successfully avoided both environmental hazards and the depredations of aging. Can we be more like them?

  A playful and provocative exploration of queer single parenting and love, in conversation with an AI algorithm and a toddler 
   
   
   
  My Child, the Algorithm describes encounters between a single parent, a curious, verbal toddler, and a language-producing algorithm. Like a male seahorse, Hannah Silva carried a baby made from her partner's egg. But when she gave birth, her partner left, and Hannah found herself navigating life alone with her child, surviving on United Kingdom universal credit, humor, and buckets of imagination. 
   
   
   
  As she navigates friendship, dating, and life as a queer parent in London, Hannah begins cowriting with an open-source language model, a precursor to ChatGPT, feeding the algorithm language and receiving language in return. Through her interactions with her toddler and the algorithm, expressions of humor, play, and insight begin to emerge. With the help and disruption of these unreliable narrators, Hannah deconstructs her story and constructs a new one, unraveling what she has been taught to want, finding alternative ways of thinking, loving, and parenting today.
