  Identity Theft, Second Edition is an update to the award-winning book that follows Stanford professor Debra Meyerson’s journey to recover from a severe stroke that initially left her physically incapacitated and unable to speak. In addition to providing realistic expectations for the hard work needed to regain everyday capabilities, Meyerson and Zuckerman focus on the less frequently documented – but equally critical – emotional journey as she and her family rebuild identity in recovery. The second edition adds perspective from an additional five years of continued recovery and rebuilding their lives, including insights from the work of the nonprofit they co-founded – Stroke Onward. Virtually every stroke survivor is haunted by questions like “Who am I now?” and “How do I rebuild a meaningful and rewarding life?” after losing so much of what they had before—capabilities, careers and jobs, relationships, and more. The first edition centered on Debra’s experience: her stroke in 2010, her extraordinary efforts to recover, and her journey to redefine herself. But she also draws on her skills as a social scientist, sharing stories from several dozen fellow survivors, family members, friends, colleagues, therapists, and doctors she met and interviewed. By sharing this diversity of experiences, Debra highlighted how every stroke is different and every recovery is different. The new content in this second edition was written by Debra and her spouse, Steve Zuckerman. They co-founded the nonprofit Stroke Onward to build an organization that can catalyze change in the healthcare system to better integrate the emotional journey of rebuilding identity into a lifelong recovery process. They’ve added new insights about the long-term recovery process and how we can change the stroke system of care to better support all survivors and their families.

  Digital Liberty explores the imminent convergence of three pivotal themes: data, artificial intelligence and society’s intricate social graph, and warns of a looming crisis that threatens to challenge the very foundations of liberal democracies. Two distinct paths unfurl – a dystopian trajectory marked by surging inequality, globalized elites, and societal unrest, and a utopian alternative rooted in adapting to this impending crisis. Drawing from the annals of liberal philosophy and guided by the insights of our digital age, the book scrutinizes the profound interplay between technological architecture and the character of societies. 
  The book delves into the historical genesis of our contemporary digital milieu, explores the emerging vistas of artificial intelligence, dissects the interplay between technological architecture and political power, and presents a vision for a decentralized future. It demonstrates the transformative potential of decentralised technology in enhancing individual and societal wealth while fostering social cohesion, offering critical insights into the intersection of technology and society, and a guide to shaping a future that aligns with our democratic ideals.

  This podcast explores the use of deep learning to predict Bitcoin price direction. Several deep learning models, including CNN-LSTM, LSTNet, and TCN, are compared to an ARIMA model as a benchmark. Feature selection methods are employed to optimize model performance. The results show that the combination of Boruta feature selection with the CNN-LSTM model outperforms others, achieving an accuracy of 82.44% and generating extraordinary annual returns in simulated investment strategies. The study highlights the potential of predictive models in Bitcoin trading, while acknowledging limitations and suggesting areas for future research.

  "Advanced Java: From Beginner to Professional: Navigating the World of Java," is a textbook where any person aspiring to do Java programming can get very good master over the Java language. This book carries everything the Java programming learner needs to know or where an experienced programmer would require, all the way through from simple grammar to powerful programming techniques, but addresses every topic in the subject, right from setting it up and basic grammar on to very sophisticated coding. 
  It is a nice, clear overview of the Java ecosystem that starts off with a very solid foundation when it walks readers through key ideas like classes, inheritance, object-oriented programming, and encapsulation. 
  The book then develops into complex topics such as Java's collections framework, exception handling, multithreaded programs, and streams. This will ensure that all readers are equipped with effective, high-performance code to write. Every chapter follows a helpful task and many coding examples that will encourage readers to gain practical experience and repetition to reinforce the learning. 
  They will learn Java's Stream A-P-I, function programming, lambdas, method references, and functional interfaces. These are necessary if the reader wants clear and current Java code. And these skills will help an aspirant work as a professional developer since the focus here is on solving problems, which will involve use cases for Java in practice projects. 
  At the end of it all, the reader will be confident in and equipped with enough know-how to take up realistic applications, write robust programs that can be relied upon, and significantly contribute to the realm of software development.

  Discover the Lost Secrets of the Ancients and the Time When Stones Floated High over Egypt   Throughout history, folklore, and mystery, tales have circulated of massive stones being moved through the air effortlessly by sound. Bizarre? Well, yes, it is. That doesn’t take away the fact that sound was, and still remains, the key to the construction of the pyramids of Egypt, Stonehenge, the stone figures of Easter Island, and the massive stones at Baalbek, Lebanon. Were they the work of ancient humans or of equally ancient extraterrestrials?How Antigravity Built the Pyramids delves into specific stories and theories: A 9th-century story of a mysterious papyrus with the power to move large stones at the Giza Necropolis  The Mayan story of the construction of the Pyramid of the Magician said to be overseen by a small humanoid who could whistle large stones into place  Native American stories of ancient priests being able to make stones light to move easily    Author Nick Redfern argues it was not literally music and whistling that somehow raised large stones, but both have one thing in common: sound. Acoustics. Almost certainly, acoustic levitation was at the heart of these incredible feats. The truth of the science behind acoustic levitation was lost and forgotten for ages with little more left than fanciful tales of music, whistles, a curious papyrus, and strange metal rods that could achieve incredible feats in the air. Today, we are finally starting to get a grasp on this incredible technology, a technology that may have been the work of ancient humans, aliens from faraway worlds—or, perhaps, a combination of the two.
