    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. 
    In 2025, Americans reported losing more than eleven billion dollars to crypto fraud. Almost none of it was lost because a chart went red. 
     
    Stop Losing Money in Crypto is a one-hour, no-nonsense guide to the five ways money actually leaves people in crypto: scams, collapses, leverage, panic and lost keys. It opens with QuadrigaCX, the Canadian exchange whose founder supposedly took everyone's money to his grave, and what regulators found when they dug in. The real story is worse, and it is the most useful story in crypto. 
     
    You will learn why a balance on an exchange is a promise rather than a coin, why twelve words can be worth everything you own, how wrong-number texts, fake support agents and paid influencers really work, why leverage turns a survivable crash into a permanent loss, and why most memecoins were never going to make you rich. 
     
    Then the practice: how to build a vault for your crypto, step by step, and a thirty day plan to close every exit. No price predictions. No coin picks. Not financial advice. Just the ways people lose money in crypto, and how to make sure none of them take yours. Narrated by Kokoro, an AI voice.

    Designing and building machine learning (ML) systems can seem daunting for beginners, but understanding the foundational steps and principles can simplify the process. At its core, ML system design involves a series of well-defined steps that guide the transformation of raw data into valuable insights through predictive models. Here’s a beginner’s guide to understanding and implementing these steps effectively. 
    The first step in designing an ML system is problem definition. Clearly defining the problem you aim to solve is crucial. This involves understanding the business context, identifying the goals, and determining the type of problem—whether it is classification, regression, clustering, or another ML task. A well-defined problem ensures that the subsequent steps are aligned with the desired outcomes. 
    Once the problem is defined, the next step is data collection and preprocessing. Data is the backbone of any ML system, and its quality significantly impacts the performance of the models. Collect data from various sources and ensure it is relevant to the problem. Data preprocessing involves cleaning the data to handle missing values, removing duplicates, and normalizing the data. It also includes feature engineering, which involves selecting, modifying, or creating new features that enhance the predictive power of the model. 
    Finally, the deployment and monitoring phase ensures that the ML model is operational and continues to perform well over time. Deploy the model to a production environment where it can make real-time predictions or be used in batch processing. Implement monitoring systems to track the model’s performance and detect any drift in data distribution that might require retraining the model. Regularly update the model with new data to maintain its accuracy and relevance.

    A powerful, heart-breaking, surprisingly funny, honest and ultimately uplifting account of life on the medical frontline, and a moving testimony of the work done by Medecins Sans Frontieres and the extraordinary and sometimes eccentric people who work for it. 
     
    Damien Brown, a young Australian doctor, thinks he's ready when he arrives for his first posting with Medecins Sans Frontieres in Africa. But the town he's sent to is an isolated outpost of mud huts, surrounded by landmines; the hospital, for which he's to be the only doctor, is filled with malnourished children and conditions he's never seen; and the health workers - Angolan war veterans twice his age and who speak no English - walk out on him following an altercation on his first shift. 
     
    In the months that follow, Damien confronts these challenges all the while dealing with the social absurdities of living with only three other volunteers for company. The medical calamities pile up - a leopard attack, a landmine explosion, and having to perform surgery using tools cleaned on the fire being among them - but it's through Damien's evolving friendships with the local people that his passion for the work grows. 
     
    Band-Aid for a Broken Leg is a powerful, sometimes heart-breaking, often funny, always honest and ultimately uplifting account of life on the medical frontline in Angola, Mozambique and South Sudan. It is also a moving testimony of the work done by medical humanitarian groups and the extraordinary and sometimes eccentric people who work for them.

    Hybrid cars, and indeed, all electric vehicles are playing a rôle in the salvation of the planet’s eco-system. At least, in respect to the world supporting human life. However, hybrid cars will one day be replaced by vehicles that use no irreplaceable energy at at all, once the technology is there. It is likely that there will be at least two such power sources in the near future: electricity and hydrogen – but who knows what else will be available? 
    Hybrid and electric cars are revolutionizing the automotive landscape, offering a myriad of advantages that extend beyond the traditional internal combustion engine. One of the primary benefits is environmental sustainability. Electric cars produce zero tailpipe emissions, significantly reducing air pollution and carbon footprint. As the world grapples with climate change, the shift towards electric vehicles is a crucial step in mitigating environmental impact. 
    Furthermore, these vehicles contribute to energy efficiency. Hybrid cars combine an internal combustion engine with an electric motor, optimizing fuel consumption and reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Electric cars, relying solely on electric power, boast high energy efficiency and cost savings over time. With advancements in battery technology, electric cars now offer extended ranges and faster charging times, addressing concerns about range anxiety. 
    Beyond environmental and economic advantages, hybrid and electric cars provide a smoother and quieter driving experience. The instant torque delivery in electric motors enhances acceleration, making these vehicles not only eco-friendly but also performance-oriented. As governments worldwide incentivise the adoption of cleaner technologies, the advantages of hybrid and electric cars position them as the driving force in the future of sustainable and efficient transportation.
