This Is Your Captain Speaking - Stories from the Flight Deck

Doug Morris

Sinopse

For everyone from frequent fliers to aviation geeks, travel buffs to nervous travelers, Captain Doug Morris tells you everything you want (and need!) to know about flight
		 
Captain Doug Morris has been writing for his airline’s in-flight magazine for 24 years and has answered a gamut of questions. This Is Your Captain Speaking will draw from his extensive experience and explain everything you ever wanted to know about airline travel: whether airliners have keys, why the bumps, what aircrew get up to on layovers, what’s the deal with “mile-high memberships,” and how to become a pilot. It also provides entertaining anecdotes from air travel’s unsung heroes — flight attendants. It’s the A to Z of airline travel with a twist of humor. The flight deck door will always be closed, but Doug exposes the unique inner world of aviation to the public.

Beyond Vibe Coding - From Coder...

Addy Osmani

AI is transforming software development, shifting programmers from writing code to collaborating with AI in an intent-driven workflow. Vibe coding—a prompt-first, exploratory approach where you describe what you want in natural language and let a large language model fill in the blanks—represents a radical shift in the developer's role from writing code to directing it. However, vibe coding comes with a serious caveat: Like a high-speed exploratory vehicle, it can take you off the beaten path quickly. Beyond Vibe Coding: From Coder to AI-Era Developer explores how AI-powered coding assistants like GitHub Copilot and OpenAI Codex are reshaping the way we build software, from automating routine coding tasks to influencing architecture and design decisions. 
 
Written by Addy Osmani, this guide provides developers, tech leads, and organizations with practical strategies to integrate AI into their workflows effectively. Learn how to formulate clear goals and constraints for the AI, review AI-generated code critically, and integrate those pieces into a coherent whole. Whether you're adopting AI tools today or preparing for the future of software engineering, this book offers insights and hands-on examples to keep your skills sharp in this evolving landscape.

They propose shifting the focus to “What happened to you?” instead.

But this is just one of the core messages of Oprah and Dr. Perry’s book. Want to know what the other core messages are?
“Workbook: What Happened to You?” not only provides all the powerful ideas, practices, and concepts that Oprah and Dr. Perry discuss in their original book in a clear and concise format, but it also offers interactive exercises, reflective and thought-provoking questions, tools, resources for healing, and supplementary information; all designed to enrich your understanding and help you apply what you’ve read.
You will get:A powerful combination of storytelling and the latest research on neuroscience and traumatology.Shocking facts about trauma, information on different methods of treatment, and much more!An immersive experience that will bridge the gap between the book's teachings and your own life.
