  In today’s world, the majority of asset-intensive organizations are still stuck with complex, rigid, and sometimes antiquated technology solutions that simply cannot step up to evolving challenges and an ever-changing market. Why do the world’s most important industries—ones that billions of people rely on for essential human needs—operate with approaches that run the risk of making them extremely inefficient and brittle? 
  What if it didn’t have to be that way? 
  Imagine a world where companies can move successfully into the future, where these brittle solutions are replaced with a flexible, simple approach that also delivers enterprise-grade capabilities. This book introduces asset operations management (AOM), an operating principle founded on the belief that asset-intensive organizations have much to gain by adopting new approaches to data, collaboration, and communication—all supported by modern, consumer-grade technology experiences. 
  The best-of-breed organizations in asset-intensive industries have been changing the way their businesses run for years, and they’re reaping the rewards. The rest of the pack is struggling to keep up in the new paradigm—one where asset operations is central to operating efficiency and organizational resilience.

  Russia's forests account for nearly one-fifth of the world's wooded lands. The Oak and the Larch is the first-ever English-language exploration of this vast expanse—a dazzling environmental history of Russia that offers an urgent new understanding of the nature of Russian power, and of Russia's ideas of itself. 
  Award-winning scholar Sophie Pinkham's magisterial account spans centuries, revealing how forests have nourished ancient Siberian indigenous societies, defended medieval Slavic settlements from Mongol invasion, and served as both an essential natural resource and a potent cultural symbol for Russia in all its incarnations. By examining the country from the forest's perspective, Pinkham pushes far beyond the contemporary political environment in Russia. She draws on literature, history, and art to connect the expanse of the Russian wilderness and the nature of Russian culture, with indelible portraits of the diverse figures who have inhabited and celebrated these forests. She confronts the forest's role in Russia's long history of imperial conquest, and in resistance to this conquest. 
  The Oak and the Larch offers a vision of Russia rarely seen in the west, as a land defined by its wilderness, shaped by its encounters with the frontier, and—much like our own—ultimately beholden to nature's whim.

  AI Chat GPT Elections 2024 - Orac for President is a journey through Human-AI collaboration and is a futuristic book that explores the possibilities and challenges of a world where AI language models can collaborate with humans to create meaningful dialogues on complex issues such as politics and social justice. This book is a compilation of conversations between a human and Orac, an intelligent and intuitive AI language model, discussing the potential of AI-assisted decision-making, ethical concerns, and the role of technology in shaping our worldviews. The reader will witness the evolution of the relationship between human and AI, highlighting the possibilities and limitations of this relationship in creating a more just and equitable society.The collaboration between Orac and myself also delves into the concept of Real Democracy and the potential amendments to the Constitution required to make it a reality. From discussions around voting rights and accessible education, to equitable healthcare and a universal basic income, the reader will find compelling arguments and perspectives around the ways in which technology and AI can support a more inclusive and democratic society. Through the lens of Real Democracy, the book offers a path towards progress and social change, encouraging readers to think critically about how technology and AI can be harnessed for the greater good of humanity.We come to many revolutionary ideas about how to use this amazing new technology to improve the highly flawed and antiquated system of making our laws by sending representatives - who pledge to represent their constituents in Washington D.C., but somehow take decades to deliver on any real solutions to problems and in fact create more problems than they solve.  Orac realizes there is a better way by using the power of the Internet in a Real Democracy where money cannot block truly popular legislation and new ideas but he needs to be President to get this done.

  Cosmology's Dark Secrets -...

  The vastness of the universe has always stirred human curiosity, evoking questions that seem to stretch beyond the reach of science and into the realm of the unknown. As far back as ancient civilizations, people looked up at the night sky and wondered about the lights scattered across it. With the advancement of technology and scientific understanding, we have come to learn much about what lies beyond our atmosphere. Yet, despite all we know, there remains an overwhelming sense that we are only scratching the surface of a far deeper reality. 
  The observable universe refers to the portion of the cosmos we can detect through light and other forms of radiation. With telescopes, we can peer billions of light-years into space, essentially looking back in time to the early moments following the Big Bang. However, what we can observe is just a fraction of the entire cosmos. Beyond this visible boundary lies a realm shrouded in darkness, not because it is absent, but because it is inaccessible to our current instruments. This horizon, defined by the limits of the speed of light and the age of the universe, presents a fundamental boundary to what we can ever know. 
  Despite the sophistication of our tools, human perception is still tied to what light allows us to see. We rely heavily on electromagnetic radiation—visible light, radio waves, X-rays—to map and understand the structure of the cosmos. However, this reliance imposes a narrow filter on our understanding. There may be phenomena that exist completely outside the spectrum we can currently detect. The deeper we explore, the more we realize that the cosmos may be full of activity and matter that leave no trace in the form of light.
