  In The AI Engineering Bootcamp: Build, Ship, Share, AI Makerspace cofounders "Dr. Greg" Loughnane and Chris "The Wiz" Alexiuk guide the listener through the foundational concepts and code needed to build production-grade Large Language Model (LLM) applications using leading open-source tooling. The book explains the four primary design patterns of generative AI―prompt engineering, Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), fine-tuning, and agentic reasoning―and how to leverage them as first principles to build scalable LLM applications that are high-performance and efficient. 
  You'll find classroom-tested lessons that offer immediate insights into building LLM applications, as well as example projects to give you hands-on experience that can be immediately applied within our company or with your clients today. The AI Engineering Bootcamp provides everything you need, from your initial AI-assisted Interactive Development Environment (IDE) set up and first deployment to the boilerplate Python code you need to prototype LLM, RAG, agent, and multi-agent applications. The book also covers how to prepare your prototypes for production by setting up open-source LLM and embedding model endpoints, leveraging caching for prompts and embeddings, what you need to host and deploy your application on premise, and more.

  Water Harvesting 101 - Learn How...

  Water Harvesting 101 introduces you to: 
  Passive Water Harvesting: This is the act of sculpting your land with basins, berms, and drainage swales. The goal? To channel rainwater toward plants and away from structures – like your house. Passive water-harvesting earthworks eliminate the need for landscape irrigation connected to municipal water systems. In arid regions, that spells substantial cost savings. 
  Active Water Harvesting: Want fresh garden produce when it’s 105 degrees out? And it hasn’t rained in six weeks? At my place, the 1,500-gallon rainwater harvesting cistern makes year ‘round gardening possible. And, on wash day, I don’t let the wastewater go down the drain. Instead, I use a greywater harvesting system that effortlessly diverts that wastewater from the laundry to my four fruit trees.

  The Progress Illusion -...

  Jon D. Erickson

  In The Progress Illusion, Jon D. Erickson charts the rise of the economic worldview and its infiltration into our daily lives as a theory of everything. Drawing on his own experience as a young economist inoculated in the 1980s era of "greed is good," Erickson shows how pseudoscience came to dominate economic thought. He pokes holes in the conventional wisdom of neo-classical economics, illustrating how flawed theories about financial decision-making and maximizing efficiency ignore human psychology and morality. Most importantly, he demonstrates how that thinking shaped our politics and determined the course of American public policy. The result has been a system that perpetually concentrates wealth in the hands of a few, while depleting the natural resources on which economies are based. 
   
   
   
  While the history of economics is dismal indeed, Erickson is part of a vigorous reform effort grounded in the realities of life on a finite planet. This new brand of economics is both gaining steam in academia and supporting social activism. The goal is people over profit, community over consumption, and resilience over recklessness. Erickson shows crafting a new economic story is the first step toward turning away from endless growth and towards enduring prosperity.

  Love Your Mother - 50 States 50...

  From elder voices opposing the Dakota Pipeline to young people running for office to advocate for change, every day we see real-life stories about how women are making a collective difference on climate justice. Women are also disproportionately impacted by climate change and thus are critical to transforming society away from dependence on fossil fuels and toward renewable energy and environmental equity. 
   
   
   
  As a mother and a professor of environmental education, Mallory McDuff wanted to give her two daughters and her students a roadmap to engage in climate justice in their communities, rather than be left feeling paralyzed by the enormity of the problem. She set out to find women of diverse ages, backgrounds, and vocations—one from each of the fifty US states—as inspiration for a new kind of leadership focused on the heart of the climate crisis. Love Your Mother lifts up the stories of these women working toward a viable future, from farmer and rancher Donna Kilpatrick in Arkansas to writer Latria Graham in South Carolina. 
   
   
   
  From Alabama to Alaska, from Wisconsin to Wyoming, these women are poets, physicians, climate scientists, students, farmers, writers, documentary filmmakers, and more. Their work lights the way for conversation and collective action in our homes and in the world. It's time we follow their lead.
