Summary

Say goodbye to tedious tasks! GitHub Actions is a powerful workflow engine that automates everything in the GitHub ecosystem, letting you focus on what matters most.
This book explains the GitHub Actions workflow syntax, the different kinds of actions, and how GitHub-hosted and self-hosted workflow runners work. You’ll get tips on how to author and debug GitHub Actions and workflows with Visual Studio Code (VS Code), run them locally, and leverage the power of GitHub Copilot. The book uses hands-on examples to walk you through real-world use cases that will help you automate the entire release process. You’ll cover everything, from automating the generation of release notes to building and testing your software and deploying securely to Azure, Amazon Web Services (AWS), or Google Cloud using OpenID Connect (OIDC), secrets, variables, environments, and approval checks.
The book goes beyond CI/CD by demonstrating recipes to execute IssueOps and automate other repetitive tasks using the GitHub CLI, GitHub APIs and SDKs, and GitHub Token. You’ll learn how to build your own actions and reusable workflows to share building blocks with the community or within your organization.
By the end of this GitHub book, you'll have gained the skills you need to automate tasks and work with remarkable efficiency and agility.

    Fire and flood, train wreck and tornado—a look at the many disasters Chicago has endured over the years. 
     
     
      
    The story of Chicago is often likened to that of a phoenix rising out of the ashes of the Great Fire. Yet that infamous event was only part of the destruction that has shaped Chicago's identity. 
     
     
      
    This unique history explores the calamities that have befallen the Windy City, such as the 1954 killer water surge that swept in on a calm summer day; the 1967 tornado that ripped through rush hour traffic; the 1886 Haymarket Square riot that put Chicago on the anarchist map; and many other acts of nature and human folly. As you witness a fireproof theater burn, a flood rise up without rain, and one of the greatest maritime disasters occur within city limits, you'll gain a new appreciation for how this city has endured through unexpected tragedies and produced many unlikely heroes.

    Every time someone tells you a star is forty trillion kilometres away, the number slides right off. You want to feel how big space is, and the figures keep getting in the way.
    
    This audiobook walks you outward one step at a time, starting at your own front door and ending at the edge of the observable universe. Each chapter shrinks the cosmos to something you can picture, so the Sun becomes a beach ball on the table, Earth a peppercorn across the room, and our whole galaxy fits on a dinner plate. After every leap you hear a short explanation of how astronomers actually measured it, then a quick recap before the next step out.
    
    By the last chapter the distances hold together in your head, and the size of the universe feels like a place you belong to rather than a void that shrinks you. Press play and let the room grow.

    The traditional security perimeter is dead. For decades, organizations relied on a so-called castle-and-moat strategy—protecting the network boundary and then trusting everyone inside. But in today's world of cloud computing, remote work, and sophisticated cyber threats, blind trust is a dangerous vulnerability. 
     
    This audiobook delivers a comprehensive blueprint for shifting to a Zero Trust architecture. The core principle is simple: Never trust, always verify. By continuously validating every user, device, and transaction, you can protect your critical data from modern threats. 
     
    It is time to move past outdated defenses and build a resilient security infrastructure that actively safeguards your organization's digital future.
