  vvvYou are an Agile Coach and you have been retained by a small but successful start up company.  They have achieved positive cash flow and are starting to grow.  So far, so good! 
  The investors are pressuring the company leadership to adopt more formal procedures.  Specifically they would like the start up to submit a formal budget for the investors to approve. 
  You have been asked to teach and coach the company leadership how budgeting works in an Agile context. 
  What should you tell them? 
  This case and the others in the series come from the real-world experiences of a group of Scrum professionals who meet regularly to discuss the Scrum Framework and how to apply it to actual situations they have encountered.  These discussions have been led since 2015 by Frederik Mark Fowler, A Doctor of Scrum and Holder of the Professional Scrum Master level III certification awarded by Scrum.org.  Fred has worked with the Scrum Framework for almost 20 years and has trained more then 300 people to become Scrum Masters and Product Owners.

  How To Think About AI - A Guide...

  In recent years, there has been massive public and professional interest in Artificial Intelligence. But people are confused about what AI is, what it can and cannot do, what is yet to come, and whether AI is good or bad for humanity and civilization—whether it will provide solutions to mankind's major challenges or become our gravest existential threat. There is also confusion about how we should regulate AI and where we should draw moral boundaries on its use. 
   
   
   
  In How To Think About AI, Richard Susskind draws on his experience of working on AI since the early 1980s. For Susskind, balancing the benefits and threats of artificial intelligence is the defining challenge of our age. He explores the history of AI and possible scenarios for its future. His views on AI are not always conventional. He positions ChatGPT and generative AI as no more than the latest chapter in the ongoing story of AI and claims we are still at the foothills of developments. He argues that to think responsibly about the impact of AI requires us to look well beyond today's technologies, suggesting that not-yet-invented technologies will have far greater impact on us in the 2030s than the tools we have today. This leads Susskind to discuss the possibility of conscious machines, magnificent new AI-enabled virtual worlds, and the impact of AI on the evolution of biological humans.

  The Fate of the World

  Why past climate change tells us it's almost too late.  
  A warning and a rallying-cry. 
  'Read it and weep, or read it and win' Chris Packham 
  A global refugee crisis. Extreme storms. Agriculture devastated. Economic ruin. Societal collapse. These are not just possibilities but likely outcomes of our ongoing failure to stem greenhouse gas emissions — and in our lifetimes. This alarming book explains why. 
  The Fate of the World is a 4.6-billion-year history of the Earth, putting contemporary global heating in the context of geological epochs and periods to reveal what past climate change can tell us about our planet’s future. It highlights with unflinching realism how what’s happening now compares with what happened in deep time — and explains the devastating impacts that are now more likely than not. 
  Renowned expert Bill McGuire reveals that our climate already all but matches that of the last interglacial period — the Eemian — when sea levels were 6 to 9 metres higher, and that it is on track to mimic the Pliocene period, when giant camels roamed the Arctic, as soon as the 2030s. Later this century, parts of our world could be experiencing double-figure temperature rises as we continue to wind the clock back 50 million years in a couple of centuries — and without urgent preparation, our civilization is very poorly placed to survive. 
  Notwithstanding the urgency of the message, this is a hopeful book. The future will be forbidding, but every tonne of carbon we do not emit will make it less so. We can all do our bit, and we must. 
  If you read just one book on the climate crisis, make it this one. 
  FAILED TO RUN THIS ONE 
  For fans of Tim Marshall (Prisoners of Geography), David Wallace-Wells (The Uninhabitable Earth), Mark Maslin (Climate Change), Lawrence Maxwell Krauss (The Physics of Climate Change), and Mike Berners-Lee (A Climate of Truth).

  Quando l'audiolibro è donna: io...

  Questo è il primo di una serie di cinque piccoli volumetti sulla mia esperienza con gli audiolibri.Non si tratta di manualistica o del solito metodo miracoloso per far soldi, bensì di vita vissuta, di quello che si tocca con mano davvero e non in ipotesi in questo particolarissimo settore dell'editoria. Una sorta di "case history" a puntate o a episodi su audiolibri e podcast, ma da leggere. Possibilmente con un sorriso.  
  Valerio Di Stefano (1964) è filologo, linguista e ispanista. Siccome non sapeva cosa fare, quindici anni fa è penetrato nella gabbia degli audiolibri e non è più riuscito a uscirne, ma si sta già attrezzando. Come narratore ha pubblicato, tra gli altri, “La voce nel deserto”, “Malinverno”, “Confessione d’un amore fascista”, “La mossa del cavillo” e il recentissimo “Minchia, Signor Tenente!”. In realtà nella vita è padre di Adele Marie e ‘tato’ di Birba che gli ha regalato soltanto dodici cuccioli.
