Synopsis

Linux, a revolutionary operating system, stands as a testament to the power of open-source software. Linux Code Community explores how this freely available system, born from a student project, achieved global prominence through its unique development model. The book dives into the decentralized contribution patterns and meritocratic governance that have fueled Linux's success since 1991, questioning how its massive complexity is managed without traditional hierarchies.

 
One intriguing aspect examined is the surprisingly effective role of Linus Torvalds as a "benevolent dictator," guiding the project while fostering community involvement. The book details the collaborative environment of kernel development, analyzing the roles of individual developers, corporate contributors, and maintainers. By analyzing commit logs and mailing list archives, it reveals the dynamics of collaboration within the Linux community.

 
It also addresses the broader implications of open-source principles for software engineering and project management, making it valuable for those seeking to adopt these methodologies. The book progresses from the historical context of Linux's emergence to the core concepts of open-source licensing, and then to the analysis of code contribution patterns and governance models.

    A spellbinding exploration of the human capacity to imagine the future  
     
    Our ability to think about the future is one of the most powerful tools at our disposal. In The Invention of Tomorrow, cognitive scientists Thomas Suddendorf, Jonathan Redshaw, and Adam Bulley argue that its emergence transformed humans from unremarkable primates to creatures that hold the destiny of the planet in their hands.  
     
    Drawing on their own cutting-edge research, the authors break down the science of foresight, showing us where it comes from, how it works, and how it made our world. Journeying through biology, psychology, history, and culture, they show that thinking ahead is at the heart of human nature—even if we often get it terribly wrong. Incisive and expansive, The Invention of Tomorrow offers a fresh perspective on the human tale that shows how our species clawed its way to control the future.

    This book chronicles the creation of Everglades National Park, the largest subtropical wilderness in the United States. Prior to the park's creation, the Everglades was seen as a reviled and useless swamp, unfit for typical recreational or development projects. 
     
     
     
    Park advocates drew on new ideas concerning the value of biota and ecology, the importance of wilderness, and the need to protect habitats, marine ecosystems, and plant life to redefine the Everglades. Using these ideas, the Everglades began to be recognized as an ecologically valuable and fragile wetland—and thus a region in need of protective status. 
     
     
     
    While these new ideas foreshadowed the later emergence of modern environmentalism, tourism and the economic desires of Florida's business and political elites also impacted the park's future. These groups saw the Everglades' unique biology and ecology as a foundation on which to build a tourism empire. 
     
     
     
    Yet, even after the park's creation, conservative landowners successfully fought to limit the park and saw it as a threat to their own economic freedoms. The battle to save the swamp's biodiversity continues, and Everglades Park stands at the center of ongoing restoration efforts.

    Most organisations are oblivious to, or terrified about, web accessibility.
    You may be aware that 20% of your customers – people with disabilities – could be clicking away from your websites or mobile apps every day, without having bought anything or found the information they needed. You may have received complaints about accessibility problems you don't understand, with people asking for what seem like impossible fixes. Your web teams may have read the industry standard WCAG guidelines, but found them impenetrable. You probably know you could be sued if you don't do the right thing, but you don't know how far you need to go to prevent that. And apart from eliminating risk, what else is in it for your organisation?
    In this audiobook, award-winning international accessibility thought-leader Jonathan Hassell shows you how to transform your organisation to consistently and cost-efficiently create websites, mobile apps and other digital products that are usable for all of your customers.
