Before you can begin utilizing Python to assume control over your programming needs, it is critical to begin getting familiar with it and the entirety of the extraordinary advantages you will get when utilizing this program. Python is an elevated level programming instrument, which implies that it is anything but difficult to utilize and peruse, even as a learner. The way of thinking behind the code is coherence and it has a sort of linguistic structure that enables the software engineer to express their ideas without having pages of code alongside it.

The word “hacking” has preconceived connotations, and most people don't quite grasp the whole concept that goes into the process of hacking. Hackers have a notorious reputation. But there’s a side of hacking that most people aren’t aware of: ethical hacking. You don't hear about the ethical hacking in the news, but there are people out there with the same job description fighting the malicious hackers daily, and they get the bad rep.

Publisher's summary
Wireless connectivity is an amazing and empowering technology. It allows people to access data and be in touch with others in a way which was impossible until recently. Whether we are are accomplishing financial transactions, reading books, listening to podcasts, or listing merchandise for e-commerce, wireless connectivity is a critical link in nearly all of our usage of the internet. For too many people, wireless broadband is a limiting and frustrating link which does not perform well enough, because the radio signals are too far and weak. This book offers ways to enjoy Wi-Fi signals and connect over longer distances.
Extend your Wi-Fi distance and enjoy better broadband with the antenna projects and smart usage tips in this book. It lays out how to build Wi-Fi parabolic prime and linear focus antennas, which the author has used, to have long distance Wi-Fi connections. Not only are large dish antennas covered, but less cumbersome Wi-Fi yagi and helical antennas are included, which can reach access points far across your neighborhood and beyond. The book gives step by step examples for modifying Wi-Fi dongles and connecting them to external antennas.
Many other guides advocate simply using a bigger antenna on a USB Wi-Fi dongle. In this book, the author suggests using the new breed of single board computers to transform the Wi-Fi into an ethernet link. These can be run for longer distances, from one's rooftop down to the basement or other places where Wi-Fi could not reach.
The essence of this book is antenna building. It talks about the various kinds of antennas, how they can help extend Wi-Fi speed and distance, and how to build them with typical workshop tools. If you can measure, cut, work with screws and bolts, and solder, then you can build Wi-Fi antennas. Whether you are using classic 2.6 GHz wireless networking or the newer 5 or 6 GHz Wi-Fi 6, there are things you can do to assure you are getting maximum range and data throughput.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Technical knowledge alone isn't enough - increase your software development income by leveling up your soft skills Early in his software developer career, John Sonmez discovered that technical knowledge alone isn't enough to break through to the next income level - developers need "soft skills" like the ability to learn new technologies just in time, communicate clearly with management and consulting clients, negotiate a fair hourly rate, and unite teammates and coworkers in working toward a common goal.

Story
In Glow Kids, Dr. Nicholas Kardaras will examine how technology - more specifically, age-inappropriate screen tech, with all of its glowing ubiquity - has profoundly affected the brains of an entire generation. Brain imaging research is showing that stimulating glowing screens are as dopaminergic (dopamine activating) to the brain’s pleasure center as sex. And a growing mountain of clinical research correlates screen tech with disorders like ADHD, addiction, anxiety, depression, increased aggression, and even psychosis.

Story
The grid is an accident of history and of culture, in no way intrinsic to how we produce, deliver and consume electrical power. Yet this is the system the United States ended up with, a jerry-built structure now so rickety and near collapse that a strong wind or a hot day can bring it to a grinding halt. The grid is now under threat from a new source: renewable and variable energy, which puts stress on its logics as much as its components.

Story
In April 1956, a refitted oil tanker carried 58 shipping containers from Newark to Houston. From that modest beginning, container shipping developed into a huge industry that made the boom in global trade possible. The Box tells the dramatic story of the container's creation, the decade of struggle before it was widely adopted, and the sweeping economic consequences of the sharp fall in transportation costs that containerization brought about.

Story
Artificial intelligence does the seemingly impossible - driving cars, trading stocks, and teaching children. But facing the sea change that AI will bring can be paralyzing. How should companies set strategies, governments design policies, and people plan their lives for a world so different from what we know? In Prediction Machines, three eminent economists recast the rise of AI as a drop in the cost of prediction. With this single, masterful stroke, they lift the curtain on the AI-is-magic hype and show how basic tools from economics provide clarity about the AI revolution and a basis for action by CEOs, managers, policy makers, investors, and entrepreneurs.

Based on hundreds of interviews with current and former Uber employees, along with previously unpublished documents, Super Pumped is a pause-resisting story of ambition and deception, obscene wealth, and bad behavior, that explores how blistering technological and financial innovation culminated in one of the most catastrophic 12-month periods in American corporate history.

That source turned out to be the 29-year-old NSA contractor Edward Snowden, and his revelations about the agency’s widespread, systemic overreach proved to be some of the most explosive and consequential news in recent history, triggering a fierce debate over national security....

Story
Could history repeat itself, with one giant entity taking control of American information? Most consider the Internet Age to be a moment of unprecedented freedom in communications and culture. But as Tim Wu shows, each major new medium, from telephone to cable, arrived on a similar wave of idealistic optimism only to become, eventually, the object of industrial consolidation profoundly affecting how Americans communicate.
