Jamie Glick’s evocative biography cuts through decades of tabloid noise to explore the fascinating intersection of an unyielding monarchy, modern celebrity, and the radical empathy that redefined the British Crown forever. Witness the breathtaking journey of a woman who lost her royal title, only to build an unassailable legacy as a true queen in people's hearts.

Stop building throwaway AI demos and ship something people can actually use. In this book, you’ll evolve a Python quiz engine from a clean CLI into a production-style app with structured AI output, validation, storage, PDF export, and a Django web interface. If you love practical architecture, smart automation, and turning raw model output into reliable software, this project is pure catnip.

Read it once—and you’ll start seeing opportunities everywhere.

Some operating systems ask you to trust them. OpenBSD earns it. I've spent my career in the trenches of information security — hardening systems, closing attack surfaces, and building infrastructure that doesn't apologize for being locked down. OpenBSD didn't just become my tool of choice. It became my standard. The OpenBSD Engineer's Handbook is what I wish someone had handed me years ago: a no-nonsense, engineer-first guide to one of the most secure and thoughtfully designed operating systems on the planet. Not a quick-start. Not a wiki dump. A real handbook — the kind you reach for when things get serious. Inside, you'll find everything from pf firewall design and privilege separation to production-grade networking, secure development workflows, and the operational discipline that separates good systems from bulletproof ones. If you're done with security theater and ready to build something that actually holds — this is your book.
