Follow the evolution of .NET web development from its early foundations to today’s modern ecosystem in the 4th edition of this book.

As the Cardano ecosystem expanded across tokens, DeFi protocols, and NFT markets, understanding real-time activity became increasingly complex. TapTools emerged to solve this challenge by aggregating fragmented market, wallet, and token data into a unified analytics platform designed for both everyday users and ecosystem builders. Now widely used for portfolio tracking, market observability, and developer integrations, TapTools demonstrates how structured funding and layered product development can transform data accessibility across a blockchain ecosystem. Part of the 12-part Catalyst Off-Chain Impact Series, this case study explores how analytics infrastructure, community engagement, and iterative platform expansion helped turn TapTools into a critical information layer for Cardano’s digital asset economy.

An AI-powered framework for predictive bug analysis and security auditing. BugHawk combines AST-based structural validation with transformer-based reasoning to detect vulnerabilities and improve software reliability.

Architecture. Teams. Business. Aligned. Finally, a guide that connects the dots. From Team Topologies to Flexible Project Management, learn how to build systems that align with your business goals instead of fighting against them. Stop estimating and start engineering your path to confidence.

A quiet, lived account of what remains when the search for meaning falls away.

Stress is unavoidable. Failure is part of the system. Resilient by Design shows how to recover faster, stay stable under pressure, and keep going when things hit hard, without burnout clichés or motivational noise.

This tiny book presents the theory of optimization for mathematical programming problems: the minimization of functions defined on Rn subject to a finite number of equality and inequality constraints.

Ready to explore AI but don’t know where to start?This book gives you 40 fun, practical, and totally beginner-friendly projects no coding, no tech jargon, just pure discovery. Your AI journey starts here.

Building generative AI application is not only about LLM choice and prompt engineering, but also about the well-architected cloud solution.

Imagine a group of LEGO superheroes facing missions that require planning in layers. One hero scouts the terrain. Another maps the risks. A third builds the route. All these steps connect. None of them works alone. This is Nested Learning in action.Google uses this layered thinking to help AI break problems into parts, solve those parts in sequence, and combine them into stronger results

Learn Generative AI the way software professionals think: as probabilities, algorithms, and systems—not magic. From foundations to RAG, agents, and MLOps, with math always optional but available.

 Your CEO asks for an estimate. Your engineer says "3 weeks." Your CEO responds "you have 3 days." Sound familiar? After 30 years managing engineering teams, I've learned that most estimation is pure waste—and the pressure to give "better estimates" destroys trust and team morale. This book reveals a counterintuitive truth: stop estimating so much. Only estimate when it directly drives decisions. Learn why software estimation is fractal (like measuring Britain's coastline), how to distinguish effort from duration, and why your team keeps "missing deadlines." Discover how to reframe engineering from a cost center (always fighting for budget) to a profit center (getting the resources you deserve). Written for CTOs and engineering leaders, this practical guide delivers immediately actionable frameworks based on real experience coaching dozens of technical leaders. No theory, no agile dogma—just honest advice on estimation that actually works.
