instruction qui vous guidera à travers les principaux outils d'IA générative et vous apprendra les techniques pour les utiliser efficacement, notamment le "prompt engineering", l'art de communiquer avec l'IA pour obtenir les meilleurs résultats.

The gap between "wanting to build an app" and actually shipping one has never been smaller. While everyone talks about AI, the real winners are using next-generation tools like Cursor AI, Claude Code, and Google Antigravity to ship products at lightning speed. Build In Public is your complete 60-day roadmap from idea to launched, monetized application—even if you've never coded before. Written by Michael Patterson, an AI engineer leading 120+ developers at a Fortune 500 company, this isn't theory. It's a proven playbook for modern indie hackers and solopreneurs.

In a world where every click, search, login, and app leaves behind a digital trail, protecting your privacy is no longer optional — it is essential. Protect Your Privacy Online is a clear, practical, and accessible guide that helps everyday internet users understand how digital footprints are created, where personal data is collected, and how to take back control of their online identity without needing advanced technical knowledge.

Many believe that discoveries arise by chance or serendipity. The Engine of Scientific Discovery illustrates, for the first time, how we can actively speed up the pace of new breakthroughs by developing better methods and tools of discovery which enable us to see and think in entirely new ways. New tools are the lenses through which we discover what we often did not even know existed: improved microscopes uncovered microorganisms and viruses, x-ray methods exposed the structure of DNA, particle accelerators detected subatomic particles, and advanced telescopes revealed galaxies.

You have a choice: You can spend years filming yourself, fighting burnout, and praying for the algorithm to notice you. Or, you can build a faceless YouTube channel that generates passive income while you sleep, leveraging the newest wave of AI tools like Veo 3, Kling, and n8n. The rules of video marketing have changed. You no longer need a $5,000 camera, a studio, or even your own voice. You just need a system.

"May prove to be the most important book of our time.”—Tim Urban, Wait But Why The scramble to create superhuman AI has put us on the path to extinction—but it’s not too late to change course, as two of the field’s earliest researchers explain in this clarion call for humanity. In 2023...

It’s a signal paradox of our times that we live in an information society but do not know how it works. And without understanding how our information is stored, used, and protected, we are vulnerable to having it exploited. In Fancy Bear Goes Phishing, Scott J. Shapiro draws on his popular Yale University class about hacking to expose the secrets of the digital age. With lucidity and wit, he establishes that cybercrime has less to do with defective programming than with the faulty wiring of our psyches and society.

We live in the age of disinformation - of organized deception. Spy agencies pour vast resources into hacking, leaking, and forging data, often with the goal of weakening the very foundation of liberal democracy: trust in facts. Thomas Rid, a renowned expert on technology and national security, was one of the first to sound the alarm, even before the 2016 election. But this is not new. The story of modern disinformation begins with the clash between communism and capitalism after the Russian Revolution.

Social Engineering: The Science of Human Hacking reveals the craftier side of the hacker's repertoire - why hack into something when you could just ask for access? Undetectable by firewalls and antivirus software, social engineering relies on human fault to gain access to sensitive spaces; in this book, renowned expert Christopher Hadnagy explains the most commonly used techniques that fool even the most robust security personnel and reveals how these techniques have been used in the past.

Confused about AI and worried about what it means for your future and the future of the world? You're not alone. AI is everywhere—and few things are surrounded by so much hype, misinformation, and misunderstanding. In AI Snake Oil, computer scientists Arvind Narayanan and Sayash Kapoor cut through the confusion to give you an essential understanding of how AI works, why it often doesn't, where it might be useful or harmful, and when you should suspect that companies are using AI hype to sell AI snake oil—products that don't work, and probably never will.

Accelerate your productivity and automate your tasks in less than a week, even if you've never used AI before! Does the thought of integrating AI into your daily routine feel overwhelming? Are you tired of wasting hours on repetitive tasks that drain your energy and time? Do you wish there was a way to boost your productivity without breaking the bank on expensive software or learning complex coding? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, you're not alone.

In the newly revised ninth edition of CompTIA Security+ Study Guide: Exam SY0-701, veteran cybersecurity professionals and educators Mike Chapple and David Seidl deliver easy-to-follow coverage of the security fundamentals tested by the challenging CompTIA SY0-701 exam. You'll explore general security concepts, threats, vulnerabilities, mitigations, security architecture and operations, as well as security program management and oversight.

The #1 New York Times bestseller from David McCullough, two-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize—the dramatic story-behind-the-story about the courageous brothers who taught the world how to fly—Wilbur and Orville Wright. On a winter day in 1903, in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, two...

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.

How can we apply technology to drive business value? For years we've been told that the performance of software delivery teams doesn't matter - that it can't provide a competitive advantage to our companies. Through four years of groundbreaking research to include data collected from the State of DevOps reports conducted with Puppet, Dr. Nicole Forsgren, Jez Humble, and Gene Kim set out to find a way to measure software delivery performance - and what drives it - using rigorous statistical methods.

In this absorbing and frequently contentious book, Roger Penrose puts forward his view that there are some facets of human thinking that can never be emulated by a machine. The book's central concern is what philosophers call the "mind-body problem". Penrose examines what physics and mathematics can tell us about how the mind works, what they can't, and what we need to know to understand the physical processes of consciousness.

For a physicist, all the world is information. The universe and its workings are the ebb and flow of information. We are all transient patterns of information, passing on the recipe for our basic forms to future generations using a four-letter digital code called DNA. In this engaging and mind-stretching account, Vlatko Vedral considers some of the deepest questions about the universe and considers the implications of interpreting it in terms of information.

Superagency offers a roadmap for using AI inclusively and adaptively to improve our lives and create positive change. While acknowledging challenges like disinformation and potential job changes, the book focuses on AI’s immense potential to increase individual agency and create better outcomes for society as a whole. Imagine AI tutors personalizing education for each child, researchers rapidly discovering cures for diseases like Alzheimer's and cancer, and AI advisors empowering people to navigate complex systems and achieve their goals.

What if human cloning isn’t a modern discovery, but an ancient technology rediscovered? Long before modern science, civilisations like the Sumerians and the Anunnaki may have practiced genetic manipulation, creating humanity as engineered slaves for labour and obedience, not children of gods. Myths like Adam and Eve and divine bloodlines could be encoded records of this lost history. Occultists like John Dee weren’t just dabbling in magic, they sought to create life, continuing a hidden tradition of cloning.
