            <p><p> Essential knowledge of steel-framed structure design is a cornerstone for architectural, civil, and structural engineers, as well as for students planning careers in structural design and construction. <em>Structural Steel Design, Fourth Edition</em> delivers a comprehensive understanding of structural steel design, starting with the fundamentals and progressing to the design of a complete structural system. It emphasizes not just the individual steel elements or components but their integration within the broader context of the entire structure. </p> <p> By working through the chapters and corresponding design project tasks, readers will complete the design of a full steel structure, allowing them to grasp the connections between discrete components and the larger system. This approach reinforces the importance of seeing the "big picture" in structural design. </p> <p> Encouraged by the American Institute for Steel Construction, this book goes beyond traditional textbook exercises by offering real-world examples, project-based exercises, and open-ended problems that challenge the reader to make decisions and navigate the iterative nature of structural design. Practical details and real-world end-of-chapter problems reflect the types of challenges encountered in professional engineering practice, making this text not just an academic resource but a practical guide for aspiring engineers. </p></p>

            <p><p><b>Discover why AI changes engineering by moving attention from code output to durable decisions, safer boundaries, and shared understanding</b></p><h4>Key Features</h4><ul><li>Apply context engineering to control what AI coding agents see and produce</li><li>Replace subjective code review with mechanical gates and executable acceptance criteria</li><li>Design and coordinate multi-agent workflows that close the build-test-deploy loop reliably</li></ul><h4>Book Description</h4>The advent of AI coding agents has triggered an identity crisis in tech. But the core of software engineering was never just about writing syntax. It is about solving problems, defining constraints, and translating business reality into scalable software solutions. Beyond Code is the practitioner's survival guide to the new landscape of software development, teaching you how to stop competing with the machine and start directing it.
The book covers the forces that determine whether AI assistance produces reliable software: context discipline, which shapes what agents see and what they ignore; mechanical gates, which replace advice-based review with verifiable pass-fail conditions; and loop closure, which keeps multi-agent coordination from drifting off-mission through Goodhart traps and proxy decay. You will work through input design, information filtering, decomposition as constraint topology, hierarchical agent coordination, and multi-pass thinking for output verification.
By the end of this book, you will be able to manage the information environment your AI agents operate within, enforce the constraint structures that keep them aligned, and build multi-agent workflows that close the build-test-deploy loop without fragile handoffs or compounding failures.<h4>What you will learn</h4><ul><li>Engineer context to control what AI coding agents produce</li><li>Filter irrelevant information that degrades model output quality</li><li>Use decomposition to create verifiable, independently testable seams</li><li>Replace code review opinions with executable mechanical gates</li><li>Identify and escape Goodhart traps in developer metrics and evals</li><li>Coordinate AI agents hierarchically to reduce overhead and drift</li><li>Apply multi-pass thinking to catch failures before they compound</li><li>Translate software decisions into terms that align engineering teams</li></ul><h4>Who this book is for</h4><p>This book is for developers, software engineers, tech leads, engineering managers, and architects who want to stay effective as code generation becomes a default part of the development workflow. It is particularly useful for those who have started using AI coding tools in production and are noticing where the outputs break down in system coherence, review quality, or team alignment. Readers should have experience building, reviewing, or leading software projects. </p></p>

            <p><p><b>Run capable AI models locally with Ollama and connect them to Python. Manage models, build a stateful chatbot, process images with multimodal LLMs, and choose configurations that fit your hardware and privacy needs.</b></p><h4>Key Features</h4><ul><li>Local-first coverage connects Ollama commands, Python integration, chat, and multimodal AI</li><li>Practical context explains why hardware, privacy, speed, and model size shape local choices</li><li>Complete projects show how conversation memory and image analysis produce useful outputs well</li></ul><h4>Book Description</h4>Local AI can improve privacy and reduce reliance on cloud inference, but hardware and performance constraints require informed choices. The opening material explains these trade-offs and guides installation on macOS, Windows, or WSL, followed by the commands used to pull, run, list, switch, and remove models.

The practical journey connects Ollama to Python and moves beyond simple prompts. Readers send images to a multimodal model, build a chatbot that retains conversation history, and create an application that scans image folders and records structured catalog details in CSV format. Model selection remains tied to available hardware and expected speed.

By the end of this guide, readers can manage a local model library and build useful private AI applications. Complete project files make it easier to adapt the chatbot and multimodal workflow to personal experiments or new Python projects.<h4>What you will learn</h4><ul><li>Install Ollama on macOS, Windows, or WSL</li><li>Manage local models with Ollama commands</li><li>Connect Ollama to Python applications</li><li>Build a chatbot with conversation memory</li><li>Process images with a multimodal model</li><li>Select models for available hardware</li></ul><h4>Who this book is for</h4><p>Python users, developers, and technical learners who want greater privacy, lower ongoing inference costs, and hands-on experience with local AI. No prior AI application development is required, although basic Python familiarity will help with the chatbot and multimodal image cataloging projects.</p></p>

            <p><p><b>See how attackers exploit hardware, wireless connections, and peripheral devices. Practice penetration testing, red teaming, awareness training, and defensive countermeasures for real systems.</b></p><h4>Key Features</h4><ul><li>Hardware attack scenarios expose USB, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, RFID, and wired LAN system weaknesses</li><li>Security awareness methods connect technical vulnerabilities with safer workplace behavior</li><li>Defensive guidance pairs practical pentest devices with analysis and suitable countermeasures</li></ul><h4>Book Description</h4>Hardware can create an attack surface even when software controls appear strong. The opening chapters frame penetration testing and red teaming from the attacker's perspective, explain how vulnerabilities are identified, and use practical test scenarios to show how simple devices can compromise infrastructure.

Attention then shifts to the human layer of defense. Readers examine security awareness training, successful teaching methods, and realistic exercises that help teams recognize suspicious devices and unsafe behavior. This emphasis connects technical findings with repeatable procedures that reduce exposure before an incident occurs.

Need a modal, a dropdown, dark mode, smooth scrolling, or form validation? Most frontend developers reach for JavaScript without thinking twice. But the platform has changed.
This book shows how much modern HTML and CSS can already do on their own. Through practical examples, you will learn how to build real interface patterns with less code, fewer dependencies, and a stronger focus on accessibility, performance, and maintainability.
You will explore features such as :has(), native dialogs, accordions, sliders, counters, dark mode, smooth scrolling, form validation, border animations, view transitions, motion paths, and mask effects. The book also introduces newer browser features like popovers, anchor positioning, scroll-driven animations, customizable selects, and CSS carousels.
The goal is not to avoid JavaScript at all costs. It is to use it when it actually adds value, and not by default. By the end of the book, you will have a clearer sense of what the platform can handle today and how to build interfaces that are lighter, cleaner, and more resilient.<h4>What you will learn</h4><ul><li>Apply the Rule of Least Power in real UI decisions</li><li>Choose modern HTML and CSS over JS where it's sufficient</li><li>Build lightweight, accessible interfaces in practice</li><li>Use modern CSS features like :has(), view transitions, motion paths, masks, popovers, and anchor positioning</li><li>Create UI patterns like dark mode, dialogs, accordions, smooth scrolling, custom selects, and carousels</li><li>Implement progressive enhancement in real projects</li><li>Improve performance by reducing unnecessary JS</li></ul><h4>Who this book is for</h4><p>This book is for people who build interfaces and want to rely less on JavaScript when they do not have to. It is aimed at front-end developers, designers who code, and curious CSS people who already know the basics and want to see how far modern HTML and CSS can really go. If you have ever added JavaScript out of habit for something the browser can already handle, this book will give you a different way to think about that.</p></p>

Free with your book: DRM-free PDF version + access to Packt's next-gen Reader*</b></p><h4>Key Features</h4><ul><li>Apply SOLID principles and proven design patterns in Godot 4</li><li>Build scalable game architecture using components, events, and services</li><li>Refactor prototypes into maintainable, production-ready projects</li></ul><h4>Book Description</h4>Many Godot projects start as quick prototypes but become difficult to maintain as they grow. Deep node hierarchies, tightly coupled scripts, and expanding gameplay systems can slow development and make it harder to add features, fix bugs, and ship with confidence. Godot 4 Best Practices addresses those challenges by focusing on architectural practices that help projects stay scalable and maintainable.
You’ll start by applying the SOLID principles to Godot’s node and script model, learning when to choose scenes or scripts, how to keep hierarchies shallow, and when data-driven Resources are a better fit than extra nodes.
