Download or read book An Elegant Puzzle written by Will Larson and published by Stripe Press. This book was released on 2019-05-20 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A human-centric guide to solving complex problems in engineering management, from sizing teams to handling technical debt. There’s a saying that people don’t leave companies, they leave managers. Management is a key part of any organization, yet the discipline is often self-taught and unstructured. Getting to the good solutions for complex management challenges can make the difference between fulfillment and frustration for teams—and, ultimately, between the success and failure of companies. Will Larson’s An Elegant Puzzle focuses on the particular challenges of engineering management—from sizing teams to handling technical debt to performing succession planning—and provides a path to the good solutions. Drawing from his experience at Digg, Uber, and Stripe, Larson has developed a thoughtful approach to engineering management for leaders of all levels at companies of all sizes. An Elegant Puzzle balances structured principles and human-centric thinking to help any leader create more effective and rewarding organizations for engineers to thrive in.
Book Synopsis Puzzling the Reader by : Gregg A. Hecimovich
Download or read book Puzzling the Reader written by Gregg A. Hecimovich and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2008 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Puzzling the Reader establishes the place of charms and riddles in nineteenth-century British literature by exploring the literary and political work riddles performed at cultural thresholds: courtship, initiation, death rituals, moments of greeting, and intercultural relations. Furthermore, Puzzling the Reader investigates the new narrative genre that riddles uncover by transforming traditional narrative techniques. Far from disappearing from view, the oral tradition of the riddles rises into view alongside the literary narratives of William Blake, John Keats, and Charles Dickens. The folk tradition of the riddle is imported into print media and reaches its zenith in the nineteenth century. Through analyses of riddles in weekly literature and satire magazines, parlor game books, and popular collected riddles, such as Queen Victoria's «Windsor Enigma», this volume examines the literary and political roles riddles play as they migrate into mass print culture. Three crucial texts illustrate this argument: Blake's «Jerusalem», Keats's «The Eve of St. Agnes», and Dickens's Our Mutual Friend. Each is a work of formal experimentation and each typifies the full range of word play in the period. From Blake to Keats to Dickens, nineteenth-century British literature charts a «history» of the literary riddle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlocking the Secrets of the Puzzle Box &break;&break;Have you ever thought inside the box? These band-sawn boxes could be the most intriguing and fun projects you've ever made. &break;&break;Author Jeff Vollmer describes his boxes as key-and-slide–cut a dovetail key, cut a slider piece, cut another key, cut another slider. That's the puzzle or "combination" you use to get to the chamber or heart of the box. &break;&break;Then you cut out the guts of the box to create a chamber. But wait, there's more! Then you cut another box from the guts, then another box or drawer from those pieces, then another and maybe another until things get too small to handle safely. &break;&break;Any type wood can be used to make these boxes–wood with holes, cracks, splits, insect and wormholes, spalting and burls. Jeff calls these flaws "opportunities" to become creative. &break;&break;Please note that the digital version of this book does not include the accompanying DVD.
Book Synopsis Solving the Benefits Puzzle by : Jed Simms
Download or read book Solving the Benefits Puzzle written by Jed Simms and published by Project-Sponsor. This book was released on 2006 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For years organisations have struggled to effectively track and measure the benefits expected from their projects. Management is frustrated at the continuing lack of benefits measurement.But the situation is worse than just poor measurement. Most projects actually leave many of their potential benefits 'on the table' unidentified. They then, inadvertently, lose, destroy or miss many other benefits. Our research has shown that most projects deliver less than half of their potential value. This loss represents billions of dollars a year in lost or missed benefits! Most of this loss goes unmeasured. Traditional approaches to benefits management just haven't worked. They seem workable on paper but, when put to the test, do not effectively identify, quantify, track and measure benefits both during and after the project.The reasons why benefits management has remained a 'lost cause' for so long are numerous, including lack of attention, desires to avoid accountability, confusion, sloppy language and the bad results of previous half-baked attempts.Solving the Benefits Puzzle spells out the problems and the solution. A solution that has already been adopted in numerous organisations with astounding success. The solution is based on the deceptively simple Benefits EquationTM that focuses attention on the five key elements of benefits management and allows all of them to be tracked and measured.

Book Synopsis Self-Deception's Puzzles and Processes by : Jason Kido Lopez
Download or read book Self-Deception's Puzzles and Processes written by Jason Kido Lopez and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2016-08-16 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contemporary literature on self-deception was born out of Jean-Paul Sartre’s work on bad faith—lying to oneself. As time has progressed, the conception of self-deception has moved further and further away from Sartre’s conception of bad faith. In Self-Deception’s Puzzles and Processes: A Return to a Sartrean View, Jason Kido Lopez argues that this departure is a mistake and that we should return to thinking about self-deception in a Sartrean fashion, in which we are self-deceived when we intentionally use the strategies and methods of interpersonal deception on ourselves. Since literally tricking ourselves cannot work—we will always see through our own self-deception, after all—self-deception merely consists of the attempt to trick ourselves in this way. Other scholars have rejected this notion of self-deception historically, dismissing it as paradoxical. Lopez argues first that it isn’t paradoxical, and he further suggests that moving away from this notion of self-deception has caused the contemporary literature on the topic to be littered with disparate and conflicting theories. Indeed, there are a great many ways to avoid the allegedly paradoxical Sartrean notion of self-deception, and the resulting plethora of accounts lead to a fragmented picture of self-deception. If, however, the Sartrean view isn’t paradoxical, then there was no need for the host of contradictory theories and most researchers on self-deception have missed what was originally so intriguing about self-deception: that it, like bad faith, is the process of literally trying to trick oneself into believing what is false or unwarranted. Self-Deception’s Puzzles and Processes will be of great interest to students and scholars of epistemology, philosophy of mind, psychology, and continental philosophy, and to anyone else interested in the problems of self-deception.
