Internet a prawo - jak się nie potknąć? Poradnik dla twórców
Tomasz Palak
Jak nie wywalić się o paragraf Jeżeli jesteś aktywny online, szczególnie jeśli zarabiasz w świecie wirtualnym, musisz być czujny. I świadomy tego, co wolno, a czego absolutnie nie można robić z cudzym dziełem. Niektóre kwestie są oczywiste: nie należy kopiować, posługiwać się bez zgody właściciela jego znakiem towarowym, obrażać. To wiadomo. Inne rzeczy, pozostające na granicy prawa i bezprawia, a notorycznie zdarzające się w sieci, nie są już tak jasne. Bo czy wolno na przykład przerobić udostępnione przez kogoś zdjęcie na mem? Czy można wyprzedzić właściciela popularnego nazwiska i zarejestrować sobie pod nim domenę internetową? Albo czy dopuszczalne jest linkowanie wszystkiego z dowolnej strony WWW? Tomasz Palak, radca prawny, bloger i entuzjasta e-świata, uważa, że prawa w sieci najlepiej uczyć się na błędach. Oczywiście raczej cudzych niż własnych. W książce przytacza więc rozmaite historie, które przydarzyły się autentycznym osobom oraz markom i w błyskotliwy, a zarazem prosty do zrozumienia sposób wyjaśnia, kto popełnił błąd. Pisze, na czym on polega, i podpowiada, co zrobić, by tego błędu (a co za tym idzie - kłopotów i odszkodowania) uniknąć.
Internet możliwości. O tym, jak wypromować firmę i zarabiać więcej, pracując mniej
Weronika Modzelewska
Twoi klienci czekają na Ciebie w sieci. Czy wiesz, jak do nich dotrzeć? Nasze życie w dużym stopniu toczy się w internecie. Także interesy załatwiamy w sieci ― tu poszukujemy produktów i usług, opinii o nich i miejsc, w których możemy zaspokoić daną potrzebę. E-zakupy stają się codziennością. Przedsiębiorcy, świadomi preferencji zakupowych Polaków, dostosowują się do ich oczekiwań. Nowe sklepy on-line wyrastają jak grzyby po deszczu. Zbudować taki sklep można stosunkowo prosto, wystarczy skorzystać z ogólnie dostępnej technologii, gotowych szablonów i oprogramowania, a także pomocy doświadczonego informatyka. Gorzej z wypromowaniem tej działalności. Dlaczego ludzie mieliby odwiedzić nowe, nieznane im miejsce w sieci i zrobić zakupy u sprzedawcy, który nie ma jeszcze żadnych opinii w social mediach? Gdzie się ogłaszać w sieci? Jak wypromować e-sklep? Na których platformach internetowych warto działać? W jaki sposób zidentyfikować potencjalnych e-klientów i jak się uwiarygodnić w ich oczach? Odpowiedzi na te i inne pytania znajdziesz w książce Weroniki Modzelewskiej, która na co dzień działa jako @przystanekinternet i uczy, jak w social mediach pracować mniej, a zarabiać więcej.

Anyone who knows software development knows about the Java Virtual Machine. The Java Virtual Machine is responsible for interpreting Java byte code and translating it into actions. In the beginning, Java was the only programming language used for the JVM. But increasing complexity of the language and the remarkable performance of the JVM created an opening for a new generation of programming languages. If you want to build a strong foundation with the Java Virtual Machine and get started with popular modern programming languages, then this book is for you.The book will begin with a general introduction of the JVM and its features, which are common to the JVM languages, helping you get abreast with its concepts. It will then dive into explaining languages such as Java, Scala, Clojure, Kotlin, and Groovy and will show how to work with each language, their features, use cases, and pros and cons. By writing example projects in those languages and focusing on each language’s strong points, it will help you find the programming language that is most appropriate for your particular needs. By the end of the book, you will have written multiple programs that run on the Java Virtual Machine and know about the differences between the various languages.
