Getting Started with Gulp. Automating web development workflows - Second Edition

Travis Maynard

This book is a hands-on guide to get you up to speed with gulp. You will quickly learn how to install, configure, and run your own build system. It will instill you with the ability to automate several common development tasks to vastly improve your development workflow. This book first demonstrates various Gulp use cases before running through the steps of configuring, running, and customizing Gulp, providing you with core concepts of gulp, node.js, and npm. Diving a bit deeper into the gulp ecosystem, we will discuss when and why to use a node module instead of a gulp plugin. We will also go over a few issues that we can run into while using gulp and learn about ways to work around them to improve your gulp experience.By the end of this book, you will be able to create your very own gulp build from scratch, create and maintain tasks and project builds, and automate your workflow with plugins and custom tasks.

20 opowiadań

Anton Czechow

"20 opowiadań" to zbiór wspaniałych utworów autorstwa mistrza krótkiej formy, jakim był Anton Czechow. Opowiadania te ukazują carską Rosję w krzywym zwierciadle humoru podszytego ironią i sarkazmem. Poprzez zwięzłe, lecz niezwykle trafne i zabawne historie, autor wskazuje na największe bolączki, jakie gnębiły to wielkie państwo pod koniec dziewiętnastego wieku.

Poezje. Wybór

Jan Kasprowicz

Wybór wierszy zawiera około stu najpopularniejszych utworów lirycznych polskiego poety, dramaturga i krytyka literackiego okresu Młodej Polski. Twórczość Jana Kasprowicza podlegała licznym przemianom estetycznym i światopoglądowym. Poeta był związany ze wszystkimi głównymi nurtami ówczesnej liryki, przede wszystkim z naturalizmem, symbolizmem oraz ekspresjonizmem. Był również prekursorem nowoczesnego wiersza wolnego, katastrofizmu oraz szeregu tendencji prymitywistycznych we współczesnej sztuce. Różnorodność wątków i tematów, jakie podejmował w swych utworach Kasprowicz, stanowiła odbicie bezpośrednich doświadczeń życiowych autora. Był przy tym osobowością głęboko religijną. W każdej ze swoich stylistycznych odsłon poeta zachował właściwą sobie indywidualność stylu, której nie sposób porównywać ze stylem innych twórcy tego okresu.

Industrial Cybersecurity. Efficiently secure critical infrastructure systems

Pascal Ackerman

With industries expanding, cyber attacks have increased significantly. Understanding your control system’s vulnerabilities and learning techniques to defend critical infrastructure systems from cyber threats is increasingly important. With the help of real-world use cases, this book will teach you the methodologies and security measures necessary to protect critical infrastructure systems and will get you up to speed with identifying unique challenges.Industrial cybersecurity begins by introducing Industrial Control System (ICS) technology, including ICS architectures, communication media, and protocols. This is followed by a presentation on ICS (in) security. After presenting an ICS-related attack scenario, securing of the ICS is discussed, including topics such as network segmentation, defense-in-depth strategies, and protective solutions. Along with practical examples for protecting industrial control systems, this book details security assessments, risk management, and security program development. It also covers essential cybersecurity aspects, such as threat detection and access management. Topics related to endpoint hardening such as monitoring, updating, and anti-malware implementations are also discussed.

Wierna rzeka

Stefan Żeromski

Wierna rzeka opisuje okres powstania styczniowego. Po przegranej bitwie pod Małogoszczem do zrujnowanego majątku Niezdoły dociera ciężko ranny powstaniec, książę Józef Odrowąż. Tam zajmuje się nim córka zarządcy majątku Salomea Brynicka, która wraz ze swym wiernym sługą, starym Szczepanem, opatruje jego rany. Musi także przygotować bezpieczną kryjówkę na wypadek, gdyby do dworu przyszli Rosjanie. Salomea długo ukrywa powstańca i pielęgnuje go podczas choroby. Z czasem obdarza Odrowąża uczuciem wbrew przestrogom starego opiekuna Szczepana.

Implementing Cisco Networking Solutions. Configure, implement, and manage complex network designs

Harpreet Singh

Most enterprises use Cisco networking equipment to design and implement their networks. However, some networks outperform networks in other enterprises in terms of performance and meeting new business demands, because they were designed with a visionary approach.The book starts by describing the various stages in the network lifecycle and covers the plan, build, and operate phases. It covers topics that will help network engineers capture requirements, choose the right technology, design and implement the network, and finally manage and operate the network. It divides the overall network into its constituents depending upon functionality, and describe the technologies used and the design considerations for each functional area. The areas covered include the campus wired network, wireless access network, WAN choices, datacenter technologies, and security technologies. It also discusses the need to identify business-critical applications on the network, and how to prioritize these applications by deploying QoS on the network.Each topic provides the technology choices, and the scenario, involved in choosing each technology, and provides configuration guidelines for configuring and implementing solutions in enterprise networks.

Machine Learning for OpenCV. Intelligent image processing with Python

Michael Beyeler

Machine learning is no longer just a buzzword, it is all around us: from protecting your email, to automatically tagging friends in pictures, to predicting what movies you like. Computer vision is one of today's most exciting application fields of machine learning, with Deep Learning driving innovative systems such as self-driving cars and Google’s DeepMind.OpenCV lies at the intersection of these topics, providing a comprehensive open-source library for classic as well as state-of-the-art computer vision and machine learning algorithms. In combination with Python Anaconda, you will have access to all the open-source computing libraries you could possibly ask for.Machine learning for OpenCV begins by introducing you to the essential concepts of statistical learning, such as classification and regression. Once all the basics are covered, you will start exploring various algorithms such as decision trees, support vector machines, and Bayesian networks, and learn how to combine them with other OpenCV functionality. As the book progresses, so will your machine learning skills, until you are ready to take on today's hottest topic in the field: Deep Learning.By the end of this book, you will be ready to take on your own machine learning problems, either by building on the existing source code or developing your own algorithm from scratch!
