I did not enable DRM on any of the Encyclopædia Moronica volumes when I created them in Amazon KDP, so you should be able to grab the ebook and convert it to whatever you want.
In fact, I have vague memories of setting up a free book promotion on Amazon... Yeah, looks like I did (LPT: don't set up book promotions while tired and mostly inebriated). Volume I is up on Amazon for free this week. So - if you want - grab it from Amazon for free, and see if Calibre will convert it to your preferred format. If not, well, nothing lost.
I see this referenced all the time. I haven't finished it myself, but from what I've read it's great.
$10 if you get the kindle version. https://www.amazon.com/Think-Like-Manager-CISSP-Exam-ebook/dp/B08D9L1BTF/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1619647039&sr=8-2
Listen to what jjacquinta has to say, he literally wrote the book on developing Alexa skills.

I didn't have a programming background before university and I did fast-food jobs to support myself while studying so I didn't have a chance to work in internships or get relevant exp. Was ashamed of my blue-collar background and being a few years older than my peers who already were at a better level than me. I had a bad case of imposter syndrome.
I recommend this book, which has helped me gain the confidence to apply for placement in my final year. https://www.amazon.com/Foot-Door-Getting-Industry-Programmer-ebook/dp/B0813XNFNF . Its pretty short and only $3.24 on Kindle. Well worth reading.
I'm sorry to read that your preparation was not enough, or perhaps you entered the exam with the wrong mindset? The positive side is that at least you know what to expect next time, so you will enter the room with less emotions. Have you thought how to approach this exam differently next time? Perhaps this book might be useful for you: https://www.amazon.com/Think-Like-Manager-CISSP-Exam-ebook/dp/B08D9L1BTF
I came across some positive comments around it but myself didn't have enough time to go through.
Good luck, don't lose hope. You are one step away from it, just requires a bit of different thinking and luck. Yes luck. As many say there comes a point where you just gamble, myself I gambled at least 20% of the time. I was not sure at all. I picked two answers which made more sense to me and gambled.
Free today and tomorrow (Thanksgiving)
Foot in the Door: My Self-Taught Journey Becoming a Software Developer
Want to break into the tech industry? Don't have a computer science degree? About four years ago I was in your very shoes. I graduated college with an art degree and quickly realized that "professional artist" was not going to be a viable career path. Design seemed like a possible alternative, but I also found I did not enjoy working directly with clients.
What I did know was that I loved games ever since I was a little girl and I loved to build things and show them off. I applied to some entry level software developer positions, but nobody called me back. I knew I needed more training, a portfolio, connections, something more.
In this book you will learn:
- How to adopt the programmers mindset to tackle difficult coding challenges
- Strategies to help figure out the best coding resources for you
- What kinds of problems you are likely to face at different stages of your journey,
- How to calibrate your bullshit detector to avoid abusive managers
- Ways to solidify your knowledge by teaching and mentoring others
- Coping with imposter syndrome and transition anxiety
- Options for learning to code with limited time at your disposal
Here is an informative ebook perfect for BI beginners, The Ultimate Guide to Cleaning Data with Excel & Google Sheets. Or get it free at www.inzata.com
Nothing helps accelerate and improve a decision-making process like clean data. Updated & accurate data supports analytics and business intelligence, which in turn provides organizations with the proper information for better decision-making and execution.
Thanks for the advice! I'm still new to bash scripting and can make use of that. The "put your then's and do's on the same line as your for's and if's and while's" for example makes a lot of sense, coming to think about it.
Also, in #bash they told me the same thing about variables: Only systemwide variables like EDITOR or PATH should be uppercase, else lowercase. Guess Jason Cannon's "Shell Scripting" was wrong about that. ;)
Keeping my own index file is what I plan to do next. Again, the #bash elders advised something similiar: To keep all mp3s filenames in an array. That might hog some memory but it supposedly faster than searching the whole filesystem.
It's also pretty limited. The only non-progamming thing I use mine for is playing music and setting alarms. Programming wise, it's pretty challenging to get it to do much interesting. But if you like a challenge, it might amuse you for a while. There are a number of over-priced general user guides to the echo for sale on Amazon. The reviews of them have been pretty bad. I have a programming guide for sale up there ($0.99). You should be able to read it for free if you have Prime. It might, or might not, give you a better idea of it is worth it or not. http://www.amazon.com/How-Program-Amazon-Echo-Development-ebook/dp/B011J6AP26

It's really informative and has multiple walkthroughs (I reviewed it before release). That and it's free on Kindle.
Have you read this book: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005WTR4ZI/ref=kinw_myk_ro_title
It's a pretty good read, but shows some interesting data. I'm far from an economist, and I don't think that it prescribes a total loss of work in the near future, but I do think it makes a pretty good argument for things being a touch different this time around. It also show's that jobs have been steadily decreasing for some time now (more than even most people who peg it around '08).
While I don't know that the Dystopian outlook is the correct one, I'm not sure that I think things are going to be rosy unless we start having conversations (thankfully, much like this one).
Honestly it's a good quick read, and the one that got me to see things in a different light.
Awesome, thanks for sharing.
I'd love to read it, but I can't seem to view this on my android phone from The Netherlands (tried your suggested link http://www.amazon.nl/gp/product/B00RW6WKAI?*Version*=1&*entries*=0).
I've installed the App and pressed 'Buy now with 1-Click', but nothing happens.
:(
I don't usually buy ebooks from Amazon.
I've tried the uk link (have an account there), but it says "This title is not currently available for purchase".
Do you need to have a Kindle or something?
