Androids

The fascinating inside story of how the Android operating system came to be. In 2004, Android was two people who wanted to build camera software but couldn't get investors interested. Today, Android is a large team at Google, delivering an operating system (including camera software) to over 3 billion devices worldwide. This is the inside story, told by the people who made it happen. Androids: The Team that Built the Android Operating System is a first-hand chronological account of how the startup began, how the team came together, and how they all built an operating system from the kernel level to its applications and everything in between. It describes the tenuous beginnings of this ambitious project as a tiny startup, then as a small acquisition by Google that took on an industry with strong, entrenched competition. Author Chet Haase joined the Android team at Google in May 2010 and later recorded conversations with team members to preserve the early days of Android's history leading to the launch of 1.0. This engaging and accessible book captures the developers' stories in their own voices to answer the question: How did Android succeed?

Real problems require surreal solutions. This collection of essays explores life's problems from working to eating to relationships to parenting, and suggests solutions which, if not altogether sane, are at least funny. If we can't solve our problems, we can at least laugh at them. Or at ourselves. Or at others.

When I am King... this book will be required reading. Until then, consider it important background reading on future social policy. And an excellent beer coaster. With life comes life's many critical problems, such as: Why are wedding ceremonies so very long, often outlasting the marriages themselves? Why are we forced to celebrate wedding anniversaries, inevitably leading to stress, forgetfullness, guilt, anger, recriminations, and alimony? We're constantly making mistakes in life and have no one to blame but ourselves. Why can't we hire someone to take the blame? Why are women's showers so packed with bottles and substances that there's no room left for the people? Why aren't newborn babies clearly labeled with their sex to avoid awkward assumptions by strangers? Why are newborn stats reported in weight and length, like fish? Fortunately, this manifesto exists to deal with these and other pressing problems that we all face in work, relationships, parenting, eating, and life overall.

Do You Talk Funny?

Public speaking can be terrifying. For David Nihill, the idea of standing in front of an audience was scarier than cliff jumping into a thorny pit of spiders and mothers-in-law. Without a parachute or advanced weaponry. Something had to change. In what doesn't sound like the best plan ever, David decided to overcome his fears by pretending to be an accomplished comedian called "Irish Dave" for one full year, crashing as many comedy clubs, festivals, and shows as possible. One part of the plan was at least logical: he was already Irish and already called Dave. In one year, David went from being deathly afraid of public speaking to hosting a business conference, regularly performing stand-up c...
