Propojuji IT s byznysem #

Pomáhám CTO, CEO a produktovým manažerům porozumět technologickým rozhodnutím — ne jako technický detail, ale jako strategická páka, která rozhoduje o rychlosti, nákladech a konkurenceschopnosti firmy.

Mám přes dvacet let zkušeností v IT, z toho velkou část v roli, kde jsem stál na hranici mezi technickým týmem a byznysem. Vím, jak fungují inženýři. Vím, co potřebují slyšet manažeři. A umím přeložit mezi těmito dvěma světy.

Michael Kerrisk’s The Linux Programming Interface is a definitive guide to Linux and UNIX system programming. Covering over 500 system calls and library functions with clear C examples, it provides a thorough exploration of topics like file I/O, process management, multithreading, interprocess communication, and network programming. The book balances Linux-specific features (e.g., epoll, inotify) with POSIX standards, making it valuable for both Linux and UNIX developers.
