The Unlikely Success of a Copy-Paste Developer
Leo Larsson is a change-averse software developer with a forgettable presence and a life as bland and dry as Swedish crisp bread. Leo has three goals: keep a low profile, avoid customer support at all costs, and deal with an obsessed dentist with a curious and possibly abnormal fascination with Leo's teeth. Unfortunately, David, the spandex wearing know-it-all, mandates that everybody in the company, except architects, must provide customer support services. The unambitious Leo decides that if climbing the corporate ladder means avoiding daily human interaction, it's time to scale. If only Leo wasn't such a lazy developer with a plow-shaped smile.

The Signed Distance Measure in Fuzzy Statistical Analysis
The main focus of this book is on presenting advances in fuzzy statistics, and on proposing a methodology for testing hypotheses in the fuzzy environment based on the estimation of fuzzy confidence intervals, a context in which not only the data but also the hypotheses are considered to be fuzzy. The proposed method for estimating these intervals is based on the likelihood method and employs the bootstrap technique. A new metric generalizing the signed distance measure is also developed. In turn, the book presents two conceptually diverse applications in which defended intervals play a role: one is a novel methodology for evaluating linguistic questionnaires developed at the global and individual levels; the other is an extension of the multi-ways analysis of variance to the space of fuzzy sets. To illustrate these approaches, the book presents several empirical and simulation-based studies with synthetic and real data sets. In closing, it presents a coherent R package called "FuzzySTs" which covers all the previously mentioned concepts with full documentation and selected use cases. Given its scope, the book will be of interest to all researchers whose work involves advanced fuzzy statistical methods.

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Field Guide
Now updated for the 2024 Wave 1 release.A companion book for implementing Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. Targeted end-users, super-users and administrators, this book covers many of the challenges you're faced when implementing a cloud-based ERP system.From setting up the system and creating the first company to user customizations and integration. Business Central used to be Dynamics NAV and before that Navision. NAV has always been a partner-driven application. Customers buy the software from a partner, and the partner helps with implementation. A great model that has worked for over a million users across the globe. Now Business Central is a cloud offering; there's no longer an installation. You no longer need an IT guy to install it and then a consultant to help you set it up. You can do that yourself. Most customers still choose to get consultants to help to make sure you're doing it right and to ensure a great start. This book is written to help customers who venture into Business Central, with or without external help. Written to help understand the system and ensure a great experience starting with Business Central. The book is not written to be read from cover to cover. Instead, it's meant to be a Field Guide. A companion book to help you through the implementation. And later, when you need information on a specific topic or if you need a bit of inspiration. The documentation from Microsoft is pretty good, and I'll provide links for deep dives and background information. Business Central covers a vast area of functionality, and the book includes the areas and issues I encounter in my daily work with Business Central customers. I'll add new chapters and details based on my experience and reader feedback. I'm using an English language layer on my Business Central throughout this book.
