The definitive text for machine design, covering stress, fatigue, shafts, bearings, and gears. The failure-theory and fatigue chapters remain the reference working engineers return to.
Art of Electronics (Horowitz & Hill)
Widely accepted as the best single volume for learning practical electronics. Teaches design intuition and real part selection rather than idealized circuit theory.

Professional bench oscilloscope with mixed-signal options and a high waveform update rate. Fast update rates are what let you actually catch intermittent glitches.
Hantek 6022BE
USB PC oscilloscope that trades performance for portability and a very low entry price. Adequate for slow signals and power-rail sanity checks, not for digital debugging.
Oracle Primavera P6
The standard for scheduling large scale engineering and construction programs. Handles resource-loaded critical path schedules with tens of thousands of activities.
Monday.com
Visual platform that lets teams manage tasks, projects and workflows. Board-driven rather than ticket-driven, which suits mixed engineering and business teams.
Linear
The issue tracker built for high-performance software teams, with cycles, projects, and triage. Keyboard-first design keeps the tracker out of the way of the work.
