Jt's Conversations on True Basic: Becoming Acquainted with Basic Through Windows (2nd Edition)
by ChircoThis book started as a collection of lecture notes created for the Rutgers course 198:110 during the spring and fall of 1987. This course was, and still is, a course that introduces students to computers--culminating in a few intense weeks of learning to program in BASIC. While this publication does not contain the complete series of notes, it has a very focused purpose--concentrating on the Macintosh computer and the True BASIC programming language.
Judge This: The Terrorist's Son, The Mathematics Of Love, The Art Of Stillness, The Future Of Architecture, Beyond Measure, Judge This, How We'll Live On Mars, Why We Work, The Laws Of Medicine, And Follow Your Gut (TED Books)
by Chip KiddA fun, playful look at the importance of first impressions--in design and in life--from acclaimed book designer Chip Kidd.First impressions are everything. They dictate whether something stands out, how we engage with it, whether we buy it, and how we feel. In Judge This, renowned designer Chip Kidd takes us through his day as he takes in first impressions of all kinds. We follow this visual journey as Kidd encounters and engages with everyday design, breaking down the good, the bad, the absurd, and the brilliant as only someone with a critical, trained eye can. From the design of your morning paper to the subway ticket machine to the books you browse to the smartphone you use to the packaging for the chocolate bar you buy as an afternoon treat, Kidd reveals the hidden secrets behind each of the design choices, with a healthy dose of humor, expertise, and of course, judgment as he goes. Judge This is a design love story, exposing the often invisible beauty and betrayal in simple design choices--ones most of us never even think to notice. And with each object, Kidd proves that first impressions, whether we realize it or not, have a huge impact on the way we perceive the world.
Judgement-Proof Robots and Artificial Intelligence: A Comparative Law and Economics Approach
by Mitja KovačThis book addresses the role of public policy in regulating the autonomous artificial intelligence and related civil liability for damage caused by the robots (and any form of artificial intelligence). It is a very timely book, focusing on the consequences of judgment proofness of autonomous decision-making on tort law, risk and safety regulation, and the incentives stemming from these. This book is extremely important as regulatory endeavours concerning AI are in their infancy at most, whereas the industry’s development is continuing in a strong way. It is an important scientific contribution that will bring scientific objectivity to a, to date, very one-sided academic treatment of legal scholarship on AI.

Juegos y videojuegos: Un escape interactivo de la monotonía... (¿Cómo...? #95)
by Owen Jones¿Por qué a la gente le gusta jugar? Bueno, muchos millones de profesionales y padres preocupados se han estado haciendo esta misma pregunta durante al menos cincuenta años. Cuando los videojuegos comenzaron en los años setenta, la mayoría de la gente los veía como un poco de diversión, pero a medida que la locura se afianzaba, incluso en esa década, los intelectuales y educadores comenzaron a llamarlo “una estúpida distracción” y a los jugadores “tontos”. Esto continuó hasta hace relativamente poco tiempo, y se escribieron millones de palabras despectivas sobre los videojuegos y los jugadores. Sin embargo, la marea ahora está cambiando, y los ‘expertos’ están pontificando sobre los aspectos positivos de los juegos para los jugadores… incluso para los más jóvenes. Mientras este debate se arremolinaba a su alrededor, los jugadores seguían con lo que más les gustaba hacer: jugar videojuegos. Mucho se ha escrito acerca de por qué los juegos conquistaron a la juventud de los setenta y por qué ahora, a personas de todas las edades les encanta jugar. A algunos les gusta el juego de roles, a otros les gusta la asunción de riesgos virtuales y a otros les gusta perfeccionar habilidades que normalmente no usarían. Algunos incluso sueñan con unirse a las delgadas filas de los jugadores de élite millonarios. Sea cual sea el motivo, ¡que disfrutes mucho tiempo de tu afición y que la Fuerza te acompañe! La información en este libro electrónico sobre varios tipos de juegos, video, computadora, arcade y temas relacionados está organizada en 16 capítulos de aproximadamente 500 a 600 palabras cada uno. Como beneficio adicional, le doy permiso para utilizar el contenido en su propio sitio web o en sus propios blogs y boletines, aunque es mejor si primero los vuelve a escribir con sus propias palabras.
