"Perfectly placed to tell us what's really new about [the] second-generation Web."― Los Angeles Times Business visionary and bestselling author David Weinberger charts how as business, politics, science, and media move online, the rules of the physical world―in which everything has a place―are upended. In the digital world, everything has its places, with transformative effects: • Information is now a social asset and should be made public, for anyone to link, organize, and make more valuable. • There's no such thing as "too much" information. More information gives people the hooks to find what they need. • Messiness is a digital virtue, leading to new ideas, efficiency, and social knowledge. • Authorities are less important than buddies. Rather than relying on businesses or reviews for product information, customers trust people like themselves. With the shift to digital music standing as the model for the future in virtually every industry, Everything Is Miscellaneous shows how anyone can reap rewards from the rise of digital knowledge.

The Web has not been hyped enough. That's the startling thesis of this one-of-a-kind book that's sure to become a classic work of social commentary. Just as Marshall McLuhan forever altered our view of broadcast media, Weinberger shows that the new medium of the Web is not only altering social institutions such as business and government but, more important, is transforming bedrock concepts of our culture such as space, time, the public, and even reality itself. Weinberger introduces us to denizens of this new world, among them Zannah, whose online diary turns self-revelation into play; Tim Bray, whose map of the Web reveals what's at the heart of the new Web space; and Danny Yee and Claudiu Popa, part of the new breed of Web experts we trust despite their lack of qualifications. Through stories of life on the Web, an insightful take on some familiar (and some unfamiliar) Web sites, and a wicked sense of humor, Weinberger puts the Web into the social and intellectual context we need to begin assessing its true impact on our lives. The irony, according to Weinberger, is that this new technology is more in tune with our authentic selves than is the modern world. Funny, provocative, and ultimately hopeful, Small Pieces Loosely Joined makes us look at the Web -- and at life -- in a new light. From Small Pieces Loosely The Web has sent a jolt through our culture, zapping our economy, our ideas about the sharing of creative works, and possibly even institutions such as religion and government. Why? How do we explain the lightning charge of the Web? If it has fallen short of our initial hopes and fears about its transformational powers, why did it excite those hopes and fears in the first place? Why did this technology hit our culture like a bolt from Zeus? Suppose -- just suppose -- that the Web is a new world we're just beginning to inhabit . . . If the Web is changing bedrock concepts such as space, matter, time, perfection, public, knowledge, and morality -- each a chapter of this book -- no wonder we're so damn confused. That's as it should be. The Web is enabling us to rediscover what we've always known about being we are connected creatures in a connected world about which we care passionately . . . If this is true, then for all of the over-heated, exaggerated, manic-depressive coverage of the Web, we'd have to conclude that the Web in fact has not been hyped enough.

We used to know how to know. We got our answers from books or experts. We'd nail down the facts and move on. But in the Internet age, knowledge has moved onto networks. There's more knowledge than ever, of course, but it's different. Topics have no boundaries, and nobody agrees on anything.Yet this is the greatest time in history to be a knowledge seeker ... if you know how. In Too Big to Know, Internet philosopher David Weinberger shows how business, science, education, and the government are learning to use networked knowledge to understand more than ever and to make smarter decisions than they could when they had to rely on mere books and experts.This groundbreaking book shakes the foundations of our concept of knowledge, from the role of facts to the value of books and the authority of experts, providing a compelling vision of the future of knowledge in a connected world.

Artificial intelligence, big data, modern science, and the internet are all revealing a fundamental truth: The world is vastly more complex and unpredictable than we've allowed ourselves to see.Now that technology is enabling us to take advantage of all the chaos it's revealing, our understanding of how things happen is changing--and with it our deepest strategies for predicting, preparing for, and managing our world. This affects everything, from how we approach our everyday lives to how we make moral decisions and how we run our businesses.Take machine learning, which makes better predictions about weather, medical diagnoses, and product performance than we do--but often does so at the expense of our understanding of how it arrived at those predictions. While this can be dangerous, accepting it is also liberating, for it enables us to harness the complexity of an immense amount of data around us. We are also turning to strategies that avoid anticipating the future altogether, such as A/B testing, Minimum Viable Products, open platforms, and user-modifiable video games. We even take for granted that a simple hashtag can organize unplanned, leaderless movements such as #MeToo.Through stories from history, business, and technology, philosopher and technologist David Weinberger finds the unifying truths lying below the surface of the tools we take for granted--and a future in which our best strategy often requires holding back from anticipating and instead creating as many possibilities as we can. The book’s imperative for business and beyond is simple: Make. More. Future.The result is a world no longer focused on limitations but optimized for possibilities.

A boy can get awfully confused when he wins $100,000,000 in a state lottery...and can't tell anyone about it.

Doc Searls e David Weinberger, autori nel 1999 del Cluetrain Manifesto insieme a Christopher Locke e Rick Levine, danno nuovamente voce al Popolo della Rete, affinché chi abbia smarrito la via dell'Open Internet possa aprire gli occhi sui pericoli che minacciano il futuro del Web e agire di conseguenza. Queste Nuove Tesi (New Clues) sono una profezia sul futuro del Web, scritta con toni appassionati e visionari. Riuscirà il Popolo della Rete ad attraversare un deserto popolato di orde di predoni, per entrare nella terra dell'Open Internet? Il futuro del Web dipende anche da te.

Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Elektrotechnik, 1, Hochschule Mittweida (FH) (Elektro- und Informationstechnik), Deutsch, Diese Bachelorarbeit soll die Grundlage für hochbeschleunigte Zuverlässigkeitstests auf Waferebene unter Verwendung von In-Situ-Heizelementen aus polykristallinem Silizium bilden. Nach einer Einführung in die Zuverlässigkeitstheorie wird eine Auswahl an Zuverlässigkeitstest vorgestellt. Diese sind momentan, durch den Einsatz von Hot-Chuck's, noch recht zeitaufwändig und verlangen daher nach einer alternativen Wärmequelle. Der in dieser Arbeit vorgestellte Ausweg beschreibt einen Polysilizium-Widerstand direkt in der zu beheizenden Struktur. Weiterhin wird die Wärmeausbreitung durch thermische Simulationen dargestellt. Am Ende dieser Arbeit wird noch die mögliche Temperaturmessung an solchen Teststrukturen vorgestellt.

Projektarbeit aus dem Jahr 2018 im Fachbereich BWL - Offline-Marketing und Online-Marketing, 1,3, Hochschule Mittweida (FH), Deutsch, Mode gilt als "der phantastische Ausbruch aus dem Alltag, Attraktivität und Lebenslust." Mode spiegelt den Menschen und seine wahren Wünsche wider, in ihr kann sich der Mensch ausleben und nach außen zeigen, wer er ist und wofür er steht. Menschen hatten schon immer unterschiedliche Geschmäcker und vor allem was die Bekleidung angeht, gibt es unendlich viele Meinungen und folglich verschiedene Richtung innerhalb der Mode. In den letzten Jahren fiel beim Betrachten der Fashion-Weeks auf, dass immer mehr und mehr Labels Einflüsse aus Streetwear in ihre Kollektionen einfließen lassen. Sei es der Jogginganzug bei Gucci, der übergroße Sweater von Balenciaga oder die Bauchtaschen von Fendi, so ziemlich alle Kreativdirektor der Labels lassen sich von der Straße inspirieren. Es scheint, als hätten alle Labels die gleiche Inspirationsquelle genutzt und dennoch könnten die Kollektionen unterschiedlicher nicht sein. Selbst das etwas eingestaubte und als altbacken geltende französische Luxuslabel Louis Vuitton kollaborierte mit dem US-amerikanischen Streetwear-Riesen Supreme.

God's way of teaching our children is time intensive. There are no shortcuts, no way to substitute a few minutes of "quality" time to replace "quantity" time. Yet God's way, of being with our children almost all the time, brings out true joy in child-rearing. This autobiographical book tells of one family's experiences in attempting to follow this Deuteronomy 6 pattern.

Set in the hallways of an imaginary conference on philosophy and nuclear war, Nuclear Dialogues presents conversations on a wide range of arms race issues in a variety of philosophical styles and from a variety of standpoints. Among the Do philosophers have anything unique to contribute? What does it mean to be against nuclear weapons? How sexist are attitudes towards peace activism? Does the policy of deterrence involve making threats, and when is it morally O.K. to make threats? Is the policy a form of hostage-taking? Does the same morality bind nations and individuals? Is it literally insane to plan a nuclear war? Is it wrong to let emotions influence moral judgments? Can lives be the subject of calculation? How important is the nuclear issue? What is peace and what are ways of working towards it? Nuclear Dialogues is accessible to those with no philosophic training and is a useful text for courses on the arms race and international relations.
