In the twentieth century, wealth and power was dictated by access to oil. This century will have different kingmakers, perhaps different wars. We depend on a handful of metals and rare earths to power our phones and computers. Increasingly, we rely on them to power our cars and our homes. Whoever controls these finite commodities will become rich beyond imagining. Sanderson journeys to meet the characters, companies, and nations scrambling for the new resources.

Noch nie waren sich Mensch und Maschine so nah wie heute. Algorithmen denken für uns. Maschinen retten unser Leben. Roboter machen unsere Arbeit. Und der Mensch? Der muss aufpassen, dass er den Überblick behält. Denn nie zuvor hat das Netz unsere Gesellschaft so demokratisch und gleichzeitig so kompliziert gemacht. Dennis Kogel spricht für den Podcast "VICE - Radio Motherboard" mit Menschen, die die Welt von morgen bauen. Denn Technik kann unsere Welt verbessern, verunsichern, verändern. Mit "VICE - Radio Motherboard" verlieren Sie den Anschluss nicht.

Was wäre, wenn ein heftiger Sonnensturm die Erde trifft und alle Handynetze ausfallen? Wenn Antibiotika nicht mehr helfen, weil alle Keime resistent sind? Oder was wäre, wenn Künstliche Intelligenz uns Menschen ersetzt? Es gibt globale Bedrohungen, die ziemlich unheimlich klingen, aber leider realistisch sind. Im Original Podcast "Rein hypothetisch" spielt der Erzähler Oliver Schmaering diese Szenarien durch und zeigt mögliche Auswege. Auf dass am Ende alles gut wird.

Numbers. Like the alphabet, they’re one of the most elementary of concepts learned and memorized at a young age; but outside of figuring out tips and taxes, you probably haven’t given much thought to them since then. To a mathematician, every number has its own unique properties and personality - and when studied, played with, and manipulated, numbers can actually be tons of fun.

Lean UX is synonymous with modern product design and development. In the third edition of this award-winning book, authors Jeff Gothelf and Josh Seiden help you focus on the product experience rather than deliverables.

And you'll discover how to drive your design in short, iterative cycles to assess what works best for businesses and users. Lean UX guides you through this change - for the better.

The future will be better than you think. Thriving shows how innovation can regenerate nature, society, and the economy by taking us from degradation to restoration of ecosystems, from depletion to renewal of resources, from disparity to responsibility in communities, from disease to revitalization of health, from disconnection to rewiring through technology, and from disruption to resilience of infrastructure and institutions.

In 1978, in the tailwind of the golden age of air travel, flight attendants were the epitome of glamor and sophistication. Fresh out of college and hungry to experience the world―and maybe, one day, write about it―Ann Hood joined their ranks. After a grueling job search, Hood survived TWA’s rigorous Breech Training Academy and learned to evacuate seven kinds of aircraft, deliver a baby, mix proper cocktails, administer oxygen, and stay calm no matter what the situation.

En Futureproof: 9 reglas para los humanos en la era de la automatización, Kevin Roose rechaza la creencia popular de que para competir con las máquinas tenemos que parecernos a ellas: hipereficientes, basadas en datos, caballos de batalla al servicio del código. En su lugar, sostiene que debemos dejar a las máquinas ser máquinas y enfocarnos en hacer las actividades creativas, inspiradoras y con sentido que nos distinguen como seres humanos.

Ti sei mai chiesto quanto può essere invasivo, fastidioso e penetrante un rumore protratto nel tempo? La sensazione che si prova è un misto di rabbia, amarezza e malessere. Pensa che qualche volta sembra di sentirlo anche quando non c'è e la cosa peggiore è che non si riesce ad averne il controllo. Magari non ci hai mai pensato prima, ma questa esposizione continua a danneggiare l'equilibrio degli individui e li porta dritti all'ansia. La soluzione? È senza dubbio l'insonorizzazione, a patto però di trovare qualcuno di esperienza a cui affidarsi totalmente.

Because of the diseases it spreads, we have learned to distance ourselves from our waste, but the long line of engineering marvels we’ve created to do so - from Roman sewage systems and medieval latrines to the immense, computerized treatment plants we use today - has also done considerable damage to the Earth’s ecology. Now scientists tell us: We’ve been wasting our waste.

"Obéissance et irresponsabilité, voilà les deux Mots Magiques qui ouvriront demain le Paradis de la Civilisation des Machines. La civilisation française, héritière de la civilisation hellénique, a travaillé pendant des siècles pour former des hommes libres, c'est-à-dire pleinement responsables de leurs actes : la France refuse d'entrer dans le Paradis des Robots."

Design has become the key link between users and today’s complex and rapidly evolving digital experiences, and designers are starting to be included in strategic conversations about the products and services that enterprises ultimately deliver.

In the aftermath of an asteroid impact, Earth’s power grid is damaged nearly beyond recovery. The survival of our world may well depend on energy sources collected from an abandoned undersea settlement beneath the icy surface of Enceladus. Earth-raised Colonel Carter Rhodes, in charge of Earth’s recovery efforts, calls upon Gwen Baré, a Venusian engineer, to regain control of the deserted moon outpost and collect fuel for Earth’s collapsing power grids.
