Beschreibung

In "The Book of the Fly," George Hurlstone Hardy intricately weaves scientific insight with poetic reflection, exploring the multifaceted life of the fly. This work harmonizes keen observation and lyrical prose, providing readers with a blend of entomological detail and philosophical musings. Hardy's writing transcends a mere catalog of fly species; it invites readers to contemplate the ecological significance and the symbolic resonance of these small creatures within the broader narrative of life. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century natural history literature, the book reflects Hardy's deep admiration for nature and his commitment to capturing its essence through evocative language. Hardy, a British naturalist and writer, draws upon his extensive field studies and fascination with the natural world to compose this engaging volume. His background in both the sciences and humanities fuels a rich narrative style that integrates rigorous research with personal anecdotes. Hardy's childhood experiences of exploring the English countryside laid the foundation for his lifelong passion for entomology and the natural sciences, each page reflecting his unwavering curiosity and his desire to share it with a broader audience. I highly recommend "The Book of the Fly" to anyone intrigued by the delicate interplay of nature and literature. Hardy's exquisite blend of scientific rigor and artistic expression will not only enlighten avid entomologists but also captivate readers who appreciate the beauty of nature's intricate tapestry. This work stands as a testament to the extraordinary lives of often-overlooked creatures and invites thoughtful reflection on our relationship with the natural world.

    When Derek Yu released Spelunky for free in 2008, his roguelike-inspired platformer took the indie game community by storm with its combination of classic platform mechanics, extreme difficulty, and random level generation. Four years later, Spelunky's HD remake went on to become PC Gamer's Game of the Year and earn perfect scores from Polygon and Eurogamer. But how is a "perfect" game made? 
     
      
     
    Spelunky is Boss Fight's first autobiographical book: the story of a game's creation as told by its creator. Using his own game as a vehicle, Derek Yu discusses such wide-ranging topics as randomization, challenge, indifferent game worlds, player feedback, development team dynamics, and what's required to actually finish a game. Grab some ropes, a mattock, and your favorite pug—this book is going to dig deep.

    “Chaos magic offers a great deal of inspiration for creative freedom and innovation in magic, but it also outrages many people who liked to think of themselves as guardians of ancient traditions. This new book seems destined to do exactly the same for the next generation of magicians. Its publication may well prove a seminal moment in the history of magic.” —from the foreword by Peter J. Carroll   Magic workers have long used the tools at hand for crafting spells and rituals. AI technology has opened a new frontier for magic. Some of the most powerful tools at a magician’s fingertips today are computers and smart devices.  Magical AI Grimoire helps you to understand how to work with technology—creatively and ethically—in the practice of your magic. Whether you’re trying to use promptcraft to perfect a spell, ChatGPT to outline and strengthen a ritual, or generative image software to recreate what you’ve only seen on the astral plane, Davezilla is your guide.   Around the world, witches and magicians are finding that technology has a spiritual essence and a mind of its own. Witches and magicians have been using computers to organize sabbats and ceremonies since the early days of electronic communication. Astrology apps were some of the first applications written, and in most covens, it’s a good bet that one or more of the members work with computers. Davezilla provides context and history for the evolving uses of AI—from Alexa to Spotify to ChatGPT and beyond—and leads the pioneering, curious magician through a new magical realm with responsibility and clarity of insight.

    The last decade has seen an exponential increase in the development and adoption of language technologies, from personal assistants such as Siri and Alexa, through automatic translation, to chatbots like ChatGPT. Yet questions remain about what we stand to lose or gain when we rely on them in our everyday lives. As a non-native English speaker living in an English-speaking country, Vered Shwartz has experienced both amusing and frustrating moments using language technologies: from relying on inaccurate automatic translation, to failing to activate personal assistants with her foreign accent. English is the world's foremost go-to language for communication, and mastering it past the point of literal translation requires acquiring not only vocabulary and grammar rules, but also figurative language, cultural references, and nonverbal communication. Will language technologies aid us in the quest to master foreign languages and better understand one another, or will they make language learning obsolete?
