  Real critique has become a lost skill among collaborative teams today. Critique is intended to help teams strengthen their designs, products, and services, rather than be used to assert authority or push agendas under the guise of "feedback." In this practical guide, authors Adam Connor and Aaron Irizarry teach you techniques, tools, and a framework for helping members of your design team give and receive critique. 
   
  Using firsthand stories and lessons from prominent figures in the design community, this book examines the good, the bad, and the ugly of feedback. You'll come away with tips, actionable insights, activities, and a cheat sheet for practicing critique as a part of your collaborative process. 
   
  This book covers: 
   
  Best practices (and anti-patterns) for giving and receiving critique 
  Cultural aspects that influence your ability to critique constructively 
  When, how much, and how often to use critique in the creative process 
  Facilitation techniques for making critiques timely and more effective 
  Strategies for dealing with difficult people and challenging situations

  The Cosmic Dance - How Dark...

  Long before we had names for them, the stars told us stories. They shimmered in the night sky, seemingly eternal, guiding ancient travelers and inspiring mythologies. But as science advanced, we discovered that what we saw was only part of the story. A vast, invisible component of the universe lurked beyond the reach of our eyes and instruments—a hidden mass that neither emitted nor reflected light. This was the beginning of our encounter with dark matter and dark energy. 
  In the early 20th century, astronomers began to notice something strange. When they looked at galaxies and observed how stars within them moved, they found that these stars were traveling at speeds that didn’t make sense. Based on the visible matter alone—the stars, gas, and dust—the galaxies should have been flying apart. There simply wasn’t enough gravitational pull to hold them together. Something unseen had to be providing the extra mass needed to bind them. 
  This mysterious substance was dubbed "dark matter." It didn't shine or absorb light, making it completely invisible to traditional telescopes. Yet its gravitational effects were undeniable. It was as if galaxies were embedded in massive halos of invisible material, holding them together with unseen hands. The concept was both unsettling and thrilling—it suggested that the universe was much stranger than we had ever imagined.

  Thanks to smartphones, war is everywhere, all the time. Anyone can view, analyze, and comment on photos, videos, or other warzone media. Where did this technology come from? And what does it mean for the future of war?This book explains why you see what you do on your phone, and how these devices shape our knowledge, conduct, and representation of war in the 2020s. It shows why smartphones are indispensable in peace and wartime: every device is a potential weapon, lines blur between war and daily life, and conflict becomes a shared digital experience. Social media platforms displace state-controlled narratives, amplifying violence and shaping war's legitimacy. Apps democratize conflict, enabling anyone to identify and attack perceived enemies. As the Ukraine war has shown, this new reality involves complex, unevenly distributed infrastructures, merging civilian communication with military targeting.With war accelerating beyond our comprehension, militaries have raced to benefit from and adapt to the smartphone age. Matthew Ford explores critical questions about today's hyper-connected battlefield.
