Sinopsis

Sea Gales Bend explores the science of surviving ocean storms, focusing on the surprising power of body positioning and understanding wave dynamics. It reveals how proactive techniques, combined with meteorological forecasting, can significantly improve survival rates during increasingly frequent and severe coastal storms. For example, understanding how waves interact with solid surfaces is paramount in mitigating wave impact. 

 
The book synthesizes traditional maritime knowledge with modern scientific analysis, offering actionable strategies for coastal residents, emergency responders, and recreational water users.  It progresses from the fundamentals of wave formation and storm surge to specific body positioning strategies, case studies of storm survival, and the integration of meteorological forecasting. This approach connects human biomechanics with fluid dynamics, providing readers with a practical guide to coastal safety and climate change adaptation.

    Virtual Reality, often abbreviated as VR, is a groundbreaking technology that enables users to immerse themselves in computer-generated environments that feel remarkably real. Unlike traditional media, which presents information on a flat screen, VR creates a three-dimensional space where users can look around, move, and sometimes even interact with digital elements as if they were physically present. This sense of immersion is what sets VR apart and makes it such a powerful and transformative tool. 
    The concept of virtual reality has existed for decades, with its roots stretching back to the 1960s. Early prototypes like the Sensorama and the first head-mounted displays laid the groundwork for what would eventually become modern VR systems. Over the years, technological advancements in computing power, display quality, motion tracking, and software development have allowed VR to evolve from a niche curiosity into a versatile tool with applications across numerous industries. The introduction of consumer-grade headsets in the 2010s, such as the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive, marked a turning point in accessibility and interest in VR experiences. 
    A complete VR system typically consists of several key components. At the core is the headset, which provides stereoscopic visuals and often includes built-in motion sensors to track head movements. Many headsets are paired with hand controllers, allowing users to interact with objects or navigate virtual environments more naturally. Some systems incorporate additional accessories like haptic gloves, treadmills, or external sensors to enhance realism and expand the user’s range of motion. Software is equally important, as it governs the design of virtual spaces, the behavior of virtual elements, and the overall user experience.

    A playful and provocative exploration of queer single parenting and love, in conversation with an AI algorithm and a toddler 
     
     
     
    My Child, the Algorithm describes encounters between a single parent, a curious, verbal toddler, and a language-producing algorithm. Like a male seahorse, Hannah Silva carried a baby made from her partner's egg. But when she gave birth, her partner left, and Hannah found herself navigating life alone with her child, surviving on United Kingdom universal credit, humor, and buckets of imagination. 
     
     
     
    As she navigates friendship, dating, and life as a queer parent in London, Hannah begins cowriting with an open-source language model, a precursor to ChatGPT, feeding the algorithm language and receiving language in return. Through her interactions with her toddler and the algorithm, expressions of humor, play, and insight begin to emerge. With the help and disruption of these unreliable narrators, Hannah deconstructs her story and constructs a new one, unraveling what she has been taught to want, finding alternative ways of thinking, loving, and parenting today.

    “When today’s technology relies on yesterday’s data, it will simply mirror our past mistakes and biases.” 
    AI and other high-tech tools embed and reinforce America’s history of prejudice and exclusion — even when they are used with the best intentions. Patrick K. Lin’s Machine See, Machine Do: How Technology Mirrors Bias in Our Criminal Justice System takes a deep and thorough look into the use of technology in the criminal justice system, and investigates the instances of coded bias present at every level. 
    In this book, you’ll learn how algorithms and high-tech tools are used in unexpected ways: suggesting which neighborhoods to police, predicting whether someone is more or less likely to commit a crime, and determining how long someone’s prison sentence should be. 
    Machine See, Machine Do takes you on an eye-opening journey of discovery, encouraging you to think twice about our current system of justice and the technology that supposedly makes it more “objective” and “fair.” If you are someone who cares deeply about criminal justice reform, is curious about the role of technology in our day-to-day lives, and ultimately believes we should aspire to make both of these spaces more ethical and safe, this book is for you.
