Computers'OK Google. Wat is het masterplan?' Een website met een zoekbalk en een vrolijk logo. Zo begon Google in 1998. Door onze honger naar kennis groeide een vriendelijke zoekmachine razendsnel uit tot een van de machtigste bedrijven ter wereld. Tegenwoordig gebruikt iedereen Google. Met Google Maps, Android, YouTube en Gmail. Via slimme apparaten, opslag in de cloud en nieuwe medicijnen. Advertenties zijn de brandstof waar het imperium op draait. Wat gebeurt er wanneer de Big Tech-gigant straks al zijn diensten en onze gebruikersdata aansluit op de nieuwste Artificial Intelligence (AI)? Die vraag legde IT-specialist Bob Hardus voor aan ex-Googlemedewerkers, programmeurs, beleidsmakers, hoogleraren, medici en visionairs. Zijn zoektocht leidde van Amsterdam naar Berlijn en van Parijs naar Breda en leverde inspirerende inzichten, maar ook verontrustende ontdekkingen op. Google blijkt al veel verder dan wij denken.

ComputersWe all like to think we're pretty savvy when it comes to using our Macs, and in the case of the typical Macworld reader, that's usually true. But there's a funny thing we've noticed when we talk even to veteran Mac users: There's almost always some essential stuff—basic things that would make their Mac use easier or more efficient—that they've either forgotten or never learned. So we got some Macworld editors and contributors together and asked: What are the things that every Mac user should know how to do? Not the really basic stuff—Command-C, Command-V, and so on—but the skills and knowledge that mark you as Mac-literate. After much pondering and discussion, we came up with a list of 100 items that fit the bill. Those skills run the gamut from startup to shutdown: they include smart ways to manage files and accounts, search, and customize your Mac. We'll bet that you already know many of them. But we'll also bet that you don't know them all. And if you can really

ComputersPrecies honderd keer schreef Jack Nouws een column in het blad MacFan. Over Apple en de Mac. Elke twee maanden een nieuw, scherp verhaal. In honderd columns tijd veranderde evenwel veel. Apple transformeerde van een niche-speler op de computermarkt tot het grootste bedrijf ter wereld. De wereld ging van offline naar online. Van floppies via cd’tjes en usb-sticks naar Dropbox. Steve Jobs kwam, Steve Jobs verdween, Steve Jobs kwam terug, Steve Jobs overleed. Van een tijd waarin e-mail iets nieuws was naar een tijd waarin alles via Facebook en Twitter loopt. Ooit was een groot plaatje downloaden al een klus, nu komt video in HD-kwaliteit streamend je huis binnen. Alles is veranderd. Honderd columns van Jack Nouws vormen een mooi tijdsbeeld van de afgelopen 17 jaar, zeker voor de toegewijde Apple- en Mac-fanaat. Een tijdsbeeld waar Jack vaak scherp en kritisch naar kijkt.

ComputersTwo years ago, we adapted a feature from Macworld into a book called 100 Things Every Mac User Should Know. The idea was to compile a bunch of tidbits—keyboard shortcuts, Finder techniques, and the like—that we thought every savvy Mac user should understand and feel confident about using: not ABC beginner stuff, and not truly esoteric expert-level maneuvers, but the kinds of things that mark you as experienced and informed. Of course, there are a lot more than 100 such things. So we decided to revisit the idea, coming up with another 100 pieces of Mac-related information we think users should have at their command. So, yes: You now have 200 things you need to know. As we said back in 2011: We’re sure you know a lot of the things we’ve listed here. But we bet that very, very few of you, if you’re really being honest, can say you know them all. Check them out, and let us know if we’re wrong.

Computers en internetFROM THE BBC REITH LECTURER 2021 'The most important book I have read in quite some time' Daniel Kahneman; 'A must-read' Max Tegmark; 'The book we've all been waiting for' Sam Harris Humans dream of super-intelligent machines. But what happens if we actually succeed? Creating superior intelligence would be the biggest event in human history. Unfortunately, according to the world's pre-eminent AI expert , it could also be the last. In this groundbreaking book, Stuart Russell sets out why he has come to consider his own discipline an existential threat to humanity, and how we can change course before it's too late. In brilliant and lucid prose, he explains how AI actually works and its enormous capacity to improve our lives - and why we must never lose control of machines more powerful than we are. Russell contends that we can avert the worst threats by reshaping the foundations of AI to guarantee that machines pursue our objectives, not theirs . Profound, urgent and visionary, Human Co

ComputersThe world's most infamous hacker offers an insider's view of the low-tech threats to high-tech security Kevin Mitnick's exploits as a cyber-desperado and fugitive form one of the most exhaustive FBI manhunts in history and have spawned dozens of articles, books, films, and documentaries. Since his release from federal prison, in 1998, Mitnick has turned his life around and established himself as one of the most sought-after computer security experts worldwide. Now, in The Art of Deception, the world's most notorious hacker gives new meaning to the old adage, "It takes a thief to catch a thief." Focusing on the human factors involved with information security, Mitnick explains why all the firewalls and encryption protocols in the world will never be enough to stop a savvy grifter intent on rifling a corporate database or an irate employee determined to crash a system. With the help of many fascinating true stories of successful attacks on business and government, he illustrates just ho

Computers en internetDescripción de esta era en la que, mediante la puesta en marcha de tecnologías de alta complejidad y altísimo riesgo, dejamos huellas en el mundo que exponen no solo a las poblaciones de hoy, sino a las generaciones futuras, de nuestra especie y de otras especies, en los próximos milenios. Chernóbil, la crisis financiera de 2008, los incendios en el Amazonas o la pandemia de coronavirus no son eventos aislados. Son "accidentes normales", síntomas del crecimiento y la destrucción acelerados, que, en menos de setenta años, transformaron nuestra vida y la del planeta para siempre. En Tecnoceno Flavia Costa delinea con sutileza la trama cultural y política de este mundoambiente alucinatorio cuya virtualidad se sostiene en una red material hecha de cables, satélites y edificios, por donde desfilan bioartistas, ciencia forense, organizaciones de derechos humanos, sistemas de vigilancia y empresarios transhumanistas.

Computers en internetEen fascinerend inkijkje in de hackerswereld In veel Hollywoodfilms verschijnt vroeg of laat een hacker. Er flitsen wat cijfers en letters over het beeldscherm, en voilà: daar is de geheime informatie die de beveiligingscamera’s uit kan zetten. Maar wat doen hackers nu eigenlijk echt? En hoe doen ze dat? Journalist Gerard Janssen kwam erachter dat ze dit niet zomaar vertellen. Maar als je wilt leren hacken, zullen hackers je altijd helpen. Janssen betrad de gesloten wereld van de hackers en ontdekte de rijke subcultuur van een even activistische als hechte gemeenschap, met één gemeenschappelijke strijd: die voor een open, vrij en veilig internet. Hackers is een intrigerend en razendspannend boek – over vrouwelijke hackers, de kwetsbaarheid van verkiezingsuitslagen en hoe drie Nederlanders het Twitteraccount van Trump hackten.
ComputersAll of my other books so far, have this sentence: “You should be comfortable with using Terminal on macOS.” This is the book that helps you get comfortable with Terminal and shell on macOS. The book covers the new default shell zsh, but also bash, on macOS versions up to and including macOS 11 Big Sur. This book will teach you to use Terminal and the shell on macOS. It starts with an introduction to the command line, the terminology, its history and concepts. Then we examine macOS, its file systems, and shells (sh, bash and zsh) in detail. We learn how to configure the Terminal application and zsh to work more productively. This is a great entry book for technical minded users new to the command line, but also a great reference for experienced users. While my experience as a Mac system administrator has certainly influenced the book, it is relevant for all users who need to or want to learn using Terminal and the shell, such as developers, scientists and “pro” users in general
ComputersA Turing Award-winning computer scientist and statistician shows how understanding causality has revolutionized science and will revolutionize artificial intelligence "Correlation is not causation." This mantra, chanted by scientists for more than a century, has led to a virtual prohibition on causal talk. Today, that taboo is dead. The causal revolution, instigated by Judea Pearl and his colleagues, has cut through a century of confusion and established causality -- the study of cause and effect -- on a firm scientific basis. His work explains how we can know easy things, like whether it was rain or a sprinkler that made a sidewalk wet; and how to answer hard questions, like whether a drug cured an illness. Pearl's work enables us to know not just whether one thing causes another: it lets us explore the world that is and the worlds that could have been. It shows us the essence of human thought and key to artificial intelligence. Anyone who wants to understand either needs The Book of
Computers“Bruce Schneier’s amazing book is the best overview of privacy and security ever written.”—Clay Shirky Your cell phone provider tracks your location and knows who’s with you. Your online and in-store purchasing patterns are recorded, and reveal if you're unemployed, sick, or pregnant. Your e-mails and texts expose your intimate and casual friends. Google knows what you’re thinking because it saves your private searches. Facebook can determine your sexual orientation without you ever mentioning it. The powers that surveil us do more than simply store this information. Corporations use surveillance to manipulate not only the news articles and advertisements we each see, but also the prices we’re offered. Governments use surveillance to discriminate, censor, chill free speech, and put people in danger worldwide. And both sides share this information with each other or, even worse, lose it to cybercriminals in huge data breaches. Much of this is voluntary: we cooperate with

ComputersThis book explains the concepts, history, and implementation of IT infrastructures. Although many of books can be found on each individual infrastructure building block, this is the first book to describe all of them: datacenters, servers, networks, storage, operating systems, and end user devices. The building blocks described in this book provide functionality, but they also provide the non-functional attributes performance, availability, and security. These attributes are explained on a conceptual level in separate chapters, and more specific in the chapters about each individual building block. Whether you need an introduction to infrastructure technologies, a refresher course, or a study guide for a computer science class, you will find that the presented building blocks and concepts provide a solid foundation for understanding the complexity of today’s IT infrastructures. This book can be used as part of IT architecture courses based on the IS 2010.4 curriculum.

ComputersTracy Kidder's "riveting" ( Washington Post ) story of one company's efforts to bring a new microcomputer to market won both the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award and has become essential reading for understanding the history of the American tech industry. Computers have changed since 1981, when The Soul of a New Machine first examined the culture of the computer revolution. What has not changed is the feverish pace of the high-tech industry, the go-for-broke approach to business that has caused so many computer companies to win big (or go belly up), and the cult of pursuing mind-bending technological innovations. The Soul of a New Machine is an essential chapter in the history of the machine that revolutionized the world in the twentieth century.

ComputersEffectief testen in agile projecten In dit boek laten we zien hoe TMap® met de scrumaanpak kan worden geïntegreerd tot een agile geheel. De ervaring heeft geleerd dat testen niet alleen een uitermate belangrijke activiteit is in een scrumaanpak. Het heeft ook tot onze visie geleid dat testen volledig geïntegreerd moet worden met deze aanpak om maximaal agile te kunnen zijn. In dit boek leggen wij onze visie uit en vertalen we deze naar concrete toepassingen. Testen zien we hierbij nadrukkelijk niet als een proces náást, maar als een integraal onderdeel ván de scrumaanpak. Als waardevolle aanvulling heeft dit boek een door Arie van Bennekum geschreven bijlage met de titel: `Agile testen, wat te gebruiken van DSDM?.

Computers'AIVD waarschuwt: we zijn digitaal naïef.' - NRC 'Onze privacy is in gevaar.' - Trouw Bedrijven als Facebook en Google verzamelen dag in, dag uit informatie over jou. Ze weten waar je woont, wie je kent, wie die mensen op hun beurt kennen, in welk restaurant je vorige week dinsdag hebt gegeten, waar je op 12 augustus 2012 was en met wie, welke kleur je mooi vindt, op welke dagen je hebt gekeken wat voor weer het zou worden, waar je openlijk maar ook in het geheim in geïnteresseerd bent, en nog veel meer... Wat als al deze kennis in handen valt van mensen die kwade bedoelingen hebben? Wat als dat al zo is? We leven in een wereld die in razend tempo digitaliseert. Ze snel zelfs, dat de politie en geheime diensten het onmogelijk kunnen bijbenen en vaak machteloos moeten toekijken als criminelen online toeslaan. Maar op landelijke schaal dreigen nog veel grotere gevaren. Zo heeft Noord-Korea een leger van 6.000 hackers die onder andere verantwoordelijk waren voor de gigantische datalekk
Computers“A Hacker's Mind…sheds vital light on the beginnings of our journey into an increasingly complex world.” —Financial Times It’s not just computers—hacking is everywhere. Legendary cybersecurity expert and New York Times best-selling author Bruce Schneier reveals how using a hacker’s mindset can change how you think about your life and the world. A hack is any means of subverting a system’s rules in unintended ways. The tax code isn’t computer code, but a series of complex formulas. It has vulnerabilities; we call them “loopholes.” We call exploits “tax avoidance strategies.” And there is an entire industry of “black hat” hackers intent on finding exploitable loopholes in the tax code. We call them accountants and tax attorneys. In A Hacker’s Mind, Bruce Schneier takes hacking out of the world of computing and uses it to analyze the systems that underpin our society: from tax laws to financial markets to politics. He reveals an array of powerful actors wh
ComputersA fascinating exploration of how computer algorithms can be applied to our everyday lives. In this dazzlingly interdisciplinary work, acclaimed author Brian Christian and cognitive scientist Tom Griffiths show us how the simple, precise algorithms used by computers can also untangle very human questions. Modern life is constrained by limited space and time, limits that give rise to a particular set of problems. What should we do, or leave undone, in a day or a lifetime? How much messiness should we accept? The authors explain how to have better hunches and when to leave things to chance, how to deal with overwhelming choices and how best to connect with others. From finding a spouse to finding a parking spot, from organizing one's inbox to understanding the workings of human memory, Algorithms To Live By is full of practical takeaways to help you solve common decision-making problems and illuminate the workings of the human mind. Reviews ‘[B]y the end of the book, I was convinced. N

ComputersWhile most people are aware of the big-name software titles--Microsoft Office, Adobe Photoshop, and the like--some of the best Mac software is, like so many precious gems, hidden.

We call these programs Mac Gems, and we're highlighting the very best in this book. We’ve picked our favorite Lion-compatible products, and we present them here. For each program, we give you a brief description of what it does, as well as links to the developer’s website and our full review. Some of the products in these pages are ones we’ve recently discovered; others are oldies

Computers‘Eloquent, insightful and utterly readable: a must read for anyone who is inventing the future or cares about living in it.’ —Christina Wodtke, Stanford University ‘Cennydd’s long-lens view of ethics is exactly what designers, product managers and builders of today’s digital products need.’ —Azeem Azhar, Exponential View ‘Destined to become a well-thumbed classic.’ —Alan Cooper, author of The Inmates Are Running the Asylum. Technology was never neutral; its social, political, and moral impacts have become painfully clear. But the stakes will only get higher as connected cameras watch over the city, algorithms oversee society’s most critical decisions, and transport, jobs, and even war become automated. The tech industry hasn’t yet earned the trust these technologies demand. Based on Cennydd’s years of research and consulting, Future Ethics transforms modern ethical theory into practical advice for designers, product managers, and software engineers alike. C

ComputersFilled with first-hand accounts of ambition, greed, and inspired engineering, this history of the personal computer revolution takes readers inside the cutthroat world of Commodore. Before Apple, IBM, or Dell, Commodore was the first computer manufacturer to market its machines to the public, selling an estimated 22 million Commodore 64s. Those halcyon days were tumultuous, however, owing to the expectations and unsparing tactics of founder Jack Tramiel. Engineers and managers with the company between 1976 and 1994 share their memories of the groundbreaking moments, soaring business highs, and stunning employee turnover that came with being on top in the early days of the microcomputer industry. This updated second edition includes additional interviews and first-hand material from major Commodore figures like marketing guru Kit Spencer, chip designer Bill Mensch, and Commodore co-founder Manfred Kapp.
