Causal relationship recognition algorithm based on external semantic and contextual structural features
Authors: Li Jiaxin , Shuang Kai
Published: February 2024

Identifying the causal relationship of events plays an important role in determining the development of known events and evaluating the possible outcomes of different decisions. At present, neural network models are widely used to identify the relationships between events. Based on obtaining events, researchers distinguish the relationships between events by mining their semantics. However, due to the complexity of events and the dynamic changes in relationships between events, models often cannot fully meet the needs of accurately identifying causal relationships by only learning simple event descriptions in sentences; Moreover, focusing too much on the events themselves often leads to neglecting the structural features of statements and neglecting the impact of specific structural patterns on the relationships between events. In this article, we propose an event masking algorithm that combines external semantics to address the aforementioned issues. In this algorithm, external semantics are first introduced into the statement to enrich the information behind the event, allowing the model to mine the deep connections between events through a wider range of background knowledge; Then, the event masking module is used to enhance the model's extraction of sentence structured features, mining specific contextual representations that are unrelated to the event. The results show that compared to existing neural network algorithms, the algorithm proposed in this paper improves the F1 value of predictions on publicly available datasets by more than 4%.

Numerical Studies Fatigue Damage From Material Variations Catenary Mooring System FPSO Al Zaafarana
Authors: Purnama Bulan
Published: February 2024

When operating, the FPSO receives environmental loads in the form of currents, wind and waves so mooring ropes are required (mooring line). Mooring line is a way to dampen the movement of the Al Zaafarana FPSO which allows it to move freely in the direction of the load. However, several cases of mooring rope accidents occurred including material fatigue of 20%, deployment 17%, and corrosion 11%. So the aim of this research is to analyze motion trajectory (surge and sway), mooring line stress, and deterministic fatigue on mooring line so you get it fatigue damage material catenary mooring line for FPSO Al Zaafarana. Thus, it is hoped that this research can make a scientific contribution in improving the quality and safety of materials mooring line for the Al Zaafarana FPSO, as well as increasing the efficiency of the oil drilling process. This research method uses a numerical study approach as a secondary data source with modeling and simulation using software as well as literature analysis that will support the numerical simulation results. From the results of numerical studies obtained fatigue damage The highest is the material type chain for FPSO Al Zaafarana. One of the reasons is that the mass of the rope is not proportional to the displacement of the ship, so a larger mass of rope is needed or an increase in the number of ropes. In addition, the numerical study simulation only uses 100 seconds so that the movement process only reaches movement transient namely temporary changes that occur in the transition phase before reaching a stable condition.

Oil & gas drilling in the open sea cannot be avoided with the use of FPSO. Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) is a facility in the form of a floating production storage and unloading vessel in the form of crude oil and natural gas originating from the seabed. The selected type of floater that will be operated in the Abadi field, Masela Block, Arafura Sea is the Azurite FPSO ship. In its operation, the FPSO will not be separated from the influence of dynamic loads such as sea waves, ocean currents and wind on the mooring rope structure periodically. This may cause damage to the structure mooring line which influences the performance of the structure. The aim of this research is to analyze motion trajectory (surge and sway), mooring line stress, and fatigue damage on the mooring system catenary by making comparisons using variations in mooring depth. Dimensions mooring line type chain on fairlead with six (6) variations in mooring depth, namely 1000, 900, 800, 700, 600 and 500 meters which will then be analyzed fatigue damage from mooring line the. Observation result Motion Trajectory It was found that the shallower the mooring depth mooring line then value ∆Offset or movement surge & sway will get bigger. Meanwhile in observations Mooring Line Stress and Fatigue Damage obtained both are directly proportional where the greater the tension mooring line then the ratio of damage that occurs due to fatigue in the structure will also be greater. This is because the mass of the rope used is not proportional to displacement boat. And in this numerical analysis simulation it only reaches the initial movement, namely at 100 seconds, where the ship's condition has not yet reached the stable condition it should be.

THE ELECTORAL SUCCESS OF THE (NORTHERN) LEAGUE IN ITALY (2008-2018). IS THE ECONOMIC DECLINE OR THE IDENTITARIAN ISSUES THE MAIN REASON FOR IT?
Authors:   Bulgarian Academy of Sciences & Charles University, BRISKU INXHI
Published: February 2024

This article aims to analyze the rise and electoral success of the (Northern) League in Italy, for the period 2008-2018. The purpose of this analysis is to determine whether the economic difficulties encountered by the electorate or other factors, such as political and cultural ones, have influenced the growth and electoral success of the League in Italy. By analyzing both demand and supply-side data, the analysis shows that the League has had better electoral results in the years after the crisis when the economy has been improving than in the years when there has been a major economic shock. Regarding survey data on the supporters of the League, the analysis shows that the economy is among the least influential factors for them to support a right-wing populist party. On the contrary, the analysis shows that the main triggers for radical right populist mobilization have more to do with group values, identity issues, ethnic and cultural affiliation, xenophobic sentiments, skepticism towards foreigners, multiculturalism, and forms of Euroscepticism.
Marxist Analysis of Capitalistic Trauma and Its Impact on Moral Degeneration After Industrial Revolution
Authors: Iqbal Muhammad , Gul Sereen , Rashid Abdul
Published: February 2024

The study's objective is to present a Marxist interpretation of American society as it is portrayed in Stephen Crane's Maggie: A Girl of the Streets. It was never going to be published because of its eccentricity. Additionally, the story shows the seedy side of life that is full of prostitution, sexual activity, and destitution; all of these things are shown in an unflattering way. Crane's portrayal of a population of impoverished Irish immigrants living in appalling conditions is a striking example of capitalist exploitation and poverty, with low wages, filthy living conditions, and an acute need for immoral activities to survive the harsh industrial revolution era. The work serves as an example of how capitalism and the decline of moral principles are intertwined. The study employs a sociological approach to examine the miserable circumstances of the characters in the novel's social background. A Marxist analysis of the current narrative underscores the detrimental effects of capitalistic monetization, including moral degradation and the dehumanizing effects of the capitalistic economic system. In order to evaluate the core data, the researcher used a qualitative descriptive approach. The supporting data, on the other hand, were gathered from books, papers, journals, internet sites, and other sources.

Published: February 2024

Penelitian ini membahas fenomena mythomania dan penyebaran hoaks di era post-truth, menganalisis psikologis mythomania serta dampaknya terhadap penyebaran hoaks. Mythomania, sebuah gangguan mental yang melibatkan perilaku berbohong patologis, dapat berkontribusi pada penyebaran informasi palsu. Dalam konteks era post-truth, di mana fakta sering diabaikan, individu dengan mythomania dapat tidak sengaja atau sengaja memperkuat penyebaran hoaks. Penelitian ini juga membahas kaitan antara penyebaran hoaks dan politik pascakebenaran. Konsep post-truth politics menciptakan lingkungan di mana berita palsu digunakan untuk memengaruhi opini publik. Individu dengan perilaku mythomania dapat memperumit kontroversi fakta dan kebenaran dalam politik, menyulitkan komunikasi, politik, dan media. Penelitian ini juga menjelaskan perspektif Alqur'an terhadap kejujuran sebagai solusi terhadap penyebaran hoaks. Alqur'an mengajarkan nilai-nilai kejujuran, takwa, dan pertanggungjawaban sebagai landasan untuk mencegah perilaku mythomania dan penyebaran hoaks. Pendidikan literasi media dan regulasi yang mendukung literasi media juga diakui sebagai upaya untuk mengatasi masalah ini.

Tulisan ini membahas tentang Pendekatan Ma’na-Cum-Maghza atas Kisah Khaulah Binti Tsa’labah (QS. Al-Mujadalah:1-4) dalam kaitannya dengan Hak Suara Perempuan di Indonesia. Ma’na-cum-maghza merupakan suatu konsep hermeneutika atau tafsir kontekstual yang dicetuskan oleh Sahiron Syamsuddin. Secara tidak langsung, Sahiron Syamsuddin memberikan tiga langkah metodis yang dapat ditempuh ketika menerapkan pendekatan ma’na-cum-maghza dalam memahami al-Qur’an. Pertama, melakukan analisa bahasa teks al-Qur’an, Kedua, penafsir harus memperhatikan konteks historis pewahyuan ayat-ayat al-Qur’an, baik itu bersifat mikro maupun bersifat makro. Ketiga, penafsir mencoba menggali maqhsad atau maghza al-ayat. Selanjutnya, penafsir kemudian akan mencoba untuk mengkontekstualisasikan maqhsad, atau maghza al-ayat dan menyesuaikannya dengana konteks saat ini. Berdasarkan Undang-undang Hak Suara Perempuan, maghza tentang kebebasan atau hak suara perempuan yang terdapat dalam QS. Al-Mujadalah: 1-4 mencapai relevansinya dengan kebebasan hak suara perempuan di Indonesia, Dengan demikian,  tradisi patriariki telah digugurkan, dan pada saat yang sama, suara laki-laki dan suara perempuan setara berdasarkan QS. Al-Mujadalah: 1-4 dan Undang-undang Republik Indonesia.

Den gemene inklusion
Authors: Fristrup Tine , Odgaard Christopher Karanja
Published: February 2024

I 1948 satte de universelle menneskerettigheder retten til undervisning på dagsordenen i artikel 26, hvor enhver gives ret til undervisning. I UNESCOs Salamancaerklæring fra 1994 udfoldes inclusive education som såvel et politisk som et pædagogisk fænomen, der søger at problematisere, at ikke alle har lige muligheder for at få den undervisning, de i 1948 blev sat i udsigt. Menneskerettighederne forudsætter en humanistisk og egalitær fordring om at danne mennesker gennem værdier som demokrati og lighed. Vores pointe i artiklen er, at menneskerettighedsregimet udfordres af et læringsregime, hvor uddannelse skal sikre den social sammenhængskraft, der er formateret gennem værdier som økonomi og konkurrence i et globaliseret verdenssamfund, som sætter grænser mellem mennesker – som identitet. Dette udmærker således en identitær frem for en egalitær organisering af den sociale orden, hvor inklusion er blevet et prekært identitetspolitisk anliggende, der sætter de grænser mellem mennesker, som menneskerettighederne igennem tiden har forsøgt at udgrænse. Vi vil i artiklen vise, hvordan inklusion gement gøres gældende som uartikuleret uenighed, der (u)muliggør, hvad vi (ikke) kan tale om, når vi alle taler om inklusion.

Social eksklusion i skolen
Authors: Morin Anne
Published: February 2024

Der arbejdes i skolen med mangeartede indsatser i relation til at fordre deltagelse og læring for alle børn og mindske social eksklusion, men forskning viser dels, at eksklusion fortsat er en problematik i skolen dels, at nogle af de indsatser, som tilrettelægges for at skabe gode deltagelses- og læringsmuligheder for børn, kan blive del af ekskluderende processer. Dette bunder bl.a. i, at skolen i sig selv er en handle- sammenhæng, som har differentiering, kvalificering og udskillelse som præmis (Ljungstrøm 1984; Morin 2007; Poulsen 2017). Samtidig støder den pædagogiske målsætning om at håndtere børns forskelle på udfordringer som i høj grad handler om strukturelle forhold, der knytter sig både til skolen som organisation og til spændingsfelter i de skolepolitiske dagsordener. Denne artikel diskuterer social eksklusion i skolen, som forbundet til skolens håndtering af forskelle i forbindelse med indsatser rettet mod inklusion i skolen. På bagrund af en empirisk case argumenteres der for, at afsøgning og indtænkning af personlig meningsstruktur i forbindelse med pædagogisk indsats i praksis bærer et potentiale for at modvirke social eksklusion i skolen men også i pædagogisk praksis mere alment. Artiklen berører disse dilemmaer ud fra empirisk kvalitativ sko- leforskning med fokus på familieklassearbejde i spændingsfeltet mellem hjælp og kontrol. Empirisk fremstilles en caseanalyse, hvor der foreslås en kritisk psykologisk og socialprak- sisteoretisk ramme (Holzkamp 1998, 2013; Dreier 2003, 2008) som grund for diskussion af, hvordan mulig eksklusion kan forstås som sociale processer i konkret praksis analyseret som et dialektisk forhold mellem strukturelle og organisatoriske betingelser (fx hvilke muligheder for støtte, der er til stede i skolen) og personlig meningsstruktur (Holzkamp 2013; Morin; 2018).
‘At lede efter Klumpen’
Authors: Rose Pernelle
Published: February 2024

Skilsmisse er et udbredt fænomen i Danmark, hvor op mod 1/3 af alle danske børn i dag vokser op med skilte forældre (Danmarks Statistik 2014, 2019). Størstedelen af skilsmisseforskningen anlægger en problemorienteret tilgang til fænomenet skilsmisse og implikationerne af forældres brud (Wallerstein m.fl. 2002); nyere forskning har dog vist, at der findes en stor di- versitet i børns skilsmisseoplevelser (Birnbaum m.fl. 2012). En tilsvarende problemorienteret skilsmisseforståelse afspejler sig i de samtalegrupper, der aktuelt oprettes på en lang række skoler landet over for at sikre børns muligheder for at håndtere svære følelser som følge af forældrenes skilsmisse. Som en del af et samlet koncept anvendes bl.a. metaforen “Klumpen” i samtalegrupperne som en gennemgående repræsentation af børnenes smerte, der understøtter arbejdet med at sætte ord på og håndtere de svære følelser. Jeg har valgt at gennemføre et mikrostudie af Klumpen, da det derigennem bliver muligt at få et dybere analytisk indblik i de muligheder og begrænsninger, der efterlades til børns unikke skilsmisseoplevelser, i mødet med de professionelles skilsmisseforståelser. Artiklens formål er at tilbyde et indblik i den diversitet, der viser sig, når man lytter til børnenes egne stemmer om, hvordan de skaber mening i deres varierede skilsmisseoplevelser.
Assessing urban vulnerability to flood risk. A case study in Batna City, in northeast Algeria
Authors: Tout Faicel
Published: February 2024

Based on a binary model that takes into account the physical characteristics of the watershed and the different social and economic characteristics of the Algerian city of Batna, we tried to clarify the vulnerable areas to flood risk. The study relied on Geographic information systems and took into account many factors that could affect the response of the watershed, which are the Height, Slopes, Permeability, proximity to major water courses, Topographic wetness index, Drainage density, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, Height above nearest drainage, the Population density, Housing type, Public equipment and the Population, The research also considers a common area Among four previous studies that was identified as an area at risk, the results indicate a high urban vulnerability in the city centre near Al Maseel and Al-Hizam protection canals and Wadi Al Gourzi. In contrast, the areas of medium vulnerability extend over large areas of the city. These results are related to the change in land use and illegal and legal expansion on non-buildable areas which are supposed to be subject to servitude rights, and these results are mainly due to the physical properties of the watershed, as it provides suitable conditions for the emergence of runoff water, and the low-lying areas of it favor flooding, which can make it difficult to propose economic structural protection measures within the City, which is considered a drainage area for the watershed, and which will be a real obstacle for the authorities to get rid of the flooding problem in the City.
Las plataformas virtuales de contratación pública del Estado español y su transparencia sobre la consideración de criterios de contratación estratégica
Authors: Comet-Herrera David , Benítez-Eyzaguirre Lucía
Published: February 2024

El sistema de información y comunicación de la contratación pública en España, articulado principalmente mediante la Plataforma de Contratación del Sector Público (PLACSP), presenta serias carencias con relación a la aplicación del principio de transparencia para un buen gobierno. Particularmente, su sistema de búsqueda es poco intuitivo y está dirigido a usuarios con altos conocimientos sobre estos procesos administrativos, lo que no facilita la comprensión y accesibilidad a la información y documentación publicada a toda la ciudadanía. Por consiguiente, puede afirmarse que la usabilidad y accesibilidad de esta plataforma es deficiente. Por ello, se hace necesario y urgente revisar esta herramienta digital con el ánimo de mejorar tanto su interfaz como su sistema de búsqueda, como elemento central y más relevante para los usuarios, en pro de facilitar el acceso a la información (especialmente, a los pliegos administrativos y técnicos, las empresas adjudicatarias, el montante de los contratos, etc.). A nuestro entender, se trataría de hacer de esta plataforma una herramienta sencilla, rápida e intuitiva, que ofrezca información útil que garantice una mayor transparencia de los procesos de contratación pública, a la par que contribuya al buen funcionamiento del sector público y a la erradicación de posibles prácticas corruptas. Por último, debe ampliar la información sobre la consideración de clausulado social y ambiental en los contratos públicos, por ser esta una de las principales finalidades de la propia Ley de Contratos del Sector Público, junto a la publicidad, la transparencia, la no discriminación y la igualdad de trato, entre otras, que no puede quedar invisibilizada.

Aesthetic speech acts: their pragmatic status, function, and realization
Authors: Kiklewicz Aleksander
Published: February 2024

The subject matter of this article concerns the interpretation of texts and statements of an aesthetic nature in the light of pragmatics, i.e. as aesthetic speech acts. The author treats aesthetic speech acts as stimulating ones, which are opposed to both representative acts and determinative acts (especially, directive ones). A characteristic feature of stimulating speech acts is their persuasive nature, i.e. such a language action that induces and encourages the addressee to experience emotions but does not influence them in a volitional way. Aesthetic reactions are self-steering and do not depend on the subject’s will. Therefore, the realization of aesthetic speech acts, in comparison with other acts, is specific: it is not possible to use specialized (lexical or grammatical) exponents of the illocutionary function, e.g. performative verbs. To perform the aesthetic function, various elements of the plan of content and the plan of expression are used, which suggest the aesthetic intention of the sender: 1) the semantic content of the text or utterance; 2) its form and structure; 3) context and communication situation; and 4) translation of text/message, including the media. Due to their functional and formal features, aesthetic speech acts are divided into several subtypes: 1) macro-, meso- and micro-acts; 2) free and complementary acts; and 3) communicative and non-communicative acts.

Published: February 2024

Die Relevanz von Fernsehnachrichten wird auf die Glaubwürdigkeit zurückgeführt, die sie in einer Reihe von Ländern genießen. Für den spezifischen Beitrag sprachwissenschaftlicher Medienforschung bietet die Medienkulturlinguistik den geeigneten Rahmen. Ein Ansatzpunkt ist die Analyse von Kommunikationsformen und Textsorten, wobei ein multimodaler Textbegriff zugrunde liegt. Am Beispiel verschiedener Nachrichtensendungen des ORF an einem Tag werden die Vergleichsgrößen für eine kontrastive Untersuchung von Fernsehnachrichten erläutert. Abschließend werden verschiedene Klassifikationen von Textsorten in TV-Nachrichten vorgestellt und die Beschreibung von Textsortenprofilen (mit den Kategorien Textsortenrepertoire, -frequenz und -vernetzung) als anzustrebendes Ergebnis medienkulturlinguistischer Analysen bestimmt.

Published: February 2024

Introduction: Despite the increasing incidence of breast cancer among women in Northeast Brazil, there have been no studies on the association between physical activity and attendance to mammography screening. Objective: This study of Brazilian women addressed socio-economic variables, physical activity, and knowledge about breast cancer and their impact on attendance to mammography screening. Methods: A cross-sectional quantitative study was conducted as an epidemiological evaluation. Data were obtained by interviewing 307 women in a public health center. Logistic regression analysis was applied to determine the odds ratio (ORs) and confidence intervals (CI) of variables. Results: Mean age of women was 49.79 (SD=8.63) years and 172 (56.0%) were between 40 and 49 years old. Women aged from 40 to 49 and ≥50 years who performed physical activity, had a 2.4-fold (95% CI: 1.13-5.04) and 10.6-fold (95% CI: 2.66-41.95) increased chance to attend MS every year (p=0.040; p<0.001). Women aged between 40 and 49 years with a low and middle income, had a 10.3-fold (OR=0.097; 95% CI: 0.02-0.53) and 13.2-fold (OR=0.076; 95% CI: 0.11-0.53) decreased chance to attend MS every second year (p=0.007). The MS attendance of women aged ≥50 years with basic education level was 13.3 (OR=0.075; 95% CI: 0.09-0.66) times decreased (p=0.010). Conclusion: Physical activity represented an important predictor of MS attendance of all women. The impact of income and education level, in contrast, depended strongly on the age group.

Este estudo teve por objetivo analisar as produções científicas envolvendo as repercussões da pandemia da covid-19 nas ações e nos serviços de saúde ofertados às pessoas vivendo com HIV. Para tanto, foi realizada uma revisão de escopo, de acordo com as recomendações do Joanna Briggs Institute e PRISMA-ScR. A busca ocorreu em março de 2022 em sete bases de dados e na literatura cinzenta, com os descritores: pandemia, COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, HIV, infecções por HIV, estratégias de saúde e serviços de saúde, combinados aos operadores booleanos “AND” e “OR”. Dois pesquisadores conduziram a pesquisa nas fontes de dados, de maneira independente. Com a busca, foram identificadas 1.032 publicações, das quais 42 foram incluídas. Foram evidenciadas dificuldades no acesso e na vinculação aos serviços de saúde, manifestando-se em redução do horário de atendimento, escassez de materiais e diminuição ou sobrecarga de recursos humanos, o que fragilizou a oferta de ações de monitoramento do tratamento, dispensação de medicamentos e acompanhamento clínico. Por outro lado, foram empregados sistemas digitais de atendimento e seguimento, além do uso de métodos de dispensação de medicamentos para longos períodos, recorrendo-se a locais próximos às pessoas acometidas ou, até mesmo, em suas residências. Em suma, foi possível constatar que, apesar dos efeitos negativos da pandemia nas ações e nos serviços de saúde ameaçarem as conquistas dos últimos 40 anos do enfrentamento da epidemia do HIV, estratégias promissoras para oportunizar a atenção integral, proativa e continuada foram implementadas em tempos de covid-19.
Second-order linear recurrences with identically distributed residues modulo p^e

Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $u(a,-1)$ and $u(a',-1)$ be two Lucas sequences whose discriminants have the same nonzero quadratic character modulo $p$ and whose periods modulo $p$ are equal. We prove that there is then an integer $c$ such that for all $d\in\mathbb Z_p$, the frequency with which $d$ appears in a full period of $u(a,-1)\pmod p$ is the same frequency as $cd$ appears in $u(a',-1)\pmod p$. Here $u(a,b)$ satisfies the recursion relation $u_{n+2}=au_{n+1}+bu_n$ with initial terms $u_0=0$ and $u_1=1$. Similar results are obtained for the companion Lucas sequences $v(a,-1)$ and $v(a',-1)$. This paper extends analogous statements for Lucas sequences of the form $u(a,1)\pmod p$ given in a previous article. We further generalize our results by showing for a certain class of primes $p$ that if $e>1$, $b=\pm 1$, and $u(a,b)$ and $u(a',b)$ are Lucas sequences with the same period modulo $p$, then there exists an integer $c$ such that for all residues $d\pmod{p^e}$, the frequency with which $d$ appears in $u(a,b)\pmod{p^e}$ is the same frequency as $cd$ appears in $u(a',b)\pmod{p^e}$.
The Game That Never Ends
Authors: Mailland Julien
Published: February 2024

A guide to the fascinating legal history of the videogame industry, written for nonlawyers.

Why did a judge recall FIFA 15, a nonviolent soccer game, from French shelves in 2014? Why was Vodka Drunkenski, a character in Nintendo-Japan's Punch-Out!, renamed Soda Popinski in the US and then in Western Europe, where the pun made no sense? Why was a Dutch-American company barred by US courts from distributing a clone of Pac-Man? Julien Mailland answers all these questions and more in The Game That Never Ends, an inside look at the legal history that undergirds our favorite videogames. Drawing on a series of case studies as vignettes of the human comedy, Mailland sheds light on why and how the role of lawyers is key for understanding the videogame industry.

Each chapter in The Game That Never Ends is a mini-puzzle that pieces together how an important legal issue arose, was resolved, and impacted the industry and the experience of gamers in real time. These chapters are interspersed with shorter chapters called “The Lawyer's Corner,” opportunities to dive deeper into individual cases. Lightly footnoted, these interludes connect the previous chapters together by providing a conceptual meta-analysis. Offering a comprehensive overview of the global legal history of videogames, The Game That Never Ends will leave readers with a nuanced, in-depth, and more global understanding of the videogame industry.
The Science of Weird Shit
Authors: French Chris
Published: February 2024

An accessible and gratifying introduction to the world of paranormal beliefs and bizarre experiences.

Ghostly encounters, alien abduction, reincarnation, talking to the dead, UFO sightings, inexplicable coincidences, out-of-body and near-death experiences. Are these legitimate phenomena? If not, how should we go about understanding them? In this fascinating book, Chris French investigates paranormal claims to discover what lurks behind this “weird shit.” French provides authoritative, evidence-based explanations for a wide range of superficially mysterious phenomena, and then goes further to draw out lessons with wider applications to many other aspects of modern society where critical thinking is urgently needed.

Using academic, comprehensive, logical, and, at times, mathematical approaches, The Science of Weird Shit convincingly debunks ESP, communicating with the dead, and alien abduction claims, among other phenomena. All the while, however, French maintains that our belief in such phenomena is neither ridiculous nor trivial; if anything, such claims can tell us a great deal about the human mind if we pay them the attention they are due. Filled with light-bulb moments and a healthy dose of levity, The Science of Weird Shit is a clever, memorable, and gratifying read you won't soon forget.
Tech Agnostic
Authors: Epstein Greg
Published: February 2024

An urgently needed exploration of global technology worship, and a measured case for skepticism and agnosticism as a way of life, from the New York Times–bestselling author of Good without God.

Today's technology has overtaken religion as the chief influence on twenty-first century life and community. In Tech Agnostic, Harvard and MIT's influential humanist chaplain Greg Epstein explores what it means to be a critical thinker with respect to this new faith. Encouraging readers to reassert their common humanity beyond the seductive sheen of “tech,” this book argues for tech agnosticism—not worship—as a way of life. Without suggesting we return to a mythical pre-tech past, Epstein shows why we must maintain a freethinking critical perspective toward innovation until it proves itself worthy of our faith or not.

Epstein asks probing questions that center humanity at the heart of engineering: Who profits from an uncritical faith in technology? How can we remedy technology's problems while retaining its benefits? Showing how unbelief has always served humanity, Epstein revisits the historical apostates, skeptics, mystics, Cassandras, heretics, and whistleblowers who embody the tech reformation we desperately need. He argues that we must learn how to collectively demand that technology serve our pursuit of human lives that are deeply worth living.

In our tumultuous era of religious extremism and rampant capitalism, Tech Agnostic offers a new path forward, where we maintain enough critical distance to remember that all that glitters is not gold—nor is it God.
The Leaders You Need
Authors: Brown Karen
Published: February 2024

An innovative, field-tested framework for leaders and managers on how to create more diverse leadership and management teams.

We need the strength that comes from diversity more now than we ever have in our collective memory. Without leadership teams that reflect the full range of humanity, for-profit and nonprofit organizations alike will find it more difficult to confront today's challenges and are unlikely to thrive in the long term. But no two organizations have the same need for greater diversity in leadership nor the same path to achieving it. In The Leaders You Need, Karen Brown offers an innovative, field-tested ABCD Framework that will help readers to discover the hidden leadership and management talent in their organizations—and how to harness it.

Karen Brown shares the approach she has used to guide organizations from small nonprofits to the Global 500 on their journey to greater diversity in leadership and management. Her framework consists of four pillars:

• How to align diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts with business priorities

• How to build strong partnerships with stakeholders

• How to cultivate a culture of role models

• How to define objectives and outcomes with data

Readers will learn how to use the framework to identify and dismantle the barriers to greater leadership and management diversity in their organizations. What's more, they will get practical advice on how to become inclusive leaders who create opportunities for everyone on their teams to learn, grow, and fulfill their potential.
Moral Codes
Authors: Blackwell Alan F.
Published: February 2024

Why the world needs less AI and better programming languages.

Decades ago, we believed that robots and computers would take over all the boring jobs and drudgery, leaving humans to a life of leisure. This hasn't happened. Instead, humans are still doing boring jobs, and even worse, AI researchers have built technology that is creative, self-aware, and emotional—doing the tasks humans were supposed to enjoy. How did we get here? In Moral Codes, Alan Blackwell argues that there is a fundamental flaw in the research agenda of AI. What humanity needs, Blackwell argues, is better ways to tell computers what we want them to do, with new and better programming languages: More Open Representations, Access to Learning, and Control Over Digital Expression, in other words, MORAL CODE.

Blackwell draws on his deep experiences as a programming language designer—which he has been doing since 1983—to unpack fundamental principles of interaction design and explain their technical relationship to ideas of creativity and fairness. Taking aim at software that constrains our conversations with strict word counts or infantilizes human interaction with likes and emojis, Blackwell shows how to design software that is better—not more efficient or more profitable, but better for society and better for all people. Covering recent research and the latest smart tools, Blackwell offers rich design principles for a better kind of software—and a better kind of world.
