Visionary designer and technologist John Maeda defines the fundamental laws of how computers think, and why you should care even if you aren't a programmer. "Maeda is to design what Warren Buffett is to finance." --Wired John Maeda is one of the world's preeminent interdisciplinary thinkers on technology and design. In How to Speak Machine, he offers a set of simple laws that govern not only the computers of today, but the unimaginable machines of the future. Technology is already more powerful than we can comprehend, and getting more powerful at an exponential pace. Once set in motion, algorithms never tire. And when a program's size, speed, and tirelessness combine with its ability to learn and transform itself, the outcome can be unpredictable and dangerous. Take the seemingly instant transformation of Microsoft's chatbot Tay into a hate-spewing racist, or how crime-predicting algorithms reinforce racial bias. How to Speak Machine provides a coherent framework for today's product designers, business leaders, and policymakers to grasp this brave new world. Drawing on his wide-ranging experience from engineering to computer science to design, Maeda shows how businesses and individuals can identify opportunities afforded by technology to make world-changing and inclusive products--while avoiding the pitfalls inherent to the medium.Binding Type: Hardcover

HINT WATER
Flavor Name: Best Sellers Variety Pack, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
THIS WATER HAS JUST A SMALL AMOUNT OF FLAVOR. IT DOES TAKE A LITTLE GETTING USED TO BUT AFTER A BOTTLE YOU WILL LIKE IT. IF YOU DONT DRINK MUCH WATER TRY THIS YOU MIGHT LIKE IT OVER TAP WATER.

Excellent if you like flavored water but not seltzer
Flavor Name: Best Sellers Variety Pack, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
I don't like seltzer but I LOVE this stuff. Minus one star because I think it's pricey. I could drink a bunch of these each day, but I limit myself to one.

Flavored Water I Actually Crave
Flavor Name: Best Sellers Variety Pack, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 12), Flavor Name: Best Sellers Variety Pack, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
I didn’t expect to get hooked on a flavored water, but Hint Water Watermelon has honestly become one of my everyday essentials. I usually get bored with plain water, but this hits that perfect balance, it’s just enough flavor to keep things interesting without feeling fake or overpowering.
The watermelon taste is super light and refreshing, like a subtle hint of a fresh slice rather than that overly sweet candy version you get with a lot of drinks. I’ve tried a ton of flavored waters, and this is one of the few that doesn’t leave any weird aftertaste, which is a huge win for me.
I find myself reaching for it throughout the day, especially when I’m trying to stay hydrated but don’t want soda or anything sugary. It just feels clean and easy to drink. At this point, it’s kind of replaced most other drinks for me. I always make sure I have a few bottles on hand.
