Blockchain, Crypto and the Future of the Internet. The promise of the internet has been stolen. Over the last decade, a handful of giant companies like Facebook and Google have seized control of the web - sapping its dynamism and taking its profits for themselves. But there is a way to take it back. Here, a leading Silicon Valley investor argues that blockchains - the radically free and democratic new type of software design that underpins web3 - could return financial and decision-making power to the internet's users. For the first time, we won't just read and write on the internet - we will own it, too." ... |

The two men arrived in a taxi. ‘Are you Harry Fletcher?’ the older man called out. ‘That’s me,’ I replied. ‘Welcome aboard the Wave Dancer.’ ‘Don’t I know you?’ the taller man said. ‘You’re from London, aren’t you?’ ‘Yes, but I haven’t been there for years,’ I answered. ‘Now about the fishing,’ I went on quickly. ‘We’ll have to leave early tomorrow morning.’ ‘We’re not going fishing,’ the older man said. ‘We’re going diving.’ He threw some money on the table. I did not ask any questions. It was much more money than I had asked for. ... |

Многоезично издание на български, английски и френски езици. ... Живи форми. 64 състояния на присъствие / 64 states of presence / 64 états de présence."Трудно ми е да намеря най-верните думи за тази изрядно композирана книга. Посланията в нея са толкова фини, че се страхувам по невнимание да не обърна посоките им. Те са толкова изстрадани, че е възможно при по-фриволен досег да потече непредвидена кръв от вените им. Толкова загадъчни - почти като изчезващ кораб под примигнали клепачи. И толкова дълбоки на моменти - сякаш цялото ти небе се оглежда в примамливата шир на бургаското море. Дори се чудя дали ... |

"Solid building materials and elements such as building facade components have not only architectural-structural functions, but they are to be guards against environmental attacks on the thermal and moisture comfort of inhabited premises: if necessary, impacts should be let through; or they should be reflected or accumulated. However, the facade structural elements undergo the following impacts: solar radiation; wind load; variation of the outdoor air temperature; effects of neighbouring buildings; effects of the environmental landscape; reflection or accumulation of solar radiation followed by secondary ... |

Quantum physics is strange. It tells us that a particle can be in two places at once. Indeed, that particle is also a wave, and everything in the quantum world can be described entirely in terms of waves, or entirely in terms of particles, whichever you prefer. All of this was clear by the end of the 1920s. But to the great distress of many physicists, let alone ordinary mortals, nobody has ever been able to come up with a common sense explanation of what is going on. Physicists have sought 'quanta of solace' in a variety of more or less convincing interpretations. Popular science master John Gribbin takes us on a ... |

Бележки на един режисьор за изгнанието, семейството и киното."Цял живот съм се крил зад филмови герои. Живеех техния живот и като разказвах техните истории, криех своя. Неразказаните истории оставаха в режисьорския бележник като в добре запушена бутилка. И изведнъж, вероятно с надеждата с това да улесня завръщането си, реших да отворя тази бутилка." Райко Гърлич "Представена под формата на филмов терминологичен речник, чиито термини са драматургично организирани като малки сценарии или като своеобразно търсене на сценарий, книгата Неразказани истории е едновременно автобиография, физическа, интелектуална и ... |
