Create Stunning AI Art Using Craiyon, DALL-E and Midjourney: A Guide to Generated Art for Everyone - Epub + Converted PDF
نویسندگان: Antonis Tsagaris & Andreas Pampoukkas خلاصه: When I decided to write this book, I had no idea what I had gotten myself into. At first, it was going to be a 5000-or-so word book, and it was just going to be a little primer about Craiyon, or “Dall-E mini”, as it was called at the time. Craiyon is a generative art artificial intelligence program and, since you’ve picked up this book, you probably already know what it does. However, I will allow for the following possibilities: 1. This book was a present, which is good, because at least you didn’t get socks 2. You only bought it to impress the hot, artistically-inclined hottie that’s hawt at school. The good news? You just put food on my table. The bad news? It’s not going to work. If any of the above are the case, let me bring you up to speed: Craiyon, and other similar AI art generation programs will let you enter a text prompt (tip: get used to the word “prompt”) and then create an image based on that text prompt. For example, you could ask for “a frog eating a bagel in a pond on Titan, edward hopper style” and the AI would do its best to return a picture that’s relevant to your prompt. Of course, this being AI, the results could end up being hilariously bad, but that’s also part of the fun. As any decent fellow writing a book about any subject would do, I went ahead and did my research on the matter, and while trying to find alternatives to Craiyon, I came upon DALL-E, which was (and still is, at the time of writing) in invite-only beta. I also discovered what would probably end up being my wife, if it was human and could cook creamy risotto, and I wasn’t already married: Midjourney. Of course, there are many more out there, often with their own twist on the formula. Nightcafe will actually let you print your creations and have them mailed to your address, while StarryAI will let you generate NFTs right then and there. Stable Diffusion is another big contender that I’ll be following with much interest. I have used most of them (for you, dear reader) and I can tell you that DALL-E and Midjourney beat the alternatives (with the exception of Stable Diffusion) into a pulp and use it to fertilize their plants, while Craiyon often returns such ingenious results that is definitely worth keeping around. After using the plethora of newfangled AI tools that suddenly sprang up on the web, I know that writing a book only about Craiyon was no longer an option. This book had to become the bible of AI- generated art books, or I had failed. Of course, it also had to be shipped in a reasonable amount of time, so I released it in a form that I consider to be finished, but far from complete. This means that content will be added to this book very regularly, and you’ll be able to download the updated version to your device any time you wish. At the time of writing, the book has already seen two updates, and many more are coming as this is a vibrant, active field in its early days, and that requires constant attention and revisions.
Deutschland in Grün by Frank Uekötter - PDF
Deutschland in Grün by Frank Uekötter - PDF
نویسندگان: Frank Uekötter خلاصه: Das grüne Deutschland hat international unterschiedliche Bewertungen erfahren. Eine freundliche Lesart betont, die Deut- schen hätten ein Niveau des ökologischen Bewusstseins erreicht, von dem sich andere Länder ruhig eine Scheibe abschneiden könnten. Eine weniger freundliche Lesart zieht lieber eine Linie zu den finsteren Kapiteln der deutschen Geschichte, und natür- lich stehen dabei die Nazis an der Spitze der Beliebtheitsskala. Oft stimmen noch nicht einmal die Fakten, und von einer Refle- xion des Gesamtzusammenhangs ist bei solchen Gelegenheiten erst recht keine Rede.6 Während das grüne Deutschland inter- nationale Anerkennung findet, ist seine Geschichte ein Stein- bruch für all jene, denen es vor allem auf eine billige Provokation ankommt.

نویسندگان: Anne M. Van Leeuwen خلاصه: Inspiration springs from Passion. . . . Passion is born from unconstrained love, commitment, and a vision no one else can own. Lynda—my best friend and an extraordinarily gifted nurse—thank you, I could not have done this without your love, strong support, and belief in me. My gratitude to Mom, Dad, Adele, Gram . . . all my family and friends, for I am truly blessed by your humor and faith. A huge hug for my daughters, Sarah and Margaret—I love you very much. To my puppies, Maggie, Taylor, Emma, Zoe, Sophie, and Gracie for their endless and unconditional love. Many thanks to my friend and wonderful coauthor Mickey; to all the folks at F.A. Davis, especially Rob and Julia for their guidance, support, and great ideas. And, very special thanks to Lisa Houck, publisher, for her friendship, excellent direction, and unwavering encouragement.
Der verkannte Bürger by Hartmut Kaelble - Original PDF
Der verkannte Bürger by Hartmut Kaelble - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Hartmut Kaelble خلاصه: Noch am 50. Jahrestag der Römischen Verträge 2007 galt die Europäische Union als ein internationales Erfolgsmodell, in das nicht nur Politiker au- ßerhalb Europas, sondern auch die eigenen Bürger der Europäischen Union (EU) viel Vertrauen setzten. Dieses Modell bekam in den vergangenen Jah- ren, in der Eurokrise und danach in der Flüchtlingskrise, starke Risse. Die Folgen dieser Krisen sind weiterhin spürbar. Es bleibt ein Teil der öffentlichen Erinnerung, dass die Europäische Union an Vertrauen ihrer Bürger verlor und in vielen Mitgliedsländern zeitweise sogar die Gegner der Union über- wogen. Der Brexit verstärkt diese dunkle Erinnerung, auch wenn die Abstim- mung über ihn sehr knapp ausging. Inzwischen ist das Vertrauen der Bürger in die Union zurückgekehrt, aber die EU hat sich weiterhin mit europafeind- lichen Parteien im Europäischen Parlament, in vielen nationalen Parlamenten und in einigen nationalen Regierungen herumzuschlagen. Sie gab es vor der Krise weit weniger. Unter Experten und Intellektuellen stößt die Europäische Union weiterhin auf mehr Skepsis als vor den Krisen, auch wenn die uni- onsfreundlichen Veröffentlichungen in allerjüngster Zeit deutlich zunehmen. Umgekehrt bestehen unter den Europapolitikern häufig Irritationen und auch Misstrauen gegenüber den Bürgern. Aus ihrer Sicht sind die Bürger ent- weder schwer für die Union zu mobilisieren, wie etwa bei den Europawahlen, oder zu wenig widerstandsfähig gegen antieuropäische Angstkampagnen wie beim französischen und niederländischen Nein 2005 und beim Brexit 2016. Die Beziehung zwischen Bürgern und Europäischer Union, die früher eher als uninteressanter Seitenast der Geschichte der europäischen Integration an- gesehen wurde, ist inzwischen ein schwelendes Krisenthema geworden

Statistics for Business & Economics by David_R_Anderson,_Dennis_J_Sweeney - Original PDF
نویسندگان: David_R_Anderson,_Dennis_J_Sweeney خلاصه: This text is the 14th edition of STATISTICS FOR BUSINESS AND ECONOMICS. In this edition, we include procedures for statistical analysis using Excel 2016 and JMP Student Edition 14. In MindTap Reader, we also include instructions for using the exceptionally popular open-source language R to perform statistical analysis. We are excited to introduce two new coauthors, Michael J. Fry of the University of Cincinnati and Jeffrey W. Ohlmann of the University of Iowa. Both are accomplished teachers and researchers. More details on their backgrounds may be found in the About the Authors section. The remainder of this preface describes the authors’ objectives in writing STATISTICS FOR BUSINESS AND ECONOMICS and the major changes that were made in developing the 14th edition. The purpose of the text is to give students, primarily those in the fields of business administration and economics, a conceptual introduction to the field of statistics and its many applications. The text is applications-oriented and written with the needs of the nonmathematician in mind; the mathematical prerequisite is understanding of algebra. Applications of data analysis and statistical methodology are an integral part of the or- ganization and presentation of the text material. The discussion and development of each technique is presented in an application setting, with the statistical results providing insights to decisions and solutions to problems. Although the book is applications oriented, we have taken care to provide sound meth- odological development and to use notation that is generally accepted for the topic being covered. Hence, students will find that this text provides good preparation for the study of more advanced statistical material. A bibliography to guide further study is included as an appendix
Das Europäische Parlament 1979–2004 by Verlag W. Kohlhammer - Original PDF
Das Europäische Parlament 1979–2004 by Verlag W. Kohlhammer - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Verlag W. Kohlhammer خلاصه: 2004, Brüssel, 7.00 Uhr: Der Schuman-Kreisel, einer der Hauptverkehrskno- tenpunkte im Europadistrikt, wird wie fast jeden Morgen von hunderten Au- tofahrern1 , nicht zuletzt Angestellten und Abgeordneten des Europäischen Parlaments (EP), durchfahren und überlastet. Haben sie ihn passiert, ragt auf der rechten Seite das imposante Gebäude der Europäischen Kommission in die Höhe, ein paar Straßen weiter die Gebäude des Europäischen Parlaments. Als Metapher für Selbstfindung und Selbstorganisation lässt sich das frühmorgend- liche Treiben auf den Straßen unmittelbar vor den europäischen Institutionen lesen. Darin ist es vergleichbar mit der Selbstfindung und Selbstverortung, die das Europäische Parlament seit 1979 zu jener Institution machten, die wir heute kennen. 2004, Brüssel, 7.00 Uhr, Rue Wiertz: Noch ist es still vor den Gebäuden des Europäischen Parlaments. Hohe Glasfassaden auf der einen Seite und ein im- posanter, säulenumkränzter Eingang auf der anderen Seite flankieren die sehr klein erscheinende Rue Wiertz. Ein schmaler Durchgang führt zu den neuesten Gebäuden über der Gare du Luxembourg. Glasbrücken verbinden alle Bauten miteinander. Die ersten, in Anzüge und Kostüme gekleideten Personen, aber auch die in Jeans und mit Laptop unter dem Arm, laufen auf den Eingang zu, die obligatorische Security-Card bereitwillig gezückt. In der Eingangshalle tref- fen Abgeordnete, Praktikanten und persönliche Referenten aufeinander, um ihren Arbeitstag zu beginnen. Für die Verwaltungsangestellten hat er längst be- gonnen. Alles läuft in festen Bahnen ab, die den Menschen außerhalb des Par- laments jedoch technisch, hochbürokratisch und weit weg von ihrem eigenen Alltag erscheinen mögen
Cybercrime by Alisdair A. Gillespie - Original PDF
Cybercrime by Alisdair A. Gillespie - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Alisdair A. Gillespie خلاصه: This is not a usual textbook. It does not purport to be the definitive book on the issue of cybercrime, even if such a thing was possible. Cybercrime, as will be seen, is not easy to define and covers a breadth of subjects. A difficulty with trying to write the ‘definitive’ book on cybercrime is something is bound to be missed out. Trying to cover everything also tends to mean that there is a breadth of cover- age but without depth, partly because publishers (not unreasonably) want books to be of an appropriate (readable!) length. What this book does is to highlight some of the key issues of debate that exist in respect of cybercrime, including what cybercrime is. You will find many of the key areas within this book and perhaps a couple that are not always considered. Each topic follows the same format: the behaviour is discussed critically and an analysis is made of whether the law can solve the behaviour and, if so, how. New to this edition is an examination of the investigation of cybercrime. Chapter 12 considers which agencies investigate cybercrime, and how they are structured in order to do so. Chapter 13 considers the powers of the police and other agencies in the context of investigating cybercrime. The requirement on Internet Service Providers to retain so-called ‘communication data’ (broadly speaking, the who, how and why of communications but not its content) is extremely contro- versial. The increasing use of so-called open source intelligence also proves con- troversial, with the police, and others, looking at what is posted on the internet. These new chapters focus on the key issues of debate and are introduced to allow the other chapters to be put into context.
Darwin and Catholicism BY Caruana - Original PDF
Darwin and Catholicism BY Caruana - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Louis Caruana خلاصه: Charles Darwin (1809–82) explained the history and variety of life on earth in terms of evolution. He formulated his ideas for the first time in his book On the Origin of Species, published in 1859. His theory brought together under one explanation the innumerable different phe- nomena observable in the organic world, and suggested moreover that the difference between humans and non-human animals was a difference in degree rather than one of kind.1 Because of this, philosophical and theological debates soon became inevitable. What had been formulated as a new scientific theory quickly developed into a new philosophical and cultural paradigm with repercussions in ethics, anthropology and theology.
