'You Are Not Expected to Understand This': How 26 Lines of Code Changed the World

In this audiobook, Mack Sanderson and Emily Schwing reveal the stories behind the computer coding that touches all aspects of life—for better or worse Few of us give much thought to computer code or how it comes to be. The very word “code” makes it sound immutable or even inevitable. “You Are Not Expected to Understand This” demonstrates that, far from being preordained, computer code is the result of very human decisions, ones we all live with when we use social media, take photos, drive our cars, and engage in a host of other activities. Everything from law enforcement to space exploration relies on code written by people who, at the time, made choices and assumptions that would have long-lasting, profound implications for society. Torie Bosch brings together many of today’s leading technology experts to provide new perspectives on the code that shapes our lives. Contributors discuss a host of topics, such as how university databases were programmed long ago to accept only two genders, what the person who programmed the very first pop-up ad was thinking at the time, the first computer worm, the Bitcoin white paper, and perhaps the most famous seven words in Unix history: “You are not expected to understand this.” This compelling book tells the human stories behind programming, enabling those of us who don’t think much about code to recognize its importance, and those who work with it every day to better understand the long-term effects of the decisions they make.

'Ooops': Internet

Wie eine Epidemie im Zeitraffer breitete sich der erpresserische Computercode der Gattung 'Ransomware' aus, lautlos, unheimlich und rasend schnell verbreitet sich die Erpressungssoftware 'WannaCry'. Danach gab es erst einmal kein Halten mehr. Je mehr Computer infiziert wurden, desto schneller breitete sich der Schädling aus. Schreckensszenarien eines globalen Kontrollverlusts werden plötzlich vorstellbar: Flugzeuge heben nicht mehr ab, Züge entgleisen, Geldautomaten versagen, das Licht geht aus, Nahrungsmittel verrotten im Lager, lebenswichtige Apparate im Krankenhaus schalten sich ab. Ein Stillstand des öffentlichen Lebens, umfassend, gleichzeitig und global. Nun wird deutlich, wie verletzlich unsere vernetzte Welt geworden ist. Und wie unser Alltag von Technologien abhängt, die wir nur scheinbar beherrschen. Dies ist die Vertonung eines Artikels aus der SPIEGEL-Ausgabe 21/2017.

#HashtagActivism: Networks of Race and Gender Justice

The power of hashtag activism became clear in 2011, when #IranElection served as an organizing tool for Iranians protesting a disputed election and offered a global audience a front-row seat to a nascent revolution. Since then, activists have used a variety of hashtags to advocate, mobilize, and communicate. In this book, Sarah Jackson, Moya Bailey, and Brooke Foucault Welles explore how and why Twitter has become an important platform for historically disenfranchised populations, including Black Americans, women, and transgender people. The authors describe how such hashtags as #MeToo, #SurvivorPrivilege, and #WhyIStayed have challenged the conventional understanding of gendered violence; examine the voices and narratives of Black feminism enabled by #FastTailedGirls, #YouOKSis, and #SayHerName; and explore the creation and use of #GirlsLikeUs, a network of transgender women. They investigate the digital signatures of the 'new civil rights movement'-the online activism, storytelling, and strategy-building that set the stage for #BlackLivesMatter-and recount the spread of racial justice hashtags after the killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and other high-profile incidents of killings by police. Finally, they consider hashtags created by allies, including #AllMenCan and #CrimingWhileWhite.
