عن المؤلف	B McGraw studied ECE at the USAFA after googling average incomes by degrees and finding out how much college costs. After studying signals processing at AFIT for an MS, he worked as a test engineer at Edwards AFB with an emphasis on cowboy coding and statistical methods you hope no one asks about. After leaving the Air Force as a captain, B McGraw moved to Atlanta to develop sensor fusion and analysis algorithms at GTRI. As a side hobby, he writes novels and satirical science articles, clickbait, and news for his fake journal jabde completely for free until he sold out by writing this book. He can no longer complain about paywalls.

وصف الكتاب	Et al. is a satirical academic journal that uses machine learning and scientific principles on absurd studies, from the cat Lord Whiskers' role in the extinction of the dodo bird to the quantum mysteries of untidy toddler rooms.Key FeaturesConducts satirical research on topics ranging from quantum computing to clingy robot dog algorithmsAnswers questions like "Can a computer understand a Scotsman?" and "Is Sarah Palin real?"Secures the power grid and your home from the prying eyes of government drones a.k.a. birdsExpands science by studying cow-based atmospheres, and the flavortown center of the brainSolves climate change and saves the world by proposing a banana-based fission reactorNullifies the possibility of getting lost at the fair with a mirror-house escape algorithmBook DescriptionTired of the same old math, science, statistics, and programming memes people post online and want something a little more elaborate? This is the book for you.Tremble as we make up all our own facts and data, hand-draw diagrams in MS Paint, and quote from fictional studies and journals. Cower as authors write in the first person because their study is just a little too personal for them. Recoil from the sheer mass of oversimplified methodology, distilling someone's entire thesis into a paragraph of jokes crude enough to make it into a Mike Myers movie.Over the last few years, we have taken arguments that you would normally have after four Jack and cokes at game night and turned them into properly formatted research papers with a writing tone serious enough to confuse the uninitiated. These papers are high-effort jokes by researchers and scientists for researchers and scientists. They cover a range of topics such as the consequences of re-releasing tourists back into Yellowstone National Park after COVID-19, how to play StarCraft competitively online on a quantum computer, and most importantly, how trees around the globe are becoming increasingly radicalized.What you will learnHow to draw a graph using MS Paint, maybeWhether Sarah Palin is a figment of your imaginationHow one pirate cat brought about the extinction of the beloved dodoWhy rabbits used to be jerks back in the dayIf you actually learn anything from these articles, get your memory erased immediatelyWho this book is forThis book is for researchers and those who love science mingled with humor. It's for those who are a little too tired of the talking heads and futurists of the science world and would like something more entertaining in the form of absurd speculative studies by researchers as unbelievable as their work. Anyone who has experienced academic writing, or the tribulations of any research institution will enjoy the wide range of bizarre, yet real-world topics compiled in this book. Even if you don't know much about the subject, we usually have a background section.Table of ContentsThe Pirate Kitty Theory: How a House Cat BeingCows All the Way Down: Could Cow-Based Planetoids Support Methane Atmospheres?Ecological Impacts of Re-Releasing Tourists into YellowstoneThe Great Rabbit War of 863AD: Myth or Historical Fact?The Cat Homing Infrared Laser Drone Defense (CHILD) System: A Novel Approach to Suburban DefenseThe Sarah Palin Mandela Effect: How America Believes in a Fictional PoliticianUtilitarianism, Shame, and Mysticism: Autonomous Vehicle Moral Compass Design and AnalysisA Comparative Analysis of Trevor's Mom: Age Estimation MethodologyAdaptive Smart Grids for Migratory Government Drones(N.B.
