Logic: Introduction. Beyond The Conversation. OK, let's get this straight. For the past couple of years we've had a great time talking about the merits of conversation, transparency, authenticity, facilitation, participation, and blah blah blah. Having talked about "The Conversation Economy" myself—I'm no exception to the "BLAH". So, we get it—and now it's time to get down to business. From my vantage point there are a few things going on at once, so here's a few thoughts rolling around in my noggin. 1. 2. 3. I'd say there are probably more ways to slice this—but for me these are the three biggies and I'm starting to think about a few questions, such as: 1. Right now, I'm mostly in question mode. Would love to get your thoughts on this one. Second-order logic. In logic and mathematics second-order logic is an extension of first-order logic, which itself is an extension of propositional logic.[1] Second-order logic is in turn extended by higher-order logic and type theory.
First-order logic quantifies only variables that range over individuals (elements of the domain of discourse); second-order logic, in addition, also quantifies over relations. For example, the second-order sentence Syntax and fragments[edit] A sort of variables that range over sets of individuals. Each of the variables just defined may be universally and/or existentially quantified over, to build up formulas. It's possible to forgo the introduction of function variables in the definition given above (and some authors do this) because an n-ary function variable can be represented by a relation variable of arity n+1 and an appropriate formula for the uniqueness of the "result" in the n+1 argument of the relation.
Or , where is a first-order formula. . , or even as ∃SO. Has the form. Richard Dawkins et la genèse du concept de « mème » Le concept de « mème » est particulièrement en vogue aujourd’hui. Il est lui-même devenu un mème. Le monde du marketing a contribué à sa vulgarisation en se l’appropriant pour interpréter les phénomènes de bouche-à-oreille et d’influence massifs auxquels il est confronté depuis l’apparition du web. Comme l’on peut s’en douter, il n’est pas étranger à la popularisation du terme de « marketing viral ». Aux vues des multiples usages et mésusages qu’il en est fait aujourd’hui, il nous a paru utile de replacer le concept dans son contexte d’apparition, à savoir Le Gène égoïste de Richard Dawkins où on le rencontre pour la première fois, afin d’en mieux comprendre le sens. Le mème chez Dawkins : un concept périphérique, une hypothèse à double utilité Le concept de mème tient une place anecdotique dans l’ouvrage : l’auteur ne lui accorde qu’un chapitre d’une quinzaine de pages sur un livre qui en compte pus de 350.
Les gènes sont des « réplicateurs » : ils se dupliquent à l’identique. Like this: Metaphysics through the Ages: from Aristotle to Lil Jon.

Socrates felt so passionately about the value of self-examination that he closely examined not only his own beliefs and values but those of others as well. More precisely, through his relentless questioning, he forced people to examine their own beliefs. He saw the citizens of his beloved Athens sleepwalking through life, living only for money, power, and fame, so he became famous trying to help them. 2.

Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. Pour les articles homonymes, voir Chaos. La théorie du chaos traite des systèmes dynamiques rigoureusement déterministes, mais qui présentent un phénomène fondamental d'instabilité appelé « sensibilité aux conditions initiales » qui, modulo une propriété supplémentaire de récurrence, les rend non prédictibles en pratique à « long » terme.
Introduction[modifier | modifier le code] Définition heuristique d'un système chaotique[modifier | modifier le code] Un système dynamique est dit chaotique si une portion « significative » de son espace des phases présente simultanément les deux caractéristiques suivantes : La présence de ces deux propriétés entraîne un comportement extrêmement désordonné qualifié à juste titre de « chaotique ».

Straw man. A straw man, also known in the UK as an Aunt Sally,[1][2] is a common type of argument and is an informal fallacy based on the misrepresentation of the original topic of argument. To be successful, a straw man argument requires that the audience be ignorant or uninformed of the original argument. The so-called typical "attacking a straw man" implies an adversarial, polemic, or combative debate, and creates the illusion of having completely refuted or defeated an opponent's proposition by covertly replacing it with a different proposition (i.e., "stand up a straw man") and then to refute or defeat that false argument, ("knock down a straw man,") instead of the original proposition.[3][4] This technique has been used throughout history in polemical debate, particularly in arguments about highly charged emotional issues where a fiery, entertaining "battle" and the defeat of an "enemy" may be more valued than critical thinking or understanding both sides of the issue.

We tend to accept that people in authority must be right. It's this assumption that Socrates wanted us to challenge by urging us to think logically about the nonsense they often come out with, rather than being struck dumb by their aura of importance and air of suave certainty. This six part series on philosophy is presented by popular British philosopher Alain de Botton, featuring six thinkers who have influenced history, and their ideas about the pursuit of the happy life. Socrates on Self-Confidence (Part 1) - Why do so many people go along with the crowd and fail to stand up for what they truly believe? Partly because they are too easily swayed by other people's opinions and partly because they don't know when to have confidence in their own.
