Circular Reasoning: The Rise of Flat Earth Belief - Michael Marshall - Winchester Discovery Centre 2019-12-12
The reasoning behind the name was the fact that the air was really cold and crisp.But at the same time really relaxing to just sit by the water and inhale.
I’m starting to see what they mean by vanity and narcissism.
This unbearable flood of ‘portrait photographers’ doing fancy and yet totally predictable pictures of … you guessed right, usually women. And then they pat each other on their fleshy shoulders and say...

Indeed, there is something very weird about the Ayodhya judgement and even the reactions it evoked. The judgement forsook the principle of hard facts and reasoning in taking cognizance of nebulous notion such as faith and belief. Even on that count, it may be contestable that what is construed as belief of the majority of Hindus, is really the fabricated notion by the unscrupulous politicians hammered into the minds of gullible millions in recent times. If it was the belief of the majority of the Hindus, the history would have provided evidence of some disturbances during the five centuries of existence of the Babri masjid. The entire controversy started only after the idol of Ram Lalla was placed under the central dome surreptitiously by some miscreants in 1949 in the frenzied communal context of those times. It was ostensibly a political move, which launched a lasting communal contention that eventually culminated into destruction of a historical structure and created countrywide mayhem devouring thousands of lives and most importantly the social contract between the country and its minorities, which has been the basis of our nationhood. Leave apart the majority of Hindus of India, even their majority in Ayodhya also does not believe that Ram was really born under the central dome. There are many temples in Ayodhya which are known to be the birthplace of Ram. It is only the Sangh Parivar which initiated and propagated this notion for mobilization of Hindus for its political objective. .
This judgement has validated that evil politics by accepting that it was the place of birth of Lord Ram as per faith and belief of the Hindus as Justice Agrawal wrote and The disputed site is the birth place of Lord Ram
Hindus have been worshipping the place
and visiting as a sacred place of pilgrimage since time immemorial as Justice Dharam Veer Sharma wrote. The main slogan of the Hindu zealots, mandir vanhi banayenge (we will build the temple at the same spot) is enabled by the judgement, vindicating their stand that it was the birthplace of Ram. The least that could have been done by the judges is at least to grant the Babri mosque site to the Muslims. It is futile to say, as Chidambaram observed that it has nothing to do with the act of demolition of the Babri masjid on December 6, 1992. Once this judgement validated the basic claim of the vandals that the masjid was an illegitimate structure built after destruction of the Ram temple, the criminal case gets automatically weakened. The award of the title of the desired land to them accorded moral justification to the vandals act in retrospect. Even without this judgement, it was inconceivable that someone like Advani would be convicted for the vandals act. With the judgement, all those provocations of Advani and party that led the frenzied mob to raze the domes to ground get transformed into quasi truth. .
The Judgement is falsely defended as reconciliatory. It does not reconcile anything, when it openly gives out the Hindus what they even could not expect themselves. The fact that there was no adverse reaction to the judgement from people anywhere is no proof that it was accepted by all the communities. In any case only the Hindutva forces have been the trouble mongers; Muslims just expected a fair deal from the court. They had kept calm when someone installed a Ram idol right at the centre of their masjid; they maintained it when the locks were put around the idol and later opened allowing the Hindus to perform pooja in their masjid; they preserved it even when they were communally abused all over the country during Advanis Rath Yatra; they controlled it when it was demolished by the .

Pattern recognition was part of wider research into machine intelligence. This machine was made by physicist Dietrich Prinz, one of Alan Turing's protégés, and Wolfe Mays, a philosophy lecturer. It is an electrical device for testing certain logical statements and helped researchers build human-like qualities into machines using mathematics.
Research into pattern recognition now has widespread commercial and military applications, from driverless cars, fingerprint scanners and robots on battlefields, to surveillance and cybersecurity. Mathematicians work throughout this field.

In 1949 the philosopher Wolfe Mays of the University of Manchester and Dietrich Prinz of Ferranti designed an electronic implementation of Jevons' Logical Piano using relays. As with Jevons, their aim was to facilitate the teaching of logical reasoning.
In the last two weeks of October 1952, Mays and Desmond Paul Henry - a fellow Manchester philosopher-held an exhibition at the University's Christie Library called Jevonsonia'. Jevons' Logical Piano was proudly displayed alongside Mays' and Prinz's Logical Computer.
As Mays, Prinz and others were realising the practical electronic implementations of Jevons' machine, others found different uses for the surplus components of war. In June 1948, The Baby - a machine built by Tom Kilburn and Frederick (Freddie) Williams - ran its first stored program at Manchester. This form of digital computer rapidly proved to be more flexible than its logical counterpart.
Automated reasoning has since been developed entirely on general-purpose digital computers, rather than dedicated logical computers like Jevons', and Manchester has a strong track record in this field.
William Stanley Jevons was a remarkable philosopher, economist and pioneer of computer logic. He believed that good decision making required good logical reasoning, and devised algorithms and machines to automate and teach this reasoning:
“There was a consciousness on my mind that I was the discoverer of the true logic of the future I felt a delight such as one can seldom hope to feel. I remembered only too soon though how unworthy and weak an instrument I was for accomplishing so great a work.”

"Funny how I find myself in love with you
If I could buy my reasoning, I'd pay to lose
One half won't do"
~It's My Life / Talk Talk
It was around '82-'83 that my circle of friends picked-up on the board game Trivial Pursuit which was becoming popular. Myself, I somehow seemed to have an ability to take the clues and pull obscure answers from out of the ether, surprising both myself and everybody else I played with.
There came a point around 1984 when I wrote to the company Selchow & Righter in Canada to ask if an un-mounted lithograph of the board could be had. The company president responded and supplied me with one for free!
I'd already been having photos laminated onto wooden plaques by a company in Rock Island, IL and so I also had them create this decorative and functional piece for me.
Eventually (between moving to new towns and fading popularity of the game) I'd end up selling it on eBay (like so many other things).

Peoples inventiveness will thwart reasoning. This upturned iron was in use as a slow cooker. The door architrave was beginning to char. If a fire had developed and such items were merely found in the debris how would you have ever known? Protection marks would probably be your best clue.
In the course of a game of chess, questions continually arise that test a player’s reasoning skills. Questions such as: “Who has the better position?”, “Should I resolve the tension in the center?”, “How can I improve the placement of my pieces?”. In this long-awaited extension of the classic Best Lessons of a Chess Coach, the reader is invited to take a seat in the classroom of a renowned chess teacher, and learn how to answer such questions while experiencing the beauty, logic, and artistry of great chess games. When Sunil Weeramantry lectures on the games of top grandmasters, one can imagine making decisions alongside them. When he lectures on his own games, one can also experience the personal excitement, disappointment, and satisfaction of a well-contested game of chess. The cumulative effect of studying these lessons is to give the aspiring player a wide range of tools with which to win.
