no real reasoning behind this one, other than the fact that i like the plaques & numbers nailed to telegraph poles & that i was eding lots of photos today so i only left the house once to go to the shop for more coke. i took this on the way.

Christopher L. Barrett, Executive Director, Virginia Bioinformatics Institute/Professor of Computer Science, Virginia Tech. Dr. Barrett’s talk entitled “Massively Interactive Systems: Thinking and Deciding in the Age of Big Data"
Abstract: This talk discusses advanced computationally assisted reasoning about large interaction-dominated systems. Current questions in science, from the biochemical foundations of life to the scale of the world economy, involve details of huge numbers and levels of intricate interactions. Subtle indirect causal connections and vastly extended definitions of system boundaries dominate the immediate future of scientific research. Beyond sheer numbers of details and interactions, the systems are variously layered and structured in ways perhaps best described as networks. Interactions include, and often co-create, these morphological and dynamical features, which can interact in their own right. Such “massively interacting” systems are characterized by, among other things, large amounts of data and branching behaviors. Although the amount of associated data is large, the systems do not even begin to explore their entire phase spaces. Their study is characterized by advanced computational methods. Major methodological revisions seem to be indicated.
Heretofore unavailable and rapidly growing basic source data and increasingly powerful computing resources drive complex system science toward unprecedented detail and scale. There is no obvious reason for this direction in science to change. The cost of acquiring data has historically dominated scientific costs and shaped the research environment in terms of approaches and even questions. In the several years, as the costs of social data, biological data and physical data have plummeted on a per-unit basis and as the volume of data is growing exponentially, the cost drivers for scientific research have clearly shifted from data generation to storage and analytical computation-based methods. The research environment is rapidly being reshaped by this change and, in particular, the social and bio–sciences are revolutionized by it. Moreover, the study of socially– and biologically–coupled systems (e.g., societal infrastructures and infectious disease public health policy analysis) is in flux as computation-based methods begin to greatly expand the scope of traditional problems in revolutionary ways.
How does this situation serve to guide the development of “information portal technology” for complex system science and for decision support? An example of an approach to detailed computational analysis of social and behavioral interaction with physical and infrastructure effects in the immediate aftermath of a devastating disaster will be described in this context.
The reasoning for hiring A & I Fire and Water Restoration for Graffiti Removal Services Near Me is that graffiti gives the impression of danger, and dangerous neighborhoods scare off potential customers. People are more likely to avoid your business if you have graffiti on your walls.

Circular Reasoning: The Rise of Flat Earth Belief - Michael Marshall - Winchester Discovery Centre 2019-12-12
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.”
An extract from Jevons' diary (1860)
The day was October 16th, the third Tuesday of the month and history was made. Emancipation Park in Kingston, Jamaica […]
