You work at the college library. You’re in the middle of a quiet afternoon when suddenly, a shipment of 1,280 books arrives. The books are in a straight line, but they're all out of order, and the automatic sorting system is broken. How can you sort the books quickly? Chand John shows how, shedding light on how algorithms help librarians and search engines speedily sort information.

Alyssa Goodman | The Prediction Project || Radcliffe Institute
source: Harvard University 2016年10月18日
As part of the 2016–2017 Fellows’ Presentation Series at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, Alyssa A. Goodman ’17 takes us through the creation of the most modular HarvardX online course yet created, called PredictionX. People have been asking questions about the future both on a global scale and a personal one since the beginning of recorded history. Goodman explores this history of how humanity has predicted its own future, from ancient Mesopotamians reading signs in sheep entrails to modern computer simulations of climate change.
Alyssa A. Goodman is the 2016–2017 Edward, Frances, and Shirley B. Daniels Fellow at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study and the Robert Wheeler Willson Professor of Applied Astronomy at Harvard University.
Patricia Blanchette: Frege's Logicism (Elucidations)
source: Philosophical Overdose 2016年10月22日
Patricia Blanchette discusses Logicism and the work of Gottlob Frege. Logicism is a school of thought in the philosophy of mathematics which tries to reduce mathematics to logic. Gottlob Frege was a 18th-19th century German philosopher and mathematician who made important contributions to the fields of logic, philosophy of language, and philosophy of mathematics. This is an episode of Elucidations, a philosophy podcast from the University of Chicago.

Agency, Morals & the Mind
Morals, Culture and Society
Responsibility as a Social Construction
Catherine Wilson | Anniversary Professor of Philosophy, University of York
From an empirical perspective, it is important for an animal to distinguish between its own doings, the kinds of actions over which it exerts control, and things that 'just happen' to it. However, the distinction is not precise, and the animal is, after all, just a complicated mechanism in which and to which things happen. When we move into the realm of human agency, the distinction between doings and happenings becomes extremely vague, yet at the same time hugely important because of the ways in which we punish people for what we regard as deliberate offenses, including moral offenses and criminal actions. Metaphysicans have tried but have not succeeded in defining freewill and responsibility for us, let alone in showing that they are more than conceptual fictions linked to subjective feelings of ownership, pride, guilt, etc. In this talk, I'll argue that we can and sometimes do employ a notion of the ownership of actions based on intuitive estimates of what social learning can or can't accomplish by way of modifying attitudes and behaviour, and I'll comment on its advantages and disadvantages.

Corey O’Hern - “Mysteries of Sand”
source: Yale University 2016年10月28日
Conventional liquids (such as water, milk, and oil) and solids (such as ice, wood, and metal) are made of atoms that interact via attractive, “sticky” forces. In contrast, dry sand is composed of grains that only interact via purely repulsive forces, which prevent grains from passing through each other. The fact that sand grains are much larger than atoms and are not sticky gives rise to interesting properties that differ from those of conventional solids and liquids. Dr. Corey O’Hern with Thibault Bertrand assisting, explore the Mysteries of Sand as part of Yale’s Center for Research on Interface Structures and Phenomena NSF MRSEC and Pathways to Science program.
The History of Gender and Sexual Identity with P. Sufenas Virius Lupus
source: New Thinking Allowed 2016年10月26日
P. Sufenas Virius Lupus (his spiritual name) is a practicing polytheist and scholar. He is author of A Serpent Path Primer, Ephesia Grammata: Ancient History and Modern Practice, The Phillupic Hymns, The Syncretisms of Antinous, and other devotional books. Under his legal name of Phillip Bernhardt-House, he is author of Werewolves, Magical Hounds, and Dog-Headed Men in Celtic Literature. He is on the social science faculty at Skagit Valley College in Mount Vernon, Washington.
Here he points out that, prior to the Victorian era, there were no specific concepts for homosexuality and heterosexuality in western culture. Ancient peoples had many differing notions of sexual identity. Various ancient priestly cult members were regarded as neither male nor female. Sexual relations in ancient times were often based as much upon social status as sexual identity. Lupus describes his own interest in the ancient cult of Antinous, the young male lover of the Roman emperor Hadrian (who was also married and considered something of a lady’s man). After Antinous drowned in the Nile River, he was deified. Many temples were built in his honor.
New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in "parapsychology" ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He is a past vice-president of the Association for Humanistic Psychology; and is the recipient of the Pathfinder Award from that Association for his contributions to the field of human consciousness exploration. He is also past-president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people are encouraged to cultivate and apply their inner, intuitive abilities.

The Vegan Studies Project | The New School
source: The New School 2016年10月26日
This video registers The New School Food Studies Program (http://newschool.edu/public-engagemen...) and Faculty Alice Crary in a dialogue and Q & A session with author Laura Wright on her book The Vegan Studies Project: Food, Animals, and Gender in the Age of Terror.
The motivations that lead individuals to go vegan, and the way society at large perceives and talks about them is the theme of The Vegan Studies Project: Food, Animals, and Gender in the Age of Terror.
Steeped in critical and literary theory, the book focuses on news, advertising, and popular culture that is very much part of our daily experience. The title itself - meant “in the spirit of play” - suggests a certain proximity of Wright’s work with burgeoning fields of research such as food studies, fat studies, and animal studies. Veganism, which is now very visible in US social and cultural debates about food, health, and the environment, begs for a deeper understanding beyond any easy rebuttal.

Practical Applications of Precognition, Part One: Historical Perspectives, with Marty Rosenblatt
source: New Thinking Allowed 2016年1月13日
Marty Rosenblatt, MS, is a computational physicist who spent his career working in the military and industrial sectors. He is the president of the Applied Precognition Project.
Here he traces the origin of his work in applied precognition to the development of “remote viewing” and its use by the U.S. military intelligence establishment in the mid-1970s. He specifically points to the associative remote viewing (ARV) methodology used for financial forecasting. Several published studies have used this methodology successfully for financial forecasting. He discusses some paradoxes associated with precognition and how he, personally, has come to resolve them.

Many religions envision a radical transformation of reality. The supernatural intervention of God or God-like forces changes everything. What, conceivably, could this new reality be? What, conceivably, could happen next, and next, and next, and then after that, into eternity?

You Don’t Need to be a Visionary – It’s Fine to be a Follower | Simon Sinek
source: Big Think 2016年10月28日
Visionaries know why they get out of bed each day. Do you? Ethnographer and leadership expert Simon Sinek explains how to find direction and fulfillment in your personal and professional life. Sinek's latest book is "Start with Why: How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action" (https://goo.gl/IUeJuD).

Transcript - I don’t know when it happened in the history but we’ve become obsessed with the concept of having a vision, right. And there’s this overwhelming pressure on entrepreneurs or any of us for that matter that we all have to have a vision. People even ask us so what’s your vision? You know what’s your vision in your job? What kind of vision do you want to build or follow? And at the end of the day we’re not all visionaries. We don’t all have big change the world kind of visions. And even if we have some sense of it very few of us are really capable or able of articulating that vision in words so clearly than others could imagine that same world that we imagine.
Sometimes it’s just a feeling. And so I think it puts an unfair stress and an unfair burden on all of us that we have to have a vision. I don’t know. I just want to go to work and be happy and feel like my life and my work is valuable. Do I need more than that? But I do believe we have to find a vision. We have to have direction. We have to have a north star. We have to know where we’re going. It doesn’t have to be the direction we set. It can be the direction that somebody else sets. So it’s very important for us to find a leader or find a company or find a vision in whom we believe so that our work is contributing to building that. So in the civil rights era some may not have been able to clearly articular the vision that they imagined. Read Full Transcript Here: https://goo.gl/aPzubP.
Cognitive Biases, the Psychology of Reasoning & Logical Languages
source: Philosophical Overdose 2013年1月29日
Catarina Duthil Novaes (ILLC/Amsterdam) gives at talk at MCMP titled "Cognitive motivations for treating formalisms as calculi". In The Logical Syntax of Language, Carnap famously recommended that logical languages be treated as mere calculi, and that their symbols be viewed as meaningless; reasoning with the system is to be guided solely on the basis of its rules of transformation. Carnap˙s main motivation for this recommendation seems to be related to a concern with precision and exactness. In my talk, I argue that Carnap was right in insisting on the benefits of treating logical formalisms as calculi, but he was wrong in thinking that enhanced precision is the main advantage of this approach. Instead, I argue that a deeper impact of treating formalisms as calculi is of a cognitive nature: by adopting this stance, the reasoner is able to counter some of her "default" reasoning tendencies, which (although advantageous in most practical situations) may hinder the discovery of novel facts in scientific contexts. One of these cognitive tendencies is the constant search for confirmation for the beliefs one already holds, as extensively documented and studied in the psychology of reasoning literature, and often referred to as confirmation bias/belief bias. Treating formalisms as meaningless and relying on their well-defined rules of formation and transformation allows the reasoner to counter her own belief bias for two main reasons: it 'switches off' semantic activation, which is thought to be a largely automatic cognitive process, and it externalizes reasoning processes; they now take place largely through the manipulation of the notation. I argue moreover that the manipulation of the notation engages predominantly sensorimotor processes rather than being carried out internally: the agent is literally 'thinking on the paper'. The analysis relies heavily on empirical data from psychology and cognitive sciences, and is largely inspired by recent literature on extended cognition (in particular Clark, Menary and Sutton). If I am right, formal languages treated as calculi and viewed as external cognitive artifacts offer a crucial cognitive boost to human agents, in particular in that they seem to produce a beneficial de-biasing effect.

Raj Chetty: Upward Mobility, Innovation and Economic Growth
source: London School of Economics and Political Science 2016年10月27日
Date: Wednesday 26 October 2016
Time: 6.30-8pm
Venue: Old Theatre, Old Building
Speaker: Professor Raj Chetty
Chair: Professor Henrik Kleven
Professor Raj Chetty will give three lectures over three consecutive days in the 2016 Lionel Robbins Memorial Lecture series under the overarching theme of "Improving Equality of Opportunity: new lessons from big data" asking the question "How Can We Improve Economic Opportunities for Low-Income Children?" Raj Chetty will discuss findings from the Equality of Opportunity Project, which uses big data to develop new answers to this important and timely policy question. The presentation will show how children's opportunities to climb the income ladder vary substantially depending upon where they grow up. It will then identify factors that contribute to this geographic variation in opportunities for upward mobility. The talks will conclude by offering policy lessons for how social mobility and economic opportunity can be increased in the next generation.
Raj Chetty is a Professor of Economics at Stanford University. His research combines empirical evidence and economic theory to help design more effective government policies. His work on tax policy, unemployment insurance, and education has been widely cited in media outlets and Congressional testimony.
Henrik Kleven is Professor of Economics at LSE.
The CEP (@CEP_LSE) is an interdisciplinary research centre at the LSE Research Laboratory. It was established by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) in 1990 and is now one of the leading economic research groups in Europe.
The two other lectures that are part of this series are Monday 24 and Tuesday 25 October.
Tracy Kidder and Paul English: "A Truck Full of Money [...]" | Talks at ...
source: Talks at Google 2016年10月27日
Fortune, mania, generosity, genius—the bestselling author of Mountains Beyond Mountains gives us the inspiring story of Kayak.com founder Paul English, an American maverick and a man who had a mind for the age that was coming.
Tracy Kidder, the “master of the nonfiction narrative” (The Baltimore Sun) and author of the bestselling classic The Soul of the New Machine, now gives us the inspiring story of Paul English, a kinetic and unconventional inventor and entrepreneur, who as a boy rebelled against authority. Growing up in working-class Boston, English discovers a medium for his talents the first time he sees a computer. As a young man, despite suffering from what would eventually be diagnosed as bipolar disorder, he begins his pilgrim’s journey through the ups and downs in the brave new world of computers. Relating to the Internet as if it’s an extension of his own mind, he discovers that he has a gift for building creative teams of people, becoming a pied piper of geeks. His innovative management style, success, and innate sense of fair play inspire intense loyalty. Early on, one colleague observes: “Someday this boy’s going to get hit by a truck full of money, and I’m going to be standing beside him.” Yet when English makes a fortune as co-founder of the travel website Kayak.com, the first thing he thinks about is how to give it away. “What else would you do with it?” he asks. Money, after all, is meant to be moved. “Hoarding it is a disaster, because it goes against what money was created for.” The second thing he thinks is, “What’s next?”
With the power of a consummate storyteller, Tracy Kidder casts a fresh, critical, and often humorous eye on the way new ideas and new money are reshaping our culture. A Truck Full of Money is a mesmerizing portrait of an irresistibly endearing man who is indefatigable, original, and as unpredictable as America itself.
