Първият път, когато срещнах Дилън Рийд, установих зрителен контакт с различна част от тялото му. Все пак, аз съм много добра в едно - да бъда срамежлива, да не говорим, че, за съжаление, съм и доста доста умела в това да се правя на глупак пред човек, който ме привлича. По онова време не знаех нищо за него, но се оказа, че Дилън беше звездата на футболния отбор, един от малкото играчи, за които се очакваше да влязат в НФЛ, и в крайна сметка, го срещах из целия ... |

Plato is outstanding among philosophers, more or less inventing philosophy as we know it in the West. In the "Republic" he begins with the question "What is justice?", but this question soon broadens into an investigation of what is real and how we can know it, so defining the three main areas of philosophy – ethics, metaphysics and epistemology - for the next 2000 years and more. But Plato is remarkable also for the beauty of his writing. The allegory ... |

Whether buying a new house or changing job, designing a new product or getting married, our decisions are governed by implicit predictions of how things are likely to turn out. The problem is, we're not very good at it. In a landmark, twenty-year study, Wharton professor Philip Tetlock showed that the average expert was only slightly better at predicting the future than a layperson using random guesswork. Tetlock's latest project - an unprecedented, government-funded forecasting ... |
