    Personal Finance AND Banking and Investment
    Add:
    Basic Contract Law as Ethics (simple)
    Basic Project Management (simple: task, card, gantt)
    Basic Behvioral, Micro, Macro econ (graphical only)
    Basic Statistics (Graphical only)
    (And no it’s not difficult.)
    One I had in a private catholic boy’s school that was perhaps the most valuable was:
    Friendship, Marriage, and Family (awesome)

  • Criteria for Religiosity: Neuroticism > Empathizing > Indoctrination 1. Neurotic

    Criteria for Religiosity:
    Neuroticism > Empathizing > Indoctrination
    1. Neuroticism creates a need.
    2. Empathizing finds the solution in social ritual
    3. Indoctrination can occur independently of both.

    four failings: 1) Claiming that your opinion matters over the evidence. 2) claiming your independence includes exercise of vote to force demands others to do your wishes despite the evidence, rather than limit the behavior of others to responsibility and non-criminality. 3) people of color and women were ‘less’ until educated indoctrinated and made equally responsible. And making them educated, indoctrinated and equally responsible required economic investment that wasn’t previously possible 4) and women and people of color are still not voting to be equally responsible but just the opposite.

  • READING LIST: WHAT ARE THE BEST NEUROSCIENCE BOOKS FOR BEGINNERS? by Alessandro

    READING LIST: WHAT ARE THE BEST NEUROSCIENCE BOOKS FOR BEGINNERS?
    by Alessandro Crimi PhD, University of Copenhagen
    (with adds my your’s truly)

    Neuroscience is a very broad term for a set of overlapping topics from different disciplines.
    First of all, I would separate
    … 1) clinical neuroscience from
    … 2) psychological/behavioural/cognitive neuroscience.
    … 3) Then there is computational neuroscience (also called neuroinformatics) which are a series of mathematical models to study or simulate at microscopic level certain aspects of the brain or groups of neurons.
    … 4) Lastly, with the raise of high resolution MRI, we have an emergence of neuroimage which is now a field on its own.
    Those topics are still full with open questions and complicated concepts. It is hard to mention books which are not superficial and delve a bit:

    1) Despite that he won’t answer my PM’s and requests for a suggested reading list 😉 I’ll recommend a popular press book “Innate” by Kevin Mitchell, which is about as entry level as is useful.

    2) If you want to have a broader view, which is not really academic, touches other fields, and are relatively lighter than what I mentioned before, I enjoyed recently the latest books of Antonio Damasio “the strange order of things” and Sean Carrol “the big picture” (mostly a criticism to Decartes and a revisiting of Schroedinger and Friston)

    3) As an introductive book for all aspects I would recommend “Neuroscience” by Dale Purves, George J. Augustine, David Fitzpatrick, William C. Hall, Leonard E. White. It is probably among the most used textbook for introductory undergraduate course. I think it is even recommended by a Coursera course from Duke university. I think we are now at least at the 6th edition. The alternative is “Principles of Neural Science” by Eric R. Kandel et al.

    4). For an introduction to neurobiology and some behavioral science I recommend “Cognitive neuroscience” of Gazzaniga, Ivry and Mangun.

    5). For Neuroimage and brain-connectivity the first book of Olaf Sporns, the alternative is the book of Bullmore, Fornito and Zalesky.

    6). Since I can imagine Izhikevich’s book are not easy to digest (I had a lot of headaches), a start for computational neuroscience is the Sterrat et al. text.
    “Principles of Computational Modeling in Neuroscience”

    And of course, you can watch my videos on the subject, where I focus on an operational understanding of how information works through the brain.

  • TEN REMAINING GREAT FLAWS IN HUMAN THOUGHT (V2. Added Four.) 1. The search for i

    TEN REMAINING GREAT FLAWS IN HUMAN THOUGHT
    (V2. Added Four.)
    1. The search for ideal truth rather than incrementally testifiable (performative) truth. (Failing to grasp truth in general).
    2. The search for justification(proof) rather than falsification(survival).
    3. The failure to distinquish between the reducibility of laws to math (before, physical, statistics), computation (during, behavioral, operations, operationalism) and simulation (after, evolutionary, survivals, supply-demand, economics), and the spectrum of rules of disambiguation (grammars, paradigms) we use to describe them. (In general the problem of ‘mathiness’, especially in physics.)
    4. The search for inconsistent utilities (paradigms) rather than a hierarchy of consistent first principles (universal paradigm), by the first principle of evolutionary computation.
    5. The search for the ideal person, behavior, wants, means, and ends, rather than means of cooperation between male and female opposites.
    6. The search for the good instead of the true, not-false, possible, and not-irreciprocal, from which we choose possible recirpocal goods.
    7. The search for positive law of thou-shall, limiting possibilities, vs negative laws of thou-shall-not, leaving open infinite possibilities.
    8. The search for political uniformity as a static optimum rather than competing diversities as an evolutionary optimum – the search for predictable certainty rather than evolutionary and adaptive uncertainty.
    9. The search for a static political model rather than an adaptive political model for conditions of war, vs going concern, vs windfalls, and how to transition between them as needed.
    10. The search for a single uniform economy rather than a hierarchy of economies suiting the capacity of rsponsibilty of individuals and groups.

    Every one of these falsehoods is hostile to the first principle of the universe: evolutionary computation, and our condition in the capture and transformation of energy per person, yielding us the greatest prosperity with which to make the greatest range of choices that will as a consequence, repeat the cycle, of evolutionary computation, and the improvement of our condition by increasing the capture and transformation of energy.
