Animals have intelligence

 Animals have more than what we call instinct. They are able to initiate original actions, thoughts, they can learn. The only limitation they have are evolutionary brain circuits allowing them only certain class of actions. But, their decision how to combine them is #intelligence.

One Approach to Understand Concepts Names in Mathematics

Yes, you can! One of the major hurdles to understand math concepts appears to be, as I call it, the 'misleading language' often used by mathematicians' community. How many times you stared at some mathematical term or equation, and had a feeling you are in front of a wall you are required to climb and go over it, or, even worse, go through it, but you don't have any tools at your disposal to do so? And, perhaps, on top of that, you are pressed by time, for instance during an exam. You felt helpless, with complete absence of any groundbreaking idea how to proceed forward. And, how many times you questioned your mathematical ability by considering your school test results? I have news for you - they are not the only measure of your mathematical powers! So, you are frustrated; you are helpless; even scared what will come if you don't know the math! Well, fear not anymore! I have a remedy for that situation! I have a cannon for that wall! Afte...

How to approach new concepts and references

A reference to a new concept, in a certain knowledge domain, whose meaning we want to learn, has inherent danger. The reference can be, and usually is, quite arbitrary, and at the same time cross-reference the concept whose meaning we are familiar with. Note that a reference to a particular concept can be any word - we do not have to chose a word that initially refers to some more familiar concept. The danger is in the expectations that, somehow, the name of the concept will explain to us concept itself and its inner workings. To overcome this reference drawback observe that what is referenced matters way more than the word we are using as a reference. And the referenced concept has to be understood primarily in the way it is defined - in terms of its defining postulates, its axiomatic boundaries, and possibly its connection via Implicative Truth Synthesis with other concepts and systems. To learn more about the ways we understand, axiomatic boundaries , and Implicative Truth Synthesis...

Implicative Truth Synthesis, Soccer Match, and Electronics Engineering

Let's consider the initial conditions for electronic equipment, lenses, sensors of cameras, electronic circuitry for signal processing.These are all starting points, premises, or even axioms for electronic circuits inside cameras. Then human beings as spectators in front of TV. The TV screen with its light emissions represent the generators of initial premises for the sight receptors in spectators' eyes.. Neural signal, carrying these initial conditions, travels to our brain through neurons, and after some image processing, becomes a representation of the idea of an image - connected with other parts of brain to form a full meaning representing the game's current state, players actions, rules of soccer, the importance of match, which is the final state in the Implicative Truth Synthesis chain of actions. We can see how recognizing and then decoupling a complex system of a a soccer game along axiomatic boundaries helps us define various professions and putting them in th...
