우주란 무엇인가

우주란

내가 아직 미처 쓰지 못한 페이퍼들이 나를 기다리고 있는 곳이다.

삶이란

내가 아직 미처 쓰지 못한 페이퍼들을 쓰는 과정이다.

어떤 페이퍼보다

어떤 아이디어를 가지고 있냐가 잡마켓에서 사실 더 중요한 요소라고.....

오늘 들었는데 (특히 탑 스쿨들에선...)


결국 결과들을 보면 좋은 아이디어와 좋은 페이퍼를 둘 다 가지고 있는 사람이 승리하기 때문에 크게 도움되는 어드바이스라고 보긴 힘들다--;

the fallacy of ...

"Social objects are those objects, like “marriages,” “greetings,” “Presidents,” “questions,” and “soccer goals,” that exist only as and how they are enacted through social processes. Natural
objects, even though they have a substance of their own and obey laws of their own, can only be “understood” by rendering them in conceptual terms because we cannot “see” them as they “are.” While this idea was elaborated by Kant in the 1760s, the point took on new meaning in the early 20th century in the face of a strong tendency at the time to treat the social understanding of natural objects as the real objects. Alfred NorthWhitehead coined the phrase “the fallacy of misplaced concreteness,” in the late 1920s to refer to the positivist practice of treating concepts and abstractions as though they accurately represented the concreteness of things. The human experience of objects, he pointed out, is fundamentally limited by concepts, and thus, the limits of human knowledge are also conceptual."

By Anne Rawls

I've heard this fallacy a lot of times but didn't know its specific meaning.


hostility is fading

"Fortunately, there are signs that this hostility is fading. While many sociologists are too quick to resist models of morality that are informed by biology and psychology, contemporary work at the boundaries of social, behavioral, and biological sciences is becoming more nuanced. Researchers are growing more and more interested in the interplay between biological potentialities, individual differences, and micro and macrodynamics of the social environment (e.g., Shanahan and Hofer 2005, Freese 2008, Adkins and Vaisey 2009, Turkheimer et al. 2003). More specifically, many biologically and cognitively influenced models of morality are not hostile to social factors but are explicitly designed to incorporate them (e.g., Haidt and Graham 2009, Oishi et al. 2009). "

흔적















In-N-Out 버거 컵 밑에 몰래 새겨져있는 "요한복음 3:16" (성경의 핵심 중의 핵심 구절 중 하나...)
크리스쳔 비즈니스들 중에 이런 거 하는 기업들이 있음.

모든 것이 흔적을 찾는게 재밌고 중요하다.
흔적은 어디에나 있다.
