Why Nations Fail? 从日本的“三ない運動”,到大陆的“禁摩限电”,在现实世界中都落得实质性失败。 从“暴走族”到“鬼火少年”,这些边缘文化群体,反而都成为了“国家失败”的见证人。 image
It's been shown that we're generally not that great at logical thinking. It took over 100,000 years for Homo to evolve. But Venn diagrams didn't appear until less than 150 years ago. The four-element Venn diagram only came about less than 50 years ago, and the connection with prime numbers has only really been understood for the last 20 years. Even worse is the 'built-in coding' within certain cultural groups. When expressing time in months, they use a vertical coordinate system like 'up' (上) and 'down' (下); yet when shifting to days, they switch to a horizontal coordinate system of 'forward' (前) and 'back' (后). More troubling still, two entirely distinct markers, '明' and '昨', are interposed between them. However, there never ever be '昨月'.
1600 A.D,不到 10 年之间,人类发明了显微镜和望远镜。科学观测的被拓展,进而推动了科学认知系统的发展。在下来的 400 年中,工业化突飞猛进。对于不同的文化部落,世界大不相同。 1977 A.D,Voyager 1 任务启动,直至现在仍在继续。这架人造飞行器与地球之间的距离,已经接近 1 “光日”。当我们说“世界”的时候,所指的空间概念,是否还一样呢?
因为觉得“英国工业革命时期用两岁童工”这样的中文网络谣言过于违背常识,做了点调查。有“网友”指认,来自于《资本论》的记述……嗯,这就撞到枪口上了。 二十一世纪了,不难找到原版。其中明明是“Man findet in dieser Industrie Kinder von 2 und 2½ Jahren verwandt",怎么就变成了“In this industry are to be found employed children of 2 and 2½ years.”…… 二十一世纪,都过去四分之一了啊。 📄.pdf
