''You don't think it is at all strange that one man from so far away was able to kill and injure so many people in such a short period of time? Why is it nearly every other mass shooting there are endless details about the situation and the shooter along with their motives plastered all over, yet this incident just suddenly vanished from public consciousness without any of that examination? Stop being so willfully ignorant.'' I don't actually, why is it strange? Was this case not investigated, where did you see that?

''Eyewitness testimony — it’s often thought of as solid evidence in criminal cases, but researchers including Iowa State University’s Gary Wells have found that our memories aren’t as reliable as we think. Sometimes, we can even build false recollections about people we only think we saw.''
https://www.psychologicalscience.org/uncategorized/myth-eyewitness-testimony-is-the-best-kind-of-evidence.html

Considering how insanely stressful this event was, it's not weird at all.

Who said the case wasn't investigated? Now you are literally making up things and attributing them to me instead of arguing what I actually said. That is called a strawman and is a common logical fallacy. Furthermore it is a clear demonstration of your bias, because you aren't even critically examining any of the information that is presented before you project your own concepts of what you think it is upon it. I said in other cases the information is made public and plastered all over, and in this case they barely released any information and the media was quick to bury it, which is very unusual considering how hard they beat the dead horse of any mass shooting in almost every other case.

Your link doesn't prove anything. I never said witness testimony is infallible. I did however say errors in witness testimony are usually related to mistaken identity or mistakes in relatively minor details. Stress doesn't make you hallucinate entire teams of armed men. Furthermore there are now multiple witness statements coming out that state there were other shooters, I guess they are all hallucinating huh? You are so obviously terrified of having to adjust your world view to incorporate the possibility of this new information. You are looking for any excuse at all to dismiss the mounting evidence that something other than what was reported happened because you can not handle the cognitive dissonance. You aren't examining or arguing the issues, you are summarily dismissing them.

"Stress doesn't make you hallucinate entire teams of armed men. " according to science it does. Stress and anxiety can cause hallucinations.

Ive also seen plenty of news about the incident and even a recollection of the events prior to the attack, perhaps you are hallucinating too.

''are logically true'' Can you explain further what logically true means?

This will answer your question.

Logical truth
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_truth

But it doesn't say anything about how to determine whether something is a logical truth or not... how are you ever going to know that your logical truth is actually a logical truth? You simply cannot test it in ''all situations''

You are correct that it is very difficult to think of universally accepted ideas about what the generic properties of logical truths are or should be.

If you want to understand how it can potentially be done you have to dive into the topic at a far deeper level then the simplified summary I linked above.

This would probably be a good place to start if you have an interest but fair warning it is challenging and dry reading.

https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/logical-truth/

As a philosophical matter it seems nice but not as science. A logical truth is 100% true in all situations, right? That can exist, the problem is, how can you know that? Have you been in all of those possible situations and if you haven't, how can you claim it's a logical truth?

Logical truth
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_truth

But it doesn't say anything about how to determine whether something is a logical truth or not, it seems basically impossible, for instance, this segment:

This is to say that they are considered to be such that they could not be untrue and no situation could arise which would cause us to reject a logical truth. It must be true in every sense of intuition, practices, and bodies of beliefs. However, it is not universally agreed that there are any statements which are necessarily true.

This is clearly impossible, how are you ever going to know that your logical truth is actually a logical truth? You simply cannot test it in ''all situations''. Logically, logical truths are not logical, LOL.

Except that there is absolutely no historical evidence that this mythological Jesus person ever existed.

And you base your “truth” on this fact, how gullible can you be?

The quality of your replies have been declining lately. This one in particular was especially poor.

What I have demonstrated above is that the quoted remarks of Jesus in Matthew 22 are logically true. This truth is derived from logic and does not depend in any way on an argument from authority Biblical or otherwise.

Discussions of the historical evidence of Jesus are interesting I am sure but entirely unrelated to what I wrote.

Hey guys, I have a website, www.dailytoken.co basically a mail list and I have been sending news pretty much everyday to my subs, however mailchimp, the service I was using, has blocked me after I sent some mails about ICO's and a few other things since their ToS does not allow it, do you guys know a good service for crypto?
If I was you, I'd not rely on any third party services and would implement my own email provider using a cloud or something like AWS SES. It takes little technical knowledge to set one up. Anyway, below are the one's I think can help you pass that ICO Block.

https://www.sendinblue.com/
https://eu.getresponse.com/

I would certainly like to not rely on 3rd party services but I really have no clue on how to use any of that, I might just make an announcement asking for someone who knows how to do it, thanks!

328  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Crypto Mail List - I need suggestions on: July 20, 2019, 11:39:45 AM
So I have a mail list with crypto users and I'm sending daily mails about relevant news and the state of the market (technical analysis) but I'm wondering what else would people like. Perhaps upcoming relevant ICO's or ICO's airdrops, maybe a ''undervalued coin of the week'' with TA and Fundamental Analysis, nice giveaways?

The website is www.dailytoken.co it doesnt really contain much right now but you can sub if you want to check the daily emails. Im doing a "promising ICOs of the month" today.

I think that it would be nice if you send some surveys to your email subscribers and ask them first.You could use Surveymonkey or Google Surveys.
Based on their answers,you could segment them into smaller email lists,targeted around certain topics(if you can do it with your email autoresponder service) and provide more relevant content to the different niche email lists.


Yes, I think I will be doing that, I have been having some problems with my provider though, mailchimp as they do not allow me to send emails about ICO's and most things related to crypto so I'm going to switch.

Science Says: Religion Is Good For Your Health

Theologists, scientists and thought leaders have attempted for centuries to understand the impact that religion can have on human beings; both mentally and physically. And it is commonly accepted around that world that religion and spirituality are among the most important of cultural factors – giving structure and meaning to behaviors, value systems and experiences.

Thus, there is ample reason to believe that faith in a higher power is associated with health, and in a positive way. For example, researchers at the Mayo Clinic concluded, “Most studies have shown that religious involvement and spirituality are associated with better health outcomes, including greater longevity, coping skills, and health-related quality of life (even during terminal illness) and less anxiety, depression, and suicide. Several studies have shown that addressing the spiritual needs of the patient may enhance recovery from illness.”

Cool

It's not a surprise, it probably is. Believing you are going to heaven and that you are not dying for real it's a nice way to stop depression, anxiety, etc. The only problem is that it's not real.

Some falsehood is far better than 100% invented stuff, dont you think?

All you are saying is falsehood and 100% falsehood. Religion is simply the thing that people do to comfort themselves because the future is scary otherwise. Science is the thing that people do to change their future. Science theory is the thing that people believe in when they can't find the answers in science.

In other words, science theory believed in is religion. Religion without science theory covers far more aspects of life, and is way more reliable.

Cool

"Religion without science theory covers far more aspects of life, and is way more reliable"

Can you name a specific example? In what way is your religion mofe reliable?

Modern science is a development of religion, religion which has been around way longer than science.

The development of the wheel was not a modern science development. More than likely it was done with the ideals of religion behind it. Certainly the people who developed it were way more religion minded than science minded. Yet science uses the wheel in one form or another in just about everything it does.

Science is simply another branch of religion.

Cool

Can you explain which religious ideals led to the invention of the wheel?

I actually expected something nice, instead its the same bullshit, essentially he found out what, faith? Lol, how the fuck is that an eureka moment, we choose what to believe? No shit, does that mean its true tho? Meh same ol philosophical pile of shit with 0 real evidence about anything.

Your stupidity is actually embarrassing. Everybody lives by faith, because nobody knows for a fact that something bad won't happen the next minute. We might have good guestimations. We might even have some good estimations on occasion. But we don't know. We all live by faith, but people like you don't even know what it is that we have faith in.

Cool

Rofl you just proved my point, as you said we might have guestimations and what not but we don't know which is exactly my point, faith does not lead to the truth and you just agreed with me lol.

I went way farther with your point than you said. The point of my point was to show you that everything that you suggested is the standard way that life works, not something that is unique to anybody or any group. You and I live by faith all the time. The difference is that I know wherein my faith is placed. Yours has a lot of holes in it, showing not that you don't have faith. But that you don't know the source of your own faith.

Cool

Knowing where your faith is doesn't make it real. You place your faith in the bible and others in other religions, again, faith is not discovering the truth, which is what really matters.

That's what I have been trying to tell you. Faith in God is the thing that shows truth that is most important. Faith is science shows some truth, but there is a whole lot of falsehood in science... like, science theory... like, Big Bang and Evolution Theories.

Cool

Some falsehood is far better than 100% invented stuff, dont you think?

Doesn't look like it to me at all.

I don't think that the bull market has even entered the major stages of bullishness, fear of missing out, and euphoria yet. Prices have rose a crap ton over the last 3-4 months, yes, but nowhere to the scale of 2017, or what I'd expect to be the peak of the market.

If you look at this chart, I think that the more likely scenario is that we're currently in the first bear trap.



Markets will consolidate at a lower price before testing the $10k once again. I remain bullish for the long run despite people's concerns about Libra, because ultimately that has nothing to do with bitcoin's fundamentals.

People have been using that graph since 2017 in any way it fits them. The first line until the "bear trap" looks nothing like what we had these months, the uptrend was far more pronounced. That graph also doesnt mention any kind of % and its really useless when it comes to predicting price movements.
337  Economy / Speculation / Re: 2017 Crash DejaVu? on: July 16, 2019, 06:08:07 PM
Back in 2017, around November, there was a massive drop from 7700 to 5760 or so (25% decrease), you know what happened two weeks later? Price went up to 11300. From 11k it went down to 4-digits again, especifically 9300 (18% decrease), and what happened next? We touched 16k. We saw similar behaviour all the way up until we touched the last ATH.

So, these massive price swings are common in a bull run. Right now, I don't expect a massive crash, quite the opposite, i'm expecting the price to go above the 13k barrier in the upcoming weeks. In the event that the price actually continues to go down from here, fine by me, cheap is always good.

Yeah but going from ~$3k to $14k seems like a bull run already, no?

Is it me or are the 2 last monthly candlesticks looking eerily similar? Similar uptrends before as well. Could we experience a huge crash like in 2017 again? At least the RSI is not similar but still

You can create a simple algorithm with a number of questions to see the interests of people as you can ask them for cookies files to help you improve the quality of news you provided to them.
I do not like the news that talk about analysis and opinions of others or advertising new ICOs, but a link to important news in twitter or facebook with the price, for example, when the price rise get the most important news that led to the high price and so on.

I do the TA myself though not copied from others. Well i know they are crypto users but a list of questions could be helpful, thanks.
