Christian Selig, MD John Rosster Dajjal Dr. Heather Berlin Daniel Dennett His best message IMO wasn't about religion or minds, but about his didactic way of explaining most of the counterintuitive results of biological evolution.
'Competence without comprehension' is a great idea of Darwin's, and Dennett explained it in a way that made it 'click'. 💡

Dominus Clarus Opinions.txt Austen Allred Neco This. Without understanding that a database relation (with distinct 'rows') a set of tuples/records, the programmer cannot SQL their way out of a paper bag.
The entire relational model of data is built upon discrete mathematics. There is no way to get around it and be skilled.
Daniel Propson It depends on what you mean by 'smaller'. There are 2 possibilities:
1️⃣ If S⊆T, then S is smaller than T.
2️⃣ If there is a 1-to-1 mapping, then the two sets have the same cardinality. (One is not 'smaller' than the other.)
For infinite sets, both can be simultaneously true.
Freek Wiedijk 🎲 An inference line lets you write (to the right) a reference and leave the work to the reader. Frege who came up with the original turnstile in his ConceptScript, also introduced this inference line shorthand (but with the reference to the left).
Freek Wiedijk 🎲 The arrow is an object-language expression. The turnstile and horizontal line are meta-language expressions at the inferential and meta-inferential level respectively. There are sequent calculi that go all the way up to meta-meta-….omega level and beyond!
