Hypatia the Greek Philosopher Skinned Alive with Seashells

Knowledge can be a wonderful thing, but in the case of the ancient philosopher and mathematician Hypatia of Alexandria, it also led to her doom. Hypatia was one of the most important intellectuals of Byzantine Empire in the 4th Century, and she was also a woman. Her story is both inspiring and terrifying. Hypatia was born around 355, when the Roman empire had just split, leaving Alexandria in a disconnected state of religious and social unrest. Members of all religions - Christians, Jews, and pagans - were now living together in perpetual strife. Over the next few decades, their constant clashes would wipe out even more of the library's contents as they struggled to define their new boundaries. The Egyptian city of Alexandria was founded by Alexander the Great in 331 BC - about 600 years before Hypatia was born. Alexandria became a culturally sophisticated region of the world in a rather short amount of time. It was not only a beautiful city, but it held the Library of Alexandria, ...

Cognitive Biases, Effects, and Fallacies

Nethrapal @nethrapal · Jun 7 Anchoring Bias **Which Means?** You rely heavily on the first piece of information you receive. **For Example:** Seeing a high starting price makes discounts seem better. Anchoring Bias occurs when an individual depends too heavily on an initial piece of information (the "anchor") to make subsequent judgments during decision making. Once the anchor is set, there is a bias toward adjusting or interpreting other information to reflect the "anchored" information. This bias can significantly impact various decisions, such as negotiations, pricing, and estimates, as the first piece of information shapes one's perspective and expectations. Authority Bias **Which Means?** You trust opinions from perceived authorities more. **For Example:** Trusting a health tip because a doctor mentioned it. Authority Bias is the tendency to attribute greater accuracy to the opinion of an authority figure (unrelated to its content) and be more influenced by...

The Consulting Trap

♦️ *BOOK* https://cup.columbia.edu/book/the-consulting-trap/9781773636672?utm_content=buffer4f856&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer&s=08 *The Consulting Trap* does a deep dive into how governments have become hooked on private consultancy firms with dire consequences for democratic decision-making, public accountability and accessible public services. Hurl and Werner contend that *firms like McKinsey, Accenture, KPMG and Deloitte increasingly take responsibility for core public services, trapping governments in cycles of dependency. Through orchestrating tax avoidance for the wealthy while engineering austerity for the rest, they show how these firms have created the foundations for the deepening privatization of the public services, further entrenching their power.* Drawing on case studies from Canada and around the world, Hurl and Werner investigate how big consultancies leverage social networks, institutionalize relationships, mine and comm...

We took the top 50 written marks in each category and analyzed the impact of interview marks. The results were surprising For SC category We took top 50 written marks of SC category and analyzed interview marks.

There were very few who were given above 171 marks. In scheduled category, there is a greater probability of getting lower interview marks if the candidate has scored a higher written marks For General Category We took top 50 written marks of General ca...
