I heard many great things about this book and i am rather disappointed, i
thought i missed it so I read this book through 3 times and every time i
read it it made less and less sense.
The character development was shotty, unrelatable and unbelievable, the plot
kept changing along with character perspectives the actually story never
really getting anywhere, it was written as if it was a bunch of stories that
someone decided to string together with random sentences and pieces of

Our Father’s Plan of Happiness
First, let’s be absolutely clear on what God wants for each of us. He wants
us to have all of the blessings of eternal life. He wants us to become like
Him. To help us do that, He has given us a plan. This plan is based on
eternal truths and is not altered according to the social trends of the day.
At the heart of this plan is the begetting of children, one of the crucial
reasons Adam and Eve left the Garden of Eden (see 2 Nephi 2:19–25; Moses 5:

我觉得你对科学哲学的理解非常片面。定义、分类、类比推理这些都不是科学、逻辑的
必要条件。下定义,分类,或许对人文学科比较重要吧?
科学认知的核心是可验、可观测、可重复,科学认知的建立并不需要有清晰的分类这个
前提,比如完全可以建立在fuzzy sets基础上,一个模糊的set。("An extension of
logic which attempts to deal with imprecise information such as information
conveyed through vague predicates or information associated with so-called
fuzzy sets, sets in which membership is a matter of degree. )
逻辑推导也和分类没有必然联系,只关心conclusion能不能从premises中得到。比如判
断ad hominem这样一个逻辑谬误,就不需要任何分类——从一个命题变成了人身攻击,
就是逻辑谬误,这不需要你对原命题下定义或进行任何分类。

I do mean speculation which is not predication. One example is IA-64's
ld.s/chk.s instruction. With such instructions, software can do speculative
load using ld.s and perform computation on the loaded value. Software uses
chk.s to check if there is exception due to ld.s. If the load cause
exceptions, they are deferred until chk.s checks them and jumps to proper
recovery code (which is part of the software instead of OS). Other mach

I guess one reason is that, in CS you have to worry about computational
complexity. Although first-order predicate logic subsumes some of the logics
you mentioned, it's semi-decidable. To be practical, we need those less
expressive but more efficient logics, e.g., modal logic and description
logic.
For non-monotonic logic, it was proposed because in AI systems we may often
have to change our previous belief. In mathematics, you don't need to do
this.

Stevey's Google Platforms Rant
I was at Amazon for about six and a half years, and now I've been at Google

-- an impression that has been reinforced almost daily -- is that Amazon
does everything wrong, and Google does everything right. Sure, it's a
sweeping generalization, but a surprisingly accurate one. It's pretty crazy.
There are probably a hundred or even two hundred different ways you can

The way database resolves query starts from actual data,
and then apply filters, does joins etc. Not the other way
around. This is how fundamentally databases work.
In this case, 1st query is resolved by applying predicates
on table B and table C (i.e. B.ITEM_B = 123). From here,
generates the necessary B.ID, and C.ID which can then be
compared with A.ID. If B.ITEM_B = 123 generates NULL set,
there won't even be a join operation.
Also, prior join / set operations, usually there are internal
My application has a form to collect users' inputs, which are passed to a
parameterized SQL query over a table. When a user skips some boxes in the
form, the query should have no predicates on the corresponding attributes.
An extreme case is if the user inputs nothing, the query should return the
entire table.
My question is if the parameterized query is prefixed, what values are
supposed to be used for the parameters whose boxes are empty?

History repeats itself. This is exactly what I predicated a few years ago.
“
After all it's not the first time that Microsoft has dumped developers to
bring in something that might or might not be better - see Visual Basic 6
for example. Microsoft tends not to come out in the open and say that a
technology is dead instead it tends to simply ignore it and allow it to
wither.”
All companies are working hard to provide that now.

Stacking too many views masks performance issue.
Firstly, you might return many unneccesary columns via a complex stacked
views, but actually you only want to return several columns, which can be
done easily using a simpler query against tables.
Secondly, stack more views on top of more views may break down predicate
pushing.
thirdly, stack too many views may cause optimizer not to generate the
optimized excution plan. (subqueries may not be merged efficently)
The gain of using normal view to c
Are we still talking about "the pros and cons about stacking views on top of
each other" or you want to talk sth more general about views?
Didn't get it.
At least you do not break down predicate pushing due to stacking too many
views.
Besides complex sql doesn't necessarilly confuse db optimizer. But if you

I think that you misunderstood.
Predicate logic is merely the fundamental of the query mechanism.
It has nothing to do with physical representation.
However, in practice, triples are used to store the knowledges, as in
prolog, decl, RDF etc. Triples, in a way, are EAV models (entity,
attribute, values). Sometimes it may be represented as
target>, or action
in c++, define a class, the predicate then using sort in stl.
in java, define a class implements the interface icomparable then using the
sort in collection class.
these really depends on the CPU it runs on...
anyway, for 1, it probably makes no difference
for 2, I think it makes a difference on performance critical code. branch
mis-predication usually has a pretty high cost
(? expr pat ...) — applies expr to the value to be matched, and checks
whether the result is a true value; the additional pats must also match; i.e
., ? combines a predicate application and an and pattern. However, ?, unlike
and, guarantees that expr is matched before any of the pats.
Don't pass in a Java callback or predicate.
Instead, write the function in functional style - construct an expression
tree using Java objects. Then the Java - C layer can parse and convert this
expression tree into native C function structure. It won't be a single
function, but at least it can be executed in pure C code.

别忘了query。一般search用的是什麽条件?(exact match, range, predicate)每次返
回多少笔数据?(as a percentage of whole table size). These will affect your
choice of data structure.
Most of the time, the row storage is handled separately from the "indexes",
i.e. additional data structures which accelerate these query operations.
Row operation is usually cheap in memory.
It is the trade-off between the maintenance overhead of these indexes, and
the gain from query acceleration, that determines the best data structure
