THINKING FAST AND SLOW

In this Redmond's Review, Darren covers two different levels of thinking.

Thinking Fast and Slow is this review by Darren Redmond in Redmond’s Review!

Here’s a quick test for you:

Molly goes into a store and buys a bat and a ball for a total of $1.10.

The bat is $1 more than the ball.

How much was the ball?

You most likely got it wrong.

The book I will review this week, it is written by Nobel Prize winner in Economics Daniel Kahneman, titled, “Thinking Fast and Slow.”

In this Redmond’s Review, Darren covers thinking on two levels.

It is important to note that this book is scholarly in nature. Meaning it is not written to keep your interest, but rather to bring forth facts about how we process information and think that you will find very interesting.

Level 1, and Level 2 thinking, are the bases of the construct of this book.

They are not what you think. Rather think about the synergy, between presumption and inference chunking when it comes to causality, and analytical probing and data mining for answers. How we sometimes rely too much on one or the other. Without the proper balance two modes of “thinking”, we may find ourselves often coming up with the wrong answer. Even when giving the fact that we have come up with the right answer, we may find ourselves more attached to the wrong answer then actually giving credence to the right one.

So here is the question again.

Here’s a quick test for you.

Molly goes into a store and buys a bat and a ball for a total of $1.10.

The bat is $1 more than the ball

How much was the ball?

You most likely got it wrong.

It’s the way we think and make plausible assumptions.

Nothing is wrong with it in general it is just the way we think.

Read this book if you find the process of thought interesting.

ASTEROID HITS EARTH – NOT!

ASTEROID HITS EARTH – NOT!

Between September 15 – 28 of 2015 (essentially, September 23rd) is slated to be the range of days when an asteroid is to appear out of nowhere to strike the earth, causing an immeasurable catastrophic result with so many casualties it would cause a financial collapse and incorporate martial law.

The purpose of this article is to alert the general population of the fear-mongering by a select few groups and entities who are trying to make money, deceive (for idiotic reasons) and gain notoriety. If you want to blame the government, as usual, go ahead, but I wouldn’t give them much credit. They are humans, just like you. This stupid activity has been going on for a few months and recent history has shown a number of these errant prophecies to be the same or similar, as has been occurring over the years of recorded history.

Here is one of my favorite images from the past year or so indicating a must watch video:

DEAD in 6 MONTHS!

 

This prompts the following statement: “We’re all going to die. I’m going to die, you’re going to die…just not today.” Now, stop for a moment and be realistic, in fact, try a bit of logic? If it is real, all bets are off, right? My opinion is that yes, at some point, something from outside earth will make contact; however, humans are horrible at keeping secrets and those who are in key positions would not be wanting to lie about it. Further, even with our fairly obscured atmosphere, one can see very well past it. There are thousands who are keeping their ‘eyes to the skies’ and something as large as an ‘earth-shattering’ asteroid would be detected. Yes, I understand there will be detractors to these statements, but we’ll talk about that on September 29th, okay?

Asteroid Hit Earth March 2015

 

Oops, sorry, we missed another date for extinction…doesn’t that just frost you?

So, let’s move forward to see what NASA has to say about this? Please read this (or just view the headlines and pictures) of this good article provided by WIRED.co.uk. I like how this is presented and you will understand a bit further down the article.

NASA DENIES WORLD-ENDING ASTEROID 9.2015

So, what do you think, now? Yes, the financial market has been hit, recently. Do you think it is because the financial marketeers are protecting assets and holdings because of a cataclysmic situation? Nothing could be further from the truth, actually. Interdependent, recent, global financial events have occurred. It is cyclic. Pure and simple…that is mead for another article, but not this one. All financial entities, businesses, organizations and yes, even governments and family power structures want success and growth.

Asteroid Chelyabinsk

There are events occurring all the time, as is the above picture of the recent Russian meteor close encounter event.

In the scheme of things and the totality of time, events have occurred of monumental proportions, they are occurring and they will continue to occur until there is notification we must take action. And, hopefully, that will be a prudent one.

Now, here is the good news, none of us get out of this, alive. Have you heard of the “Fountain of Youth” or an “Escape Space Vehicle” being really discovered and/or being implemented? This, too, is mead for another article.

As promised from an above statement, since, I am sure people can still read? I am really looking forward to the 2015-16 US Football Season, YES! Gotta love life! Just give to those you love the life you like? Truly, it will return to you…
