Luca Pacioli

25 Jan 2022 2 1 74
This portrait of Luca Pacioli, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luca_Pacioli often mistakenly attributed to Jacopo de Barbari, was apparently painted in 1495 (the slip of paper on the desk gives the date). Pacioli is teaching from Euclid, and a copy of one of his own books on mathematics is in the right foreground. This is how mathematics was taught in the Renaissance and indeed for centuries afterwards

Ockham’s Razor

13 Sep 2019 2 79
plato.stanford.edu/entries/ockham The English Scholastic William of Ockham (1287-1347) had stated that one should never assume more entities than necessary. This principle became known as Occam’s razor. Mach had adored it, for it epitomized the economy of thought that he had always sought. Hahn, too embraced the principle, and put it to work in his essay. Superfluous, he said, are all the “shadowy half-beings” encumbering our brain, such as universals, empty space, empty time, substance, Thing-in-itself, the beyond, and of course gods and demons. Away with them all” wrote Hans Hahn ~Page 150
