  1. A quotation from Richard Feynman

    In physics the truth is rarely perfectly clear, and that is certainly universally the case in human affairs. Hence, what is not surrounded by uncertainty cannot be the truth.

    Richard Feynman (1918–1988) American physicist
    Letter (1976-02-27) to the Editor, California Tech magazine

  6. I can live with doubt and uncertainty and not knowing. I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers that might be wrong.... I don't feel frightened by not knowing things, by being lost in the mysterious universe without having any purpose.

  21. The #math of choosing a #restaurant is revealed in #RichardFeynman’s notes
    Each restaurant is assigned a score to indicate its quality. Aim is to maximize score added up over a given number of nights of dining.
    #Feynman found an equation for threshold against which you compare best restaurant you’ve tried so far. Each night, you check your favorite against it. If your fave scores above, return to it for remaining nights; if not, try somewhere new.

  28. El engaño del papel colgado en la pared

    Por qué un título universitario no te quita lo idiota según un premio Nobel

    Existe una confusión gigantesca en nuestra sociedad que nos hace creer que acumular diplomas es lo mismo que tener un cerebro brillante. Nos han enseñado a agachar la cabeza y respetar a cualquiera que tenga un cartón firmado por una escuela de renombre, pero la realidad de la calle nos demuestra todos los días lo contrario. El físico Richard Feynman, quien ganó el Premio Nobel en el año 1965, dejó una frase muy clara para desarmar a los presumidos: nunca confundas la educación con la inteligencia, puedes tener un doctorado y seguir siendo un idiota. La escuela te da información y te entrena para repetir datos, pero la verdadera inteligencia es otra cosa muy diferente que tiene que ver con la curiosidad, el sentido común y la capacidad de resolver problemas reales cuando las cosas se ponen difíciles.

    En el mundo laboral del siglo XXI se vive un fenómeno muy curioso que la gente de campo y de taller conoce a la perfección. Hay ingenieros sin título y títulos sin ingeniero. Cualquiera que haya visitado un negocio de reparación de carros o una planta de producción sabe que existen mecánicos que jamás pisaron una preparatoria pero son capaces de desarmar un motor de cabo a rabo, detectar un ruido extraño en 2 minutos y dejar la máquina funcionando como nueva usando solo su ingenio y su experiencia. Por otro lado, las oficinas están llenas de profesionales con paredes repletas de certificaciones costosas que no tienen la menor idea de cómo agarrar un desarmador, se hunden en un vaso de agua ante la primera falla del sistema y no saben resolver nada si el manual de la empresa no les dice exactamente qué botón presionar.

    El problema es que los títulos miden la obediencia y la memoria de una persona, pero no su capacidad para pensar por sí misma. Estudiar una carrera es una herramienta útil, pero cuando se mezcla con la soberbia produce analfabetas de la vida real que se creen superiores solo por tener un prefijo antes de su nombre. El conocimiento que no se puede aplicar en el día a día para mejorar las cosas o para ayudar a los demás es solo basura mental. El valor de una persona se demuestra con las manos en la obra y las soluciones sobre la mesa, no con la cantidad de dinero que gastó en una escuela para que le dieran un papel.

    — S.P. Filósofa Urbana

  29. Nepromarněný čas

    Co si vzít na dovolenou, aby se vám vrátil proměněný svět — a ne jen opálená kůže Existuje jeden houževnatý mýtus, kterému bych rád jednou provždy zakroutil krkem: mýtus o „knize na pláž". Prý má být lehká, zapomenutelná, tak akorát tupá, aby vám nerušila trávení. Jako by dovolená byla čas, který se má nějak přežít, protrpět v přiměřeném poloomámení mezi dvěma koupelemi. Já to vidím přesně opačně. Nejjistější způsob, jak promarnit […]

  39. A quotation from Richard Feynman

    It doesn’t seem to me that this fantastically marvelous universe, this tremendous range of time and space and different kinds of animals, and all the different planets, and all these atoms with all their motions, and so on, all this complicated thing can merely be a stage so that God can watch human beings struggle for good and evil — which is the view that religion has. The stage is too big for the drama.

    Richard Feynman (1918-1988) American physicist
