Decision-making paradoxes

Green paradox

The Green Paradox is the title of a controversial book by German economist, Hans-Werner Sinn, describing the observation that an environmental policy that becomes greener with the passage of time acts like an announced expropriation for the owners of fossil fuel resources, inducing them to accelerate resource extraction and hence to accelerate global warming. (Wikipedia).

Green's functions: the genius way to solve DEs

Green's functions is a very powerful and clever technique to solve many differential equations, and since differential equations are the language of lots of physics, including both classical mechanics, electrodynamics, and even quantum field theory, so it is important to know how it works.

Relativity 5a - twin paradox

In videos Relativity 1 & 2 we developed the theory needed to analyze the celebrated "Twin Paradox" which shows how the dilation factor (beta) we needed to introduce predicts that someone who makes a spaceflight will age more slowly than someone who stays on Earth. Relativity 1: http://you

The Raven Paradox

The scientific method is only a few hundred years old. This continues to amaze me. It seems so obvious, now, that you should go and test your theories and, if necessary, revise them. But for much of human history, coming up with a “theory” was all about story-telling and sense-making, not
