Presocratic “Science” The keywords or phrases selected are Anaximander obtained from the Presocratic lecture, Titans sourced from Hesiod, and Isocrates found in Rihll. The new source found is; Blundell, Sue. The Origins of Civilization in Greek and Roman Thought (Routledge Revivals). Routledge, 2016. Presocratic philosophers are the western thinkers preceding Socrates but encompassing some thinkers who were roughly contemporary with Socrates, like Protagoras. To the Presocratics, the application of the concept “philosophy” is typically different from how most people currently think of philosophy. The new source helps in understanding the Presocratic philosophers developed a new understanding of nature and natural philosophy as it depicts that the idea of nature as a means to explain the existence of the cosmos and the identity, development, and behavior of the entities within it emerged in Greek philosophers who precede Platos. Besides being antitelelogical, the Presocratic polysemous concept of nature serves a crucial initial step in the development of early n forms of purposiveness in nature into the more robust teleological conceptions found in Plato and Aristotle. Thus, the idea of nature gets more…

paradigm refers to the essential concepts that define the human way of life Paradigm Student’s Name Institutional Affiliation             Paradigm A paradigm refers to the essential concepts that define the human way of life. It is believed to change from time to time goes by. For a paradigm shift to occur, it has to be catalyzed by occurrences of some events. After it is proved to be better, it is adopted for future use, and the previous culture is dropped and left for reference. An excellent example of a paradigm that has happened is the way business transactions take place. Previously business transactions involved a lot of paperwork where everything had to be done manually, and a lot of follow-ups had to be done before a deal was complete. It is very different in comparison with the introduction of technology in the business. People can now pay for goods and services via credit cards through swiping or through bank transfer. Currently, almost all business records are stored and kept in their soft copy form; it…

Ethnographic Research Ethnographic research tries to gain insight into what, how, and why individuals consume and sociality of their consumer behavior. Ethnographic market research helps companies understand consumers through factors such as lifestyle factors, usage, cultural trends, and attitude. Before this revolutionary technique, companies and businesses used focus groups to determine how consumers felt about their products. The focus group will be put in a room and discuss the product. On the other hand, ethnographic research does away with the room and looks at the consumers at a deeper level to gain more understanding. Ethnography utilizes sensory or empirical data collected from consumer observations and experiences to get a deeper insight into the individual, culture, or people. I believe ethnographic research is much better than traditional market research because researchers can get a full perspective of what the consumers want by studying the culture of a people. Additionally, ethnography allows the researchers to get in touch with the consumers’ lifestyle and culture, which provides them with a more profound and detailed understanding. Given the benefits that come with ethnographic research,…

Android has built-in security features like Application Sandbox, an encrypted file system, ProPolice, etc., that can reduce the impact and frequency of security issues. However, as the mobile app development industry grows, so does the cybercrimes. These have made it essential to take certain measures before you can submit your app to Play Store. Building the mobile app is only the first step. You then have to follow other mandatory processes where one of the crucial ones is implementing mobile app security best practices. As a developer, you have to ensure the security and privacy of your users. The following are some of the best practices you can implement to secure an Android app: Store Sensitive Data in Internal Storage Android implements protection by making sure files created on internal storage are only accessible to the app. However, you should avoid using the MODE_WORLD_READABLE or MODE_WORLD_WRITEABLE since they don’t limit data access to some applications. They do not also provide data control formats. If you need to share data with other processes, use a content provider that can offer permissions…

My research shows that Jim Crow laws prevented African Americans from having identical healthcare facilities and fairness legislation. The worst results that the Blacks experienced originated from the rules that prevented Blacks’ potential to get ingress to healthcare facilities and proper medical care (Thomas, 2011, p.72). During the Jim Crow era and the period between reform, the African Americans faced legal oppression which altered with their ability to live a life equal to that of the whites. The limit of African Americans to access medical healthcare resulted in multiple losses of lives. The whites were rejecting the Blacks a uniform life standard. The Supreme Court of the United States, acknowledge segregation laws to proceed in the form of Jim Crow Laws until 1954 decision integrated institutions and reversed the 1896 decision of the supreme court which allowed segregation to take place under the condition that the facilities belonged to the two races. Segregation in healthcare facilities greatly affected children because access to healthcare was not easy. Franklin Roosevelt created the Georgia Warm Springs rehabilitation centre for polio in the 1920s.…

Abstract This research paper looks at how aspects of computer technology have evolved. The introduction looks into the importance of advancements in pipelining, virtual memory, RISC, and cache memory. The literature review looks into the history of these concepts. The research establishes here that the gap between the performance of processors and memory has steadily increased since the 1980s. The methodology chapter accredits the analysis content of secondary qualitative data in research. The discussion and results sections focus on the current information acquired from the methodology approach of the four computer aspects. Notably, pipelining is RISCs processors’ typical feature. Finally, the paper concludes that the system performance of computer technology has changed positively.

How to Implement Cyber Security into Your Small Business It is easy to assume that cybercriminals will not target your business because you are running a small company. However, a U.S. Congressional Small Business Committee established that as much as 71 percent of all cyber-attacks target businesses with fewer than 100 employees. So, how do you avoid falling prey to a cyber-attack? The following are the best practices that you must implement today to ensure your online security. Install a Firewall Your first line of defense against intruders into your system is a firewall. This is software or hardware that provides a barrier between the internet and your network and internal data. Besides having a standard external firewall, many small and medium-size businesses install internal firewalls to offer additional protection from attacks that originate from their own networks. It is also essential that your employees who work from home should have firewall software installed on their home networks. This is why you should consider a company to offer endpoint cyber security systems that also provide home network firewalls so you…

A schedule of reinforcement is a set of rules or procedures that a teacher during classroom activities follows when delivering reinforcers (Hirst et al., 2019). For instance, a learner can be reinforced after every accurate response to a question based on the protocol set by the teacher. Continuous schedule and intermittent schedule are the two types of reinforcement schedules. A continuous schedule of reinforcement happens when reinforcement is delivered after every targeted behaviour while an intermittent schedule of reinforcement occurs when reinforcement is delivered after some behaviours or answers but by no means after each one. Additionally, continuous reinforcement schedules are frequently used by teachers when teaching new behaviours, while intermittent reinforcement schedules are commonly used by teachers when maintaining previously learned behaviours (Martin and Pear, 2016). Nwankwo (2002) says that several schedules of reinforcement affect the learning and final performance level attained. Intermittent reinforcement schedule is resistant to extinction (Weiten, 2007). When teachers of English use intermittent reinforcement schedule, the students can keep making efforts to answer questions and maintain a high level of academic performance (Slavin, 2009). Okpala…

Remark on the Sorting Exercise The sorting exercise was challenging. Personally, it was extremely difficult to sort the photos according to the races each belonged to while also specifying the criteria employed. I have always treated all people as equal and evaluating friendship based on their content of character and intelligence. Generally, the results of the sorting exercise compared with my colleague’s highlights an inconsistent classification of the human race. Human beings worldwide differ based on their genetic composition and physical appearance (Wilson, 2019). For instance, physical traits, such as skin colour, hair, and eye shape, among other features, are mostly influenced by genetic make-up. It is for this reason that the ancient societies categorised people according to class, religion, language, and status, and not physical traits (Bader et al., 2017). Also, people enslaved each other out of war or conquest, and not based on physical characteristics or inferiority complex. This exercise highlights that race is a contemporary idea. The development of the racial idea has made the underlying racial inequalities as natural, which is not the case. Difference between…

White Culture and White Privilege   Identify core symbols, norms, and labels in white culture. Some symbols help to define the white culture. One of them is the names of the people where most of the white people have the name joseph yonder.  This is one of the most common names among the whites. The last name of the white people is likely to be Jewish or German with names such as Michael and David. One of the worms of white people is that they enjoy eating vegetables than the other races in the USA. The only other product that is consuming more than vegetables is dairy products. They have a higher rate of attending bars and performing art than the other races. Whiteness is used as the label for the whites in the USA, and the distinction between them is described in terms of height and plumpness (Samovar et al., 2014). What are some perceptions shared by white people? One of the perceptions of white people is that being white does not mean invisible privileges.  In some cases, they…
