Universal Grammar, 2

Predicate logics may be viewed syntactically as Chomsky grammars. As such, predicate logics (as well as modal logics and mixed modal predicate logics) may be viewed as context-sensitive, or more typically as context-free, grammars. As each one of the four Chomsky-type grammars have equivalent automata, these logics can be viewed as automata just as well.

Memory 4

這段改編自 2010 年 4 月 3 日的對話。

正常健康的腦袋,不會記下所有東西,而會把經驗過濾,把握重點記下,把其他遺忘。所以,記憶既不是事實的全部,亦未必是事實的真相。記憶時常會不完整,甚至不準確。

一個簡單的實驗,就可以證實,「記憶」和「事實」,並非百份百相乎。你可以試試再看,一部以前看過的電影。你會發現,電影中的很多細節,和你的記憶不一致,甚至相反。例如,你記得某輛車明明是在畫面的左邊,重看時,卻發現它竟然在右邊。
