Chapter 416

"What is survivor bias?" Euclid opened the magic book that had just been closed.

"When I was in lion harbor, I was inspired by a story, and then I had this' survivor bias'"

Su Ye is familiar with the way and moves out the best shield to make up for his carelessness in language.

"I think it's interesting to talk about it carefully." Euclid's eyes shine.

Su Ye sighed secretly. It seems that he should be careful to speak in front of these guys in the future, especially big guys like Euclid.

"The thing is, in the west of Greece, there is a very powerful country, like the Lighthouse of the world. Of course, it is now burned by its people. The armor of that country is made by magic. Once, a golden warrior general with a dozen of his men found a magician responsible for making armor, pointed to the arrow holes all over his body and complained, "you should thicken these places of armor. You see, there are many arrow holes in these places for more than ten of us."

"More than a dozen soldiers came forward and revealed their armor. The magician looked. Sure enough, there were many arrow holes in some places. He nodded and said, "don't worry, I'll thicken other places." The general was angry and asked, 'what do you mean? The place where you hit the arrow is not thickened, but you have to thicken the place where you don't hit the arrow? " The magician said casually, "you only saw the armor of the surviving soldiers. Have you seen the armor of the dead soldiers?"

"The general was stunned. He thought for a long time and turned away. Before long, he brought some of the dead's armor and silently put it in front of the magician. The magician looked again, nodded and said, "as I guessed, the most deadly arrow holes on these dead people are not exactly in the most dense part of your arrow holes. In fact, the number of arrows you all encounter is the same. There are so many arrow holes in some positions, but you are not dead, which means that the position does not need to be thickened. What really needs to be thickened is the parts outside those places. "

"After hearing the story, I suddenly realized. The general can only see the arrow holes on the survivors. Naturally, he will think that the more arrow holes, the more dangerous they are and should be thickened. Therefore, what he sees in his eyes deviates from the truth. The magician saw not the survivors, but the dead. He saw those "places beyond the eyes", so he saw the truth. Our eyes and minds have been deceiving us. Therefore, compared with what we see at present, we should believe in the theory of "survivor bias."

"OK, good. I like this story. I also like survivor bias. I prefer you to believe in theory more than in front of you. This thing has something in common with the "positive order logic" you said. Our understanding of many things either deviates or the order is reversed. Well, the survivor deviation is also worth 10000 golden eagles. " Euclid said.

Castor smiled and said, "if it goes on like this, Suye won't have to help you, Golden Eagle."

"No problem. He helped me Jin Xiongying to let me find the truth. If he can find the truth far more than me, he naturally doesn't need to support me. He supports me. I want his golden eagle for truth, not for money. You don't understand the logic. " Euclid recorded Su Ye's words as he spoke.

"I really shouldn't joke with your magician." Castor whispered.

Su ye said sincerely, "I shouldn't have said something, but you said you wanted to learn from me, so I'll say more. The root of this matter is that you think that the invisible truth discovered by Euclid may not be very important. In addition, you think that Euclid may not be able to discover the truth. Therefore, you think money is more important. Finally, you make that joke. Not that you just joked. When you can understand positive order logic, you can find the truth of the world. "

The other Spartans looked confused, and castor frowned and thought carefully.

"I write it down, although I don't understand." Comodes wrote with a bitter face.

Euclid said immediately, "this is a good example. Su ye, you are little Aristotle in some ways. You can always find what seems to be right but is actually very wrong. As a magician, you should have such a mind and say such words, regardless of whether castor likes it or not. In other words, it is because you have such a mind that you choose to become a magician, and you are a successful magician. You should learn more from Su Ye. "

"Comodes has at least caught up with Su ye a few years ago." Castor whispered his defense.

"No, no, no, he just imitates. Even if he does the same thing, the principle is completely different. If you don't believe it, ask Su Ye." Euclid did not raise his head.

"Oh? Comodes, why did you start recording? "

"Because I want to learn Euclid and Su Ye."

"No other reason?"

"No." Comodes took it for granted.

"What about Su ye? For example, if you want to learn Euclidean and record, what will be the reason? " Castor's canal.

Su ye thought for a moment and said, "the first reason is that successful people must have excellence worth learning. The second reason is that if I don't find his excellence, it must not be that he has no excellence, but that I am misled, ignored or arrogant by others. Well, on the basis of these two principles, if I meet any successful person like Euclid, I will instinctively realize that he has excellence and will study modestly. "

Castor and comodes were a little confused. They didn't seem to answer the question.

"See, Suye took a big step than comodes, a big step from Marathon to Athens. HMM... I always think there is a great truth behind Su Ye's sentence, which touches me. I want to start thinking deeply. Don't disturb me! I'll write it down in the magic book! "

Euclid scanned everyone fiercely, then used magic to close himself, isolate the outside world, meditate quietly, and constantly write and draw in the magic book.

Su Ye was stunned and thought for a while before he realized it.

In fact, I was influenced by axiomatic thinking and used some fur of axiomatic thinking.

Axiomatization was first determined by Euclid on the basis of eudox and Aristotle.

Comodes thought for a moment and couldn't help but say, "I seem to understand a little. My answer is the reason, and Su Ye's answer is the reason. My reason can only answer 'how to learn Euclid', but Su Ye's reason can answer 'how to learn from all excellent people'. Is this the magician's mind? Fortunately, I chose a soldier, otherwise I must still be worried about being promoted to black iron magician... "

"I'm lucky to have soldiers in the world for me to choose." Castor was filled with gratitude.

All the Spartan soldiers nodded like chickens pecking rice.

The magician is not human!

It's so happy to be a soldier!

Su Ye muttered in his heart that it was OK. He didn't take Euclid and me as bullies.

"Let's stay away from Euclid and don't let him write it down in his little book." Suye road.

The Spartans immediately rushed to the other side.

"Su ye, aren't you tired?" Castor was puzzled.

"Do you have any food you like?" Su ye asked with a smile.

"I like roast eel!"

"Do you feel tired when you keep eating eels?" Su ye asked.

"Not tired." The boy's face radiated happiness.

"Do you have a girl you like? Even boys. " Su Ye smiled.

"A little like the girl, but not so like." Castor's white face flew a faint red glow.

"Do you feel tired when you miss her and look at her?"

"Of course not!"

"We like to pursue the truth of the world, we like to pursue the existence far away from our eyes, and we like to pursue the world that can be touched only by thought, so we will not feel tired, but we will feel happy and happy whenever we make progress, and we will recognize and affirm ourselves more. Then, we will continue to pursue and pursue forever." Su Ye smiled.

Castor was silent for a long time, nodded and said, "I see. The reason why I ask you whether you are tired is because I think I can't do it. I think I am tired first. If one day, like you, I can gain happiness from this matter, I won't feel 'tired' at all, and naturally I won't ask you if you are tired. "

"Happiness is not enough. Happiness is too shallow. You should not only feel happiness, but also feel affirmation and recognition. It is not given to you by others, but you give it to yourself. In fact, you will have this feeling yourself, but you haven't refined it. You've had this feeling before, but you've forgotten. " Suye road.

"Yes, you're right. I felt it. I felt it when I practiced war skills, but I forgot. You're right. I'll think about it... "

Half way through, castor was suddenly stunned. He turned his head to Euclid and to comodes, who was dazed at the papyrus.

"Can I have some papyrus and charcoal? I should have listened to my sister. " Castor blushed.

"No problem." Su ye took out two charcoal pens and a stack of papyrus from the ruins space.

Castor picked up the charcoal, thought, and wrote on the papyrus.

"I want to find something really happy and truly happy, and then recognize and affirm myself, always do it, always do it! I want to be a demigod warrior. I want to practice my fighting skills... "

The other Spartans looked at castor, at comodes, at Euclid, and finally at Suye.

Is this man a devil?

Is there really magic that people can learn well?

There was an awkward silence in the room.

Su Ye opened the book and recorded the key points just now. Finally, he said while writing.

"Without records, nothing happens. If it doesn't happen, there will be no reflection. Most of our past is worthless and has nothing to do with us. Most of the so-called experiences, experiences and experiences, even if they are deeply imprinted in the memory, if they can't reflect, they are just nothingness that deceives themselves and others. This is why some old people boast that they have gone through ups and downs and suffered a lot. They can always tell a lot of things and suspected truth, but they don't make any progress. They live in ignorance all their life. "
