POPPER'S PARADOX OF DEMOCRACY

open access: yesThink, 2012
In a footnote to Chapter 7 of ‘The Open Society and Its Enemies’ Karl Popper describes what he calls the ‘Paradox of Democracy’: the possibility that a majority decides for a tyrant to rule. This is the lesser known paradox of the three to which he pays attention, the other two being the ‘paradox of freedom’ – total freedom leads to suppression of the ...

Popper and Turing's Challenge

open access: yes, 2006
In Computing Machinery and Intelligence, Alan M. Turing posed the question "Can machines think?". Popper's answer in The Self and Its Brain is "without hesitation that they cannot", and "Turing's challenge should not be taken up".

Lack of monoacylglycerol lipase prevents hepatic steatosis by favoring lipid storage in adipose tissue and intestinal malabsorption[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2019
Monoacylglycerol lipase (MGL) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the degradation of monoacylglycerols. To examine the role of MGL in hepatic steatosis, WT and MGL KO (MGL−/−) mice were challenged with a Western diet (WD) over 12 weeks.

Multimodal Bioinspired Self‐Healing Composites Enabling Durable and High‐Efficiency Wearable Perovskite Light‐Emitting Diodes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Butterfly wing–inspired intrinsically self‐healing polymer interlayers enable flexible perovskite optoelectronics with high luminance, strain‐insensitive stability, and environmental resilience. These hierarchically structured films redistribute mechanical stress, suppress defect formation, and maintain performance under repeated bending, paving the ...

Ab Initio Thermoelectric Transport Calculations of Alloyed Half‐Heuslers

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The effect of alloying on the electronic transport of half‐Heusler thermoelectric materials is explored using a fully ab initio approach. A novel method is developed that combines calculations of alloyed supercells with Boltzmann transport, considering the full energy and momentum dependent scattering processes from first principles extracted ...

Popper, Kuhn, Lakatos and Aim-Oriented Empiricism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In this paper I argue that aim-oriented empiricism (AOE), a conception of natural science that I have defended at some length elsewhere, is a kind of synthesis of the views of Popper, Kuhn and Lakatos, but is also an improvement over the views of all ...

Spontaneous Cyclic Levitation of Glycerol‐Water Droplets at Low Pressures

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Under low pressure, a minute glycerol addition transforms the chaotic dynamics of freezing water droplets into cyclic levitation. Freeze‐concentration preserves liquid pathways that relax expansion‐induced stress, while freezing point depression weakens asymmetric vaporization recoil.
