#Thoughts and #Questions

| | You can kill people and destroy lives.
But it's impossible to eliminate thoughts, opinions, and questions from the world.
There are thoughts and questions that keep coming up. You can't change that. | | | |

Does #dementia begin with a #lack of #attention?
saradina-info-blog on 19.03.2025 um 08:00 (UTC) |
| | At the beginning, attention determines the quality of perception. At the end, there is storage in memory.
When dementia is discussed, research focuses on pure memory performance.
This ignores the fact that there is an entire chain of mental performances that precedes storage in memory. Thus, concentration and attention initially determine the quality of perception. Only then does storage in memory follow.
The better the attention, the better the perception, the better and more solid the data that can be stored in memory.
The poorer and more superficial the attention, the poorer the perceptual data, the weaker the imprint in the memory storage.
Therefore, it seems useful to prioritize training concentration and perception if one wants to improve memory.
It is like a root and a plant: concentration is the root, perception is the flower stem, and memory is the flower.
These facts are given far too little consideration. When solving problems, one should start with the underlying structure and not approach things from the end. | | | |

How #competent are #politicians?
saradina-info-blog on 25.02.2025 um 07:11 (UTC) |
| | Politicians have great power and a high income on the one hand, but on the other hand they also have great responsibility.
Power and money on the one hand, responsibility on the other.
But why do people strive for a great career in politics? Are they interested in power and money or in taking responsibility for making important decisions in public life and acting for the benefit of the citizens?
This question arises when one observes how professionally incompetent many politicians are with regard to the offices they hold.
Many ministers lack professional qualifications; philosophers become ministers of economics and bankers become ministers of health.
Some of the high-ranking politicians have no qualifications at all, neither a degree nor professional training. They are practically unskilled, having spent a few semesters at university without success and working as a dishwasher on the side. Many have never had a serious life as professionals.
Nevertheless, they are given high political offices with a correspondingly high salary and are expected to bear responsibility.
Now you could reply that high-ranking politicians receive professional advice from relevant experts. But this argument is a smokescreen, because how can a politician who has no real idea of the field he represents politically be able to judge whether his political advisors are making plausible suggestions?
In the normal professional world, everyone who applies for a job has to demonstrate the relevant qualifications beforehand. In politics, no one needs that. All it takes is a suitable party affiliation and an effective smile and a sufficiently aggressive demeanor as well as a high level of talent as an intriguer. And you have a high position in politics.
This situation is becoming increasingly intolerable, especially since the functioning of an entire state and the reality of life of its citizens are at stake. Politics must not remain a casino game.
It is therefore necessary that politicians are only employed in areas for which they have professional qualifications. The appropriate professional qualifications of politicians for the respective political office sought must be laid down by law. | | | |

The image of the #Earth seen from the #universe
saradina-info-blog on 12.02.2025 um 10:42 (UTC) |
| | Humanity has long been fascinated by the search for extraterrestrial life. There is particular interest in so-called intelligent life, especially highly developed technical civilizations.
In fact, it is also possible that intelligent life forms that may live far away in the depths of space are also interested in intelligent life.
They could also discover the Earth...
But it is not that simple.
The intelligent extraterrestrial observers face the same problems that humanity faces when searching in space.
The further the distance to the observed object, the older the situation recorded.
This means that extraterrestrial observers who are, for example, 100,000 light years away from Earth will receive an image of the Earth as it was 100,000 years ago.
This 100,000 year old image will not show any technical civilization on Earth.
The extraterrestrial observers may then come to the conclusion that there is no technically developed civilization on Earth. | | | |

#Language and #astronomy
saradina-info-blog on 14.01.2025 um 07:39 (UTC) |
| | Language influences our thinking.
So also in astronomy.
Just as we express facts linguistically, they are anchored in our perception, this also applies to astronomical facts.
Information that we get for astronomy often come from pictures that win from our universe through telescopes.
These images are viewed and analyzed and then conclusions are drawn.These conclusions influence our view of the universe.
So it may be that no water is discovered on a distant planet, although we suspected it.
Then it is reported that there is no water on Planet XY.The planet becomes uninteresting and we turn away.
However, if you consider that the Planet XY is, for example, a million light years away, the image and so are the data about the presence of water on this planet also one million years old.
The linguistically correct wording for this fact must be: There was no water on the Planet XY one million years ago.
We do not know whether there is water on Planet XY today and what is otherwise today with this planet, we have no current information. | | | |

Everyone wants to #save the #world?!

| | Everyone wants to save the world?!
Everyone wants to save the whole world - preferably in distant countries.
But nobody wants to take the trouble to improve the situation on their own doorstep.
