Decoding Reality : An insight From Aristotle’s “Categories”

Aristotle’s Categories: An Ontological Infographic Decoding Reality An interactive journey through Aristotle’s Categories, the foundational framework for understanding the nature of being and existence itself. The Foundation of Being Everything starts with Substance. It is the most fundamental reality—the independent entity upon which all other characteristics depend. It answers the question, “What is it?” 🏛️ 1. Substance (ousia) Ontological Interpretation: The primary being that exists independently, not needing anything else to be what it is. It’s the foundational subject for all other categories. Example: A specific human being or a particular tree. Their existence is primary; their height, color, or location are secondary attributes that depend on them. The Attributes of Being Once a substance exists, it can be described and understood through nine other…

The Power of Social Influence on Crime: How Your Peers Can Shape Criminal Behavior

Introduction: The Problem Think about this: It’s a Friday night, and you’re hanging out with friends in a quiet park. What starts as a harmless conversation soon turns into a reckless idea – breaking into an abandoned house for fun. You hesitate. Trespassing is a crime. You know that. But your friends are excited, laughing about how thrilling it would be. They dismiss your worries, saying, “It’s harmless,” and “Everyone does it.” Suddenly, your own logic feels shaky. If everyone else is okay with it, why are you the only one feeling bad? Moments like these highlight a powerful but often overlooked force, social influence.

Fruit Fly Larvae Can Sense Electric Fields, A Whole New Sensory World Discovered!

What if fruit fly larvae are more powerful than we think? New research has just revealed that fruit fly larvae (Drosophila melanogaster) can sense electric fields and possess an extraordinary, previously undocumented sensory ability, the capacity to detect and respond to electric fields. Published in Current Biology by a team led by David Tadres and Matthieu Louis from Stanford University and UC Santa Barbara, the study found that these larvae exhibit a behavior known as electrotaxis, where they consistently move toward negatively charged electrodes. But that’s not all. The researchers pinpointed specific neurons, particularly positive sensory neurons, responsible for this shocking ability. Even more fascinating, the larvae use active head movements to sense and adjust their paths toward electric fields, suggesting a surprisingly sophisticated navigation…
