thoughts on philosophy and science

I think democracy is losing ground in America. I'm not very optimistic about the prospects because it was imperfect to begin with and the last couple years it has lost some ground. Some of these seem out of reach altogether.

An actionable definition of self-respect is sorely missing from the general public, academic and religious literature, philosophy, everywhere. By this I mean a useful understanding of what self-respect is, how it can be obtained and the positive consequences and advantage of having it. In addition literature often confuses self-esteem and self-respect without properly distinguishing between the two.

Preface
This series is aimed at providing tools for an electrical engineer to analyze data and solve problems in design. The focus is on applying linear algebra to systems of equations or large sets of matrix data.

Introduction
This article will attempt to organize the previous series of articles into a decision tree allowing you to quickly choose the best method for a particular problem.

Procedure
First, ask yourself some questions about your data and the type of answer you need.

Introduction
This article will demonstrate the use of Markov Chains. This can be used to analyze models with cyclic or or repeated outcomes.

Introduction
This article will demonstrate the use of Leontief Input-Output Models. This can be used to analyze macroeconomic models of production.

Introduction
This article will demonstrate the use of matrix algebra to solve for equilibrium in systems. This is common in network flow, economics and electrical circuits (current and voltage analysis). We will apply exact and least squares solutions.

The election until very recently has been nearly deadlocked. There are ups and downs but only occasionally were ratings far from center.

I live in a very democratic area and to my friends and colleagues it seems preposterous that Trump would be considered at all.

But the things and values that resonate with Liberal minded folks are different than that of Conservative. And so we argue over priorities and set points.
