Pesquisa com base na Lei de Acesso à Informação aponta Tribunal de Justiça do Ceará como o mais transparente do País. O TJCE também foi destaque no Ranking da Transparência do Poder Judiciário 2020, divulgado pelo Conselho Nacional de Justiça (CNJ).

Dicas: Marcelo Braga - canal no YouTube sobre viagens "Carioca NoMundo". Welkey Costa - livro "O livro ilustrado dos maus argumentos", de Ali Almossawi.

Heute geht es wieder um Argumentationstheorie und der Gedanke stammt erneu aus dem illustrierten Buch der schlechten Argumente von Ali Almossawi. Genauer gesagt geht es um das Strohmann-Argument.

Mein heutiger schöner Gedanke ist ein falsches Argument, beziehungsweise die Widerlegung dieses. Es geht, um den Fehler, den man begeht, wenn man von den Konsequenzen her argumentiert oder wenn man sich auf die Folgen beruft. Gefunden habe ich das im illustrierten Buch der schlechten Argumente von Ali Almossawi.

Episode #30 - On today’s episode of the podcast I had the pleasure of speaking to Ali Almossawi. Ali is the author of Bad Arguments, Bad Choices, and The Point of Pointless Work. His books have been read by 3.2 million readers, translated into 21 languages, and have sold over 300,000 copies in print. In his other career, he leads an engineering and design team at Apple. You heard that right being an author isn’t Ali’s full-time gig. He has had over 3.2 million readers all whilst having a full-time job. This side hustle, or what Ali calls his side passion, is something he tackles in his mornings and evenings. This is something I imagine a lot of you can relate to so in this discussion I delve deeply into how Ali balances his time between his job’s whilst giving his all to both careers. I also ask him as many of you are probably already wondering, if this man is already a successful author, why on earth hasn’t he quit his full-time job and gone all in on his side passion. We also dive into the details his most successful book Bad arguments, where we discuss some key argumentative tactics and logical fallacies you can apply to your everyday life. I hope you enjoy this episode of CEO Journals. -------------- Follow Ali on Instagram: @almossawi Visit Ali’s website: www.almossawi.com Follow me on Instagram: @CEOJOURNALS / @ETHANBRIDGE_ -------------- DON’T FORGET TO LEAVE A 5-STAR REVIEW IF YOU ENJOYED THE SHOW!

The Media Diet (part 3)Have you ever met someone who just made bad arguments and could not carefully or accurately define what their position was on any given topic? Perhaps their reactions were knee-jerk, explosive or just ill-informed. What if that same person was given a platform where in they broadcasted into millions of American's living rooms each night? Dialog and understanding comes from gaining perspective on nuance and allowing a deeper understanding of any given topic. This episode looks at An Illustrated Book of Bad Arguments by Ali Almossawi and we discuss a handful of the bad arguments made by partisan media companies. We also look at the history of the Fairness Doctrine, a deregulated staple of broadcast media, and how conservative media outlets traditionally viewed it. We also look at claims of bias in the media, typically from the political right, and outline what drives these claims and what the history surrounding the accusations stem from. When you hear claims that a paper, or program, or reporter you enjoy is accused of being "liberal", what does that claim stand upon. How can we test the fairness of the person making that claim? Or the fairness of the news they consume?  We all have a family member, friend or acquaintance hooked on a partisan news organization. Perhaps it's time we ask them to consider consuming something more neutral. Please share our podcast with the family/friend who you feel could benefit from being a bit more objective.  ReferencesAd Fontes Media. (2018). Meida Bias Chart.

My guest for this short episode of The Knowledge Project is a man who wears many hats. Ali Almossawi is a San Francisco-based author of books on critical thinking and computer science education, and the creator of An Illustrated Book of Bad Arguments. He is also a principal engineer at Apple and was formerly employed as a data visualization engineer by Mozilla. His books have been read by 3 million readers, translated into 20 languages, and have sold over a quarter million copies in print. This interview is only 20 minutes along, but there was a lot I wanted to cover, so we move pretty fast. Specifically, we cover: The unique format Ali chooses when writing a book to help people understand the concepts more deeply The place for empathy in algorithmic thinking and how we can be more empathetic in our daily interactions with each other Ali’s note taking process and how he tracks the ideas and topics he’d like to explore Ali’s daily routine and the “algorithms” he uses to make the most of his day The single habit that has the most profound impact on Ali’s day to day The cost/benefit of sharing on social media and the impact it has on society as a whole And more. If you’ve ever wanted to improve the way you process information, think more clearly and make better decisions, you won’t want to miss this interview.
