deductive

That's the thing that makes your "deductive thinking practice" break down: People break. To prevent this...

Look up deductive vs inductive teaching. Teachers try to use both methods, but book authors don't have to.

Use of divs does not make your page less semantic - it is not deductive. However use of the correct semantic tags will make your page more semantic - it is additive!

However, I can't understand why the law supports the idea that I am not allowed to use my brain, memory and deductive reasoning skills when playing. Weird, I don't get it.

The basic issue is that economics is not an empirical discipline but rather a deductive one. You cannot test anything in isolation because you cannot have a control.

It seems the general point of this paper is that Bayesianism is useful for deductive techniques - as a tool in a toolset to support a frequentist view? - but not so much as an expression of a subjectivist philosophy.

No she will emerge as a well informed drone with good reading skill but no desire to do so because she is reminded of the amount of reading forced upon her and very weak reasoning and deductive skills. Memorization, not rationalization.

Let's put a simple deductive thinking practice: If you are the first car in the jam, you are stopped and slowed by traffic lights, police, accidents or whatever, but the traffic jam does not affect you, you are going as fast as you can. For the second car, you will not get to your destination faster than the car you're following.

All the same, you should be careful about using deductive reasoning in this way. You're assuming that the only criteria upon which you were measured were formal education and experience with big clients, but what about how you struck them emotionally?

The theme here is to omit all the rational and deductive framework of applied math and replace it with GUIs: This is a future of irrationality with no hope. This work is a special case of the more general situation that 'computer science' is getting a C- in applied math and is out'a gas.

It's an undoubted success in providing general defense against coincidences to a wide audience, but it casts the deductive process needed in a pale light. I think a principle component of the computer revolution is to provide more people with better insight into mathetic thought.

I know because I saw the headline here on HN, but if I went to the site without context, I'd have very little idea, and I'd have to do some detective work or deductive reasoning to find out. It's mostly obvious, but I think it'd really help to have a super-brief explanation of the function - like maybe instead of "Tap the spacebar with your phone," it could say "Tap the spacebar with your phone to upload photos."

During therapy there was clear evidence that his deductive reasoning skills were seriously compromised, so imagine practical consequences if you cannot do simple deductive reasoning but also cannot realize it. Then of course TBI survivors are many times more likely to suffer additional TBIs. Add substance abuse and limited to no impulse control and you have a person who is a danger to himself and often society, but who also may refuse to get the level of help they truly need.

Moreover, the kind of argument for which it is easiest to characterize fallacies is deductive, and many instances of reasoning that appear deductive are in fact statistical, inductive, inferences to the best explanation, or some combination thereof. Even for deductive arguments, what if any fallacies are being committed will depend upon how one interprets suppressed premises.

, my all time favourite book: There seems to be a great danger in the prevailing overemphasis on the deductive-postulational character of mathematics. True, the element of constructive invention, of directing and motivating intuition, is apt to elude a simple philosophical formulation; but it remains the core of any mathematical achievement, even in the most abstract fields. If the crystallized deductive form is the goal, intuition and construction are at least the driving forces.
