Identity and difference
The dialectical relation is already
seen in the differential calculus, where dx is infinitely small, but yet
is effective and does everything.

Who developed the Theory of Relativity?
There are many claims by scientists and science historians that Special Theory of Relativity was developed by Poincare and Lorentz and not by Einstein. Last century it was Whittaker who disliked Einstein and emphasized Poincare and Lorentz role in developing special theory of relativity. C. K. Raju's blog claims that Einstein copied from Poincare and Hilbert. His blog is full of moral appeals and personal attacks on Einstein. He claims Special theory of relativity and General theory of relativity were not developed by Einstein. This is a paragraph from Smilga's book "Relativity and Man" which focuses on exactly the same point and highlights why Einstein and not Poincare or Lorentz, developed Special Theory of Relativity. Through this debate we will also like to explian what is Theory of relativity with a philosophical viewpoint.

Response to Anand Teltumbde: To the Self-proclaimed Teachers and Preachers
Abhinav
Anand Teltumbde has announced his judgement about us (http://sanhati.com/articles/6366/).
He has called us “self-obsessed Marxists” with “frozen mind”. What can
we say? As he himself admits, his stay was of a few hours and in that
short time span he was able to evaluate us conclusively and then declare
his judgement. However, during that same short stay, we too, were able
to make some impressions about Mr. Teltumbde. We shall start with some
examples and then we shall proceed to a parawise reply of Mr. Teltumbde’s article. Of Self-obsession and Similar Diseases… 1. In his
first statement during the Chandigarh seminar, Mr. Teltumbde spoke for
almost 1 hour. In that long speech, he mentioned his own name at least 3
or 4 times. He began with claiming, “Ambedkarites say that Anand Teltumbde is a Marxist and Marxists say that Anand Teltumbde is an Ambedkarite”! At one point, he says, “I don’t like people who immediately agree with me”; at another, “I
saw a problem of mathem…
Artificial Intelligence: Artificial and Antihuman Hypothesis!
In
1997, Garry Kasparov a Russian grand chess master and world chess
champion was defeated by IBM's super computer named "deep
blue" however Garry also defeated the chess machine in a few
games. This defeat was projected as if a consciousness superior to
man's consciousness has been developed. for this game deep blue used
to find and analyse 200 million moves per second,despite this Garry
was able to beat the computer in a few games. what are the
implications of Kasparov losing to a computer? Are computers going
to replace humans? The Newsweek magazine's cover story hailed this
match as "the brain's last stand". Thus Artificial
intelligence was said to have ushered as a science that would change
the face of the world as we know it. Artificial intelligence is one
of the most well researched areas in science and technology in almost
every university in the world.But
the way this subject is taught is incorrect. Artificial intelligence

कृत्रिम चेतना: एक कृत्रिम और मानवद्रोही परिकल्पना
1997 में एक सुपर कम्प्यूटर ‘डीप ब्लू’ ने शतरंज के दिग्गज खिलाड़ी और
विश्व विजेता गैरी कास्परोव को हरा दिया था, हालाँकि कास्पारोव ने भी इसे
हराया था। इस हार को इस तरह पेश किया गया कि जैसे मनुष्य की चेतना से उच्च
स्तर की चेतना विकसित हो गयी है। यह कम्प्यूटर इस खेल के लिए हर सेकण्ड में
2000 लाख चालों को ढूँढता था। इसके बावजूद गैरी कास्परोव ने उसे कुछ गेमों
में हरा दिया था। कास्परोव की हार के मायने क्या हैं? क्या कम्प्यूटर
इंसान की जगह ले लेगा? न्यूज़वीक पत्रिका ने इस मैच को ”दिमाग की आखिरी
हार” करार दिया। और इस तरह कृत्रिम चेतना के विषय का पदार्पण विश्व को बदल
डालने वाले विज्ञान के रूप में हो चुका था। लगभग हर बड़े विश्वविद्यालय में
इस विषय पर शोध हो रहा है। परन्तु यह विषय जिस तरह पढ़ाया जाता है वह ग़लत
है। आर्टिफिशियल इण्टेलिजेंस, कृत्रिम चेतना, कृत्रिम बुद्धिमता शब्द से
असल में उम्मीद लगायी जाती है कि यह इंसान के सभी कार्य कर सकता है व उसे
उसके हर कार्यक्षेत्र से हटा देगा। सिमोन, जिन्हें 1978 का अर्थनीति का
नोबल प्राइज़ मिला था, का कहना था कि ‘आर्टिफिशिअल इण्टेलिजेंस मनुष्…
