A sharp, witty, mind-expanding and exuberant foray into the world of logic with computer scientist Professor Dave Cliff. Following in the footsteps of the award-winning 'The Joy of Stats' and its sequel, 'Tails You Win - The Science of Chance', this film takes viewers on a new rollercoaster ride through philosophy, maths, science and technology- all of which, under the bonnet, run on logic.
Wielding the same wit and wisdom, animation and gleeful nerdery as its predecessors, this film journeys from Aristotle to Alice in Wonderland, sci-fi to supercomputers to tell the fascinating story of the quest for certainty and the fundamentals of sound reasoning itself.
Dave Cliff, professor of computer science and engineering at Bristol University, is no abstract theoretician. 15 years ago he combined logic and a bit of maths to write one of the first computer programs to outperform humans at trading stocks and shares. Giving away the software for free, he says, was not his most logical move...
With the help of 25 seven-year-olds, Professor Cliff creates, for the first time ever, a computer made entirely of children, running on nothing but logic. We also meet the world's brainiest whizz-kids, competing at the International Olympiad of Informatics in Brisbane, Australia.
'The Joy of Logic' also hails logic's all-time heroes: George Boole who moved logic beyond philosophy to mathematics; Bertrand Russell, who took 360+ pages but heroically proved that 1 + 1 = 2; Kurt Godel, who brought logic to its knees by demonstrating that some truths are unprovable; and Alan Turing, who, with what Cliff calls an 'almost exquisite paradox', was inspired by this huge setback to logic to conceive the computer.
Ultimately, the film asks, can humans really stay ahead? Could today's generation of logical computing machines be smarter than us? What does that tell us about our own brains, and just how 'logical' we really are...?
撸猫猫,看happy ending 的圣诞喜剧,best Christmas ever! 🎄
虽然情节很predictable,但是,喜欢诶!电影里也没有过分强调asian这个ethnic,也没有一些很cliche的嘲笑亚洲爸妈的桥段,Netflix还是可以的
老套的爱情片,望开头知结尾。但是某些细节的刻画很有意思,如男主之前的交友app照片,倒是很有些不一样的意味。PS.原来是个超新的片,网飞这么早就开始出圣诞电影了吗
很俗套的故事,但因为男主是Jimmy, 可以看!
全片最精彩的部分居然是老头老太在一起说如何在online dating 上美化自己。
故事太俗套了……真的就是吃炸鸡的时候随便看看
Such a healing movie. Love all characters.
太俗套了但我对欧阳有滤镜无法客观打分 更何况还有Paxton _(:з」∠)_
funnyasiandude 可摸耳多做幾次male lead
虽然结局完全不现实,但是Jimmy演的还不错
太俗套了吧!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!而且nina不要在晒太阳和减肥了😣😣😣
不错的圣诞小鸡电影。改编版baby it’s cold outside还不错。
社交软件恋爱的人儿们必看佳作。契合的灵魂真的比外貌更重要吗?josh第一时间去追Natalie很关键。Natalie也没有做到完全的honest,但是结局回归自己内心还是好的。love actually是最棒的圣诞爱情电影,电影中致敬的桥段不少。心灵和外表都很重要,相辅相成。真心换真心!
虽然终于有不帅不高的亚裔做主角了,但也好久没看到这么难看浮夸的圣诞节电影,编剧用脚写的烂故事吧,真的,它的受众究竟是那个人群?觉得谁看了都不会开心的样子
啊哈哈哈哈哈,我现在就是需要这么一部电影!是吸引力法则送给我的当头大棒。
Nina Dobrev还是那么美😍Darren Barnet已经变成chick flick hot guy专业户了吗哈哈 鬼知道最后致敬love actually那一段我哭得有多惨😭ps.美国人真的11月开始过圣诞🎄实锤 pss.真正的幸福是从爱自己开始的(百说不腻的鸡汤
一般般,无功无过的三星小电影。因为欧阳万成小哥哥多给一星
剧情走向很容易猜到,但除了开头都没在洛杉矶嘛... 想想也对,洛杉矶哪有圣诞氛围,还是得到下雪的地方
离谱,明明是女主被假照骗被catfish为什么还要她道歉???
有点儿stereotypical,但是没有让人感觉特别讨厌。不过我又知道些什么呢,那天晚上面完SN 的on site用甜酒大醉了一场。
