philosophy
Monism is the philosophy that there is only one fundamental substance or nature in the universe. There are two types of monism - one where only the physical is fundamental (physicalism/materialism) and one where only the mind is fundamental (idealism). Idealism asserts that reality is fundamentally mental or spiritual rather than physical. It holds that the world and objects can only be known through ideas, and that ultimately reality is in the mind. Occasionalism is the view that events are directly caused by God rather than physical causes, and God mediates all interaction between mind and body. Subjectivism is the belief that our mental experiences are the only certain facts and there is no objective truth independent of the mind.
philosophy
This document outlines different philosophical theories of idealism and realism. It discusses:
1) Idealism views knowledge as dependent on the mind and prioritizes ideas over the material world. Realism views the material world as primary.
2) There are three types of idealism - subjective, phenomenalistic, and absolute. Subjective idealism holds that ideas depend on individuals. Phenomenalistic idealism says we can only know phenomena, not things-in-themselves. Absolute idealism sees ideas and material as a synthesis.
3) Realism is divided into popular and scientific realism. Popular realism holds primary qualities like shape are objective, while secondary qualities like color are subjective
philosophy
This document discusses several topics in philosophy including methodology, epistemology, ontology regarding body and mind, freedom of will, axiology regarding ethics and values, and idealism vs realism. It addresses sources of knowledge such as rationalism vs empiricism. Regarding body and mind, it examines monism, dualism, and various dualist positions including substance dualism, epiphenomenalism, occasionalism, and parallelism.
Philosophers bio
Friedrich Nietzsche was a highly influential German philosopher known for uncovering the underlying reasons of traditional Western religion, morality, and philosophy. His masterwork Thus Spoke Zarathustra, published between 1883-1885, was the first comprehensive presentation of his mature philosophy and had a significant impact on arts and philosophy after his death. Some of his other notable works included Twilight of the Idols, The Antichrist, and Ecce Homo.
Origin of philosophy
Philosophy originated from wonder, the need to understand doubts and overcome deficiencies. It is characterized by the study of reality, knowledge, and values. There are some common misconceptions about philosophy - that it is just an attitude or outlook, or a collection of general principles. However, philosophy is an academic discipline that questions everyday issues through studying fields like metaphysics, epistemology, and axiology. Philosophers differ from ordinary people in that they continuously wonder and question topics in a way that is relevant to everyday life.
Is there any difference between philosophy and common sense
Philosophy uses self-examination to develop theoretical and practical understandings of the universe. Science progresses with support from common sense, which was traditionally viewed as an internal sense connecting the five external senses. Everyday struggles inspire further study, data analysis, and answers to community dilemmas through both philosophy and science.

Code switching refers to alternating between two or more languages or language varieties in conversation. In Bangladesh, people often code switch between Bengali and English informally. Different types of code switching occur, such as situational code switching based on context or intra-sentential code switching within sentences. While Bengali is Bangladesh's official language, English is used widely in education, business, and demonstrating social status. A survey found that Bangladeshi youth frequently code switch online for communication, with over half switching languages more than 10 times daily in social media and classes. Code switching allows for clearer expression and is becoming a standard form of virtual communication.
Code switching
This presentation summarizes research on code-switching in virtual communication in Bangladesh. The research surveyed 21 participants and found that over half switch between languages 5-10 times per day on social media. Most believe code-switching is beneficial for communication. While code-switching is becoming more common, ensuring it develops properly remains a challenge.
presentation

This document discusses Bengali speech communities and varieties of the Bengali language. It defines a speech community as the type of group that sociolinguists study. It notes that while English has standardized and regional varieties spoken across the world, Bengali also has formal standardized varieties as well as colloquial varieties that differ by region. The regional varieties are considered dialects of the standardized Bengali, while colloquial varieties remain non-localized accents. Varieties differ in vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation depending on the speaker's background and context. The standardized Bengali has no regional affiliation, while colloquial varieties and dialects reflect regional influences.

A speech community is defined as a group that shares a common language and language patterns, and communicates more within the group than outside of it. Some linguists propose the theoretical concept of an 'ideal' speech community for analytical purposes, though real speech communities exist within social contexts. A language has more influence and power than any of its dialects. While dialects may vary regionally, they should not be confused with accents. Bangladesh can be described as a monolingual speech community, as the vast majority of people use Bangla and regional dialects are respected. In Bangladesh, standard Bangla is used in formal contexts nationwide, while dialects vary regionally depending on social and educational backgrounds.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
