    Pentingnya logika dalam hidup - The importance of logic in life

    Orang yang tidak mempelajari logika mudah menjadi korban manipulasi yang terdengar masuk akal. Berdasarkan riset dari Stanford Center for the Study of Language and Information, 80% keputusan harian manusia lebih dipengaruhi oleh emosi dan asumsi daripada analisa logis. Inilah sebabnya mengapa iklan menyesatkan, hoaks, dan argumen palsu tetap berpengaruh di masyarakat. Contoh keseharian seperti belanja impulsif karena diskon, debat dengan pasangan yang fokus menang daripada memahami, atau kemarahan terhadap berita viral tanpa klarifikasi, menunjukkan lemahnya landasan berpikir kita. Logika bukan sekadar kemampuan bicara atau hafalan rumus simbolik, tapi keterampilan hidup. Ia berfungsi sebagai pagar pikiran yang melindungi kita dari pengaruh emosi atau pihak yang terlihat meyakinkan tapi sebenarnya menipu.

Because sleep works in cycles (about 90 minutes). If you wake up in the middle of a cycle, your body will feel more tired. A 90-minute sleep cycle is the basic time unit the brain uses to move through different stages of sleep repeatedly throughout the night. On average, the human body needs about 90 minutes to complete one full cycle—from light sleep to deep sleep, and finally to the dreaming phase. Source: REM NREM sleep cycle
