Located in the area between philosophy and mathematics is the realm of logic.
Logic permeates everything we do, from the work of Socrates to modern computer programming to the musings of Mister Spock.
However, there is more to logic than just making sense and avoiding fallacies. It can also be a highly formal system using symbols and variables to represent statements.
Learn more about formal logic, its ancient roots, and its modern applications on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

For years something strange has been happening online, but most of us have no idea what’s really going on.
Ethnic conflict in Myanmar. A chemistry professor is killed in Ethiopia. A teenager dies in her bedroom in London. A mob storms the Capitol in Washington DC.
And that’s the moment that catches Jamie Bartlett’s eye. A few days after the riot, on January 9th 2021, the outgoing leader of the United States is suspended on social media. First Twitter, (renamed X), and then Facebook. A President silenced. It’s a glimpse behind the curtain. For the first time millions of us can see the power of technology companies.
They can delete you. They can amplify you. They can change your life. Social media has conquered the world.
Jamie Bartlett follows the roots of this story back to San Francisco : the home of Big Tech, where he meets one of the early pioneers of social media who tells him about a strange hand bound book, passed around hippy communes in the summer of love, and how it turned the world upside down.

The First World War saw many innovations in warfare. Probably the most significant was the introduction of aircraft.
The first military pilots didn’t really know what they were doing. There was no rulebook about how to fight with other aircraft.
However, one pilot mastered the art of aerial warfare and terrorized the Allies over skies on the Western front.

On June 22, 1941, German forces crossed into the Soviet Union. It was, and remains, the largest military operation in human history. The force that the Germans assembled for the invasion was staggering, consisting of over 3 million men.
However, the decision to go to war with the Soviets and break the alliance Germany had with them has puzzled historians for decades.
It ultimately was an extremely costly failure that resulted in the deaths of tens of millions of people.
Learn more about Operation Barbarossa, the German invasion of the Soviet Union, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
