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...?
虽然是个套路剧但，当然选杰米欧阳啊我的天！
标准Netflix圣诞电影，虽然老套，但是我喜欢。
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。
虽然结局完全不现实，但是Jimmy演的还不错
Jimmy O Yang is just being too nice + the Asian family in the movie is just too white. But still good effort to challenge existing underrepresentation of Asian Americans nonetheless...
笑死，整个就是看之前觉得荒谬看的时候觉得荒谬看完了依然觉得荒谬的一部！！但是俗话说得好有没对人家有过高的期待就不存在受伤，轻松愉快边看边吃饭了一番。
咋说呢？我还是挺喜欢的这个反正。追求真爱嘛。没有一个坏人的故事。男主欺骗女主用的是照片，但是之后的聊天思考陪伴都是真的啊。而女主骗男二可是totally虚假的爱好。所以是女主求原谅没啥问题。但是男主真的不好看。明明爸爸妈妈哥哥都好看，怎么就男主不好看。
周五下午想看一部轻松的无脑片快落一下，选对了。
能不能别把亚裔搞得那么丑，求求了。剧情就那样，你吃个饭看的电影，还想怎么样。
可又到holiday season了 看啥都是cliche的节日味
又到了年底Netflix的欢乐烂片批量发货的季节。还蛮cute的。
还行，恭喜Josh啦，终于不是标准的王子公主故事啦，耶嘿
online dating有多不靠谱，可以培养出一个写手？
放早了，再等一个月最好
驴唇不对马嘴的剧情竟然还给我看感动了。搞笑的是从头看到尾一直以为是Lily Collins演的，直到看到演员表，竟然是吸血鬼日记女主。
这个hard真的不是hard to watch的意思？
电车男和大美女真的太违和了，看不下去。这男演员完全可以眼一些科幻题材的片子，为啥硬要演爆谷爱情片？看这种片的人（例如我）就是想看个帅哥美女上演烂俗情节，我做错了什么？如果是奈飞想讨好中国观众的话，就太错了
Love Actually和Die Hard哈哈哈哈哈～岑永康演了一个大傻子
虽然是加上了圣诞元素的爆米花电影，但是还是值得看。
Jingyang made it, finally!
