  1. Card paradox

    The card paradox is a non self referential variant of the liar paradox constructed by Philip Jourdain . ref name OConnorRobertson2005 It is also known as the postcard paradox , Jourdain paradox or Jourdain s paradox . The paradox Suppose there is a card with statements printed on both sides class prettytable Front The sentence on the other side of this card is TRUE. Back The sentence on the other side of this card is FALSE. Trying to assign a truth value to either of them leads to a paradox . If the first statement is true, then so is the second. But if the second statement is true, then the first statement is false. It follows that if the first statement is true, then the first statement is false. If the first statement is false, then the second is false, too. But if the second statement is false, then the first statement is true. It follows that if the first statement is false, then the first statement is true. The same mechanism applies to the second statement. Neither of the sentences employs self reference , instead this is a case of circular reference . See Yablo s paradox for a variation of the liar paradox that does not even rely on circular reference.

Acceptance of this paradox by the information security community was immediate, because it was consistent with the professional experiences of this group. Mayfield s Paradox points out that, at some point of the curve, additional security becomes unrealistically expensive. Conversely, at some point of the curve, it becomes unrealistically expensive to add additional users. Based on the Paradox the Menz brothers developed the Menz Theorems of Information and Physical Security .

  1. The Paradox of Excellence

    The Paradox of Excellence is a fiction book co authored by David Mosby and Michael Weissman first published by Jossey Bass, an imprint of John Wiley & Sons, in 2005. The paradox of excellence is a business concept that describes a perceptual phenomenon where as performance improves, that performance becomes less visible to others and therefore becomes less valued. The book seeks to explain how great performers, both companies and individuals, don t always achieve the financial rewards from improved performance. The book is written as a business fable . Key definition The Paradox of Excellence says that the better you do your job, the more invisible you become to everything but bad news. At the same time, your perceived value erodes as customers lose sight of the problems you relieved.

  1. Supplee's paradox

    In theory of relativity relativistic physics , Supplee s paradox also called the submarine paradox arises when considering the buoyancy force buoyant force exerted on a relativistic bullet immersed in a fluid subject to an ambient gravitational field . If a bullet with neutral buoyancy passes through a fluid at a relativistic speed, will its increased mass in the fluid s frame of reference cause it to sink, or will the fluid s increased mass in the bullet s frame of reference cause it to rise? The paradox was apparently first discussed by James M. Supplee . A bit about buoyancy To simplify the analysis, it is customary to neglect Drag physics drag and viscosity , and even to assume that the fluid has constant density . Consider a small object immersed in a container of fluid subject to a uniform gravitational field. Then the object will be subject to a net downward gravitational force. Compare this with the net downward gravitational force on an equal volume of the fluid. If the object is less dense than the fluid, the difference between these two vectors is an upward pointing vector ... rise nor sink. Statement of the paradox It is simplest to assume that at rest, the bullet has ... of the paradox The resolution comes down to observing that the gravitational force lies outside the domain of kinematics when it is treated properly, the paradox disappears.
