Antibiotics are agents that eliminate bacteria. Since bacteria are living organisms, they can develop resistance when individuals misuse antibiotics, resulting in so-called “resistance.” Consequently, antibiotics are not always effective against bacteria. The widespread use of antibiotics can diminish the chances of treating future patients by fostering bacterial resistance. Therefore, pharmaceutical companies that produce antibiotics establish ethical guidelines for fair market competition. It is advisable to administer one antibiotic to target a specific bacterium. However, developing a new antibiotic and achieving profitability typically takes about 20 years, presenting a daunting challenge. Additionally, some individuals aggressively market health supplements, often disregarding ethical considerations. Those involved in health and wellness must exercise great care. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

“Culture” is a lifestyle that does not naturally accept or object to “reason.” The key is that you don’t pick “reason. ”  However, if someone asks “why?” to the passing-over phenomenon without any doubt, many things are revealed. Cultural products, organizational culture, art, community, and social matters kneel before this question. Ask yourself, “Why?”. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

In his book, “Thinking, Fast and Slow,” the Nobel Prize winner in economics, Daniel Kahneman, said that humans have two systems of thinking. These two thinking systems were called “system 1” and “system 2”. “System 1” is an intuitive and emotional thinking system that operates unconsciously and immediately. “System 2” is rational and is determined by careful consideration. “System 1” is advantageous for survival in a crisis and works immediately, so operating costs are less than “System 2”. When humans make decisions, they decide 95% with “System 1” and 5% with “System 2”. Humans decide by emotion, but by reason, they must revenge those foolish emotions. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Everybody lies. "I don't lie" is a lie. There are five reasons for lying: 1) originally dishonest, 2) embarrassed, 3) ignorant, 4) scared, 5) to defend their interests. However, except for 1), on the contrary, we are also being honest for those reasons. It is not a dichotomy; it is a matter of judgment in the context. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

The dichotomy of history in which mankind has separated emotions and reason is long. People have thought that emotions are inferior and that reason is superior. In priority relations, emotions seem to have less stake than the reason in our minds. But let's see a psychopath. The rationale for justifying their bizarre behavior is mostly reason and logic. Emotions, especially empathy, are hard to find for them. If the work is done with reason and logic only, the chances of success may be high, but there remains a high possibility of aftereffects. The world moves in a way that values emotions more. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
