+\begin{flashcard}[Philosophical Razor]{Hanlon's Law}
+Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.
+\end{flashcard}
+
+\begin{flashcard}[Philosophical Razor]{Alder's Razor}
+If something cannot be settled by experiment or observation, then it is not worthy of debate.
+\end{flashcard}
+
+\begin{flashcard}[Philosophical Razor]{Grice's Razor}
+As a principle of parsimony, conversational implicatures are to be preferred over semantic context for linguistic explanations.

+
+\begin{flashcard}[Philosophical Razor]{Hitchen's Razor}
+That which can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
+\end{flashcard}
+
+\begin{flashcard}[Philosophical Razor]{Hume's Guillotine}
+What ought to be cannot be deduced from what is; prescriptive claims cannot be derived solely from descriptive claims, and must depend on other prescriptions.
+\end{flashcard}
+
+\begin{flashcard}[Philosophical Razor]{Occam's Razor}
+Explanations which require fewer unjustified assumptions are more likely to be correct; avoid unnecessary or improbably assumptions.
+\end{flashcard}
+
+\begin{flashcard}[Philosophical Razor]{Popper's Falsifiability Criterion}
+For a theory to be considered scientific, it must be falsifiable.
+\end{flashcard}

+\begin{flashcard}[Law]{Clarke's First Law}
+When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. \par\vspace{\baselineskip} When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.
+\end{flashcard}
+
+\begin{flashcard}[Law]{Clarke's Second Law}
+The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the improbable.
+\end{flashcard}
+
+\begin{flashcard}[Law]{Clarke's Third Law}
+Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
