Fallibilism in philosophy

Fallibilism is that some parts of accepted knowledge claims could be wrong or at least flawed. In contrast, a fallibilist is not so quick to discount the possibility of having knowledge. For the fallibilist, the lack of absolute certainty does not undermine our ability to know the truth of some particular claims. Fallibists are willing to accept a justified claim as true until it is shown to be false. 

This idea is not as essential as some found in philosophy, since often human knowledge is founded on observed interactions that could be interpreted incorrectly. Numerous times our understanding of the world is found to be fallible, not perfect, and we discover mistakes after new empirical observations are made. The response of the scientific community in that case is to revise the knowledge claim, not to deny the possibility of knowing anything for sure. 

Two philosophers have contributed significantly to the philosophical understanding of fallibilism. 

  1. Charles Sanders Peirce was the first to say that our knowledge about science is naturally fallible. This is not to say that we should deny its validity, but at least be aware of its shortcomings.
  2. Willard Van Orman Quine took what Peirce said a little further. He not only applied fallibilism to science, but to any analytic statement as well. Since our statements are founded on a fallible science, then the natural laws which the statements express are also fallible.

How to configure server to listen TCP/IP port on Microsoft SQL Server?

In this article we will look how to configure or enable SQL Server database engine to listen to a particular port.
1. Open MS sql server configuration manager

3. Open the IP Address tab now. Here you will find few IP<n>, and you need to enable the right one and configure with write port.
Here, we will enable our localhost server request on port number 1433. 1433 is default port for MS sql server, which you may change as your wish. Configure the following values here.
Active = Yes

Enabled = Yes
IP Address = 127.0.0.0
TCP Dynamic Ports = <keep it empty>. Default you may find 0 here, please remove the value 0.
TCP Port = 1433
  After making all these changes hit on apply button.

4. If you not sure about the request server and your application is unable to listen to configured IPn, then please update the IPAll section at the end of this IPs with same port number 1433.
IPALL MS SQL Server Configuration TCP/IP
IPALL MS SQL Server Configuration TCP/IP 

Note: These changes will not work until and unless we restart the SQL services. To restart the services. Again go to MS SQL server configuration manager.
Open SQL Server Configuration Manger >> click on SQL Server Service >> SQL Server (SERVER NAME) >> Right click on that and select the restart option.


Hissa

Hum mehnatkash jagwaalon se jab apna hissa maangenge
Ek khet nahin, ek desh nahin, hum saari duniya maangenge

Yaan sagar sagar moti hain, yaan parbat parbat heere hain
Yeh saaraa maal hamaara hai, hum saara khazaana maangenge

Jo khoon baha, jo baag ujde, jo geet dilon mein qatl hue
Har qatre ka, har ghunche ka, har geet ka badla maangenge

Se seth byopaari rajwaade dus laakh to hum das laakh karod
Yeh kitne din America se jeene ka sahaara maangenge

Jab saf seedhi ho jaayegi, jab sab jhagde mit jaayenge
Ham har ik desh ke jhande par ik laal sitaara maangenge
