A test for Twitter insanity coined by Zuby:

"I've said it so many times on here... but the correlation between someone having their pronouns in their Twitter bio and them being completely insane is uncanny."
I’ve texted about this many times. Never read tweets from someone who has pronouns in their bio. First we had Occam’s Razor, then we had Hanlon’s Razor, now we have Zuby's Razor.

Occam's razor is a logical principle attributed to the mediaeval philosopher William of Occam (or Ockham). The principle states that one should not make more assumptions than the minimum needed. This principle is often called the principle of parsimony. It underlies all scientific modelling and theory building. It admonishes us to choose from a set of otherwise equivalent models of a given phenomenon the simplest one. In any given model, Occam's razor helps us to "shave off" those concepts, variables or constructs that are not really needed to explain the phenomenon. By doing that, developing the model will become much easier, and there is less chance of introducing inconsistencies, ambiguities and redundancies.

Though the principle may seem rather trivial, it is essential for model building because of what is known as the "underdetermination of theories by data". For a given set of observations or data, there is always an infinite number of possible models explaining those same data. This is because a model normally represents an infinite number of possible cases, of which the observed cases are only a finite subset. The non-observed cases are inferred by postulating general rules covering both actual and potential observations.

For example, through two data points in a diagram you can always draw a straight line, and induce that all further observations will lie on that line. However, you could also draw an infinite variety of the most complicated curves passing through those same two points, and these curves would fit the empirical data just as well. Only Occam's razor would in this case guide you in choosing the "straight" (i.e. linear) relation as best candidate model. A similar reasoning can be made for n data points lying in any kind of distribution.

Occam's razor is especially important for universal models such as the ones developed in General Systems Theory, mathematics or philosophy, because there the subject domain is of an unlimited complexity. If one starts with too complicated foundations for a theory that potentially encompasses the universe, the chances of getting any manageable model are very slim indeed. Moreover, the principle is sometimes the only remaining guideline when entering domains of such a high level of abstraction that no concrete tests or observations can decide between rival models. In mathematical modelling of systems, the principle can be made more concrete in the form of the principle of uncertainty maximization: from your data, induce that model which minimizes the number of additional assumptions.

This principle is part of epistemology, and can be motivated by the requirement of maximal simplicity of cognitive models. However, its significance might be extended to metaphysics if it is interpreted as saying that simpler models are more likely to be correct than complex ones, in other words, that "nature" prefers simplicity.
One should not increase, beyond what is necessary, the number of entities required to explain anything

razor 1911 is a warez and demo group, founded in norway. its original name was razor 2992, but they shortly change from 2992 to 1911 as a jab ot other crackers who tended to overuse the number 666. 1911, translated in hexadecimal, is 777, which is the opposite of 666.

in 2006, they have released BF2142 five days before its official release.

in 2007, they have cracked the vista-only game Shadowrun, so also XP-users were able to play the game.

in 2007, they release the game Crysis five days before its official release.

in 2008, razor 1911 released GTA IV five days its release.

They have also cracked others games as well, like WC3, Half.-life , quake III, soldiers of fortune..

Hanlon's Razor is a saying commonly summarized as "Never assume malice when stupidity will suffice". Named for "Robert Hanlon"--probably a corruption of the author Robert Heinlein. There are many variations, but the general idea is that same. Also known in British English as the "Cock-Up Theory".
Person 1: Dude, my stimulus check was $600 less than it should be. The government is trying to screw me!
Person 2: Hanlon's Razor, man. They probably had faulty information for you.

(N) A girl/woman who is a mean bitch. She is a really nasty person,usually not caring about others, hence,"hurting, like cutting" others.

You'd probably call your psycho ex-girlfriend this.
