Nietzschean Vitalism Versus Ortega’s Philosophy
Nietzsche’s vitalism affirmed the value of life as the ground of human being. This value sets a framework of irrationality against reason. Nietzsche says the human being has always been concerned with explaining how to live or how one should live, rather than actually living. This concern, in turn, has broken into metaphysics, morality, and history, generating the “conceptual mummies” that prevent us from living fully.
Nietzsche argued that it is necessary

Core Concepts in Database Management Systems (DBMS)
Data Abstraction and Its Three Levels in DBMS
Data abstraction is a logical function in a Database Management System (DBMS) that separates the raw data from the front end. It hides the complexities of how data is stored and managed, providing a simplified view of the data to users and applications. Since efficiency often requires complex data structures to represent data, developers hide this complexity from users through several levels of abstraction to simplify interactions with the system:
