The infinite algorithm, the universe. Some times people say, "Cleanliness is next to godliness;" What a stupid thing to say but then nature seems to be falling apart so beautifully.
Read his book "Chaos" and you will understand why we need to stop burning carbon TOMORROW. I managed to get his Mandelbrot formula running with the aid of a math tutor friend, on a 286 computer. I used GW basic to write the program with math set on exponential. Each answer was printed on the screen, the poor thing was so overloaded that the dot matrix printer could keep up with its solutions. A fascinating little project, I attempted to run it on a 486 and got nothing but a blur down the screen. But the lesson was clear, the difference between stable chaos, which is relatively predictable and total chaos, which has no discernible reference point is a small decimal point. And that is the climate system we are returning the carboniferous era to.
Yes, but nature works in an incredible interesting way. If you try to destroy nature, it automatically start self-defense mechanism. It’s like physics; if you push the wall, the wall is pushing against you.
"Relativity eliminated Newtonian illusion of absolute space and time, quantum theory eliminated the Newtoniant dream of a controllable meeasurement process; and chaos eliminates the Laplacian fantasy of deterministic predictability"......Chaos James Gleick.
The book _Kaos_ (3:17 in his bookcase) by Gleick appears to be the Turkish translation of his book _Chaos_ . 1960's TV trivia fans will remember KAOS as being Maxwell Smart's nemesis on Get Smart.
@CatherineRemark Kakva je knjiga? Ja sam je slucajno vidio u jednom film,pa mi se cinila zanimljivom,film se isto zasniva na toj knjzi. Pokusacu da je citam na eng. al bojim se da dosta toga necu razumjeti.. :D Hvala ti na informaciji :D
Just learned about the book through Robert Sapolsky's Stanford lecture series on behavioral biology available here on UA-cam. Excited to read it!
same!
@@reesegizzarelli6886 i study physics and i think non biology students should have something similar
same here!
Same
sameee xD
Superb book, I picked it up at random because of the cover art and stark title, it's now got a permanent spot in my library.

who is here from veritasium?
Yup
Another yup.
Me.
we're going down the rabbit hole!
myupp
Bought the book chaos 1989 in Gävle Sweden. Fantastic!
Probably the best I've ever read.

Thanks
the best book ever !
Why?
This seems like it is a fragment from a documentary. Anyone knows the title of the documentary?
im reading chaos now :)
The scale's the thing wherein I'll catch the conscious on the swing.
