So do you understand what that wolfram man is doing? what is that cellular automata and what does it have to do with thermodynamics?

>> No.15042189

>>15042185
My impression is that he's attempting to use cellular automata as a form of data visualization for the process of entropy (probably a heat transfer model) as an example of the 2nd Law.

>> No.15042195

>>15042189
Are you the same guy? What is wrong about that idea? (other than entropy being a mystification and that he's working in 2d and the processes are in 3d)

Is that why he didn't respond to my comment on his stream about simulating magnetic fields in a cellular automata to represent a holographic field of consciousness? He didn't want to discredit himself by responding to an obvious schizo like myself?

if his model fully agrees with mainstream physics and is internally consistent that's essentially an independent verification of mainstream physics. why do people act like replication isn't valuable? do they just put faith in some 'memorized trivia' idea of 'science' without understanding basic epistemology?

>> No.15042314

>>15042278
how is inventing another model that makes exactly the same predictions any relevant to "replicability"?
if the current state of maths can be represented by a set of axioms then there is an infinite amount of equivalent models. so why the fuck would a new one matter?

Kek just proving me right in a different way; materialist redditors with a 120iq are just psychopaths who should be treated like vampires or demons. I’m starting to understand why marxists killed the intellectuals.

You missed the part where the argument only has power because it's true. Not surprising for a schizophrenic though.

But your definition of “true” Is circular. It’s true because authority says it. It’s true because you believe you can bully others by ganging up on them and asserting it. You believe in nothing more than heleglian sophistry.

>> No.15042546

It's true because it's a factual claim that he's doing the exact same thing every big-headed senile scientist does, with the same lack of testable hypotheses.

the point you've missed is that these wisened great men die before completion of the task. wolfram, especially now that he has help, is young enough to actually pull it off. kek
