I've come to accept that in complex systems you can't separate the signal from the noise. Signal emerges from the chaos, but chaos is a precondition to the emergence of signal. So when reading social media you just have to train your brain to quickly scan it all, discount the chaos, and search out the signal.
- Simon_says 7y agoIt sounds like “your brain” is separating the signal from the noise.
- SkyMarshal 7y agoYeah that's what I mean, it has to be separated after it's created. There's no naturally-occurring generative complex system that can only generate signal and no noise/chaos.
