I disagree with the disdainful posts about Wolfram here. Sounds like insider vs. outsider politics, jealousy, or lack of actually reading and understanding Wolfram's work. His recent Physics Project is fascinating and original - and seems to be converging on some interesting discoveries.
- mathematicaster 4y agoPersonally, I find it just takes the willingness to actively separate his exposition of the concepts (whether novel or not) from his self-evaluation. It helps me to keep in mind his own admission of being quite egocentric (something like: "After all I am part of the club of those that named their company after themselves").
- jjeaff 4y agoDoes an admission of guilt make a thief more palatable? Even if he keeps thieving?
- 082349872349872 4y agoIt's been 20 years since NKS; please let us know in 2044 how you still feel about the "seems to be converging on" part? (if you want a connection between mathematical physics and informatics, I'd suggest looking at quantales before cellular automata) Lagniappe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6rVHr6OwjI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6rVHr6OwjI
