It is precisely the failure of repeating patterns to scale up in aggregates, and a counter-intuitive simplification as a complex system scales up.

Here's one example: a tornado -- highly unpredictable, one moment we have one set of meteorological conditions, suddenly there is another, drastically different set of measurable conditions.
Please don't spew unsupported absolutes, especially trivially countered ones, this isn't the place for it.
- reliablereason 3y agoYou are making straw-man arguments, where you assume that your interpretation of my text is what I meant. I could have been more detailed in my comment, but that was not where my mind where when I wrote my comment. And in my defense the only part of your comment that I really understand thoroughly is the last paragraph, so I guess this holds true for both of us, we could both be more descriptive.
