How does our universe work? Scientist Stephen Wolfram opens up his ongoing Wolfram Physics Project to a global effort. His team will livestream work in progress, post working materials, release software tools and hold educational programs.
Just learned about this. A long read, but really interesting.
I wish I were smart enough and/or educated enough beyond my undergrad Physics classes from decades ago to actually understand this. I get the big picture stuff, then as it gets into the details there’s always a point where I realize I’m decoding words, but I have no idea what the hell they’re writing about.
A brief history of time didn’t come out until 1988. You implying that the ability to break it down, Barney style, is necessary to be smart or to fully understand something?
