Meet David I majored in anthropology and biology at university. I took courses with a biological anthropologist who inspired me to study how humans use biology and culture to adapt (or not) to stressful environments such as food scarcity, extreme temperatures, and common diseases. Cultivate curiosity and share your knowledge.

Across Peru, thousands of people do not have access to clean water or efficient transport links. He is investigating the connection between poor transport links and social inequality, and bringing sanitation to a remote community in the Andes. Access to water and sanitation are fundamental human rights. Published: June 30, 2022.

But in a quirk of history that I now realize had tremendous significance, I had just spent a couple of years creating a big computer system that was ultimately a direct forerunner of our modern Wolfram Language. So for me it was obvious: if I couldn’t figure out things myself with math, I should use a computer. Computation theory.

We are using a statistics and computing software. Sophie on a canopy access crane in China. Environmental science is an interdisciplinary field which seeks to find effective means of understanding and managing the world in which we live. A degree in a biological science or environmental subject is generally required.

But at a personal and social level it was still always a lot of fun being around Ed and being exposed to his unique intense opportunistic energy—with its repeating themes but ever-changing directions. And there was one way in which Ed and I were very much aligned: both of our lives were deeply influenced by computers and computing.

And all I’ll be able to do here is give a snapshot of my current thinking—which will inevitably be incomplete—not least because, as I’ll discuss, trying to predict how history in an area like this will unfold is something that runs straight into an issue of basic science: the phenomenon of computational irreducibility.
