Why Choose a STEM Career?

CTE Learning

Hospitals, governments, newsrooms, homes, and other workplaces depend on technology to communicate and run operations efficiently. Many designer prefer being freelancers as it allows them more flexibility to work and live where they want and to choose the projects and clients they want to work for.

A crisis of clarity: can defining biodiversity help us protect the natural world?

Futurum

We often get wide agreement from business leaders, NGOs, governments and more that biodiversity is something that needs to be saved,” says Charles. I think this work requires a lot of flexibility. WHAT ARE YOUR PROUDEST CAREER ACHIEVEMENTS SO FAR? WHO OR WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO BECOME A PHILOSOPHER? I was hooked.

How Did We Get Here? The Tangled History of the Second Law of Thermodynamics

Stephen Wolfram

But, first and foremost, the story of the Second Law is the story of a great intellectual achievement of the mid-19th century. There’s a discussion about H for systems that interact, and how there’s an equilibrium value achieved. It’s exciting now, of course, to be able to use the latest 21st-century ideas to take another step.

What Is ChatGPT Doing … and Why Does It Work?

Stephen Wolfram

But say all we’ve got is the data, and we don’t know what underlying laws govern it. It’s not obvious that it would be feasible to find the path of the steepest descent on the “weight landscape” But calculus comes to the rescue. In this particular case, we can use known laws of physics to work it out.

Computational Foundations for the Second Law of Thermodynamics

Stephen Wolfram

But there’s really just one principle that governs all these things: that whatever method we have to prepare or analyze states of a system is somehow computationally bounded. We’ve been talking about a demon that’s trying to “achieve something fairly simple”, like maintaining a barrier or a “one-way membrane”. How do we achieve this?

Even beyond Physics: Introducing Multicomputation as a Fourth General Paradigm for Theoretical Science

Stephen Wolfram

Part of what this achieves is to generalize beyond traditional mathematics the kind of constructs that can appear in models. To say something more global requires the whole knitting together of “economic space” achieved by all the local transactions in the network. It’s very much like in the emergence of physical space.
