But what I’ve increasingly been realizing is that actually it’s showing us something even bigger and deeper: a whole fundamentally new paradigm for making models and in general for doing theoretical science. But there remained plenty of phenomena—particularly associated with complexity—that this paradigm seemed to have little to say about.

Meanwhile, at the beginning of the 1800s Joseph Fourier (1768–1830) (science advisor to Napoleon) developed what became his 1822 Analytical Theory of Heat , and in it he begins by noting that : Heat, like gravity, penetrates every substance of the universe, its rays occupy all parts of space.

We can draw upon various fields such as science, humanities, social sciences, and arts to enrich our understanding. Critical thinking enables me to analyze information, evaluate arguments, and make informed decisions. It allows us to see connections between seemingly unrelated subjects and encourages us to think outside the box.

As a result, students at PUIs generally have fewer opportunities to gain experience and skills in the more niche areas of science. I took part in GeoPaths and MEERCAP because I wanted to gain real experience in laboratory and fieldwork research for climate sciences, especially since this project has so much potential.

First, I know more computer science and computer programming now than I did in 2007. I’ve taken a MOOC on algorithms and read, in whole or in part, books and articles that contain significant discussions of computer science-y things like time complexity and NP-completeness. Mostly this is because of two things.

Statistical Mechanics and Simple Programs Back in 1973 I never really managed to do much science on the very first computer I used. Today I would have more strongly made the rather Feynmanesque point that if you have a theory that says everything we observe today is an exception to your theory, then the theory you have isn’t terribly useful.

The Second Law of thermodynamics is considered one of the great general principles of physical science. Sometimes textbooks will gloss over everything; sometimes they’ll give some kind of “common-sense-but-outside-of-physics argument”. This argument is quite rough, but it captures the essence of what’s going on.

And it’s one that I think has extremely deep implications—both in science and beyond. The ruliad is an ultimate example of multicomputation, and of what I’ve characterized as the fourth major paradigm for theoretical science. And we can trace the argument for this to the Principle of Computational Equivalence.
