Figure 1 illustrates the differences in access to STEM courses between schools with low enrollments of Black and Hispanic students versus those with high enrollments, with the most notable gaps existing in advanced mathematics, calculus, and computer science. Where do we want to be by 2094?

Calculus , which calculates rates of change and infinites. Science, technology, engineering and arts careers often rely upon at least one of these math specializations, so jobs with a math focus are often talked about under the other STEAM categories. Algebra , which incorporates unknown variables into arithmetic equations.

It didn’t help that his knowledge of physics was at best spotty (and, for example, I don’t think he ever really learned calculus). “Lick” Licklider —who persuaded Ed to join BBN to “teach them about computers”. Nowadays we’d call it the trie (or prefix tree) data structure. But his name shows up from time to time.

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.

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. This isn’t as such a statement of physics. Rather, it’s a general statement about observers , or, more specifically, observers like us. There are several issues here.

And for example there’ll be some analog of a light cone that governs any kind of “spreading of immunity” associated with an antigen “at a particular position in shape space”—and it’ll be defined by the causal graph of interactions between immune elements. I know of a few perhaps-closer approaches to our conception of multiway systems.
