Assn for Computing Machinery<p>“You blew my mind,” said the subject line of an email from <a href="https://mastodon.acm.org/tags/ACMTuringAward" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ACMTuringAward</span></a> recipient Avi Wigderson to Ryan Williams, a theoretical computer scientist at MIT. Earlier, Williams has posted a proof online, establishing a mathematical procedure for transforming any algorithm — no matter what it does — into a form that uses much less space.

naught101<p>Twitter was also good for this years ago, but I don't think mastodon is a good replacement, because it's the randomness of the feed swamps critically useful information. I think good public-good optimised algorithms could help here.</p><p>I also think Lemmy is more useful, because information is naturally hierarchically organised there (via communities and comment threads on posts), and so it's much easier to find important relevant stuff.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mastodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/twitter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>twitter</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/facebook" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>facebook</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/lemmy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lemmy</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/algorithms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>algorithms</span></a></p>

jan…what if life itself is, even in principle, nonsimulable? There are, of course, many things that mechanization by rote does better than life, in terms of speed, repeatability, precision, and so forth. On the other hand, a living system…may be characterized by its ability to handle ambiguities and take chances, indeed, its ability to err.
