[QUOTE="bemis, post: 11049, member: 197"] I was just sperging out about the show, I can't promise a landing when I'm really just spouting off Maybe another way to think about it though, would be to go back to finance again. Lets say I'm simulating a securities market, and each security is a reliable random-walk algorithm for randomized output, such that securities go up and down in a fashion similar to real life. Someone who is bad at running simulations, would say "I want to effect this simulation by putting my finger on the scales" (a constraint of sorts). The wiser option would be to say "I want to interpret simulation data to reflect a particular scenario" (looking for emergent properties). Put even simpler, A bad simulator writes over his simulation as it runs, the wise simulator reads and interprets from his simulation as it runs. Superior systems form from emergent properties over time, systems bound to collapse are ones laden with arbitrary constraints. It's a kind of negative space thing on the artist's canvas. Or seeing the man in the marble before a chisel is set to it. Maybe what I'm really trying to say is that the Right Wing outside of AF has a lobotomized imagination. [/QUOTE]
