Ethan's Wiki Update #7
Hi, small additions this week.
What’s New
Interesting/Fun Page: Spurious Correlation
"Unrelated" correlation
With GenAI's made-up explanation, scatter plot and GenAI image
Wind power generate in Taiwan correlates with Google searches for 'i am tired'
I guess this illustrates, correlation does not necessarily imply causation. Random things can be “correlated”, even with high statistical significance, especially an arbitrage timeframe is selected. Or, maybe, just maybe, they are really correlated with some unknown mediator?
Cellular Automaton Page: Contents What Can We Learn about Engineering and Innovation from Half a Century of the Game of Life Cellular Automaton?
What's been made in game of life, oscillators, gliders, guns, etc.
Talks about computation irreducibility, like the nature of the game is unpredictable, but there is an idea to achieve some predictable and understandable outcomes from the unruly and unpredictable nature
Random
I once collected a few cellular automatons in this page. If you have never heard of them, or you have only heard of Game of Life, I suggest have a look at others.
I want to share more YouTube videos from Not Just Bikes too. But I can’t think of a way to put it in the Wiki. So I will paste it here for now. Worth the watch.
Not a lot this week. But if you haven’t read last week the Trap of Money, I suggest you to!
