This is where I record some of the witty words I came across. For a total stranger, they will require context to make sense. I always welcome discussions of stuff like this. - Lex Fridman podcast with Yann LeCun "Why does the wind blow? Because the leaves move" - E.T.Jaynes page 103 "how we solve a problem when it becomes too difficult" - Von Neumann "You should call it entropy, for two reasons. In the first place your uncertainty function has been used in statistical mechanics under that name, so it already has a name. In the second place, and more important, nobody knows what entropy really is, so in a debate you will always have the advantage" - Paul Dirac "Experiment can only be used to check agreement with the instantiation of an idea, rather than the idea itself" |
