Simulation from a project involving information-theoretical dynamics, a detailed explanation + the codebase of which can be found on GitHub.

I have no idea what I'm looking at but it's fun to watch

This deserves more upvotes, this is really neat. If developed further, this could alter the way molecular interactions are simulated and studied.

Thank you, that’s the goal!

I'm not going to be doing much any time soon, but I'm working on an a project that could directly benefit from this, and any progress I make, if I go anywhere with it, will definitely be PRed back at you. Maybe around February is when I'll be able to pick work back up on that particular project.

Hell yeah, I’ll be around building on this in some capacity. Feel free to get in touch in the meantime

Oh! Emergent geometry from non spatial dynamics! Of course!

u/inboble 2d ago

well yeah, of course!

It’s a hybrid model that uses a probability distribution of interactions between non-spatial entities to stochastically generate graphical structures, which further refines and acts alongside the probability distribution to stabilize a reliable distance metric.

GH repo is in the comments for more details.

He's saying you need like a 6th grade level overview, not many people will take the time to study something just to figure out what it even is.

u/inboble 2d ago

You’re right, some stuff isn’t worth teaching in 6th grade though simply because its meaning doesn’t fully translate, if ya know what i mean.

Ultimately this is a byproduct of a tool I made for a larger project, so if someone thinks it looks kinda cool then i’m happy lol.

The goal is to use laymans terms to aid understanding so as to actually attract interest, many more minds capable of understanding this will be interesting in trying to do so if they don't have to invest that effort up front to even understand it at all. I know I just repeated myself with different words, but it's something I've learned over the years. It's like a motte and bailey argument but without the contentious point, it's just deeper understanding.

Think of r/explainlikeimfive, but like your not talking to a complete dumbass, you just need to simplify the broad strokes a little lol

100% a valid criticism and something I often run into with this kind of work, especially on reddit where the potential audience can vary drastically in sentiment depending on where you are.
Definitely worth thinking about!
