Why don’t people get it? Maybe our educational systems are simply not doing a good job of teaching what is important. Down with all the so-called “sciences:” materials science is the only thing that matters.
Completely agree. The foundation of all complexity science is grain growth. And not the phenomenon in a wider sense. The Grain Growth model specifically.
As such, it should be considered the model of models.
As someone interested in modelling human behavior, I always think of my agents as Grains. Sometimes they don’t act like it, but that’s because they don’t know any better. If humans behaved properly, they would behave like grains.
Exactly. Should we start questioning if we should say Agent-Based Modeling or Grain-Based Modeling? Really all NetLogo models are derived or inspired by the grain growth model – even retroactively through the well-known Models Library time-turner. The real question is why some here have been obfuscating the truth with their silly Formula 1 games, ProbLabs, and DeltaTicks. Who benefitted from this? It’s time for the people to know the truth.
It is indeed the real question. And I think we all know the answer. But who dares to say it out loud? No one. And why?
To me the answer is clear: Because we’ve been brainwashed by establishment models.
Why is it called Wolf Sheep Predation when it should have been called Grain Grain Predation? Mere coincidence?? No, subliminal messaging to turn us all into sheep.
It’s time to stop being sheep, and to start embracing our true grain form.
Just wondering: should we add a tag called “sarcastic” here?
I think that would undermine the seriousness of the conversation, John. But thank you for asking.
How does the Sandpile model figure into these revelations?
Well, well. So now people will silence our voice by saying that this is “sarcasm.” No, this is a real movement, and we will not rest until the erasure of grain growth is corrected from the Annals of NetLogo. Wolf Sheep? Really? Did those animals invent predation? We all know grains have eaten other grains since the beginning of time. For billions of years, they have flocked together, bumped into each other, and dined with philosophers. The real question is: which are the powerful forces driving this erasure? Who wants to hide the truth?
Bravo!!!
