  1. Quote from the podcast:

    "Back in 1945, there was this incredibly brilliant mathematician, John von Neumann and he was staring down the reality of the atomic bomb, the one he was actively helping to build.

    He basically said, "What we are creating right now is a monster, a monster whose influence is going to change history,
    *provided there is any history left.*"

  2. A basic algorithm for a basic guy: find the edge points in the binary image and change their colour to that of the target image. Rinse and repeat until the edge no longer moves.

    "life is code, and code is life… individual computational instructions are the irreducible quanta of life—the minimal replicating set of entities, however immaterial and abstract they may seem, that come together to form bigger, more stable, and more complex replicators, in ever-ascending cascades."

  7. John von Neumann once claimed, "with 4 parameters, I can fit an elephant, and with 5, I can make him wiggle his trunk."
    \[x(t)=\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^\infty\left(A_k^x\cos(kt)+B_k^x\sin(kt) \right)\]
    \[y(t)=\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^\infty\left(A_k^y\cos(kt)+B_k^y\sin(kt) \right)\]
    Here's a paper proving that von Neumann's claim is valid! 🔗 aapt.scitation.org/doi/10.1119
