  3. Re:Thought experiment: chaos. on Nonlinear Neural Nets Smooth Wi-Fi Packets · · Score: 1

    In one of his books, Richard Feynmann has an interesting story about something similar to this. Apparently there was a popular bar near Los Alamos. It was so popular that sometimes people would be turned away. People started using *how crowded* it was *last week* to figure out how crowded it would be *next week*. What Feynmann found was that the population of the bar fluctuated around a certain value, but that simply knowing *last week's* value could not predict *next weeks's* value, as all of the actors involved were autonomous.
    There is a bar in Palo Alto that has a sign , that reads "Nobody goes there anymore..It's to crowded" ...---yogi Berria
