      not only that but if you look up slow motion explosions on youtube and look closely the inital explosion looks like the mandelbrot set, and you can see that as it expands there are little bits of contraction in every single explosion if you take it frame by frame

      So, basically, 'Chaos' is a misnomer now. There is clear method and math to the madness. Are we really living in a simulation :-)? Sometimes, it fascinates me to see all the advancements made in math, science. probability. stats etc with a simple thesis to put some structure/framework to quantify the world around us. It has helped us explain a few phenomenons, create products, even predict stock prices, human behavior (looking at patterns and trends etc) but the other part of me is conflicted - for life and its energies cant be modeled. It's too fascinating to be modeled out and the vastness of the universe and my spiritual beliefs are a complete anti-thesis to my scientific side. Heck, even science is ever changing - now, we are discovering qubits - particles that carry both -ve and +ve charges, which has deep implication to our view of physics and the world around us!
      While amazing, how much can humans really 'figure out' vs realizing there is something more to life that what even our more prolific attempts at math/AI/ML will ever get us to.. Or, perhaps, there isnt a higher power :-)?

      That's probably the ideal situation. If a tutor were to customize a lesson for you specifically, they'd probably aim for a difficulty level you'd find interesting, and a lecture that you could mostly follow. You'd also be very slightly outside your comfort zone, to give you room to "grow into" the lesson. It would also be a bit challenging and would leave you with a few questions to mull over, thereby slightly increasing the chance of watching another video, or of reading a book or article on a similar topic.

    Feedback from UCLA A/Prof Heather Zinn Brooks:
    "At first, it seems totally crazy that increasing r would lead to cycles... if it's describing population growth, why would a bigger r cause a drop in some years? In fact, the magic is in the (1-x_n) factor of the equation, which models a carrying capacity. The idea is that populations are typically resource-limited, so growth can only be supported up to a certain point. Once you think about that, it makes sense that huge growth rates could result in "boom and bust" cycles in the population, because the population would grow faster than their resources would support."

      Manamrit Singh not really, mathematics is an abstract concept and it won’t make you understand the universe. It is more of a tool that you can use to „understand” the universe through physics. I know several brilliant mathematicians who decided to study physics when they understood the difference. Mathematics is not really that interesting when it comes to studying it. It’s the same as learning about black holes in physics, it’s a very brief lecture compared to other stuff that might seem boring like mechanics, kinematics, rigid bodies, aerodynamics etc.
