And indeed particularly in chemistry and engineering it’s often been in the background, justifying all the computations routinely done using entropy. There was also a sense that regardless of its foundations, the Second Law was successfully used in practice.

Pathway from school to environmental geography • Ben recommends studying an undergraduate degree in Earth and environmental science, biology, chemistry or mathematics. If you are more interested in social science, consider studying this as an undergraduate degree and environmental geography as a postgraduate degree. •

Since the standard Wolfram Language evaluator evaluates arguments first (“leftmost-innermost evaluation”), it therefore won’t terminate in this case—even though there are branches in the multiway evaluation (corresponding to “outermost evaluation”) that do terminate. As the Version 1.0

I strongly believe that the world needs engineers with strong critical thinking skills, who know how to ask questions, understand bias, construct and evaluate arguments, and think comprehensively and creatively. This goes hand in hand with ethical thinking.

We have limited class meetings (3 classes per week, 8-10 weeks per trimester), untracked classes with the entire 10th grade taking physics (I am very happy about this, and it is also a factor in thinking about the design, of course), and students who have taking a full year of Modeling Chemistry in 9th grade (also yay!).

Pathway from school to forest ecology • Becoming a forest ecologist starts with studying fundamental sciences like biology and chemistry in school. It is inspiring to see the research mainstreamed and the arguments of “is climate changing?” If you feel inspired by any of these questions, forest science might be for you!

However, König had another theory to form the entire argument around this artifact. König believed that the artifact was from the Parthian period, specifically from 250 BCE to 224 CE, although later analysis proved that the artifact was likely from the Sassanid dynasty, which lasted from 224 CE to 640 CE.

The function Map takes a function f and “maps it” over a list: Comap does the “mathematically co-” version of this, taking a list of functions and “comapping” them onto a single argument: Why is this useful? But we wanted to be able to compute hundreds of different functions to arbitrary precision for any complex values of their arguments.

I think Yves Pomeau already had a theoretical argument for this, but as far as I was concerned, it was (at least at first) just a “next thing to try”. That’s not something ordinary chemistry—dealing for example with liquid-phase reactions—tends to consider important. But just what might the “choreography” of molecules be like?

Sometimes textbooks will gloss over everything; sometimes they’ll give some kind of “common-sense-but-outside-of-physics argument”. This argument is quite rough, but it captures the essence of what’s going on. But one never quite gets there ; it always seems to need something extra. Why does the Second Law work?

In 2015 Ed told me a nice story about his time at Caltech: In 1952–53, I was a student in Linus Pauling’s class where he lectured Freshman Chemistry at Caltech. Richard Feynman and I would get into very fierce arguments. After class, one day, I asked Pauling “What is a superconductor at the highest known temperature?”
