The Story Continues: Announcing Version 14 of Wolfram Language and Mathematica

Stephen Wolfram

There’s a public Prompt Repository that so far has several hundred curated prompts. We’ve also added libraries for areas such as business and public policy simulation.) A typical workflow for systems engineering begins with the setting up of a model. The prompts can define personas (“ talk like a [stereotypical] pirate ”).

A 50-Year Quest: My Personal Journey with the Second Law of Thermodynamics

Stephen Wolfram

In July I was making “encryption-friendly” pictures of rule 30: But what Jack and I were most interested in was doing something more “cryptographically sophisticated”, and in particular inventing a practical public-key cryptosystem based on cellular automata. What kinds of models could realistically be made for these?
