GOING VIRAL #6: Inside the Land of Make-Believe - Part 2

DEBUTED: Apr 9, 2020

Hey There Fellow Traveler -
In this episode I continue my explanation of the wide and wonderful world of scientific modeling by looking at the many ways models can go wrong. I set out to explain six ways, but realized I could only fit three into this episode. So, I'll save the next three for the next episode.

SHOW NOTES
1. Chaos theory is sixty years old, but still in its infancy. There's so much we don't understand about its bedeviling concept of indeterminate determinism. If you wish to learn more about it, here's a pretty good layperson's article to get you started titled, "An Unpredictable Universe: A Deep Dive Into Chaos Theory": https://fouriestseries.tumblr.com/pos....

That's it for now. Wishing you a wonderful day ... and an awesome journey. Stay safe. Stay strong. And stay positive!
Love,
