Re: [OT] Plato\'s Pub and Philosophical Society
However, the more complex the system, the more effect even a small change can have. When you get to things as complicated as the human brain, quatum mechanical effects can no longer be ignored. However, one of the big things in QM is randomness and chance. For an organism as complex as a person, prediction based on the laws of physics breakes down. In the game of life you link to runs on a very small set of rules that ignore all possibility of QM effects.
