I wasn't sure what to make of Yanofsky's "chaos universe" yet - its relation to complexity theory, etc. Or maybe related to the *binary lambda calculu*s (BLC - all programs are binary number strings): refs. https://esolangs.org/wiki/Binary_lambda_calculus https://esolangs.org/wiki/Dependently_Typed_Binary_Lambda_Calculus https://tromp.github.io/cl/Binary_lambda_calculus.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAb1QK1gMUs All programming can be done in BLC . So all "physics" can be written in BLC. - pt -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
