Programmers have been acculturated in such as a way as to encourage a kind of slack-jawed amazement at the purported limitlessness of what their machines can achieve, and thus they have fled from acknowledging that modern #computers actually have some serious issues when it comes to representing numbers and doing #mathematics. There's been such a massive overemphasis on pure speed and bulk of computation that issues with accuracy and cumulative error in calculations have been swept aside, assumed to be taken care of with the proper #software—and yet all our software and its development is in the custody of people who are culturally disinclined to want to think about such problems.

Let's be honest here: today's top-flight #programming people have been schooled to fret over some very strange non-issues. They have a very poor sense of priority, which is partly why they've gotten so political lately: the #technology elite seem to think that their machines are already so perfect and wonderful and amazeballs that the real problem with computers is that humanity is too stupid to use them.

I'm fascinated with fractal mathematics

>The Mandelbrot set (/ˈmændəlbroʊt, -brɒt/)[1][2] is a two-dimensional set that is defined in the complex plane as the complex numbers c {\displaystyle c} for which the function f c ( z ) = z 2 + c {\displaystyle f_{c}(z)=z^{2}+c} does not diverge to infinity when iterated starting at z = 0 {\displaystyle z=0}, i.e., for which the sequence f c ( 0 ) {\displaystyle f_{c}(0)}, f c ( f c ( 0 ) ) {\displaystyle f_{c}(f_{c}(0))}, etc., remains bounded in absolute value.[3]

"In mathematics, granted that we are giving any serious attention to mathematical ideas, the symbolism is invariably an immense simplification. It is not only of practical use, but is of great interest. For it represents an analysis of the ideas of the subject and an almost pictorial representation of their relations to each other. " – Alfred North Whitehead (1861-1947)

Hello player. This is a prototype and there will be several scenes in the game with these Sci-Fi math adapters. If you don't like math, don't worry, you won't have to calculate it on a calculator. The numbers will be small, the puzzle will have several devices 🤓
