The standard recipe for multiplying a 2-by-2 matrix requires eight multiplications. In 1969, Volker Strassen discovered a procedure that uses seven rather than eight multiplication steps. Strassen’s approach was later proved to be optimal. https://t.co/gIwymlEJvV

How does complexity arise in evolution? How do innovations emerge? We must deal with networks and hierarchical patterns to answer this challenging question. Check the chapter by @niles_eldredge and I. Temkin in https://t.co/3F69t8UtEE @manlius84

Is evolution predictable? Would the biosphere look the same if we re-played the tape of evolution, as conjectured by SJ Gould? Here's an excellent paper on this challenging problem by Michael Lässig, Ville Mustonen and Aleksandra M. Walczak https://t.co/JesV0AjlZh

"Understanding the major transitions in evolution is about understanding scale limits. I like to think of cities as a biological system that has undergone a really radical transition from other organisms."
