I made a YouTube video today where I derive the path integral formalism and Feynman diagrams for the nonlinear Hawkes autapse. I made a 3 part giant thread series earlier this year on it but a chalkboard lecture might be a better format:

I might joke that Chamath’s posterior is highly nonlinear except we all know that’s actually Jon Ossoff.

When is Bayesian updating difficult? When the posterior is highly nonlinear: small changes in signal accuracy swing it sharply. That's where people err most. Timing matters too: in low-difficulty tasks, seeing signals at once eliminates base-rate neglect.

One of the funnier things they did was mix a ton of diodes into the concrete they poured for that building so any bug sweeping hardware would be overwhelmed with false positives.

At an abstract level democratic electorates are nonlinear adaptive systems full of unexpected tipping point behaviors and modeling it as anything but and pretending you can extrapolate behaviors years to decades in advance is just bad science.

FFAK being nonlinear has its complicates but ultimately im so glad its formatted that way. The joy of just jumping around to work on whatever part of the story/world/characters is probably one of the biggest reasons it still feels fresh and new to me even after 12 years lol.

that said, they'd probably be editing this digitally on a nonlinear deck by this point (late 80s/early 90s) right? considering the budget they had for this

The one thing I think most people agreed with when it comes to BotW and TotK is that the nonlinear structure of the story didn't work as well as it did with the gameplay.
Some marriage of the two could be perfect.

I hope this really was just a way to familiarize the dev team with the "classic" Zelda formula so they can apply it to the next game along with what they learned from BotW.
