hameru ( @hameru@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 11•9 months agoThat kinda makes worrying about anything sound really dumb, doesn’t it?
Waltzy ( @Waltzy@feddit.uk ) 8•9 months agoBut you’ll worry anyway, as your anxiety is a product of your biochemistry, which is governed by deterministic processes.
celeste ( @celeste@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 3•9 months agoFirst of all is determinism not proven and may be/get disproven by quantum mechanics.
Second of all it also validates your suffering because it’s seen as a determined thing to happen so that may give you some solice.

TheBlue22 ( @TheBlue22@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 4•9 months agoYou can’t change what has already happened. Learn from it, analyze it, but don’t dwell on it for too long.
There is always a tomorrow. The feelings of today don’t have to influence the feelings of tomorrow, next week, or next month.

Imagine some sort of a polynomial function
f(x) = r * x * (1-x)
that is also depending on some constantr
in range0 < r < 1
.You apply
x = f(x)
for many times, at your wish. Think of it as a for-loop, or f(f(f(…f(f(x))…))). The resulting value will reside (converge) to some value.So, this looped function sets to some stable point with any
r
in range untilx < 3
. After that, it doesn’t converge but it will constantly jump between one of 2 points, then 4, 8, … and at some point it goes wacky-macky.The graph from Wikipedia merely shows the probability of the value
f(f(f(...f(f(x))...)))
for allr
in the given range.If you’re curious, Veritasium’s made a good explanation here: https://youtu.be/ovJcsL7vyrk
