It is no small feat that what is essentially pre-debugged C64 Basic psuedo-code, is yet dynamically illustrated quite nicely by bespoke javascript rather than a pulled-in browser c…

You seem to claim that quantum mechanics can/does in fact model chaotic behavior, only that such chaotic behavior is "not actually real" in ways. That claim would seem to contradic…
