Emergent property.
See gif.
There is nothing in rules of game of life that specify particle-like objects, yet "gliders" - easily recognizable, very localized phenomenons exist in this automata.

Wave-like with the focus on the word "like" - universe in its mechanics is not exactly like a wave on a lake - this alone is not enough to explain all of it - but it's similar enough for wave-like behavior to be very prominent in all of our measurements.

Just for everyone, in general, so long as you just go with what's apparent without reifying. That is, mistaking models of apparent behavior (i.e. epistemology) for what the thing is (i.e. ontology). Quantum mechanics is very easily understood conceptually. It's all interactions with things you can't see that have deterministic properties and probability distributions, sometimes conditional probability distributions that bad actors play up to make appear magical when they're things you see every day.

Or examples of such emergence like anon posted here >>16081811.

The thing that probably bothers the most people is the fact we can't get at the "ontology" of the thing, what it is, because we cannot directly observe it as you might see rain or clouds. That there may be some limit to our ability to directly access reality and test it, and so limits to what we can know in some ordinary way. This of course leads to the problem of underdetermination https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underdetermination

For example, is apparent randomness fundamental or merely local with a larger order that merely appears random? How large must the scale be to even be able to devise test to answer such a question? Most answers to all the questions people have had are stuck in that underdetermined phase until we slowly, progressively, figure out negations to them such that we can exclude them. Of course, it is far more likely that answers will resemble phenomena we already know than something wholly unexpected e.g. powered by invisible unicorns, so you don't throw the baby (everything else we know) out with the bathwater. Unless you're a grifter, of course, and want people's minds so open their brains fall out for your financial benefit.

Sure, why not? Naively, if I look at a wave pulse on a rope, or a water wave, or something like that, through a pixelated grid, and asked "where is the wave" the answer would be smeared out. "Well it's mostly in the middle here but it's also a bit over there and over there, etc."

I think the original sense in which the word "quantum" was used was to refer to the quantization of energy levels, not particles. I don't really see the connection. And the waves aren't quantized (in the way you are using the term) until they "collapse". Prior to measurement they are modeled as perfectly non-discrete.

It can be modeled as a wave. "like a wave". Various models of the thing is not the thing. This was explained and seemingly ignored >>16081857
>particles to emerge
The behavior observed is what is emergent. Particles are a model of what we observe, just as waves model something else about what we observe. Valence shells are a model as are bohr atoms. A model of a discrete event is different from a model of a continuity. These are all different parts of the things measured, not "the thing itself".
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_map_is_not_the_territory
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_models_are_wrong
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reification_(fallacy)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underdetermination

In summation some individual quanta fits our model of particles rather well, and a lot of them in series have a distribution you can model as a wave and on interacting have properties of waves such as cancellation, amplification, etc. All aspects of the same thing, none of it means the thing thus modeled "is the model". You can assume it is naively but that makes for all manner of silly contradictions.

You may not be understanding it as I do, at the very least. That is why I also included the relevant articles to related concepts, such as reification and the quip "all models are wrong". It may help to look them over.
>what you want to say is that without having enough information you don't know as much as as you would if you had access to ALL of the information.
No, actually. The more information a model contains the more likely it suffers overfit and poor predictive accuracy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overfitting
So the more you try to shape the map into the territory the less useful it is as a map, and the less like a map it becomes. So too for models.
>anyone unironically using it should be whipped
From where I'm standing it genuinely seems as though you don't understand it or any of the related concepts. There's a reason I give wiki articles.

an atom is the best map for a same element atom. it contains all of the info, it's a complete map. the issue is with getting access to all info, studying it.

Per linked articles that is not the case, excepting where one might be defining "information" here such that one is begging the question.

This is an equivocation. If "map" is synonymous with "atom", then you have effectively written "an atom is the best atom for an atom, because it contains all the same information as that atom."
>the issue is with getting access to all info, studying it.
Why, yes, the issue is with mapping it. Almost... almost as if maps are distinct from their territories. For more reasons than one. Funny how that works.

And if you are not begging the question in your definition of "information", that means it must be useful. It can't be useful for a map if it's the very thing for which you are constructing a map. Repeat ad infinitum of infinite maps of oh god everything has been machined into paperclips now why

we know atoms are identical and we have atom resolution in what we make (CPUs and shit). sure CPU are not identical, but mostly because of complexity and poor control of matter, at this point. the argument can be easily had on just a few atoms. we "see" them, enough to determine if one or two. which is good enough, since atoms are fungible. so then, with enough info, the map can become the territory, was all I was arguing for. not every time, just that the map can become the territory with enough resolution.

Worship? You're still projecting onto me what you want and think of people who, and this is the sad thing, just want basic decency. Kind of fucked up how you view that, which is why you treat people like shit so transparently.
>you keep hinting at it, you'll act friendly when I'll show signs of respect
It's called fairness. You want people to do things for you, such as help you understand something, you don't act like a shithead about it. You're not special and this behavior is unacceptable regardless of who you are.
>without you earning it in the first place.
With the narcissistic cherry on top. People don't have to suffer "earning" your so-called "respect". Common decency is not something special you've right to withhold while making demands of others, and the "respect" of such a person has less value than cow shit. You make your "respect" worthless because you don't value people enough to treat them decent in the first place.
>I kinda despise that shit, it's weakness.
Weakness is needing to have people "earn" your treating them like people. You're not strong enough to treat people as individuals valuable for their own sake or hold yourself to a higher standard, else you wouldn't classify common decency as "worship" and or such simple respect of others as to be withheld until they weather your shitty personality sufficiently for you.
