“Neurons that wire together, fire together”
As the old addage goes, when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like
a nail. People tend to inflate the centrality of whatever field they are in. The
reader is encouraged to take the structure of the last half of the addage: “…
everything looks like a
𝑋
”, and replace
𝑋
with any concept or idea. Examples
include “network”, “equation”, “negotiation”, “algorithm”, “cupon”, “ham
mock” — as the first nouns might betray, the write of this piece is indeed of a
computer scientific inclination. That aside, the reader is asked to note that the
truth value of the statement varies with the noun.
