What in 2014 I told my own Stanford University Business Analytics Class that Caused my P.hD.-ed Sociology Professor to Set Himself Into Shock and Outrage and STONE SILENCE AND PARALYSIS!

(What my associated NASA Hard Rocket Scientists told me fifteen (15) years ago.)

There is not Society, but outright NONLINEAR ENTROPY (The Second Law of Thermodynamics as it is understood in optimal Classic Physics). To cope with this hard indisputable truth, simple linear human mind will never suffice UNLESS SAID MIND IS FORCEFULLY ANTINATURALLY MARSHALED INTO MULTIFARIOUS COLOSSALLY NONLINEAR ALGORITHMIC COUNTERINTUITIVENESS.

COROLLARY #1:The number and name of Private and Public World-Class Institutions into this , since the late 1950s, is extremely relevant. Some of those names appeared on my LinkedIn Profile. THEY DO THIS INCESSANTLY, CONTINUALLY AND FOR LIFE: “ … [THE} MIND IS FORCEFULLY ANTINATURALLY MARSHALED INTO MULTIFARIOUS COLOSSALLY NONLINEAR ALGORITHMIC COUNTERINTUITIVENESS…”

A QUICK EXAMPLE IS DARPA. DARPA SCIENTISTS VIOLATE THE LAWS OF PHYSICS DAYLY, EVERY DAY, FOR LIFE. And their wisdom argues, “…If you do not fail frequently, you will not succeed enough …”

COROLLARY#2: And because of the above and the lack of truly Exercising and Implementing the Scientific Method, so-called Social Scientists are overwhelmed by their designated ventures and “copings.” Making the Mind Nonlinearly Counterintuiveness takes a lifetime.
