rapidly diminishing explanatory returns from increasingly explicit microfoundations. [Wright 2009] And a shorter one from Von Neumann, reported by Claude Shannon: "My greatest concern was what to call it. I thought of calling it 'information', but the word was overly used, so I decided to call it 'uncertaint

what to call it. I thought of calling it 'information', but the word was overly used, so I decided to call it 'uncertainty. When I discussed it with John von Neumann, he had a better idea. Von Neumann told me, 'You should call it entropy, for two reasons. In the first place your uncertainty function has been use

t. Because each key is only used once you can't use any sort of statistical method to work out the message, making the one-time pad perfectly secure. Claude Shannon proved this in 1945 while working for Bell Corporation but, due to wartime secrecy, his proof was not published until 1948. HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_015906

u can see a link on my website. Very soon after Turing’s paper was published, a number of people proposed better practical implementations. In 1943, John von Neumann of Princeton University created the architecture for ENIAC, the first stored program computer, developed for the United States Army’s Ballistic HOUS

arguments in Zhe Human Use of Human Beings seem closer to the 19th century than the 21st. In particular, although Wiener made reference throughout to Claude Shannon’s then-new work on information theory, he seems not to have fully embraced Shannon’s notion of information as consisting of irreducible, meaning-free

rnet, everyone doing any of those things became a data generator. The result was an exponential rather than a linear rate of knowledge accumulation. John von Neumann also has a cameo in Zhe Human Use of Human Beings, for game theory. What Wiener missed here was von Neumann’s seminal role in digitizing computation.
