What is the Fibonacci sequence, “nature’s secret code”? \ stacker news ~science

pull down to refresh

The Fibonacci sequence is a famous mathematical sequence where each number is the sum of the two preceding ones. People claim there are many special properties about the numerical sequence, such as the fact that it is “nature’s secret code” for building perfect structures, like the Great Pyramid at Giza or the iconic seashell that likely graced the cover of your school mathematics textbook. But much of that is more myth than fact, and the true history of the series is a bit more down-to-earth.

##:Mathematical Explanation

The Fibonacci sequence is a series of numbers in which each number is the sum of the two that precede it. Starting at 0 and 1, the first 10 numbers of the sequence look like this: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, and so on forever. The Fibonacci sequence can be described using a mathematical equation: Xn+2= Xn+1 + Xn.

things that captured my attention in the article:

"Keith Devlin is an emeritus mathematician at Stanford University, ... senior researcher emeritus at the Center for the Study of Language and Information. He is a World Economic Forum fellow, a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and a fellow of the American Mathematical Society. He has written 33 books and over 80 research articles."

the dark occultists and their puppets have been systematically destroying the beauty of science and men's creations for a very long time.

What actually do you want to say? You did bold a lot of things. Are you critical of these or you like it?

there is the hard science: math, geometry, frequency sciences, as well as numbers in space & time, which have beautiful explanations and then there is the narrative. this author ultimately seems to say that these do not matter to perception of the world as much as people claim they do.

in fact, the dark occultists constantly attempt to engineer things that go against the beautiful science (sciere = to know): designer dogs, ugly buildings, trash art, etc.

"In 1754, the descendants of the Merovingians, who through the leadership of Charles de Lorraine controlled freemasonry in France, laid the foundation for the Scottish system of degrees. This system had 25 degrees, and soon gained eight more.

The French-Scottish system thereby contains 33 degrees divided into seven classes. There supposedly was a staircase with 33 steps in the Temple of Solomon.

This is the reason why the masonic pyramid on the American one-dollar bill is built of 33 stones. This is the most widely spread system in the world today."

these people adore symbolism, they can't help themselves. similar to our love of numerical memes such as 21, 420, 69, etc.

our memes are better!

The Fibonacci numbers are also used in charting retraces and rises of stocks and commodities. If you can predict these correctly, you will be wealthy.

Can you do it? I mean you know Fibonacci chart?

Yes, but not as accurately as would make me wealthy. I can see the charts, but making the proper entry and exit is a much more difficult task. Also, you have to deal with the market makers who are frontrunning your orders. The way I lost a lot of money was when COMEX decided to raise margin rates on the contracts I was holding, forcing me to liquidate at a huge loss. So, when you are in the organized markets, you are at the mercy of too many people and organizations whose only job is to take your money.
