Thank you for explaining it to a layperson. Your enjoyment of this hobby shines through and so you’ve enlightened me to some new in the world.

Has your hobby produced anything useful or sharable? Or is like all the beautiful pictures I’ve taken that remain on my phone?

Tell me more. I’m no rocket surgeon, so use comprehensively monosyllabic word thingys.

I’ve read that some do it to help the scientific community figure out stuff. What though. Idk.

Is AI doing this too? Is it faster, better, more creative at optimizing?

Aren’t molecules already optimized, so what are you actually doing? Folding them? What does that even mean?

Help me understand.

Interesting note. That is the 2 maggots, where famous artists in the 1930-1960’s would have afternoon coffee and discuss politics, paintings, and everything of the day .
