Revealing causal links in complex systems: New algorithm shows hidden influences (techxplore.com)
Getting to the heart of causality is central to understanding the world around us. What causes one variable—be it a biological species, a voting region, a company stock, or a local climate—to shift from one state to another can inform how we might shape that variable in the future.

Why good things often don't lead to better outcomes (danfrank.ca)
Many people believe that when something good happens, positive outcomes naturally follow — but I’m here to explain why that’s often not the case. In complex systems, improvements or advancements frequently set off a chain of reactions that can undermine the original benefits. This creates a paradox where progress in one domain often doesn’t lead to better results.
