    Isn’t that putting the cart before the horse?

    Like, I sleep at night, get up and go to work the next day and do the same thing over and over and over. Until I come home and sleep again at night.

    Patterns arise from any and everything. Even randomness. You’re claiming that statistically, patterns exist. As opposed to what? Wouldn’t there have to be as much noise, somewhere in the void, as there are patterns within said noise?

    Patterns are only significant in context – with meaning.

    Like, you shouldn’t run the same path every day while jogging. Why? Because, in the context of security, it makes it easy for someone to mug you.
