Chaos, Prediction and Golang: Using AWS Machine Learning to Mispredict The Mandelbrot Set

When I was a CS student about 13 years ago (damn it, I'm getting old), I was very much fascinated by Fractals. After doing some coding, debugging and fixing things, I had my first Mandelbrot explorer up and running with zoom capabilities. Then, in the closest thing I have ever had to a religious experience, I witnessed how the most simple and random looking way of generating the set produces something that is infinitely self similar and amazingly complex. It was the first time I truly understood how order can spawn out of chaos. It's one of the best examples of how chaotic systems are sensitive to initial conditions.
