I may be the only person to rhyme castles with assholes but it is surprisingly possible for you to say something original right now. |

Symmetry is the universal clue to answering many problems, relates to fractal chaos theory, and all around is fundamental to beauty in our mind's eye. Everything that works for me won't work for others who have not had weekly migraines, dyslexic properties and all the other dissimilar experiences in life. It's the old example of nature and nurture. As for Ali, the measure of his craft is equal to the ethics of being a good human being, something that is rare except for the most remarkable people.

Subject: RE: BS: KISS keep it simple From: Steve Shaw Date: 01 Apr 23 - 01:22 PM Muhammad Ali was a superb boxer, the greatest of all in my book, and a supreme athlete who didn't need "clever self-promotion" in order to be appreciated. He was the very best at what he did. "Clever self-promotion" is generally used by less talented individuals who need to thrust themselves into the public eye in order to get noticed and get by. I know of a player of a musical instrument (which I'd better not name...), for example, who purports to teach the instrument online and who writes lots of articles but who isn't actually that good. That sort of thing. Something to reflect on perhaps. |

Subject: RE: BS: KISS keep it simple From: Donuel Date: 01 Apr 23 - 08:29 AM Thank you, being forward looking is not always fantasy. We have many different words for it. I think our future concept is what separates us from dogs who have only an inkling of the future but enough to be successful in the hunt. The words we use for this ability are many; able to see around corners, prophesize, predict, prescience, crystal gazing, etc. but fantasy is not among them. All in all we are fairly successful with it. Perhaps one in several billion people are remarkably good at it. I'm about one in 2,000. |

Subject: RE: BS: KISS keep it simple From: Donuel Date: 01 Apr 23 - 07:18 AM What makes spinning stellar black holes different from a static Eienstien black hole are internal zones where centrifugal zones are so strong that they stall the gravitational force inward and create time zones that nearly stop and electrodynamic forces that shoot out the poles. Since the human brain is made by our universe the quantum structure of nanotubes and the nothingness of the central vesicles may offer more clues to the quantum nature of time and the if anything can happen it will happen properties that would really piss off Steve regarding subjects like ESP and prescience. |

Subject: RE: BS: KISS keep it simple From: Donuel Date: 31 Mar 23 - 04:38 PM There were fewer of these eternal primordial black holes after the big bang but the number of new black holes increased over time at such an increasing rate that the effect on space gradually grew and is fairly pronounced today. Noticing the rate of black hole formation and the accompanying growth of space expansion is all that I found promising. Looking back on this it was really not that hard. |
Subject: RE: BS: KISS keep it simple From: Donuel Date: 31 Mar 23 - 03:54 PM If you think about the unstoppable collapse of a body to form a black hole, you might think that the body ends up with all its matter concentrated in a single point of space – the singularity. But again, this picture of the spacepoint-singularity residing in the center of the black hole is simply wrong. Using our analogy, you can see why. The singularity is the whole of the axis – and the axis represents a space direction. Hence, the singularity is not a point in space – it is infinitely extended! This is exceedingly weird. From the outside, the region of a black hole looks like the surface of a sphere (in our model with two space dimensions and one time dimension, like the circumference of a circle). But inside that sphere, which has only a finite surface area, you can “hide” objects that are infinitely large – infinitely extended in space. How does this work? Again, it works because time and space trade places. Our simple scenario corresponds to an eternal black hole – a black hole that has always existed and will continue to exist indefinitely in the future. From the outside, the black hole is infinitely extended in time, but has only a finite size in space. Inside, the tables are turned: Time is only of finite extent (it starts at the horizon and ends abruptly at the singularity-axis), but instead one space direction, the axis direction, is now infinitely long. If you have a hard time getting to grips with this mixture of time and space, rest assured that physicists have a hard time visualizing it, as well. Luckily, physicists have a language in which the properties of simple black holes can be formulated very precisely – the language of mathematics -, and using this formulation as a guide, it is possible to develop a pretty good intuition about spacetime containing a black hole. This analogy isn’t perfect. In the analogy, the change-over of space and time happens suddenly, at the boundary. In a more precise formulation, the change-over is more gradual. In a way, the time direction is bent more and more inward as you get closer to the black hole. As the bending is strong enough to prevent any object from moving in any direction but inwards, you cross the horizon. Also, the black hole is an especially simple specimen. It is spherically symmetric – a so-called Schwarzschild black hole, after Karl Schwarzschild who, in 1915, was the first to write down the equations defining and describing such a black hole; a special solution of Einstein’s equations of general relativity. (However, it took physicists more than forty years to understand the weird spacetime geometry that Schwarzschild’s equations imply!) As has already been mentioned, this type of black hole is eternal – it has always been there, and will always be there. More realistic black holes with a definite beginning (for example those produced by the collapse of a massive star) or eternal black holes which rotate all have a somewhat more complex inside structure. Apart from these qualifications, the analogy holds, and it does capture an essential aspect of a real black hole’s spacetime geometry – time and space changing places at the horizon, and some fundamental consequences of that exchange. Under such intense gravitational fields, no life could survive so experiencing time going in directions unknown to life will never be experienced. |

Subject: RE: BS: KISS keep it simple From: Donuel Date: 31 Mar 23 - 08:54 AM Sorry, my disturbed fool needs attention... Other reasonable people already recognize that certain cancers can be cured with medications and treatment modalities. Survival after 7 years is considered a cure but no one conflates that with all cancer cured. MD is now in that category with a new gene therapy aided by CRISPR technology but it is a very specific treatment that can cure a specific geneticly caused form of MD.. My peculiar interest in black holes, cosmology and the multiverse many worlds theory has been confusing because they were my own thinking points, particularly in the beginning. I have often said anyone and everyone should hold a view of cosmology be it for religious or scientific curiosity or knowing where they live. I was fortunate that my curiosity was sparked by witnessing an event42 years ago that defied our current scientific understanding. The best book to begin to understand is Flatland. You will be able to understand Michiu Kaku because he is as good if not a better communicator than Carl Sagan. His books began with Hyperspace and today The God Equation. |

Subject: RE: BS: KISS keep it simple From: Donuel Date: 31 Mar 23 - 06:17 AM While everything in science is derived indirectly when we can't go there directly like the inside of the sun. To be true it must be testable, reproducible and falsifiable. For String Theory that test will be to perfectly derive the mass of a proton using string theory equations. That is how close we are and yet far away. It turns out we do get something from nothing. The energy in the Universe equals zero when the positive energy of matter and radiation is equal to the negative energy of gravity, or when adding all the different galaxy spins turn out to be zero. Hawking used to say the dirt you remove from a hole equals the volume of the hole. |
