Looking at just a few decades is very myopic. It is often useful to zoom out and look at the larger picture. In the last 20k years sea level has...
I think this video explains it about as simply as possible. [MEDIA]
People interested in this subject might want to read a couple books by Norbert Wiener. I used to have a copy of his book Cybernetics: Or Control and...
I use this to block ads. Its not a program, just data for a file and service that already exists on your OS. It works really well. The downside is...
Not sure exactly what you are looking for but here are a couple suggestions. They are not toys and don't hold your hand, but there is a lot of...
That would be a fun exercise. There are so many similarities and notable exceptions that it could fill a very thick book. But to do it justice a...
I know what you mean. I can't say how many times I have argued with someone only to find out that we were defining some key term differently....
Don't get me wrong, I like RAW's stuff. I still have Cosmic Trigger on my main bookself and even pull it out occasional when having conversation with...
Perhaps I can shed a little light on this Robert Anton Wilson character. He is an author of books that are usually categorized in the science...
Now, be honest. Were you wearing a pith helmet as you wrote that?
But you don't work out anything. This is obvious because your ideas do not pass the dimensional analysis test. You never present the math because it...
Right. A pencil sharpener ... with a giant CRANK but no pencil. Not even a hint of a pencil. And what would a pencil mean if you never do the math....
Of course he is trolling. Notice his avatar is a crank. His nonsensical posts are just an attempt to frustrate the more serious types here. All...
Here is a simple experiment that illustrates this feature. [3 minutes] [MEDIA]
As I said, I am skeptical. That is my nature. Proposing undetectable non-local hidden variables seems to me to be as much of a kludge as the spooky...
Thanks, that makes a lot of sense. From my own experience, when confronted with problem where no solution seems to exist, it invariably comes down to...
Interesting. I pulled that statement ("So the system is B*NOT*B = I and no real world classical B has this property") directly (I thought) from the...
The MIT lecture is using an analogy of course. There are (I suspect) a few reason for this. One is that he did not want the students bogs down by the...
Yeah I understand how the experiment works. I am not sure you do. If you take an electron and detect it in the magnetic field, you don't really...
To your first question I would say yes. There MIGHT be "invariant natural laws that govern the mechanics of how all things work." But that does not...
Separate names with a comma.
