I use one too. Can't you select the text you want to quote by finger? Keep your finger on the text and select "copy"?

The story of Webb makes it very questionable if Nancy Roman will be shot up in time (2025?). Webb was about to be launched in 2010, and costed about 1...

I just woke up and with my weary head and saw your answer. Imagine to come back like a baby! I actually think that it happens... The theory I tried to...

How do you know? Authority says: "This is actually an unresolved question in QM. There are many interpretations of QM. Some attempt to define what con...

If nature doesn't bear a basic form of the mental, then how can the food we , or the mother carrying a baby, transform in a conscious being?

Again, you direct your nose to authority. You don't understand the matter, which is easy to understand. You say, "but these and these say this and tha...

I tried to express the notion of freedom in a painting. There is a wall with an aperture. Barbed wire spans the aperture. In front of the wire we look...

Like I said: A stoning will descend from the celestial sphere, thereby cleansing the Earth from the disturbing wicked elements that stubbornly resist ...

It's a strange coincidence. In a comment on another thread (if it can be proven that time is an illusion) I wanted to say that this view was once prop...

The clocks that Einstein positioned at all points in space are fictional. An ideal clock doesn't exist in reality. An ideal clock is a reversible peri...

What's real is mostly what we agree to be real. Which is not the same as saying that in that case there is no difference between fantasy and reality.

Why do you think that? We cannot see if the pendulum goes forward in time or backwards, if the pendulum is ideal (so, for example, its amplitude grows...

The 3d torus has a singularity at the center. A wormhole with a tiny throat. On both sides of the mouth a universe can explode into existence. A unive...

The filled balloon that's let loose with open mouth, the virus falling in static air, or leaves in the wind, where do they touch the Earth?

I tend to agree. The continuum can't be broken up in points, but still points are used in defining it, by pointing at the fact that you always forget ...

The climate change, the increase of atmospheric energy, is a small problem in the wider scope of fucking up nature. In the past, the Earth was once co...

In the sense that everybody can use them, value them, ignore them, or consider them part of an objective reality.

It's direction. It can exist in a superposition of two equally probable states. But coming to think about it, how can we be sure? Maybe a hidden force...

In the sense that it's us who invented it.

Western-world humanity maybe. The western ideal wants people to be 100% (scientifically) rational machines. With 100% rational thoughts (whatever that...

The paradox is essentially the paradox of the equality between x and dx. The dx contains an infinity of intermediate points x.

The outcome of measuring spin up or down is random. It is actually the device measuring the electron spin that should be used in casinos. "I have put ...

An exactitude that that can only be reached in a very limited practice though. An approximation is not exact, for there is no real thing corresponding...

Indeed. The architectures of totalitarian regimes look alike. Vast squares surrounded by homogeneous creations, a big front building from where the fü...

This paradox shows that intervals dx are not the same as x. All dx tògether have length 2, because you lay them together mutually orthogonal. Points c...

Did they actually practiced the telemetric operations at 40 K?

The measurement problem exists in QFT all the same. QM is a cross section, for free fields, of QFT. However complicated you make the math, the problem...

The dream reflects the unconscious longing for being in his paradise. Your not feeling at ease in his paradise reflects your attachment to the enormit...

Architecture was and is considered of great importance to express state power and give people a sense of being submitted to the system. In modern-day ...

Hundertwasser. There should be more buildings like his.

What about western populations being introduced in indigenous ways of living? Florinda Donner wrote an excellent book about her experiences inside an ...

It's since the Enlightenment, when the ancient Greek ideas were reinvented, that a part of mankind started to live in a way that inevitably leads to t...

Hydrogen cars would be great. You can even drink water from the exhaust pipe.

It's not the math telling you that. That's the easy part. It's the interpretation that's the hard part.

How do you know I haven't got a degree? What is so important about a degree? I actually studied physics if you put so much value in that. Quantum fiel...

Dunno if that's a good idea. "We"? The original plan contained no cameras, as these were too big then. They stuck to the original plan, so no cameras ...

If the magical thinker uses quantum physics to piggy bag on quantum mechanics or quantum fields he is fully justified in doing so. The expert Brian Co...

I see what you mean. I think though, that the scientific approach, the empirical approach involving setting up experiments, watch what's going on, rep...

Consider me on your side mate! Many physicists, mathematicians, and computer scientists, are fan of Bach. Because of the beauty of the mathematical st...

JDEM, ,together with SNAP, AdEPT, INTEGRAL, ALGILE, and FERMI, powerful instruments to unravel the dark energy behavior of the early universe. Finally...

Seeing that widgets are joint out of balance, when the telemetry system provides exact information would be handy. Building on basis of telemetry and ...

It seems the problem is that a small camera disturbs the equipment, because maybe a wire emitting IR radiation can produce false images. Still... For ...

I think Plato's idea of the metaphysical domain of mathematical objects was a domain of unchanging objects, indeed as you described. The 5 Platonic bo...

Ha! Tennis player Djokowic isn't kept against his will in Australia. He is free to piss off whenever he likes!

Haha! Well, the integral, for example, is a functional. It's a function of a function. Every function returns a value (considering bound, continuous f...

Moral means knowing the laws of Nature? Isn't knowing these laws the cause of the chaos we increasingly observe in Nature? I know what you mean, but i...

Dunno. Only by a strict following of His Final, Undubitable and Infallible Word, humanity can be saved from eternal damnation and premature exterminat...

It operates in the dark because no light is cast. Wouldn't it be handy, only to get the te?escope started, to see what they are doing? So they can man...

The recontruction of a painting then needs context too. I referred to the other thread because also there a context is eliminated. The same kind of co...
