Probably not as I would have nothing to compare myself to, so how could I experience awe? How would I know what I was? Who or what would tell me? Woul...
Living on the street is often better than living in slums and disgusting and dangerous rented accommodation. There are lies, damn lies and then statis...
I would spend eternity musing about how absurd my existence was and trying to see if I can see myself. I would wonder why I existed and what god like ...
:up: Quantum entanglement seems to be a way for information to appear at more than one place at the same instant in time, regardless of the distance b...
The world is what people make it to be. The people elect the government in the UK and the people tolerate the nefarious behaviour of the rich, no matt...
I would do both, I would do everything and find out everything I could, as it would be about everyone in similar situations, not just about me. That's...
Always a wise way to go. It's important that I plunge my pitchfork into the correct target. B****** nefarious landlord, banker, billionaire, king or m...
Well, I hope we are all watching very carefully and are not basing our lives totally on the seemingly very apt 'Well I'm alright Jack!' I am glad you ...
In QFT, the universe contains 'interacting' fields. Every field permeates the entire universe, yes? So does a 'photon'/field excitation really 'travel...
F****** B****** profiteering landlords! :rage: :rage: :rage: :rage: Why are we putting up with this SHIT? If I had the power Jack, I would make free h...
No because the 0.1 joules of energy was not lost, it was converted to other energy types. No, the total energy of the system after the first collision...
Do you think this universal mind is self-aware and has intent? Why did it need to break parts of itself off to create something limited as you or I? S...
Sometimes we can overanalyse ourselves and think we are becoming too irrational there or too addictive here. Employment of caution and self-analysis, ...
Words associated with the word Amity: amicableness, benevolence, comity, concord, cordiality, friendliness, goodwill, harmony, kindliness, neighborlin...
No, if anything, I think I have underestimated its importance. Hope is the fundamental, that comes before love, joy etc. Your use of the word 'grant' ...
Nina was one of the greatest singers there has ever been. Who can doubt she really believed what she sang. Isn't it a pity we ALL sometimes forget to ...
Victor is trying to explain that e=mcsquared is a consequence of conservation law. If energy was not conserved during pair production, then e=mcsquare...
I agree, you will never lift your fog until you understand that potential energy IS a property of a system. Taking a measurement is an 'instantaneous'...
The triumph of human hope over pernicious religious or spiritual woo woo. We need human spirit yes. But I prefer the original meaning of spirit as Car...
Ok, in that case, I fully recommend addiction to hope! It will destroy your fears! I remain hopeful that most people can defeat any compulsion to beco...
Here is a good offering from Victor Toth(quora), describing conservation occurring during pair production. Might help you appreciate the concepts invo...
Hope destroys fear. Hope is far more powerful than love or evil imo. Hope allows you to die, and as you die, you can still maintain a belief that our ...
I think it's you, who continues to clearly demonstrate your lack of understanding of the experiment presented. The use of the word 'arbitrary,' as pre...
A valid image. A lion is not very good at physics either. I think this is a reasonable comparison. Only based on your inaccurate, bias guestimates. He...
Your concerns are well founded and are noted. Based on your profile, you have much more experience on TPF than I. Getting the balance correct is not e...
Old habits die hard guys. 30+ years as a secondary school teacher. My remit was to cause learning. I never gave up on a pupil. I mean no insult to Mr ...
Thanks for your support, I appreciate it and I agree with your assessment of the situation. You have inspired me to make one further attempt to get th...
Feel free to ignore science all you want and remain delusional about what you think you know about energy conservation. I will continue to listen to t...
You are also making a complete assertion. Where is your exemplar experimental evidence from an experiment that proves any energy loss cannot be attrib...
Energy loss is energy changing form. The total energy in the universe remains unchanged. There is no evidence of an 'outside' of the universe for any ...
I don't see what observational reference frames or relative experiences of space and time have to do with the material existence of space and time. I ...
Your musings seem to jump around in very bizarre ways, from small gliders on small ramps to carts and now big cars travelling on big roads against 100...
Yeah, going right back to the Greeks, a lot of events have come and gone, no more chariot racing! You might get a giggle at this one: "Art competition...
I think I understand physics far better than you do! You type an insult like: and then you ask me to consider another of your 'interpretations,' of wh...
One of my fingers is currently pointing into space and I do so as time passes. I can therefore indicate/represent pointing at space and time by raisin...
What are you defining, physically/materially, as your 'internal mind? Your 'random imaginings,' would imo, be in the main, unimportant, yes. But we ar...
Based on wave/particle duality (my favourite flavour of dualism), yes. Then of course there is QFT. From Quora: Rodney Brooks (Ph.D. in Physics, Harva...
An example, that would be very difficult to label anything other than immaterial. An example whose existence would be very difficult to deny and can d...
I find your concerns relatively trivial. I see no issue with your insistence that at the start, we should take the total energy as mph, where h is not...
ITS ALL RELATIVE! The Earth is rotating on its axis at about 1,674.4 km/h (1,040.4 mph) The orbital speed of the Earth around the Sun is 108,000 km/h....
In the section titled 'Experimental Description,' it states: "The glider was kept at the top of ramp at rest." In the section titled 'Data and Analysi...
Surely funerals are their thanksgiving equivalents, especially each other's. They can sing their anti-life ditties about the glorious joys of oblivion...
Yes, I think that's correct, for the summer Olympics anyway. Rugby Union - 15 players per team - has been featured on the Olympic programme four times...
I accept your viewpoint, but I find it unconvincing and akin to god of the gaps proposals. You have provided no compelling example of an existent imma...
I am not a physicist or a philosopher, so I am not best placed to debate the academic details involved in the example experiment I linked to. My exper...
