Precisely. That's what physics is. Philosophizing about nature. Math is just the quantitave description of ingredients. And a recipe to cook them. Som...

Logical causations or necessities seem to lack an element of time or matter.

Some small birds know to take hide if the overlying shape is hawk-like but cry out for food if it's a friendly shape. The animal forms are already kno...

Yes, but that's why we have made clocks that run off only 1 sec every 10exp15 years. Not perfect, as they don't exist, but still... There were no cloc...

The real emergency, though floods and fires are serious, lies not in temperature change per se. It's the short time in which it happens that matters. ...
April 23, 2022 at 23:35
Seems pretty clear though that the planet has never been so fucked up as in recent times. Even the big asteroid that once hit had a mild effect in com...

Okay.

What's the drive to rule in the drive to smoke?
April 23, 2022 at 23:11
Anyhow, Ill back off from your thread. With these preons, that is. :smile:
April 23, 2022 at 23:02
Yes. I read all of Feyerabend and wrote a thesis on forms of reality, from empiricism, logical positivism, to van Fraassen, Radder, Pickering, etc. An...
April 23, 2022 at 22:58
Yes. But that's exactly what I don't do. For example I asked why the model aint popular while it explains all.
April 23, 2022 at 22:54
But why isn't it a part of philosophy? The love for wisdom. Besides, it's really not that inside knowledge kind of thing. Math is just about quantitie...
April 23, 2022 at 22:49
It can be very easily laymanified.
April 23, 2022 at 22:46
I was exactly wondering about them. The implications.
April 23, 2022 at 22:45
So. Gibbs free energy, Friston blankets, markov blankets... I saw them all here. What's wrong with a Lagrangian? Kant would have liked it! Not to ment...
April 23, 2022 at 22:38
Where do you see me using math?
April 23, 2022 at 22:36
If charges rotate wider, the magnetic moment changes. The superstrong color force keeps the prekns together, like the quarks in hadrons. So the Lagran...
April 23, 2022 at 22:34
Not sure about the preon, but a Mexican hat? Don't we all know that? But you're right. This thread ain't the place. Though the most fundamental cause ...
April 23, 2022 at 22:31
The muon's magnetic moment is larger than thought. Which happens if three charges circulate wider.
April 23, 2022 at 22:24
The electron: C/C/C/ Up quark: CCU Down quark:C/U/U/ Neutrino UUU / is anti, C is 1/3 charged, U is uncharged Color and superstrong colors cause bindi...
April 23, 2022 at 22:20
That's the point. The preon model isn't even considered. Rishons and braids show similar structures Triplets.
April 23, 2022 at 22:14
A wise observation. That Krauss guy is a total creep. Together with Dawkins, Harris, Pinker, etc. he started a new religion.
April 23, 2022 at 22:12
Oh! Sorry! It's your thread. Ill leave it...
April 23, 2022 at 22:05
Also of interest, Braid group
April 23, 2022 at 22:04
Physics was part of philosophy once... Why not anymore? Especially physics not accepted on other forums. Ain't this the place? Natural philosophy! :gr...

Preon models

Ah. With his hands?
April 23, 2022 at 21:39
To give it a push.
April 23, 2022 at 21:37
No. That can't be done. The combination has to be colorless. And there are two kinds of them. Every particle process can be explained. Proton decay is...
April 23, 2022 at 21:34
So that's not motion? How can things get in motion without giving them a start kick?
April 23, 2022 at 21:29
Yes, but how can you set something in motion without moving yourself? Is he inert, supermassive?
April 23, 2022 at 21:21
Why is he called mover then?
April 23, 2022 at 21:16
And the unmoved mover? How he moves?
April 23, 2022 at 21:14
The demiurg sets it in motion only?
April 23, 2022 at 20:52
Why is that ad hominem? Well, it actually litterally is. A question is asked to you, It just asks if you don't understand. It doesn't imply that you'r...

April 23, 2022 at 18:30
Western folks fear death. For the samurai it's nothing to fear and connected with honour. Death and night and blood (Yukio).
April 23, 2022 at 18:27
That's the question most difficult. You would say no, as they were always there, like the gods. But since gods have created the universe in heavenly i...
April 23, 2022 at 18:22
Well, I don't believe this. They just exist forever. What can be one of the reasons for their creation. Eternal intelligence stands on another level t...
April 23, 2022 at 18:15
There you God me! But gods are wise. They have creation power. Particles don't. The particles can be eternal and still created by gods. I think.
April 23, 2022 at 18:12
Only events, paradoxically the name is, contain both cause and effect. It depends which way objects on worldlines flow which precedes which. If matter...

One big difference between Japanese art and Western art is the lack of individuality in the Japanese. The art has to conform to standards, so it seems...
April 23, 2022 at 18:02
That can't happen. That's why the universe is eternal.

Okay. It throws a new light on revolution though. Eeeh.. on evolution. Viva La Evolution Revolution!
April 23, 2022 at 17:53
Good question! Ill reflect. Too much at once...
April 23, 2022 at 17:50
You took the words out of my mouth! You're right. I don't see (get) your argument. So I ask you indeed!
April 23, 2022 at 17:49
Dead matter indeed was once alive matter. But matter is not intelligent enough to cause itself. It's too dumb, perfectly created as it might be (it co...
April 23, 2022 at 17:47
It's a scientific dogma. On which Darwinian/Dawkinskian evolution is based. There also is an organism based version of evolution. Not popular though. ...
April 23, 2022 at 17:43
Dead matter needs a creation. Eternal intelligence doesn't.
