It's that I know where I parked my dream car but it isn't there any more. In last night's dream, I went back to where I parked my motorcycle but there...

Yes, full, although now and then there are some slight mistakes, and my car never remains where I parked it.

The great needle plays, stitches, winds, and paves As the strands of quantum fields’ webs of waves That weave the warp, weft, and woof, uni-versed, In...

Plus, in our imagination we see very dim qualia that have about 90% transparency, and full qualia in our dreams.

Of course, the subconscious also determines what gets into consciousness and then structures it from its parts but then it becomes a unified whole and...
January 05, 2022 at 00:14
Well, the foundation has been found; it's the quantum 'vacuum' and its fields that form matter, but that doesn't mean there is some expected deep mean...

It's probably a focus short cut that other subconscious areas can use for reference to what's going on.

A neutrino walks through a bar.

Good jokes ongoing.
January 04, 2022 at 01:07
Well, now it's effable, but what are you interested in?

Sorry, it pushes the plates together: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casimir_effect

All is field, plus 'Nothing' cannot be.
January 04, 2022 at 00:57
Field points are just the moving continuous points of a field that can be assigned a value. The excitations of a field oscillate, too, as the sums of ...
January 04, 2022 at 00:55
Well, there's no empty space because all is field, and there's no inert space as Newton had it as a background who's only quantity was value. Einstein...
January 04, 2022 at 00:42
I think that the approach of having creation and destruction operators is just another way to model the quantum fields. The fields oscillate on their ...
January 04, 2022 at 00:33
Well, we know that the universe grew very large in a hurry, which could already be called an 'inflation' as a normal word and that there is a humongou...

"us" is still the subconscious brain will analysis going on just like always.
January 03, 2022 at 23:07
From Wiki: Given the equivalence of mass and energy expressed by Albert Einstein's E = mc2, any point in space that contains energy can be thought of ...
January 03, 2022 at 23:00
The number 25 matches the number of entries now in the Standard Model. The whole field fluctuates from the continuous field points oscillating; the po...
January 03, 2022 at 22:13
Well, protons and neutrons consist of electrons and up and down quarks that trade off with gluons sort of. So, then, to continue, it makes logical sen...
January 03, 2022 at 21:01
P.S. So, the elementaries are constituted of quantum fields, and not of any new and distinct substance, which would be not only be impossible but woul...
January 03, 2022 at 18:57
The up and down quark and the electron seem to be the most useful. There are also forces. So, in short for now, the elementaries are directly the quan...
January 03, 2022 at 18:48
The quarks and leptons are elementary in the particle realm, yes, but they are not First/Fundamental overall because all the elementaries of a type in...
January 03, 2022 at 06:16
True, and so to find the basic we look toward the simplest state.
January 03, 2022 at 04:38
We can eliminate the complexities and even the composites as being Fundamental, for they would have parts that would have to be even more Fundamental.
January 03, 2022 at 04:16
Another problem with the 'God' supposition is that, say, He could stop the virus, extinctions, and so forth, but He doesn't and never did; so, this is...
January 03, 2022 at 01:43
Yes, but it's hard to stop the doomsday glacier from melting in the next few years and raising the sea level ten feet, which amount surprised me. A Ye...

Maybe he's stuck at an airport or on a long vacation. It's more of a purposeful mix of philosophical logic and science since they seem to agree. What'...

Anton Zeilinger claims to have found that the bedrock of reality is randomness, to 3-sigma or more. Do you think the bedrock has to be more than just ...
January 03, 2022 at 01:25
Yes, the simplest.
January 03, 2022 at 01:08
In science, there is one thing, mass-energy, and it is conserved, unable to be created or destroyed; so, it just is, as the base existent that has to ...
January 02, 2022 at 19:21
Yes, but not made from a Higher Will, for not even a composite can be First, much less the complexity of a Planner. There's no Big Guy named Will.
January 01, 2022 at 21:08
Yes. Defendant: Your honor, the universe made me do it, so please don’t sentence me. Judge: Yes, true, it did, but we still have to lock you up until ...
December 31, 2021 at 02:22
Yes, indeed, as I too have had to refute over the last thirty years and more. Here's the promised gist: Since there is something, a lack of anything i...
December 31, 2021 at 01:58
Normally, yes, but there is cause to celebrate and be sure when the philosophical logic matches the most successful theory in all of science! It's no ...
December 31, 2021 at 01:31
Not by "whom", but to do what they have to do as how they are. How would the will not follow the will? What other source would do the willing instead?
December 31, 2021 at 01:02
The focus of this thread is solving 'First Philosophy' and thus becoming certain of it. I have done it, and can even match the philosophical logic to ...
December 30, 2021 at 23:48
I was thinking about the "from nothing" part. Since there is no time passing in the lack of anything called 'Nothing', it's not like there was 'Nothin...
December 27, 2021 at 03:51
'Nothing' lacks time, so there's no "very long time".
December 26, 2021 at 01:32
The inboard motor of neuronal analysis still does what it has to as what it was meant to do. Fixed Will 'Poetry Slam' Discussion Ah, in the whole you’...
December 24, 2021 at 04:37
To continue the philosophy, we can now refer to the Something as the Permanent. What it forms are mostly temporaries, the entire universe, even, altho...
December 24, 2021 at 04:01
Since there is something, a lack of anything is out, plus there is no sequence in time form nonbeing to being because 'Nothing' has no time, nor anyth...
December 24, 2021 at 00:55
This post is great. There is what there is as likely the simplest partless thing which for some base reason has to move, making for waves which make f...

I don't think anyone is saying the sensory inputs make for the whole of the will's analysis. There's lots more going on, plus rumination is a feedback...

Illusion. "More than" hasn't been found. Were you in Vietnam fighting through the worst of it? I was at the tail end.
