Well, being as that other thread was taken over with our conversations based on the sciences rather than that chicks lack of drug use let's discuss these things here. Anything goes, we already discussed the e=mc3. How about quantum entanglement to start it off? I'd like to believe in it, as it would act as proof that certain things really were in a way "made for each other". What we do literally echoes an eternity, or as long as that actions effects take to reach the opposing electron. Shit, even the big bang is still a theory, but if the big bang had taken place then there was once a form of singularity, so quantum entanglement would be much deeper than expected.
A land where everything is animated? Oh my god, Dave please put your knowledge of mathematics to use and find a way there....
Im not familiar with this particular theory. Would someone feel like breaking it down on a quick note or should I hit the books?
1. qward is the opposite of OA (the ACTUAL bizarro world) in the DC universe, weaponers of qward, google is your friend 2. quantum entanglement is basically that if you entangle two quantum particles, they will act opposite one another, no matter the distance betwixt them. instantaneously. i.e. faster than the speed of light.
It's basically theorizing that if two electrons are created together, they are therefore connected ("entangled"). A change in the "quantum spin" of one electron will have an effect on that of the other one. Think of two electrons, and an invisible trail between them. The actions of one affect the others through this invisible "travel" medium. This could hold the key to teleportation, as the "information" that is being sent from the one electron to the other would travel much faster than the speed of light.
Ok thank's you guys. So the collapse of the wave function determine the state of both entangled particles instantly although apart?
well, one of the questions is if that's actually so, but if we are to believe the experiments, it definitely is personally? I want to see the cryptographic applications fuck, that will be so beautiful. two "boxes" entangled with one another, like, quantum one time use sheets.
It is very exciting. Something I find interesting, (I apologize for bringing up Hinduism again in a thread looking to discuss theories in mathematical language), is that in the first book written by Paramahansa Yogananda, in fact it might even be the first chapter, he describes his first meeting with a saint. He says that he was on the way to this saints house but got lost, and a man came to him and pointed him in the right direction, but when he got there he realized that the man was in fact the saint, who was in the home meditating with people and had apparently never left that day. I vaguely recall him explaining, obviously in his limited spiritual method, how one can manifest oneself in two or more places at once, to give the illusion of having 2 bodies when in fact it's one body existing in 2 places at simultaneously. I should go look at the explanation he gives because although it surely will appear at first to be metaphysical BS, quite often Yogananda drops clues which over a hundred years later match perfectly with the boldest theories we come up with. One thing that always struck me funny was that he speaks so simply and to the quick to judge mind appears at face value to be spouting nonsense, but he just throws these numbers out there which always align with the results generated by rigorous mathematical equations which take so much time to complete.
No need to apologize for bringing that up, in fact I'm glad you did...many old texts (religious or not) hold many truths, or can in someway help us to understand the present. We've already discovered that a subatomic particle or an atom, such as an electron can literally be in two places at once. Really, it's possible for one to occupy an infinite amount of spaces simultaneously. Look into the double slit experiment, it's pretty cool. So, our subatomic particles clearly have the ability to be in two locations at once, however we have never visually seen two of the exact same large object in two places at once. But think about it...if our large objects are all made up of subatomic particles, then could it be possible? Another crazy thing to think about is the ideal of back-action. When we try to determine the exact location of an atom we typically send a light wave at it, which just so happens to literally push it backwards in the slightest bit.
science IS theory. there is virtually nothing in science which is called "truth" the term "fact" is thrown around often when discussing things with lay folks and in middle and highschool sciences classes, but really most things considered facts in these cases aren't facts at all. but science is science because it is corrigible, it is potentially wrong. people all the time are finding errors in theory and then refining the ideas, trying to correct them. science works on proving things false, not by proving things true
