Can I be a a physycysist?

Physics is dull.

Evidently she and Ram Dass' guru hasn't read the Vedas. In it, it's clear that spirituality most certainly came to India in the form of a substance as well. Seems to me meditation has been riding psychedelics skirttails ever since. Not to say meditation is of no value, but this whole self-annihilation talk, and having "a separate self you put forward" makes Buddhism sound like an acquired dissociative disorder. I can't help but notice that enlightenment seems a fool's errand. And, obviously, meditation retreats didn't stop Goenka from overeating.

Nowhere in the Bible is universal salvation taught. Quite the opposite even from the mouth of Jesus himself.

So, I _am_ some weird guy who "just woke up thinking this" (prior to philosophical training), and even after digging into these concepts for years I still have the same questions. How do oughts obtain stance-independently? What could that even mean? You don't even need to say, "I _deny_ that oughts are doing anything." The realist is not substantiating normativity, or even a fictionalist utility of normativity (and of course they couldn't promote the latter). What does an antirealist need to do to get an explanation beyond simply, "it seems like moral normativity is non-naturalistically real"? Antirealism is exhaustively explanatory and elegant. It also seems more accurate. It makes me question myself constantly to see that realism is the majority view among so many well-respected thinkers in philosophy. I agree entirely with the notion that realist terminology is simply rhetorical persuasion speech acts based in wishful confidence.

If I remember right this dude is creepy.

agree its bad news. i doubt aliens want to hang out w us having observed us. aaand what do they make of what they observe. here's the likely situation, some humans have had contact w aliens in an official capacity and were admonished to never confirm their existence to society or humanity will face mortal consequences. what if those who are denying their existence and running interference against disclosure are actually saving humanity from destruction?

I find him an annoying interviewer

I recently asked ChatGPT to create the rules to the game of life. The parameters I gave it were that the aim of the game is to evolve, the rules can be made up as you go along and the game board is infinite in all dimensions. The resulting conversation was quite profound! ua-cam.com/video/60IPkzydX2M/v-deo.htmlsi=vq-G3WjxbHRxopuF

Every complex problem has a complex and imperfect solution. There will always be unsatisfied people on both sides, leading to a continuation of the debate and perhaps creating a new conflict. We're screwed...

This one's incredibly good of Sam.

“When we want to believe something, we ask ourselves, "Can I believe it?" Then, we search for supporting evidence, and if we find even a single piece of pseudo-evidence, we can stop thinking. We now have permission to believe. We have justification, in case anyone asks. In contrast, when we don't want to believe something, we ask ourselves, "Must I believe it?" Then we search for contrary evidence, and if we find a single reason to doubt the claim, we can dismiss it.” ― Jonathan Haidt, The Righteous Mind: Why Good People Are Divided by Politics and Religion

George W Bush Dallas 2016 Too often, we judge other groups by their worst examples, while judging ourselves by our best intentions. And this has strained our bonds of understanding and common purpose. But Americans, I think, have a great advantage. To renew our unity, we only need to remember our values. We have never been held together by blood or background. We are bound by things of the spirit, by shared commitments to common ideals.

You are nuts.

I just don’t understand how this two utterly incompatible expression “quantum” and “mechanics” could ever meet in a single expression. This expression, in itself, has a dual nature:)

China is done bro

The collapse of the wave function is very likely to be a nonlinear process, for which computer simulation is needed. Any simulation needs to make use of a random number generator. I believe I am stating the obvious. I will propose in outline how to go about it. This is likely to be a long posting, I am afraid, but I am going to offer a tentative solution to the measurement problem. Our first difficulty is that the Schrödinger equation, or any equation like it, is extremely accurate at the ensemble level and we can take it for granted that the modification of it is forbidden. There is nothing resembling the viscosity term to be found in the Navier-Stokes equation. And yet we need to inject some randomness. There are two ways to do it. *The first way* is to hypothesise that some nonlocal degree of freedom is involved, so even if we know nothing about Bell's Theorem we could have guessed it anyway. Just playing around with the Minkowski formalism, we notice that there is more than one way to travel faster than light. I suggest that the Schrödinger equation describes an oscillation in one of the ways which is capable of destructive interference with itself. We can have an orthogonal tachyonic Wiener process in the other way, which I will just call tachyonic Brownian motion (TBM). This comes into action during the nonlinear interaction between the wave function and the electromagnetic field, and can then lead to an outcome which does not have an issue with Schrödinger's cat. No aetiology is proposed for this TBM and I am guessing that it is quantified by having the Planck time as its characteristic time. What else? Nitrogen tri-iodide has the unique property that it is so unstable that it can be detonated by an alpha particle from a substance like polonium-210. Nitrogen trifluoride is stable by contrast. A computer simulation of tri-iodide under bombardment needs to have an outcome which is qualitatively different from the trifluoride. In any well-written simulation the trifluoride behaviour will be isentropic, but with the tri-iodide there will be a destruction of unitarity and a substantial rise in specific entropy. It is suggested that the missing ingredient in the simulation is TBM, which being normally orthogonal is dormant in the trifluoride, but is sufficient to detonate the tri-iodide once an electromagnetic field is also present. This is a second order nonlinear effect and is like a random walk along the edge of a cliff. In other cases all this effect needs to do is to disrupt the Poincaré cycle or to initiate the Kelvin-Helmholtz or similar instability. Two molecules of nitrogen tri-iodide are in fact a detector in the classical sense, and constitute the smallest detector that I can think of. What is called the Heisenberg cut comes between one and two molecules of tri-iodide. Maybe in the future somebody will think of a smaller detector, but it won't really affect the argument to be given here. The computer simulation of two molecules of tri-iodide will need to run in at least twenty four dimensions of configuration space, just counting atoms. This is impossible in practice, and gives us a hint of what we are up against. All detectors are just too complicated to model by the formal method using TBM. We really do need a detector to get the collapse of the wave function in our simulation, but we must adopt other ideas. *The second way* to reconcile the immutability of the Schrödinger equation to the need to use a random number generator involves a bit of handwaving. We just throw away the Schrödinger equation and replace it by a classical system with some ordinary Brownian motion for any object heavier than the Planck mass. The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle is replaced by the Fürth Uncertainty Principle on the same scale, so hardly anyone will notice. Yes, it is indeed cheating, but we have TBM as an aetiology and no known practical alternative. Classical BM will be much more disruptive than TBM and of course we are reinventing decoherence. We shouldn't have much trouble collapsing wave functions using it in our simulations. The usual objection to decoherence is the lack of any means of destroying unitarity in any closed system, which has been answered by proposing TBM as the aetiology. If we have an electron in a potential well, then the electron is modelled by the Dirac equation plus TBM. The electromagnetic field is modelled by correlated TBM so the wave function and the electromagnetic field working together can act like a nonlocal Vernam cipher. The potential well is considered to be a dimple in a heavy object so it is modelled with a bit of classical BM. I have already written a little computer simulation of the Dirac wave packet, and I am guessing that the propensity of the monochromatic wave packet to be a tachyon is also going to be significant. The Courant-Friedrichs-Levy condition could be difficult to deal with in the simulation of nonlocal behaviour, that behaviour being of more significance than just a moiré pattern. Output from any program will be to a cinematic loop display. Buttons will be provided to replay the loop, to do a time reversal, and to do a Lorentz boost. A side effect of pressing any button will be to reseed the random number generator in use, probably the Mersenne twister, by reference to the time of pressing the button. This is the "Protean system" and it ensures that we can simulate nonlocal phenomena without worrying about causality. A Lorentz transformation might give the appearance of being able to swap nonlocal cause and effect, but only on a new random event. I intend to put a series of computer simulations in the public domain which anyone will be able to modify. If they wish, they can rip out TBM and install some other way of doing things. What has been described here is the projected solution to the measurement problem as we start our programming. We will just have to see how we get on. In summary, adding a random number generator to any computer simulation of quantum mechanics is likely to require two different methods in practice. One is pitched at nonlocal work, the other at the collapse of the wave function. The single use of a RNG is conceivable in principle, but we lack the computer power to pursue it. I do not have any new equation to propose, and there isn't one.

Thank you dr.Crews🎉

There’s an assumption Trump will give up the presidency in 4 years

My favorite part of that conversation. Great to have clip. Thank you.

America and the world was much better off with Mr Trump Joey's 🦄 sound like a Biden bite

No such thing as democracy in the West we live in a Kakistocracy ruled by Bankers the politicians are their puppets and the people have been enslaved. They present you with a choice however,, the choice is an illusion to trick you into legal consent to be governed.

🤷 you could just study biology, ecology, ecological energetics, astronomy and chemistry and get more to the point of the objective reality. Good talk, I'm currently reading his book. I'm certainly more towards material philosophy and objective hard science, I'm usually not interested in the topic of consciousness but I am interested in the permanent transitory nature of existence, so how the elements that compose beings of the biosphere were once in other animals, the hydrosphere, the atmosphere, geosphere, etc. how all those elements of earth originated in stars. How animal bodies always have cell death and rejuvination through the heterotrophic process, and this is related to isotopic turnover. And so on.

There doesn't necessarily need to be steps. It can be serendipitously - especially while under LSD.

Experiment proves information can propagate instantaneously across space --------------------- We present an experiment that proves conclusively that information can be propagated nearly instantaneously across space, in the nearfield of an electromagnetic pulse. The experiment consists of a ~30kV high voltage spark generator creating an electromagnetic pulse that propagated 1.5m to a detector. The leading edge of the transmitted pulse and the leading edge of the detected pulse were then compared using an oscilloscope and no time delay within the capability of the scope was observed, where 5ns is predicted if it had propagated at the light speed. The maximum uncertainty in the measurement was 1ns due to noise in the electronics. Since a pulse is digital information. This experiment proves information can be transmitted across space nearly instantaneously. The results is perfectly predicted by Maxwell equations, which yield a wave equation set equal to a source term. Analysis of this equation shows that the phase speed, group speed, and information speed are instantaneous in the nearfield and reduce to the speed of light in the farfield. Below is a link to see a preprint of the paper. We are currently looking for a journal for peer review and publication. The impact of this discovery has implications in both engineering and the foundations of modern physics. The result is completely incompatible with Relativity. Instantaneous signals invalidate Relativity of Simultaneity in all inertial frames and can be used to synchronize all their clocks. In addition, a derivation of Relativity using instantaneous electromagnetic fields (light) yields Galilean Relativity, where time is the same in all inertial frames of reference, and there is no speed limit for mass, fields, and, even light. This can be easily be seen by inserting c=infinity into the Lorentz Transform, yielding the Galilean Transform. This means that if a moving object is observed with farfield speed c light, then Relativistic effects will be observed. But the effects are not real and can be proved by simply changing the frequency of the light, such that instantaneous nearfield light is used, causing the Relativistic effects to disappear. This then proves that the effects of Relativity are just an optical illusion. Since General Relativity is based on Special Relativity, then it has the same problem. A better theory of Gravity is Gravitoelectromagnetism which assumes gravity can be mathematically described by 4 Maxwell equations, similar to to those of electromagnetic theory. It is well known that General Relativity reduces to Gravitoelectromagnetism for weak fields, which is all that we observe. Using this theory, analysis of an oscillating mass yields a wave equation set equal to a source term. Analysis of this equation shows that the phase speed, group speed, and information speed are instantaneous in the nearfield and reduce to the speed of light in the farfield. This theory then accounts for all the observed gravitational effects including instantaneous nearfield and the speed of light farfield. The main difference is that this theory is a field theory, and not a geometrical theory like General Relativity. Because it is a field theory, Gravity can be then be quantized as the Graviton. Lastly it should be mentioned that this research shows that the Pilot Wave interpretation of Quantum Mechanics can no longer be criticized for requiring instantaneous interaction of the pilot wave, thereby violating Relativity. Consequently the Pilot wave interpretation should become the preferred interpretation of Quantum Mechanics due to its deterministic simplicity.

This is one great episode! Thanks a lot! The questions were very relevant and down-to-earth, and of course Bhikkhu Bodhi is a great teacher

Paul lost me when he equated Bushnell with a suicide bomber.

“Many of us like to ask ourselves, ‘What would I do if I was alive during slavery? Or the Jim Crow South? Or apartheid? What would I do if my country was committing genocide?’ The answer is, you’re doing it. Right now.” - Aaron Bushnell Aaron Bushnell knew about the boots on the ground, and our direct role in the genocide. Funding and directly taking part.

Like the war in Gaza, the answer seems just out of reach for us humans. I have to wonder if A.I could play a role in a much needed peace process

I don't think Aaron Bushnell thought his sacrifice was going to speed up the ceasefire. He said "this is what our ruling class has decided will be normal." He wanted to inspire other people to be radical in pursuit of ceasefire because the "ruling class" won't listen to standard protest. And I think he did achieve that, at least amongst certain groups. Aaron had friends, he was smart, he had high intelligence clearance, he was an engineer. His life seems on the outside to be good. He had people he loved who loved him. I think, again, with good reason, he believes significant change won't be made, i.e. the will of the poor masses which is contrary to the desires of the government and ruling class won't be honored, except by some pretty out of the ordinary means, and he chose to lead by example in his way.

🤔Our "Consciousness" really only means awareness or consciousness of the overview summary "printout" or "thought-out" of all of our multi-systems plus the processed senses inputs shown to us.. Both sent to us, with a collection of programmed available choices for our "self-overseeing" driver to pick from.. 🤔When you really take notice, it becomes clear that our "consciousness" or self-awareness is just the physical process of having senses , a physical brain/ computer to process their inputs, & the thoughts, choices etc that those inputs give us to see & choose from.. We are a multi-system, multi-inputs animal with a "self-overseeing" driver-like awareness.. It's just what evolution, through trial & error, happened to settle on.. Cos it works.. 🤔Once you take the time to actually see it, I really don't get how anyone ( who can face the honesty of reality without hiding from it ) doesn't see & feel how our bodies senses inputs connected to our proprioception make us feel we are "inside" our body, behind the eyes, our ears etc.. Seriously, how else, naturally, would a multi-input, multi-systems body "oversee" itself, but by putting us in the seat behind that control centre.. And we don't control our bodies myriad subconscious systems, because other parts do that "for us" & it wouldn't help/ aid us to do that too.. So we are given the inputs & the brains collected summaries of choices.. Then , as the driver, we choose the actions out of those few choices.. And only EVER out of those body/ brains summary of choices.. 🤔☮️🌏
