Do a little dance, he said.

Get down tonight, he said.

What he didn't say, was an electron has both mass and spin yet has no definite location.

  • It would be a real bitch to try and coordinate a party with multiple time travelers with the forking system. Each one might end up as the only traveler in their new universe. Unless they carpooled, I guess.

  • My own words used against me?!? Yeah that tracks xD I see your point now, though. Perhaps I was the ridiculous we found along the way.

  • I have no idea what you're arguing against, or what point you think I've missed.

    Have you assumed that I have discounted other models because of the model I chose for my comment? Bah! You assume too much.

    I did not state that doing the experiment was a bad thing; my comment was in humor even!

  • I have thoughts.

    It was ridiculous that Hawking thought a time traveler would make it to his party for several reasons. There are a few models of time travel, and only one of them has an internal logic that allows for traveling without paradoxical consequences; multiversal divergence.

    Our version of the time traveler party was one of an infinite amount of time traveler parties that hawking hosted throughout the multiverse. A time traveler would be traveling to that time like picking a grain of sand on a beach, where each grain of sand is a near identical party to the last.

    As our version of the party diverges from the realities with time travelers who chose to travel to the hawking party, there would be a diminishing set of infinities containing time travelers that were attempting the journey.

    Thus while the chances of a time traveler going to the party are 100%, the party being our version of the party approach 0 infinitely fast.

  • I'm going to be honest, I don't think I've ever been confused when someone used the word "science" before, and it is usually pretty cut and dry what they mean when they use the word "science".

    "The sciences" - Various fields of study using the scientific method. "Doing science" - Using the scientific method to explore some hypothesis or harden a theory. "Scientific advancements" - The furthering of knowledge using the scientific method.

    I would think most people feel that "science" is not an abuse of language, but a very clear and useful term, both in and outside of academia. At least with "science" it all revolves around the study of nature, usually through the scientific method. "Electricity" seems more like a vehicle, with parts that have to come together just right or you end up describing an entirely different phenomenon.

    "Electricity" as you've defined it, is fucking wacko, and does not parallel "science" in anyway I currently see. I'm not saying that you're statement makes you wacko, but that the culmination of these esoteric concepts makes up what we think of as a broad categorization of "electricity" is wacko.

    Your explanation was really enlightening, actually, and while it took me a moment to acclimatize to the information, it was very helpful. Thank you.

  • I am with you when it comes to industrialized animal farming. The companies that run that show value profit over the treatment of the animals, and that really doesn't feel right to me. I don't support like the idea of industrialized agriculture either, though I do see its merits. The whole system for how a lot of people get their food is kinda messed up right now.

    I actually bought a chunk of land a year or so ago, and have been working on turning into a permaculture food-forest. Hopefully I'll be able to supply my community with an alternative here in a few years, and encourage my neighbors to do the same.

    I also very much agree with you that it is nearly impossible to change someone's opinion about something on the internet. Ya never know though, sometimes it just takes being exposed to an idea enough times in a positive light for someone to dig into it themselves.

  • I never understood "bloodmouth". Like, who is out here eating animals while they still have blood in them? The butchering process includes bleeding the animal out; there ain't no blood when it gets to the table.

    Also, I think its less about the name that is being used, and the fact that you're intent is shame someone using the name. Name calling is what children do, and acting like a child doesn't often earn respect. If the vegan movement wanted to ever get global traction, they'd have to actually respect the people they are trying to convert.

    Same problem with a lot of Christians trying to convert people. A lot of Christians just do not have respect for secular people, and try to shame them into converting. Makes a bad rap for Christians and Vegans both :/

  • I don't think intellectually challenged individuals deserve cruelty, nor do I believe anyone does. However, this is the first argument that popped into my head, and I want to genuinely discuss this. Again, I do NOT agree that the intellectually challenged are deserving of discrimination. This is for the purpose of discussion.

    If being intellectually challenged isn't worthy of discrimination, why feel insulted when called retarded?
