Is this the epik continuation of "I just realized John Titor actually exists"?

LHC and John Titor are actual things too. As are IBM5100s. And Kerr black holes as a method for time travel.
Attractor field/world lines are 5pb. chuunibyou, however. As is compressing data size with gravity and transmitting a human's memories with a cell phone.

To answer>>120666438 questions

>Can anything actually be considered still?
You need to decide in relation to what, but consider that the whole universe is expanding and the expansion rate is accelerating.

>Is time slower outside of the galaxy?
It's actually faster. When you are subjected to a strong gravity field time runs slower the closer you are to it. Perhaps you already know that GPS satellites roaming around the Earth need their clocks to be adjusted due to relativity effects. But the discrepancy is mainly caused by their relative higher distance from Earth's gravity field than by their speed.

>faster than light
Ha ha, nice joke. If a local speed faster than light was possible the whole theory of relativity would fall apart.

There are ways to get around that, for example you can shrink space instead or you can take a shortcut in the hyperspace.

Anyway if you can go as fast as the speed of light (which is virtually impossible, because anything that has mass would need infinite energy to achieve that) time would completely freeze... for you. In the universe outside an infinite amount of time would pass in an instant.

>Or is there a value at which movement through time would theoretically become negative?
Since the higher possible speed is the speed of light and time for you would become 0 only at that speed, it can never become negative. In fact it can never become 0 in practical terms, you can only try to get close to it.

The only way to defy that limit is through space curvature. Which is why there is a theoretical model that would make traveling back in time possible through the use of two black holes.

Faster than light speeds are possible, it just requires negative mass.
The question is if negative mass is possible. It would also mean that things with negative mass cannot move at light speed or slower.

>>120668177

How is it that light can be affected by gravity if it has no mass?

>>120668652
>Why? Something with .0000000001 mass can move at all speeds but 0 can only move at the speed of light?

No, with ".0000000001 mass" you can move at all speeds below lightspeed. Something with mass cannot reach lightspeed.
Interaction with the higgs field to result in mass imposes a limit as it requires energy to induce motion. Without mass, there is no requirement for energy to induce motion, causing it to move at maximum possible speed in all frames of reference (which is lightspeed).

>Doesn't passing through a glass slow light down?

No. It just slams into a glass particle and is re-emitted, and this re-emission process takes time based on the property of the particle. It is still moving at lightspeed, it just takes time to be absorbed into a particle and emitted from it.

You can restate your question as "Why is light able to move at the speed at which light moves?"

Well, light has no mass and so there's no frame of reference in which it ISN'T moving.
If it's always moving, then how fast?
At the speed at which light moves, of course.

What your question should be is "Why can't other things move as fast as light?"
Well, because invariant masses hate accelerating.

Yeah I knew about that one. Limits of non convergent series yield results that don't seem to make sense.

In a way it shares a similarity to the quantum interpretation of light. Just as the limit of 1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,etc. ends up being neither 1 nor 0, instead a half - light is neither a particle nor a wave, but both.

At least as far as we can classically interpret it.

The "uncertainty principle" is pretty damn mind blowing. Also how there is no force pulling you towards the Earth.

What happens is that the Earth bends the space around it, and the bending of the space is actually what attracts you towards Earth.

This reminds me of when people (on /b/, I think) were arguing that .999999... is equal to 1.
I think the argument was:

0.99999999... / 9 = .111111111...
.11111111... * 10 = 1.11111111111...
1.1111111... - 0.111111111... = 1

>>120669824

>>120669824
The demonstration I prefer is simply this:

1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 = 1

1/3 = 0.3333...

0.3333... + 0.3333... +0.3333... = 0.9999...

1 = 0.9999...

The many world interpretation is a theory, and I mean not a theory with shittons of supporting evidences like the theory of relativity, it's really "just" a theory.

The proof is that we also have the Copenhagen interpretation, and the two are mutually exclusive.

There's crazier stuff than that though...

>>120668177
Philosophically, physics isn't capable of answering the question "why?"--it's only a tool for creating models about the physical world.

Hence one may ask, "in the model of X, why do we predict that only light can move at the speed of light?", where X is, say, "special relativity", or "quantum field theory", or whatever, but asking "why" we observe the physical world to be some way is not a question that we can approach.

>>120669993
To answer the question of whether physics is "real", you have to appeal to the philosophy of logical positivism. Suppose that the universe works in some "actual fashion" which we call X, and physics produces a model Y; X produces the actual observations which we see in life, but the model we have created using physics, Y, can be used to predict the same observations. Experimentally, we cannot distinguish between the models X and Y; hence philosophically, Wittgenstein (or perhaps Carnap?) would argue that the question, "is X different from Y?", is not meaningful.

This always confused me back in school. I was never good at Maths, because:

A. I just generally have problems with basic calculation. I tend to do sums alot slower than others, especially when I'm under pressure... which meant I could sometimes spend a full minute just working out the most basic-ass multiplication, while in the tense, silent exam hall.

B. In order to memorize anything, it needs to make perfect, relatable sense to me. Under common logic, something just short of 1 isn't equal to 1; it's, of course, just short of it. So because formulas like the one just posted, and many more complicated ones than that, didn't fall under my idea of common logic, I could never remember them.

Well the point is that 0.9999... only gives the impression to be shorter than 1, but it's not. They are really just different ways to write the same number. the same way 1/3 and 0.3333... are exactly the same thing.

>>120670410
>How does 1+2+3+4....to infinity = -1/12?

It doesn't. The series does not converge and has no finite sum.
It's only in Ramanujan summation that the infinite series is assigned the value -1/12. There is no actual value because it does not converge. It's an assigned value.

>>120669086
light is absorbed and retransmitted by transparent substances, retard

>>120670410
The short explanation is that we conventionally don't assign a value to a divergent sum (such as the summation from 1 to infinity) because it isn't intuitively reasonable to do so, but Ramanujan summation assigns the value of -1/12 to said sum, and different forms of assigning values to divergent sums are useful in different situations (e.g. Borel summation, Cesaro summation, etc.).

>>120670410

>>120670312
>Under common logic, something just short of 1 isn't equal to 1; it's, of course, just short of it.

Here's how to comprehend the whole 0.9999...=1 thing.

Imagine a bowl of rice. You're told to eat 9/10 of it. You're left with a tablespoon or so.
You're told to eat 9/10 of that. You have a few grains left.
You're told to eat 9/10 of that. You have, say, a third of a grain of rice left.
You're told to eat 9/10 of that. You're told to eat 9/10 of that. You're told to eat 9/10 of that. You're told to eat 9/10 of that. Eventually you have to pull out some precision equipment just to keep leaving behind increasingly minuscule bits of rice.
Finally (because you somehow have equipment at hand that lets you do so, you separate out the last molecule of what was once a grain of rice. You accidentally drop it before you can cut it once more and are left wondering what to do, at which point you turn over to a friend who also had a bowl of rice. He exclaims that he really enjoyed eating that whole bowl of rice. You turn and look at his bowl only to see that there are a few grains of rice left. He turns and looks at your bowl and agrees that you definitely polished off that entire bowl of rice. No doubt about that.

Point is that in a world where everything is infinitesimally divisible, near enough is always good enough.

That doesn't even require calculus.

Okay, suppose you have an infinitely large hotel, and an infinite number of guests check in one Tuesday night. Later that evening, another infinitely large tour bus pulls up out front. (Don't ask me how; you have an infinitely large parking lot, bitch.) Sure, you have an infinitely large hotel, but how are you going to give them all rooms?

Simple. Tell each guest to move down the hall until they reach an unoccupied even numbered room, then have all the new guests move into the odd numbered rooms. Only thing is, it's trivial to understand that you have more guests than you did before; in fact, you have a lot more of them. But you already had an infinite number of guests!

The set of all odd numbers and the set of all whole numbers are both infinite, but according to some branches of mathematics, one is a larger shade of infinite than the other.

For practical purposes, its the same, but as far as actual mathematics, anything that is not equal to 1 will not be equal to 1 regardless of how closely it reaches 1.

This is more important as far as higher-level mathematics goes, since a calculation that amounts to 0.99 repeating and a calculation that amounts to 1 is different and could, in theory, fuck up other calculations.

The process you're describing is. Unless you're just describing it really shittily, which is my main point.

I'm hearing some insane fucking claims and no one posts any source. This is why moot left

0.9999....=1
Yeah that's all.
Recurring infinitely = no difference
Recurring finitely = difference

I'm saying that you aren't in the .9999... = 1 situation.

>I'm not the rice/miles/house guy.
Well then stop pretending to be him.
I'm quite aware that .9 repeating = 1.

This is why engineers shouldn't be allowed to do math.

>>120672351
I'm the anon who started using all the bizarre analogies.
The point was to get you to understand that for every calculation there is a point at which the error rounds to 0 if the recurring equivalent number goes on for long enough, and it always will.

The actual reason for this is that the way people think about place value numbers is wrong. It only works with a finite number of placevalues. With a finite number of placevalues, you have to remember that the place value system is just a representation of a number, and that "infinitely close to X" actually does mean "X" when you're not playing with limits.

no, it doesn't. why is /a/ so scientifically illiterate? that claim derives from the idea of large extra dimensions, an idea from the 90's when they were trying to get around the constraint in string theory of the planck energy being large (compared to the strings themselves). this led to a shit ton of neat mathematical tools being developed, but the idea of large extra dimensions in reality was always patently false, and if you tried applying this idea to reality it would just be wrong, since there are very good reasons to believe the planck energy is big (compared to the strings).

the phenomenological people (experimentally minded people, as opposed to theorists) didn't realize this and in a fit of delusion proposed a model in which they actually took the idea of large extra dimensions mapping to reality as a possibility, and then arkani-hamed, dimopolous, and dvali plus a bunch of other delusional experimentalists published a paper in which a model was proposed which would admit the creation of micro black holes at the LHC's energy levels, and then popsci media took it and ran with it.

in short, it was never a possibility; just experimentalist autism and sensationalist click-bait headlines written by people who have never taken even an introductory physics class.

I'll give you the STE part, though.

The INFINITE repeating of 9 fills the gap between 0.9 repeating and 1.
It may seem strange. But that's just how people define infinite.

>>120672459
Implying engineers care about math as a science. We use math to solve problems, in some cases we round 0.99 to 1. It all depends on the order of magnitude that interest us in the given situation.
