How do you reconcile it with exponential technological development?

From zero to neolithic took billions of years. From tens of thousands and nomadic living to modern society in about 40.000. Then from the ground to Mars in 100.

Meanwhile stellar cycles narrow down by the billion years. It is very likely that we will go outside our star system within the next millennium, probably sooner than later. And by that time the galaxy as a whole should have had a taste of our radiowaves.

There are some developments we can reasonably expect for basic physical reasons, and there are some known challenges as we develop but there might be some high risk barriers dead ahead.

I.e. given the sample pool life should develop elsewhere, and the question isn't just where but at what point in the timeline.

Not only are there some caveats to that, FTL isn't necessary either if you establish an orbital colony.
Given increasingly sophisticated technology, growing industrial capacity and for all intents an infinite amount of time, this is bound to happen. The time required shrinks rapidly as this goes on and on the scale of astrophysics it is at this stage of development completely negligible.

Berry's Paradox :

The number of syllables in the English names of finite integers tend to increase as the integers grow larger, and must gradually increase indefinitely, since only a finite number of names can be made with a given finite number of syllables. Hence the names of some integers must consist of at least nineteen syllables, and among them there must be a least. Hence "the least integer not nameable in fewer than nineteen syllables" must denote a definite integer; in fact, it denotes 111,777. But "the least integer not nameable in fewer than nineteen syllables" is itself a name consisting of eighteen syllables; hence the least integer not nameable in fewer than nineteen syllables can be named in eighteen syllables.

>Radio signals won't stay as radio signals
Also I get they won't linger no, but as soon as they start broadcasting, they're going to have a sphere expanding at the speed of light within which the area is essentially permanently soaked in their broadcasts. Until their extinction. If they get to this stage, extinction should be essentially impossible given they could even escape the death of their star by migrating to another. They'd spend thousands of years in transit, but they'd still be alive and broadcasting.

If one of them developed like this before, and they had billions of years to grow, where are they?

That's the point. That could be some of those high risk barriers posed in Fermi's paradox.

Islam immigrants that support an ideology that directly contradicts the very values that the countries they immigrate to are founded upon. Without those values the countries would not be what they are and would surely not be willing to help poor immigrants, opposing those values means they directly disagree with the reasons they have anywhere to go.

Let it sink in, they don't agree with the ideas that are the very reasons they are given a new chance at life.

is a 3d/timespace term, a comprehension of the 3rd dimension linear time being. the universe is only perceived with possibilities and impossibilities by that kind of being, the fact is there is more than impossibilities and possibilities, more than probabilities and improbabilities - there is more than nothing, more than everything and none as well.

No. At least not the way i meant to use the word. There are things that simply cant happen in any reality/universe that is even remotely close to ours(shares our laws of nature) so there is no way that a comparable universe (a paralleluniverse) exists without being part of our multiverse. I mean sure somewhere sometime somehow there might be a universe that is not connected to ours... nobody can tell if other bangs happened or anything, but there is no way to proof or disproof this, not even in theory since we are not affected by it. There is definitly not a universe in our multiverse that isnt part of our multiverse since this is impossible by the laws of our multiverse.

it's not specifically human though because mass alters the flow of (our measured) time. mass has been here since the beginning, and despite humans only measuring time since their beginning, time has always been influenced by mass - you can tell by chemical reactions impacted by what kind of size of mass they exist on. time is also not specific to humans, living things can perceive time, and differently as well, i like the running theory that the smaller a living entity's brain/mass the slower time is perceived.

but time is always woven into space at least when it comes to the interaction of matter causing a binary effect...all of which is maintained on a 3 dimensional timespace linear comprehension, which is only one of multiple dimensions.
>>
>>734417704
this is why we have stars and empty space, because of timespace and the impact of gravity caused by mass...observed by humans but existed for billions of years before humans...thanks to the speed of light we can look back in time billions of years into space and measure things before humans existed - now what you'll want to ask yourself is did those realities change because we humans measured them.
>>
>>734417391
No one recorded time before man, dinosaurs didnt have watches.
>>
>>734417391
What?
Time has always existed since the universe existed. Humanity hasn't always existed, there has been sequences of events that had to occur before life was on earth (a past) and they clearly aren't happening now (like the formation of earth). But how we measure time, that is only relevant to our planet solar cycles...
>>
>>734417391
Tell him there was, is and will never be time. Time in the way we know it only exists in human heads. As soon as you leave the live of a human on earth time will behave differently depending on yoir speed and position. So very smart scientists came to the conclusion that time and space are in fact one thing and only our human perception lets us think these are two different things. Then you show him one of these pics with another hidden pic in it cause he didnt understand a word and tell him things are not always the way they appear to be at first.
Seriously nobody expects a 6year old to understand this. He needs to learn foundations first. You cant explain advanced concepts like this to ppl who dont know how to multiply something yet. So the only honest answer is " you might understand when you are older" although most adult ppl still have no fucking clue about basic things like that.

>>734417704
because observing light itself actually alters its properties changing it from a particle to a wave, and since everything we perceive is basically reflection of light, we can't even say the reality we know today is what it is - simply because we observed it - it has changed or has it not? how do you measure what you cannot observe and how can you observe what you cannot measure?
>>
>>734417939
so my paradox is this
light is a particle until perceived then becomes a wave
time is proportionately influenced by mass of matter
time is perceived by reflection of light, observed as a wave, but exists as a particle
observing nature alters time and reality

it's not stupid, it's the easiest to grasp, and the most natural for the brain to comprehend, but there are other concepts that fit the same pieces and apply the same rules resulting in a working reality as well that require just a little bit more thought and some of them fit even better than single timeline.

yeah, that would explain why gravity is actually not as strong of a force as it should be, i can't remember the math but i've seen it done and mass/gravity equates to like 20% of the force it should be - resulting in the possibility this isn't the first time this happened either, possibly the 5th. i too like this theory because it explains the dark matter expansion

Only one problem. We always assume that these "ark" ships containing entire civilizations would actually survive thousands of years of space travel. Considering the average car or even satellite can barely survive a few decades, it would seem conceivable that the vast majority of interplanetary space craft that are sub speed of light would wreck part way to the next star and the race would be dead on arrival.

Television really fucked peoples perception of time. The fact that our universe currently exists the way it does is because either you were already successful or not successful at whatever attempt you made to alter it. I.E. if you go back in time to kill hitler, you will fail because hitler survived, or you would have killed him right when he supposedly committed suicide anyway, thus still not altering the timeline. Tl;dr, even if time travel is eventually possible we won't be able to change anything because linear reality.

It's true that when you traveled back in time, you would need to travel in space as well, necessitating Very fast (probably faster than light) travel speeds to then reach the altered location of our planet in the vacuum we call space. And considering The incredible speed that the earth, sun, galaxy, and even space itself are moving, hitting the earth would be incredibly unlikely. However, even if we did reach a level of super intelligence where we could actually manage to get there, we still couldn't change anything.

A judge tells a condemned prisoner that he will be hanged at noon on one weekday in the following week but that the execution will be a surprise to the prisoner. He will not know the day of the hanging until the executioner knocks on his cell door at noon that day.

Having reflected on his sentence, the prisoner draws the conclusion that he will escape from the hanging. His reasoning is in several parts. He begins by concluding that the "surprise hanging" can't be on Friday, as if he hasn't been hanged by Thursday, there is only one day left - and so it won't be a surprise if he's hanged on Friday. Since the judge's sentence stipulated that the hanging would be a surprise to him, he concludes it cannot occur on Friday.

He then reasons that the surprise hanging cannot be on Thursday either, because Friday has already been eliminated and if he hasn't been hanged by Wednesday noon, the hanging must occur on Thursday, making a Thursday hanging not a surprise either. By similar reasoning he concludes that the hanging can also not occur on Wednesday, Tuesday or Monday. Joyfully he retires to his cell confident that the hanging will not occur at all.

The next week, the executioner knocks on the prisoner's door at noon on Wednesday — which, despite all the above, was an utter surprise to him. Everything the judge said came true.

Theres a paradox about a lawyer that takes on a student, teaching him law.
Once the student finished studying with the lawyer, the lawyer does the student a favour and says he must only pay him for his teachings after he has won his first case.
The student later decides that he no longer wants to become a lawyer, so he will never win a case, and never have to pay
The lawyer then sues him, telling the court that, if he wins the motion, the student must pay because he won the lawsuit, but if he loses, then the student will have won his first case, and no longer need to pay.

However, the student then argues to the court that if he loses, he wouldn't have to pay, as the lawyer said he shall only pay when he wins his first case, but if he wins the lawsuit, he will not get sued and therefore doesn't have to pay.

it could also just be unchangeable. Why try to argue an outcome reliant on things like human choice from the future intentionally allowing horrible travesties to occur? Occam's Razor. Unless you have specific evidence to indicate otherwise, assume the simplest outcome is correct. The simplest outcome that results in an imperfect world is that we are incapable of changing it retroactively. Meaning that even if time travel is possible, we probably can't manipulate time at any point on a human timeline.
