I had a radical thought while doing some integration. To me it would seem there are decimals of decimals. For example, look at the digit (.91) In theory there should be numbers in between the 9 and the 1.
Decimals of decimals if you will. Does anybody know what this is called? I could be just blabbering but someone amuse me please.

What is your opinion of 'immortality'?
Do you think it will be possible in the future to make specifically a human immortal?
Do you think it's possible that any organism in the future could be made immortal?

Is basically the complete simulation of the universe down to subatomic particles. Right now, individual proton masses can be determined with an error margin of only 1%.

In a 1-200 years, this area of simulation, will likely be the size of a room. Imagine having a complete physical simulation of the universe, the computing power required would likely be that of 10 billion human brains (computer processing power will be a million human brains by 2050).

But it is very much doable. These simulations are real, with atoms and all, controlled and possible to fast forwarded and rewinded.

While reading about Max Planck discovery of the quantum nature of light and the limitation of classical physics, I stumbled upon this site and this sentence which confused me greatly.

http://physics.weber.edu/carroll/honors/failures.htm

>Classical physics said that each frequency of vibration should have the same energy.

This isn't the case, right? Didn't Rayleigh-Janes, using classical EM, predicted that energy increases as frequency increases?

How to find the complex eigenvectors of the rotation matrix

$\begin{bmatrix}
cos \theta &\sin \theta & 0\\
- \sin \theta & cos \theta & 0\\
0&0&1
\end{bmatrix}

I already have the eigenvalues

1, $cos \theta + i \sin \theta$, $cos \theta - i \sin \theta$

and I found in a book that the eigenvectors for each eigenvalue are

$v_1 = \begin{bmatrix} 0 \\0 \\1 \end{bmatrix}$, $v_2 = \begin{bmatrix} \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \\\frac{i}{\sqrt{2}} \\0 \end{bmatrix}$, $v_3 = \begin{bmatrix} \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \\\frac{-i}{\sqrt{2}} \\0 \end{bmatrix}$, respectively.

But I can't get to those results, because I don't understand very well trigonometric functions and their properties, identities and so.

Could someone please guide me on how to get to the corresponding eigenvectors? What's the procedure? Or could someone at least give me a clue on this, or recomend me some good book or web page?


Thanks in advance, and sorry if I failed using LaTeX code in this web.

So I've quit smoking for almost 3 years and life has sucked. I need a new fix.

Are there any safer alternatives to smoking but still give you a boost? I don't want to smoke cigarettes because they are unhealthy, and I don't want to vape because it's gay.

Is there something I can do a few times a day? Not chewing gum or some stupid crap like that.

Thanks.

why is it that you can take 10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10 points from the set [0, 1]x[0, 1] and its area would still be 1, but you can only take a finite amount of anything we know (atoms, quarks) from something before you end up with nothing? how bad of a model of reality euclidean spaces are?
