It did, extended memory came about the same time we needed to show down the system

If the photons were travelling faster than the local speed of light, why would light be emitted? The Cherenkov radiation takes away the excess energy as the light is immediately slowed as it moves from whatever radioactive metal to water
Gravity waves are indeed different. I don’t know the maths of relativity, but I bet those equations also require specific wave speeds. They don’t care about matter aside from it’s gravity which can bend space-time and change the wave path
I think we’re pushing this beyond both our understanding
Measuring causality/c despite those being given by our maths refines our values for the various constants
I’m sorting by 2 weeks since I have exhausted my shorter feeds. I cannot read some things without commenting so I’ll occasionally ping older threads
It’s a style, not a genre, it’s also more than one style. Anime comes in every genre. There are many diverse anime films and series.
Of course some are made for children and others for adults. If all you have seen is children’s series you probably haven’t got any idea what anime has.
I give my players pretty wide latitude, after a few sessions they generally agree with me if their character isn’t working well. Too weak can be treated with better weapons; too powerful get bored and go home. One of the too powerful synergised two powers to become practically invulnerable
You wouldn’t be choosing between 20k it’s in four sets of 9, 32, 9, and 9 so each would have four descriptors that would make up their mating configuration
They’re taking it as the animal that will push your stuff off the table to address the fact that you looked at it wrong yesterday
And the fun thing is everyone sees this and sees “cholesterol” , but it’s caused by other things, especially the vet high intake of sugar in the western diet. Free fatty acids are the better predictor of heart disease risk
I’m not going to trust the rules given to me by a guard who might be the one who lies
It also implies a person observing, and physics was happening for billions of years before there was anything remotely fitting the description “observer”
Observation isn’t necessary. You can add a photon detector to a double slit experiment and never observe the output. A quantum state will decohere if a particle emits a photon (which it will do as it’s over zero Kelvins) and that photon hits anything
In what way is “observation” the best word for a deep infra red photon hitting air or metal that no one sees?
It doesn’t count if what they remember is that 6 business days ago you agreed to 5 business days
Though I usually succeed despite procrastination, I’m pretty sure in most cases things would have gone better with alacrity.
5 days seems pretty reasonable to design and build most stuff. It’s function and system/integrated test that takes time not to say there’s not random bits of work that take months before anything testable can be produced.
*My experience is in giant systems processing mainframe class data. The programmers in my team use COBOL
1·2 days agoIn money you can work in cents and round fractions to whole cents in someone’s favour depending on policy for example my home accounting program rounds divided amounts up in transfers to the various accounts. It’s pretty good right now with a can’t being such an insignificant value.
If you consider light in motion as a wave (as it is in EM models and I think also in current mainstream physics) then you can’t expect it to work like matter. The speed of light is the speed at which EM waves propagate. Causality is the same because many interactions are mediated by exchange of photons via EM waves.
The speed of light in aluminium is ~0.95c, the EM waves in an aluminium antenna aren’t going to interact outside the aluminium faster than 0.95c. I would bet the effective speed of causality would never be greater than the speed of light in whatever medium the light is in
In radio electronics we abbreviate c to 300 000km/s (when working in kHz, different multipliers in other bands for easy maths). The number as it is is round enough when rounded to the whole hundred million for practical purposes with commodity hardware
We could redefine the metre to be 1.00069229…x it’s current size (increase it by 0.69229…mm) to make the speed of light exactly 300 000 000ms-1. This would also change area and volume, and any other units that are derived from length
I mean the word’s common meaning. I understand the physics use of the word is not the same as the common word, that’s my point. The use of the word has caused enormous confusion with even some physicists claiming that human observers matter (presumably to reinforce religious beliefs)
