Are black holes where the universe turns inside out as dimensional curvature approaches infinity so a zero is simultaneously reached and paradoxically sustained?
To put this in pretentious, philosophical terms, is a black hole an infinite void contained by nothing but itself?

i should ask diy for this but this is a hard problem.
i would like to farm salmon in hot humid weather. however salmon grows in cold water.
what would be the best cheapest way to cool down 20 square foot hole pool into say 10 degree celsius or however cold salmon griw under?

Can the mind be considered a type of manifold?
If not, and it is a physical substance distinct from but interconnected with the brain, then what is the shape of the mind, that’s not its underlying neurological architecture?
If it has no geometric dimensions, does it even exist as a physical object?
Would “mind” in that sense be an antiquated concept?
Would we be better off considering ourselves to be “mindless” brains?

How do you go from an egg laying animal to producing live young? That’s not gonna happen they’re just going to keep producing eggs because that’s how they reproduce! Did they go from laying eggs to 1 day a mammal was born from a non mammal? Because how else would that process look like? How do you go from a non mammal to a mammal? Because if you have a non mammal slowly evolving to a mammal it’s just gonna die. If it somehow slowly evolved to a mammal from a non-mammal then what percentage does it birth live young and what percentage does it lay eggs? And how would that percentage work? You need to demonstrate it’s possible for an egg layer to slowly evolve to birth live young because that doesn’t make sense at all. How would that slowly change over time? There’s never been a single observed case of a genetic mutation which has actually been beneficial.

Ok. Here me out.
It's possible to induce someone to breath in a chemical that crosses the blood brain barrier and cell phones and radio waves can be used to induce headaches.
Also Henry Fort and The Book of the Damned is the big red book that won't fit on a coffee table as referenced in the 1995 film Hackers.

Is washing your hands after going to the bathroom a scam? I never do it and I don't find myself getting sick more than anyone else. I get the principle in theory, obviously, but it doesn't seem to actually make a difference.

🧵 Instantaneous axis of rotation: wtf?
Anonymous at Sun, 27 Oct 2024 00:29:56 UTC No. 16451425
(no this isn't hw, I'm just studying physics on my own)
The goal is basically to find the instantaneous axis of rotation of the small discs that's on the big disc and the angular velocity around this axis.
Now I suspect it's either on the edge of the small disc that's closest to the central axis or even more trivially, it' just it's own fucking axis that moves around the central axis with w1.
But what's the exact theory behind finding it and calculating angular velocity around IAR?
I literally went through all the textbooks I could find AND ALL OF THEM LITERALLY ONLY SHOW THAT ROLLING CYLINDER PROBLEM BUT SAY NOTHING GENERAL ABOUT THE IAR FFS.
The only bit I know is that it's supposed to be in the point where the object is not moving atm.
Any sources or smth? Thanks.

I cannot be the only person in the world that has foreseen this right?
I am not that smart. Just a mediocre pleb. Why have I not hear a peep about this worrisome scenario from high academic circle of the brainiac scientists?

Based on this paper, QED is wrong: https://vixra.org/pdf/2002.0011v1.p
>Quantum electrodynamics (QED) is considered the most accurate theory in the history of science. However, this precision is based on a single experimental value: the
anomalous magnetic moment of the electron (g-factor). An examination of QED history
reveals that this value was obtained using illegitimate mathematical traps, manipulations and tricks. These traps included the fraud of Kroll & Karplus, who acknowledged
that they lied in their presentation of the most relevant calculation in QED history.
As we will demonstrate in this paper, the Kroll & Karplus scandal was not a unique
event. Instead, the scandal represented the fraudulent manner in which physics has been
conducted from the creation of QED through today.

everyone who procrastinates understands that it's completely irrational. so then why is procrastination such a universal struggle?
do other intelligent species procrastinate as well?
