🧵 Why is it impossible for scientists to predict earthquakes
Anonymous at Fri, 17 Jan 2025 21:57:46 UTC No. 16554343
Scientists predicted a massive SoCal earthquake (98% probability according to their models) and they failed magnificently.
How come they're unable to accurately predict something as commonplace as an earthquake accurately?
They have massive amounts of data to work with, tons of instrumentation and readings to go off of and decades of well measured previous tectonic activity to study. Yet given all that plus enormous budgets to work with and they are still no better at predicting earthquakes than a tarot card reader.

Science Community Shocked by Reformulation of Calculus
The world of science is about to change. I’ve just published a new way of understanding trigonometry and calculus by connecting them to light clocks and Quantum Information Holography (QIH). This isn’t just about redefining math—it’s about exploring how these principles describe the very structure of our universe.
In this framework, the unit circle transforms into the Bloch sphere, where quantum state vectors (QSVs) spin like beams of a light clock. Trigonometric functions like sine and cosine take on new meaning, representing quantum velocity components that project light and encode the geometry of spacetime.
This work builds on centuries of mathematical progress, offering a fresh perspective that ties math directly to quantum mechanics and the holographic nature of reality. It’s exciting to think about the possibilities for understanding the universe in ways that are visual, practical, and deeply connected to the fundamental nature of light and information.
I also want to give a huge shoutout to Dana Kippel for sharing this on her TikTok channel. She has such a natural way of explaining these concepts and making them engaging. I honestly think she’s on track to becoming the next Joe Rogan or the next big TikTok celebrity. If you’re not already following her, check out her TikTok at tiktok.com/@danakippel, Instagram at instagram.com/dana.thealien, and her YouTube channel at youtube.com/@plasmaintelligence.
Dana and I are also teaming up to launch a podcast called Holographic Horizon! Follow us for thought-provoking discussions about the nature of reality, science, and groundbreaking concepts. You can follow me as well on TikTok at tiktok.com/@jason.padgett81.
🧵 Numbers
Anonymous at Fri, 17 Jan 2025 17:44:59 UTC No. 16553979
I'm not a mathematician so maybe this is a dumb question. Not even sure if this is considered more philosophical. What makes numbers a "real" metaphysical truth? And I mean just beyond the symbols we use to describe numbers, which I know are a construct of the human mind (the symbols themselves, I mean).
I can sort of wrap my head around the laws of logic, for example, but what exactly makes "2 + 2= 4"? I know that if I see 4 apples, there are "4 of that certain thing" but I'm having trouble defining what that 4 actually is and why it's considered "real" as opposed to just humans coming up with a universal measurement.

Are there any prime patterns that become more apparent in non-decimal number systems?
And no I don't think I'm super clever and somehow thought of something that no mathematician has considered before. It just occurred to me and I know someone has looked into it and I'm curious.

🧵 New Improved™ Starship™
Anonymous at Fri, 17 Jan 2025 13:27:46 UTC No. 16553671
Does this faggot even test anything?
>We already have New Improved™ Starship™ ready to launch!
It just exploded, it won't be improved with the new data, it will probably explode again.
It's improved based on what? Not on the new data for sure.
If you knew it can explode, wouldn't you fix it before launch?
There's no way they are actually stress testing the components if it keeps exploding like it's the first flight.
The thing must have serious quality issues that can't be fixed without making it too expensive or too heavy.

He talks to literally everyone, from mainstream physicists like Susskind, to nobodies with offbeat theories, and even woo woo people like Ruper Sheldrake. He gives them all unbiased consideration and isn't afraid to go into technical detail.
Theories of Everything is having big impact on the scientific community, exposing both academics and the public to ideas that would otherwise never get past the gatekeepers of academia.
What do you think of this podcast, /sci/?

Why is it that scientists always claim that critical thinking and the scientific method is always about scrutinizing every theory until it is physically proven to be correct and then go out of their ways to believe any type of fairy tale that involves space? Wouldn't there be a necessity for more than literally under 1% of the world's population to actually go to space in order for it to be considered real? What's the deal, here?
