Time crystals are biological too, key to the origin and nature of life. Here’s our new paper ‘Microtubules are fractal time crystals-Implications for life and consciousness’ (full open access soon) ingentaconnect.com/contentone/imp… Original work by @anirbanbandyo pubs.aip.org/aip/jap/articl…

@JeremyVineOn5 I just tell them what they want to hear using their own terminology as a guide. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It doesn't matter if it isn't true like my CV...

Is language in job adverts sexist? Labour has told employers to avoid using masculine words - like "competitive" and "ambitious" - when looking to hire new staff. They say asking for "dominant" or "independent" workers is putting women off from applying. Do you agree?

@JeremyVineOn5 It's ironic that when I used to have a TV licence, I never watched BBC programmes. It's middle-class rubbish that bores the pants off me if I was wearing any...

Should we add the BBC licence fee to council tax? The licence fee could be replaced by a charge added to council tax, meaning more homes would pay. So should everyone contribute – whether they watch it or not?

@MelanieCmusic Makes me want to get back into the gym, I feel a bit lacking in the old muscle department. No, I'm not lacking in that muscle department...

Stop right now. My Spice Boys are back… and we’ve got a little surprise for you xx

Hey @bigthink It’s becoming obvious that life is 1) essentially a quantum phenomenon, and 2) that conscious feelings were present from the origin of life, and have driven its evolution. (Aren’t purposeful behavior and survival driven by feelings?) sciencedirect.com/science/chapte… 1) Life as quantum phenomenon?! While cells are 70% water the remaining material includes nonpolar oil-like regions of aromatic rings (organic chemistry) conducive to quantum optical effects, and where anesthetics bind by quantum Van der Waals forces to selectively block consciousness. Insude microtubules these regions pervade cells in a ‘quantum underground’. An amazing new paper from @anirbanbandyo (on a project he’s been working on for a decade or more) describes an organic gel polymer of helical oscillators (based on microtubules) which self-organizes into dodeconohedral qubits which self assemble into a quantum computer. A quantum condensate of polarons and polaritons occurs among the aromatic rings. and coherence persists in a kind of Bose-Einstein condensate for 4.6 milliseconds (50,000 times longer than previous record for biological quantum coherence). iopscience.iop.org/article/10.108… And it’s also looking like microtubules are fractal time crystals essential for life and consciousness. philpapers.org/rec/HAMMAF-7 Polyaromatic hydrocarbon and RNA time crystals in a primordial soup, thermal vent, or…? may have enabled primitive consciousness by Penrose OR. Organic ( e.g. dopamine-like) molecules rearranged to optimize pleasure, leading to the origin and development of life. Anirban’s quantum ‘brain jelly’ can in principle eventually outperform LLMs using very low energies (the brain runs on 20 watts) so it could just save the planet too.

@Andercot Fortunately I don't have to rely upon public perception of my own mental health when it's the Data-Engine-Server information system doing all of the talking and results are impossible to fake. There's been nothing like the DES Experiment whatsoever so it's a first in science.

The world does not make sense if you are "sane" - aligned with conventional interpretations. This is why the public is constantly surprised at events, caught off-handed. To predict the future accurately you need to appear insane to conventions of the present.

@MrJamesMay Naff cheeseburger and soggy chips? It's a bit of a mouthful just like the naff cheeseburger...

Imagine calling ‘Turkey and leek pie made with frozen Christmas leftovers’ in the garden.

Yes. Lots of evidence. Here’s one paper frontiersin.org/journals/integ…

@JeremyVineOn5 @Guto_Harri @theJeremyVine You'd think that the useless UK government would ban balaclavas but, of course, they're useless so what did I expect? More uselessness, that's what I'm expecting...

"We see people riding around on hyped up electric bikes where only their eyes are visible." "Their parents must know what they look like." @Guto_Harri suggests parents who let their kids go out with balaclavas bear responsibility for their crimes. @theJeremyVine | #JeremyVine

@montypython Interesting. Now for something completely different

Much ado about nothing in particular. #MontyPython

@JeremyVineOn5 You could wrap an elastic band around its beak, that'd work.

Should the owners of noisy pets be fined? A cockerel's owner has been threatened with an antisocial behaviour warning because of the bird's morning crowing. Owner Sue says it's out of proportion for the situation. Would a fine be a better deterrent to get a grip on noisy pets?

@Andercot All-time knowledge of all pathways, classical or quantum-mechanical, is insufficient to explain complex Type5V2 behaviour as God would still have to rely upon estimations about outcomes from a classical perspective. The only model that fits is block-TIQM.

@Andercot All that is left is to assess what type of landscape reality is. Having enforced future constraints on Type5V2 Data-Engine selection procedures which had null effect, it's evident that any amendment was part of the original mix-recipe. Block physics? facebook.com/proof.of.god.2…

From first principles it seems unlikely that a simulated being could really figure out the simulation they are in, since their complexity is bounded from above by their environment. Rather for a simulated being to "figure it all out" it's more likely they are not wholly enclosed in the simulation, rather the simulation has simply occupied their entire set of sensory inputs. This is also basically what Descartes was saying.

@JeremyVineOn5 Miss out on beeping competitions, shouting through your window, cutting them off and then get followed home even if you live in China? The joys of road-rage, hmm? I don't know what is more irritating: The horn or the finger? Fine the diddly-doo out of them, I say...

Should we fine drivers £100 for honking their horn? One council in England could be doing just that. Is it time to bring in fines for drivers who belligerently beep on the roads?

@JeremyVineOn5 No, they prefer you to shuffle along precariously on the icy pavements. Caught me with a few dramatic slips last year but not this year, Mr Frost...

Should you grit your own street? Brits are braving icy conditions, leading to a rise in injuries and crashes, but many streets haven't been gritted. Should it be up to councils to make sure every road and pavement is safe? Or should you take matters into your own hands?

Jim Carrey delivering a spot on Matthew McConaughey 🤣😂🤣

@JeremyVineOn5 Who wears pyjamas apart from Paddington?

Is it OK to stay in your pyjamas on Christmas Day?

@montypython It's good bonking music. They like a good Frenching... #ShouldntBeSaying

Now that's what you call a headliner. #MontyPython
