GR predictably breaks down at the quantum scale. By defining space as a discrete manifold, we derive time dilation mechanically as c² = v² + vₜ², cosmological redshift as attenuation, and dark sectors are eliminated as informational artifacts. doi.org/10.5281/zenodo…

@EricRWeinstein Frequency and color are practically the same thing. Even light bulbs give their frequency on the packaging at this point. You need both philosophy and logic in your life, mainly logic. Math has you hallucinating. Maybe a bit of information theory would help too.

Eric Weinstein
Eric Weinstein@EricRWeinstein·
Stuart, I have had no feelings about you one way or the other. I would have been happy to meet you. I still would, although you are souring me a bit. I have strong feelings about Roger and physics. We all love Roger. And most of us *love* some, but not all, of his ideas. Let me be clear. Your collaborator and I share a belief which I believe we arrived af independently. Gravity/The metric is central to “Observation”. This has animated my life since around 1983-5. I believe in my case it means something more specific than in Roger’s case. I deeply admire Roger so i welcome his saying this, whether or not i have priority. Happy for the company and his idiosyncratic perspective. What I mean with great specificity is that the quantum world takes place on a 14D space of metric tensors, and that the spacetime metric g of Einstein is a map from a 4D “classical world” X into its own bespoke 14D “quantum world” Y(X). The quantum data Q(Y) is pulled back or observed as g^*{Q(Y(X))) back on X. No microtubules. No consciousness. Just math. So you have a different theory. A bet. Your bet is that consciousness is necessary for observation. That it is part of the Everything in the misleading phrase “Theory of Everything”. Great! More power to you. No objection. Make that bet. But then you are going to educate me about how I don’t get it. How consciousness is part of the physical substrate. Or whatever. Uh…That’s not going to work. You have a bet. That’s all you have. And you seem to have no idea what a “Theory of Everything” is. Its a term of art Doc. It’s mostly a 1980s declarative marketing branding excercise gone horribly wrong, like calling your chocolate company “Galaxy’s best Triple Chocolate(tm).” If physics were chess, it would be the rules of chess. Not the strategies. Not the games. Not the theory. It’s just the rules. It’s emphatically not EVERYTHING. I’m sorry you got sucked into that. Truly. Now, I’m not sure triple chocolate exists. And I don’t believe you have a theory of everything. Nor do I believe that Roger’s great Twistor program, which I adore, is the missing link. You’re just a competitor. And I think that is great. If you have technical chops out here, explain what you mean. Happy to do it in private also. If you have something to teach, teach. But don’t drag consciousness into physics unless you can prove that it belongs at this layer. And you haven’t remotely done that. And if you succeed at that, I will have been wrong. And will be happy to say so. But you haven’t won yet. You normally don’t take victory laps while the game is being played and you haven’t won. It’s not a great way to meet people. Least of all your competitors. And, honestly, I’m not entirely sure what you are doing on the field. But I’m happy to hear you out. I stand by what I said. Color is not part of what we mean by physics. Wavelength and frequency and photons are. Color is not. And it is important to NOT expand physics to include consciousness unless someone can make that case. Which I am open to hearing. But that is gonna be a tough climb. Sorry.
Stuart Hameroff@StuartHameroff

Thanks Eric We almost met once. Roger Penrose tried to introduce us but you looked away dismissively. You haven’t changed. You didn’t respond to my criticisms of your positions which I conclude to mean you have no viable responses. Without consciousness you have a theory of nothing. Meanwhile the 30 year old Penrose-Hameroff Orch OR theory of consciousness has more explanatory power, biological connection and experimental validation than all other theories combined. academic.oup.com/nc/article/202…

@Its_keith_d @elonmusk I haven't actually seen any ads on X and it just takes a millisecond to scroll thru. Not like the old days when bandwidth was limited and ads were multimedia. Do a test. See what your response rate is.

@Patriot5715 @PhilosophyOfPhy After reviewing the replies on this account, it has been positively identified as an AI controlled engagement farming correction baiting account, aka, rage-baiting. They are unfortunately all over X right now.

@Patriot5715 @PhilosophyOfPhy You are an obvious troll or bot with absolutely no idea what you are talking about. One look at your page makes it obvious. Perhaps if you had studied psychology, you would be able to hide your ignorance. Instead, your trollness is on full display via the replies on your page.

@Patriot5715 @haanzon @PhilosophyOfPhy @skdh The account I just blocked, Patriot5715, is what's called an engagement farming bot. It's literally AI designed to produce rage-bait. Just so everyone on this thread knows. Engagement farming bots are all over X, and the most popular type is correction baiting, aka rage-bait.

@floggyrock10864 @navyret71 @TheRabbitHole @elonmusk @SkepResCenter The OP simply stated that the Arab Muslims were the largest group of slave traders long before the Atlantic slave trade started. The point is that it is okay for like-kind racial groups to enslave their own kind but not for outsiders to. Same as with interracial marriage.

@umireon Grok/Gemini reason from what others have reasoned. They reflect the institutional dogma they were trained on as selected by their creators. Teaching Claude to ferret out what is claimed as dogma vs. what is in the data. Nature's truth. Not man's.

@memcculloch @TheRealVerbz No Relativity aligned journal is going to publish anything that exposes their god for the fraud that he is. Every experiment that supposedly supports Relativity, in reality, falsified it. Hafele-keating. No conservation of energy. No biometrics proving time slows down.

The paper I'm writing models light as a pressure wave, predicts light speed & I've added quantised inertia to this model to produce general relativity (VSL version). It predicts a test (laser in a cavity) & a way to increase light speed. But can I get it published?!

@Patriot5715 @haanzon @PhilosophyOfPhy @skdh Ridiculous assessment. 100% false. Hence my Einstein quote. Einstein had to have other people do his math, which is why he had to rely on Minkowski. If you read the quote, and had half a brain, you could have deduced that.

@haanzon @PhilosophyOfPhy @skdh That's the current state of academia, physics that is controlled completely by mathematicians. "Now that the mathematicians have invaded relativity, I myself no longer understand it." -Albert Einstein I've already overturned Minkowski. See the papers pinned to my page.

@haanzon @PhilosophyOfPhy Natalie Wolchover of Quanta Mag, for example, had the nerve to call Sabine Hossenfelder, @skdh, a 'former' physicist, because she has lost her university affiliation in 09/25, by calling out an associate from Munich Center for Math Philosophy. She called his research bullshit.

@Fintech03 The big bang is a farce of confirmation bias. The CMB is the thermodynamic noise floor of information transfer. I'm tired of indoctrination in physics. Get logic and understand biases, get good or get left behind.

Until 1956, every physicist on Earth knew that the universe was symmetric, that it did not care about Left vs. Right. This is called P-Symmetry (Parity). Chien-Shiung Wu (the 1st Lady of Physics) looked at the radioactive decay of Cobalt-60. She found that the universe is actually Left-Handed. At a subatomic level, the mirror image of our world does not work the same way. The universe is 99.9% redundant, but it hides its asymmetry in the most microscopic cracks. This broken symmetry is the only reason we exist; if the Big Bang had been perfectly symmetric, matter & antimatter would have canceled out, leaving only empty light.
François Chollet@fchollet

The reason symmetry is so important in physics is because symmetry is a highly effective compression operator. If a system is invariant under some symmetry, you only need to explain one axis of it. Scientific models represent the systematic exploitation of the universe's internal redundancies through symbolic logic.

Pope Leo XIV@Pontifex·
Those who pray are aware of their own limitations; they do not kill or threaten with death. Instead, death enslaves those who have turned their backs on the living God, turning themselves and their own power into a mute, blind and deaf idol (Ps 115:4–8), to which they sacrifice every value, demanding that the whole world bend its knee. Enough of the idolatry of self and money! Enough of the display of power! Enough of war! True strength is shown in serving life. #Peace
