nights mate

thanks you too

still holding aspirations to get further into device physics etc

i was spending about half my time in the physics department, but lately too much ee project work is taking up my time

nice! German science discipline seems world class afaict.

really?

how about you?

australia

wishing i'd done a double degree phys/eng but realising it's probably too late for that now

@TobiasFünke i'm just an ignorant EE grad student slowly learning to love photonics. But as I don't currently have much of a useful QM education, it's actually just EM optics at this stage really

nice, i'd love to research in spectroscopy type topics!!

> "Deep" refers to the high energy of the lepton, which gives it a very short wavelength and hence the ability to probe distances that are small compared with the size of the target hadron, so it can probe "deep inside" the hadron

wow

nice :)

ooooh

what is CM?

@JohnRennie my thought exactly. we'd all be tempted in one way or another to find a way to bs ourselves that it's justified

oh i see

or if the gravity wave is more like 'rarefaction' and there's a limit on lower bound. ie. a gravity vacuum i guess you'd call it?

it made me wonder if you could engineer a region of very very low gravity in a tiny space to fit a small computer chip

since i read this "clocks at higher altitude tick faster than clocks on Earth's surface" (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hafele%E2%80%93Keating_experiment)

oh i see, thanks @RyderRude

if gravity is polarised would time flow backwards in positive gravity? or just things would repel eachother?

right

:)

if we're talking about parking at blackholes, can we also talk about production of gravitational waves with an anisotropic wavefront to produce a focal point in which a tiny computer could operate?

interesting

oh i see

would it be correct that the less mass your computer has, the more difficult it would be to exploit the dilation speedup method?

@RyderRude this is the kind of insanity i can get behind :)

wonderful thanks @TobiasFünke really appreciate it. you're definitely the best analyst-therapist around ;)

so the findings of no hidden variables means it truly is random, as distinct from the classical approach to modelling complex systems with randomness?

when they say 'hidden variables' is that shorthand for saying "actually deterministic, but too complex to calculate so random variables are easier, mathematically?"

...perhaps there's simply no point trying to understand entanglement, or it's implications, without a proper quantum background first

maybe i should be grateful it's not my field or i think i'd have spasms everytime i open a browser

good lawd, the amount of woo around quantum topics online makes it practically inpenetrable to those of us without a proper quantum background.

@naturallyInconsistent thanks that's some good insight :)

* by not applicable, meaning not part of the required solution.

Do people find a good working knowledge of relativity reframes your conception of electromagnetism specifically even when considering cases for which relativity is not generally applicable?

hallo

what could be the reason...🤔

hmmm let me try and guess

> why is the earth at the center of the observable universe

if only i'd not still been procrastinating

hehehe

**disappears for months **

'i'll just close this chat tab for a few days to focus on my work'

wow, that makes sense

interesting

oh really?
