My life is extraordinarily mundane, and nothing exciting hardly ever happens. LEGO Star Wars III is going to be in my grasp as of tomorrow, so that is bound to shake things up a bit (). But to be honest, I am perfectly contend with living an extraordinarily boring life.
Well, ideas come to me, randomly and then I look into them. Lately I've been on this.
To illustrate how perception may be wrong, especially concerning the 3rd dimension. Current theoretical postulates have put forth the idea that the third dimension we perceive as depth is an illusion created from a 2 dimensional existence that essentially bends. While we operate in three dimensions because that's how we perceive it, it may not be fundamentally correct to think of existence as being such.
And what do I discover?
The holographic principle is a property of quantum gravity and string theories which states that the description of a volume of space can be thought of as encoded on a boundary to the region—preferably a light-like boundary like a gravitational horizon. First proposed by Gerard 't Hooft, it was given a precise string-theory interpretation by Leonard Susskind[1] who combined his ideas with previous ones of 't Hooft and Charles Thorn.[2] In fact, as pointed out by Bousso,[3] Thorn observed in 1978 that string theory admits a lower dimensional description in which gravity emerges from it in what would now be called a holographic way.
In a larger and more speculative sense, the theory suggests that the entire universe can be seen as a two-dimensional information structure "painted" on the cosmological horizon, such that the three dimensions we observe are only an effective description at macroscopic scales and at low energies. Cosmological holography has not been made mathematically precise, partly because the cosmological horizon has a finite area and grows with time.[4][5]
The holographic principle was inspired by black hole thermodynamics, which implies that the maximal entropy in any region scales with the radius squared, and not cubed as might be expected. In the case of a black hole, the insight was that the description of all the objects which have fallen into the hole, can be entirely contained in surface fluctuations of the event horizon. The holographic principle resolves the black hole information paradox within the framework of string theory.The physical universe is widely seen to be composed of "matter" and "energy". In his 2003 article published in Scientific American magazine, Jacob Bekenstein summarized a current trend started by John Archibald Wheeler, which suggests scientists may "regard the physical world as made of information, with energy and matter as incidentals." Bekenstein quotes William Blake and asks whether the holographic principle implies that seeing "the world in a grain of sand," could be more than "poetic license".[12]Although I understand all the concepts, I don't have a full comprehension of the complete, and entire validation of the scientific studies.The holographic principle states that the entropy of ordinary mass (not just black holes) is also proportional to surface area and not volume; that volume itself is illusory and the universe is really a hologram which is isomorphic to the information "inscribed" on the surface of its boundary
...That's what you fill your days with?
Well, it's like this. That comes to me regularly.On a regular basis I'm friendless, no girl friend...I work out too though. I do home work some times.Originally Posted by Remon
I watch a show called Fact of Faked, which I at least find entertaining. I love movies, I like music but lately it has to have ANGST...
That's about it.
Generally it goes:
Usually get 7 hours sleep or so.
8:30am - Wake up. Basically have a leisurely start to the morning.
9:45-ish - Set off to the University campus.
10:00am - Start work in the library. Will usually take about an hour off during the day to run errands/have lunch.
6:00pm - Usually head home.
Most nights at university I have something planned during the evening be it society stuff or seeing the missus. I have been known to stay much later at the library and I just adjust it based on my workload. It's not uncommon for me to stay until 7:30/8:00pm, but that's usually if I've had something distract me during the day and I want to make the time up. I've had people moan that I spend too much time in the library (I'm in there 7 days a week, though I'll start at half ten/eleven on a weekend), but I genuinely enjoy going there.
I've no idea what I'll do with myself when my exams are over and I no longer need to go to the library every day. I'll probably still do it.
Not my words Carol, the words of Top Gear magazine.
I wish I could make some room in my day for pissing aboutI think that's what this is called now, and it's cutting into my sleep time.
there's no I in team, but there is in pie, as in meat pie, and meat is an anogram of team
7 hours of sleep
School
Work (Variable)
Girlfriend time
Looking at everyone's schedule in this thread makes me realize how much of my own time isn't really my own. I spend at least 2/3's of my day doing stuff I'd rather not (sleeping, working.)
Signature by rubah. I think.
People still have their own time past high school?
I don't have my own time, but I make sure I do stuff I want to on other people's time because life's too short for me to care. For example, almost all the time I spend on EoFF anymore (including right this second) I'm at work pretending to be processing credit card transations. It's kind of better this way since now I basically get paid to post here.
I really wish there was something I could do about the sleep thing though. That's so many lost hours I really wish I could be doing something fun/productive with.
I like Kung-Fu.
Yes, I have time to work out, go to movies on occasion, watch movies, watch Doctor Who, play video games on occasion...eat, buy and listen to music.
Life is still pretty decent as far as being a slacker and procrastinator goes.
