Like Being Erica go back in time? (Anyone else get the Canadian TV reference? Please?)
Hmmm, I dunno what I'd do. If time travelling taught me anything is that we cannot really change our mistakes or if we do, we will make other ones anyways. We're not perfect or omniscient. All we can do is learn from the past.
I would do it years from now after the next big invention comes out, go back 2 years and "invent" it myself (going back now wouldnt be feasible since inventing things when im too young would lead to strange questions)
Kefka's coming, look intimidating!
Have a nice day!!
What?
Ironically, Netflix just recommended this to me as being like Better Off Ted, but I haven't had a chance yet. I'll watch it eventually, the protagonist looks kind of cute.
This...sounds like you've travelled through time before.
It would lead to strange questions anyways, since big inventions tend to be team efforts and one guy doing it all alone is extremely unlikely. You'd lose all privacy, and labour under the expectation of continuing the trend.
It's good! Each episode she travels back in time to relive a past regret to try to change it. Needless to say, things don't always turn out as planned. It is really a story of personal growth as we see the protagonist, Erica, learn from her past and overcome obstacles in her present.
I cannot confirm nor deny that I have travelled through time.
Or it might be that I watched too much Being Erica.
Typical bleyblade and his trolling. we should just band you. everybody knows the uncertainty principle applies to the quantum level. a ball is not going to fall up and a die is not going to land edge side up. so bollocks to you
Well, it sounds well timed since I've a current interest in the basic idea.
What it does not sound like is anything even remotely similar to Better Off Ted. Up yours, Netflix. Again. This is like the time I was searching for Shakespeare and it suggested Rocky and freaking Bullwinkle.
You're a very strange man
Everybody? I think you have an artificially high estimate of how smart the majority of people are. I remind you, I've spoken with a woman who declaimed, "My cell phone doesn't even work, I have to dial all of the numbers and press send!"
Quantum doesn't just mean "very small"; it can impact anything with any degree of randomness, and there's nothing as random as a human being
Different != better. The difference between now and an alternate now, assuming a neutral shift, is that in the alternate now, you know viscerally what you're missing. You'd wind up dwelling on what was good about the way you were living before you went back and changed it, and have less appreciation of what was better after. That's human nature.
I would have accepted that part in harry potter, even though my mom said she'd dis hone me, maybe I would have a job if I had.
(very minor role, only going to pay about $500, but I would have been in the movie) (number 2)
This post brought to you by the power of boobs. Dear lord them boobs. Amen
Quantum theory applies to everything. It even explains how larger objects (as in, much larger than the molecular level) act very similar to Newtonian principles, as the mass of an object affects the waves as shown in Feynman's infinite histories. Basically, each possible outcome (of which there are infinite) translates into a spot on a wave. Outcomes that are similar to each other are also very close on the wave (i.e., both on the crest), and therefore reinforce each other. But there are some outcomes which are opposing each other (e.g., X molecule randomly deciding to turn right 90 degrees and fly off in that direction and X doing the same thing to the left side) are on opposing sides of the wave, thus essentially canceling each other out. The potential outcome of objects with higher mass are much more in sync with each other for the outcome that old Newtonian principles would predict. There is still a level of randomness, but not nearly as much.
And the uncertainty principle applies to everything as well. But when measuring large objects (say, a soccer ball or a car), the units we use to measure its location (even millimeters) do not come close to reaching all of the zeros in Planck's constant (the maximum amount of certainty we can have of an object's location and velocity). That number is really, really small, and even measuring in millimeters and meters per second don't come even close to reaching that level of certainty. But this does have a profound effect on locating molecules, and, interestingly enough, the uncertainty principle also shows that there is no such thing as empty space -- and that even if we can't see or measure anything, matter is constantly, in lay terms, popping in and out of existence.
So yes, Bleys is right. For once. Someone should alert the press.
I find this subject much more interesting than the time travel discussion.![]()
Spontaneous creation and annihilation of particles and their antiparticles is fun. (for example an electron and an antielectron aka positron)![]()
I can honestly say that I do not have any regrets, at least not any that would be worth testing the fabric of the universe over. I'm not going to sit here and claim that everything's been sunshine, but I think I've been lucky. There have been small, albeit innocuous, moments, but I think my missteps have helped me, rather than hindered me.
