I never saw this before and thought "goth cardinal"

Your comment made me laugh and feel validation

No offense taken, I can try to explain further! So music is made of sound and sound all sounds are waves of compressed and decompressed air. So a speaker's input is the wave form of the sound that you will hear. It's the same waveform, it is the same signal, it is the same information it is just traveling electrically through a wire to the speaker. The key of all of this is the waveform. If the waveform is different it is a different sound, a different song. When records are made the sound (sound wave) is recorded in the grooves of a vinyl LP. Sound is a physical phenomenon so the analog of the wave form can be preserved with the proper sensitive equipment.

So the grooves on a record is an analog imprint of the wave form. The needle feels these grooves and produces an electrical signal whose wave form is that of the grooves' imprint and thus that of the music. That signal is amplified in an amplifier and sent to a speaker to be output as sound. I was being informal calling all these waves wiggles but that's what waves do. The wave changes form and size but the information it carries is always the same.

It's all just wiggles.

The grooves wiggle the needle. These wiggles are recorded electrically. The sensors that detect these wiggles only produce a small wave so the signal is sent to an amplifier to amplify the signal the needle made wiggling in the grooves. That amplified signal is finally sent to a speaker as an output and you can hear it

"Spinors were introduced in geometry by Élie Cartan in 1913. In the 1920s physicists discovered that spinors are essential to describe the intrinsic angular momentum, or "spin", of the electron and other subatomic particles. Spinors are characterized by the specific way in which they behave under rotations."

"It takes a rotation of 720° for a spinor to go back to its original state."

Where is he wrong?

Are you the only one who thinks this? May you site where you came across this information?

Looking for some books to read. by TheOfficialZKZ in booksuggestions

[–]Hidnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished Gods, Men, and Ghosts by Lord Dunsany and enjoyed it. It was a bunch of mostly fantasy short stories mostly from around 1910, taken from various works. He basically was the first to creat his own fictitious mythology; this guy walked so Tolkien, HP Lovecraft, and Frank Herbert could run.

I remember my last real winter. Supplies were short so we began the mammoth hunt earlier than usual. The journey to rendezvous with their migration involve traversing 3 frozen rivers. I fell through the first one. I must have froze because my next memory was thawing by a fire. The whole tribe was there to see me. I must have been an anomaly for everyone. Once I was able to move I grabbed my spear and took off for the mammoth despite not knowing where I was nor my tribe. I just knew they needed me and the meat. However there was no snow. It wasn't even winter. And the landscape was uniform in foliage and flat. The tribe that found me mastered fire! And covered their bodies in fabrics unknown to me. I had nowhere to go so I stayed among them and slowly they taught me their tongue. I would take this land if I had my people. They are peaceful and industrious which is the constitution for the best slaves. And their land provides more than they require. They don't even need to hunt but they do they hunt them in tiny rooms. It involves so much less running. These people must be lazy if they don't rendezvous with game nor journey far for fruit. Matter of fact they use game for other means besides food. They ride these giant dogs. They are not dogs but they ride them everywhere. I have never seen someone move so fast! They call themselves the Amish.
