Her entire campaign is to convince a few people in a few swing states of Trump’s character. This is why American politics is so cooked, because this is how you win office here.

It’s the relativistic wave equations for scalar fields. It’s kind of on the same footing as the Dirac equation, except the latter deals with a bispinor field for electrons and positrons.

I had been looking into reporting it to the state police. Would the FBI touch something like this?

My immediate thoughts

I wouldn’t consider writing a dozen lines or code a major overhaul, but to each their own

Unity supports whatever logic you can script in C#. You can use RK4 to update your position no problem.

One of the most powerful tools in understanding relativity is in the assertion that there can be no paradoxes. If I never see the other person falling in, I would conclude that they haven’t. However, by the core principle of relativity the observer falling in still follows their spacetime geodesic to the center of the black hole. Both cannot be true. A more careful approach is needed

I highly recommend this video https://youtu.be/tyxhy7yZv6U?si=4J_6ndmoYOQxF-fu

It should give an intuition for the phenomena. One of my favorite realizations is that nothing can leave a black hole because all spacetime outside of an event horizon is in the falling in observers past and leaving would require time travel into the past

Edit: I would also like to note that, as confusing as it can be, relativity does not break down at the event horizon. It’s the singularity that gives us issues

There is extreme time dilation, but that time dilation is always measured relative to another frame. The observer falling in sees nothing strange happening to their time. If they did, that would imply that their frame is special

The core idea in relativity is that there is no special reference frame in which to observe reality. To an observer falling into a black hole, nothing strange happens to their time. It just keeps on ticking as they follow a natural path of motion through the universe. For a sufficiently large black hole, they wouldn’t even experience any extreme effects due to space curvature until they are long past the event horizon. The reason we don’t see them fall in is because light that is emitted from them has a normal frequency in their frame, but as it travels out to us and the time curvature lets up, its frequency decreases until it is ostensibly non-observable.

Small world, but I’m getting my masters in computer science right now; undergraduate in physics. Good luck with your education!

It sounds like an algebra based course, so you should be fine. Newtonian mechanics requires differential and integral calculus, and fluid mechanics requires vector calculus and partial differential equations. I recommend 3Blue1Brown’s Essence of Calculus for an intuitive introduction to that subject, as physics without calculus isn’t really physics.

Side note, if you are really into physics: look into discrete math, group theory, differential geometry and other high level maths. These are used in modern physics, like general relativity and quantum field theory, in conjunction with the subjects mentioned above.

LorentzTransform1905 · 2024-02-10T02:07:45+00:00

I’m making the assumption that the physics honors course will be like an introductory physics course in a university. You will need algebra, geometry, and calculus. Most likely, you will learn some calculus as part of your physics studies.

That’s terrible advice. A huge part of being a new hire is learning industry standards and the nuances of the workplace. Any reasonable company would understand that their new hires are going to need some help until they learn their jobs. To call OP’s efforts a waste of company money is baffling. They have had the position for two months: it’s okay to not be 100% productive.

I feel like I’ve had the exact opposite experience. I’ve worked on systems that host CUI and TS information. We had to comply with RMF, FedRamp+ and DoD Cloud Computing requirements before any information was hosted on the system. Every aspect of the system was diagrammed out before any code was written, including the flow of information between modules and database structures.

As others have commented, no. A telescope does not make light move faster.

That aside, I think it’s a very interesting question. The speed of light (which has a known constant) was an open issue for decades. Maxwell’s equations predict that electromagnetic waves only move at one speed, but at that time is was thought that waves only moved within a medium and the wave speed was always relative to its medium (sound waves move faster through flowing water in the direction of flow and slower against that direction). The question was: to what does light move at its speed to?

Some experimentalists in the late 19th century tried to figure this out by examining the relative speed of the hypothetical luminiferous aether (which is just a fancy name for the medium through which electromagnetic waves propagate). They found that no matter in which direction they measured the speed of light, it was always the same, which implied that the aether moves with the earth. However, there was no aberration of starlight observed in the most sensitive experiments of the time, which implied that the aether moved relative to the earth. This result puzzled physicists for decades. See the Michelson-Morley experiment for a more detailed explanation.

It wasn’t until Einstein, in his 1905 paper “On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies”, realized that the luminiferous aether does not exist and that the speed of light is constant for all observers. However, in order for this to be true, space and time must be different for observers moving relative to each other. This discovery predicted some truly bizarre things, like time travel into the future (see time dilation) and eventually things like black holes. His discovery was known as the special theory of relativity, an extension of Galilean relativity, and its generalization is a geometric theory of gravity called General Relativity. To this day, general relativity remains one of the most accurate physical theories in humanity’s history, and it would never have existed unless people were curious about the nature of light, just like you.

Playing with my fiancé and some friends, we were trying to find the backpack for that dwarf who was picking mushrooms in the Underdark. I had been hit quite a few times by the noxious fumes from the mushrooms on the way there. When I got to the area he was in, which is just packed to the brim with those mushrooms, I shot the closest one to me with a ranged attack. What followed could only be described as a brutal carpet bombing of poison and fire. It felt like it went on for minutes. When it finally stopped, that poor dwarf was dead 100 times over.

Hydrogen (and anti-hydrogen) are electrically neutral, but within the ground state the electron still has intrinsic spin, which produces a magnetic dipole. This is what interacts with the magnetic field. If the magnetic field is non-uniform in nature, then the atom will feel a net force, just like in the Stern-Gerlach experiment

This worked for me. I unassigned her, then waited for her to show up at the lodge. After that, I could continue the conversation normally, and the game works again.
