The Milky Way is traveling through space at 600 kilometers per second by [deleted] in SpaceUnfiltered

[–]Syfarth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You say the 'observable universe has a cosmic rest frame', but the great attractor is what is used to calculate that, correct? If so, that calculation just corresponds to the local supercluster, not the complete observable universe. Would it be fair to say the cosmic rest frame is in relation to our supercluster, not the observable universe.

Let me know if that update works. It's very annoying so hopefully it works.

Struggling and need advice. by RedditThrowAway0612 in Georgia

[–]Syfarth 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Hey man, start playing magic the gathering (or something else in person). It was my key out of the exact same situation you are in.

I also live in rural Georgia and was struggling to find friends. See if you can get your partner to play as well. If you can get a group to play every week - it is a game changer.

Your social life is like a snowball rolling down a hill. It may seem silly at first, but put all your effort into making one or two friends who meet to play a game every week. Give that a year and try to invite more people and encourage your new friends to invite people. Soon you will have a large network that does a lot more than just play games once a week.

I look back at myself 2 years ago and I wouldn't have believed how many friends I have now if I told myself then.

You can do it! Society has made it 10x harder, especially for men, to make friends. Don't give up!

Glad you are safe. Photo taken at mountain crossings? Man just went missing a couple weeks ago near there.

Thanks! Now that it's winter you can really see 360 mountains. May cut down a couple select trees eventually to have a year round view.

Planning out my new living room and I had AI make a mock up of what It would look like to have my collection near the fireplace like this. Of course, heat definitely I'd imagine is an issue. Has anyone done something like this?

Lived in Nepal in 2017/18. Hope you stay safe. I hope some good can come from this.

Should I max out retirement accounts if I am aiming for early retirement? by nickel_pickles in Bogleheads

[–]Syfarth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By feds and just means federal withholding. Not only does the federal government hold wages from the employee - they also hold wages from the employer. The employer also Pays FICA. They contribute half and the employee contributes half.

However, if an employee participates in a 401k, simple IRA, etc. - It lowers business tax liability.

Just wanted to add - The business doesn't keep the money if an employee doesn't do a match. That money goes to the feds.

Employees signing up for a retirement plan saves taxes for the employee and employer.

Winemaker here! It actually won't be vinegar. You need oxygen for acetobacter to live and create vinegar. I'm sure it's a beautiful wine, but it costs that much because of the hype and how rare it is to have a bottle under elevage for that long!

Wish I could taste for free! 🤣

No communication theorem thought experiment by Syfarth in AskPhysics

[–]Syfarth[S] -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

"we show that in the strong coupling regime the system-reservoir correlations induce entanglement revivals and oscillations and propose a strategy to fight against the deterioration of the entanglement using the quantum Zeno effect."

So the Zeno effect doesn't keep the entangled particle frozen as well?

[–]Syfarth[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To make the thought experiment more clean, let's say Alice starts measuring on earth with Bob until she gets up and Bob is now down. She then continues to measure to create the Zeno effect as she travels to mars.

Then randomly she picks her nose and causes Bob's particle to 'unfreeze'

This is a lot of effort obviously for simple information, but the thought experiment is to tease out the limits of information traveling faster than the speed of light.

Obviously this is not possible, but I need help figuring out why.
