Problem with Special Relativity.

Have we solved neutron decay yet?

Yes, to my satisfaction.

 

[Brian_G]

Yes, to my satisfaction.

Yet here you are trying to satisfy us

Aliens need to register as world citizens and then come here and back you up

It does compute: how else is energy conservation gonna work?

If Nature "just is" then it is a soul. But souls need unconscious computation and it needs some computer to issue orders to.

Nice. That one I'll support.

 

[Brian_G]

But also

Whatever is not being observed is not being processed, sneaky universe.

 

[EmmanuelGoldstein]

Yes, to my satisfaction.

Your satisfaction? What about the scientists out there.
Also what did your friends in tinfoil outfits have to say? Did they let you aboard their flying hubcap?

But aliens are real, even Wiki seems to think so

Since ya'll all to chicken shiit to admit it:
I am too stupid to understand the OP's statement.

Yes, and if Einstein claimed to be an expert ballet dancer, would you believe him?

 

[LCBXX]

No.
I'd be curious as to why he needs to claim that, though.

 

[RedViking]

Yes, to my satisfaction.

What are your plans for the weekend?

 

[EmmanuelGoldstein]

What are your plans for the weekend?

Probably reading math books and sitting there on their lonesome

The universe runs on cortisol and adrenalin. That's why nature has shaped environments in which fight or flight responses occur; the activation of the sympathetic nervous system is the universe getting ready to recharge.

Oh dear. Mr Chat GPT at it again.

The skeptic is a simulation running on slow, outdated hardware.

How is matter to know to become shorter and by how much?

Conservation of energy requires computation: how else is it to work?

When someone slaps you - there's no computation, only execution (reaction). That's pretty much the way of all things natural. There's no cosmic supercomputer governing nuclear reactions, it just happens.

It is generally known that particles can be "observers". Since there is 10^80 particles in the Universe, in order to compute length and time (using Special Relativity) the Universe has to compute a number: 2 combination 10^80, which is a huge number. That number is much too large to compute in a fraction of a second.

Dont you think that an infinitely large universe, would have an infinitely powerful calculator, that can conpute that in a fractiin of a second though?

"When someone slaps you - there's no computation, only execution (reaction)."

There is unconscious computation, even if it is just a neuron firing. Neurons must fire in the pattern you are about to react with.

You haven't answered my questions.
