1) define term probabalistic
2) observe particle decay
3) discover relation between 1) and 2)
4) make a conclusion: particle decay is probabalistic
can't get much easier than that.
The question is why is particle decay probabilistic, not whether or
not it is. We already know that it is, jackass. What's wrong with you?
It is random because of entropy but everyone knows that
so you must have something else in mind.
Why are we here?
What's life all about?
Is God really real?
Or is there some doubt?
full version:
Why are we here? What's life all about?
Is God really real, or is there some doubt?
Well, tonight, we're going to sort it all out,
For, tonight, it's 'The Meaning of Life'.
What's the point of all this hoax?
Is it the chicken and the egg time? Are we just yolks?
Or, perhaps, we're just one of God's little jokes.
Well, ça c'est 'The Meaning of Life'.
Is life just a game where we make up the rules
While we're searching for something to say,
Or are we just simply spiralling coils
Of self-replicating DN-- nay, nay, nay, nay, nay, nay, nay.
What is life? What is our fate?
Is there a Heaven and Hell? Do we reincarnate?
Is mankind evolving, or is it too late?
Well, tonight, here's 'The Meaning of Life'.
For millions, this 'life' is a sad vale of tears,
Sitting 'round with really nothing to say
While the scientists say we're just simply spiralling coils
Of self-replicating DN-- nay, nay, nay, nay, nay, nay, nay.
So, just why-- why are we here,
And just what-- what-- what-- what do we fear?
Well, ce soir, for a change, it will all be made clear,
For this is 'The Meaning of Life'. C'est le sens de la vie.
This is 'The Meaning of Life'.
We happen to know your answer.
Nothing new there.

We also happen to know the answer to the following:
Question: Why is Louis Savain Autistic?
Dirk Vdm
I don't think he his autistic, I think he is a trollish crackpot.
What you are really saying is that the physically real processes which
underlie particle decay are inherently random, stochastic, or otherwise
indeterminate. Specifically, the amount of time from one decay to the next
is considered truly random, and that this randomness is inherent in physical
reality and not merely a problem of observability or measureability.
The reason is very simple.
Modelling particles using the complex-like randoms (a + ~b), (a)*(~b),
you will notice that either (a) or (~b) is weighted more heavily. For
example,
1000 + ~[.1, .2] contains relatively littel disorder, whereas
1 + ~[100, 1000000] contains a relative high proportion of disorder.
The reason that nuclear dynamics exhibit genuine randomness is because the
numbers which best model those behaviours are in fact weighted in such a way
that they contain a high proportion of disorder.
We call it random because there is nothing in this universe we have so far
been able to sense that is predictive of these events. Not even previous
decay events are predictive of future decay events.
I don't know enough about this level of physics to say much more with
authority (I'm posting from c.a.p), but the more interesting question to be
asked here is not what the cause of the decay events are (it's quite
possible they have a very simple cause), but instead, why can't we sense
the cause? The answer to that I suspect is to be found in the methods we
have available to sense with. Our ability to sense is limited to
what we can build out of atoms and most likely, the answer is that you
can't build a machine to sense the cause of these decay events out of
atoms.
So, the answer to why we talk about the decay events as being random is not
because they have no predictable cause, but that we can't sense the cause
to verify any working hypothesis we might create to explain the events.

Well, at least you're not an ass kisser like Dick van de merde and
Vend. ahahaha... You need serious psychiatric help though. ahahaha...
Like everything else in physics, the cause of particle decay is simply
an imbalance, i.e., a violation of a conservation principle. Nature
corrects the imbalance by inducing an interaction that manifests
itself as particle decay. If you take a group of neutrons, they all
cause an equal imbalance. Why is it that all we can say is that half
of the neutrons will decay within a certain fixed interval t?
Subsequently, half of the remaining neutrons will decay within exactly
t and so on. t is the half-life interval. It is not possible to
predict which of the neutrons will decay within any half-life
interval.
The question I am asking is, why do the neutrons not all have a decay
interval equal to the half-life interval? Physicists do not know the
answer. Why? Simply because physicists don't know shit. ahahaha... And
yet, in spite of this glaring lacuna in their understanding, the
assholes feel free to assert that particles are in superposed states
(both decayed and not decayed) when nobody is looking. ahahaha... None

There is *nothing* that allows you to say that half of the neutrons
will decay within a certain fixed interval t.
Clearly a group of Louis Savains has no idea how probabilities work.

Indeed.

Hey, Van de merde. How many asses have you kissed today? ahahaha...
What does John Baez's ass smell like? ahahaha... AHAHAHA... ahahaha...
Any quantum mechanics textbook will tell you that it's because the
squared amplitude of the wave function is a probability density
function, which must be integrated over the relevant regions of
space. But I know you probably have your own cwn little perverted
version, which I'm just dying to hear.
ahahaha... Another clueless physicist wannabe. So probabilistic decay
is due to probability, eh? Get your head out of your ass for a change,
jackass. And, for crying out loud, stop kissing other people's asses.
They are just as clueless as you are. ahahaha... AHAHAHA... ahahaha...
It just consists in insults.
you call it "imbalance", somebody else calls it "probability density function".
Even if you call it "God's will", at the end of the day, your model can't
predict or describe particle decay better that any other model.
You are just renaming old stuff. The fact is that particle decay is
probabilistic and no matter what story you invent that "explains" why particle
decay is probabilistic, you won't get any smarter. You better save your ideas
for next Terminator movie.
Your imbalance theory is not something new. In Middle ages people thought that
every illness is caused by imbalance. What does it tell us about you? Are you
some kind of retro-philosopher? Is This year imbalance theory in again :))))
Fuck you, whoever you are. This is not my theory. Even Newton spoke of
unbalanced forces. I haven't given the answer to the question in this
thread yet. I am waiting for all the usual ass kissers to put their
feet in their mouths. ahahaha...
Like everything else in medicine, the cause of Savain's mental illnes

If it is an "equal" imbalance, then is it a "balanced" imbalance? WTF
would a balanced imbalance be, anyway?

Yes but Newton was some stupid ass kissing mother fucker. He didn't event know
that particles decay.
He was a really dumb fuck jackass.

Because neurtrons are "out of balance"?

Take your meds, you're losing it - big time.
It's some weird math currently being invented on sci.physics. Pretty simple
stuff, a quick explanation :
Let a be Real. Let (~b) be an uncertainty,
( a + ~b ) = a + ~[b1, b2] continuous case
( a + ~b ) = a + ~{b1, b2, b3...bn} discrete case
~[b1, b2] is like a continuous valued "die", with values ranging anywhere
from b1 to b2.
~{b1, b2, b3...bn} is a discrete valued die, with face values being b1, b2,
b3, ...b_n
a is nonrandom, and ~b is random.
The sum and product of these complex-like numbers can have the following
geometric interpretation.
Case #1
(a)*(~b).
| ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ |
Length is everywhere fuzzy. The existence of any given point is
probabilistic.
Case #2
(a + ~b)
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| + [~ ~ ~)
Length is everywhere well behaved except at the endpoint, which is
probabilistic.
Now, the interesting trick is that physical space is "topologically
indeterminate". You dont know if it is continuous or not. It may be regarded
as either one or the other as you wish, and in fact it must be this way.
Case#1 and case#2 above can toggle back and forth effortlessly, because
space is a duality of case#1 and case#2.
Clearly, this leads to a more fundamental question which is an examination
of the distinction between addition and multiplication. And I think that it
can be shown quite easily that this distinction is essentially little more
than yet another consideration of order, disorder, structure, etc.
This is an analytical explanation of the wave-particle duality. That's all I
can remember from my physics studies at UIC, but I think that they're still
teaching it pretty much like that.
>So everyone is Varney is it, oh font of all ignorance?
Why not? Any gutless anonymous coward might as well be fucking Mike
VARNEY. I think it's funny. ahahaha... AHAHAHA... ahahaha... The
problem with gutless cowards like you is that you have zero sense of
humor. ahahaha...
The decay is not ~probabilistic~
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic
...because we know for most particles, a deterministic
way to alter their lifetimes. The muon for example.
It is the statististical process we use to evaluate a
system with many unknown factors that makes the
decay process *appear* to be a matter of random chance.

Not interested in the Nobel because it can close your mind to
better solutions. Look what a mess the Photoelectric award
made of Einstein's neural networks.
http://nobelprize.org/physics/articles/ekspong/index.html
Quietly forward the prize money to my agent in Nigeria and I'll send
you photo of what I am doing with it in Tahiti. ;-)
Sue...
The existence of points is everywhere probabilistic.
Case#2
(a
+ ~b)
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| + [~ ~ ~)
Length is only probabilistic on the endpoint of a well behaved interval.
OK - so space is a duality of the above cases. Space can toggle back and
forth effortlessly. Space is simultaneously both.
Just as
2+2+2+2+2+2+2 = 14 = 7*2. It's the same exact situation. The number 14 is
/both/ a sum and a product, and space is likewise /both/ a sum and a
product, where disorder is either added to an endpoint or alternatively
infused throughout the length. As seen above.
The main reason I posted this is to mention that the Lorentz Transform could
live in such a space. The dual space which behaves like these
| ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| + [~ ~ ~)
Space is a die. A die that does not know whether it's output is continuous
or discrete.
The Lorentz Transform would work very nicely in such a space and I can prove
it right here and now. When the magnitude of the random part is small enough
this space will behave just like R3 or R4.
There it is.
Physics is unified, the show is over, everybody can go home now,
..........and make sure not to tell anyone.
I am a Ph.D. chemist (definitely NOT named Mike Varney). All of the
"Idiot savant" Savain's taunts about "physicists" are even more
unintentionally funny than usual, since I'm not a physicist, and never
have been.

This graphic explains a direct connection between multiplication, addition,

Then, consider that multiplication and addition are distinguished only as a

This is pathetic, Sue. Nobody can observe that the lifetime of a
*single* muon has been lengthened due to relativistic "time dilation"
since the lifetime of a single muon cannot be predicted. Only the
average statistical lifetime of a bunch of muons can be observed to
undergo "time dilation" while moving at very high speeds.
Note that I put "time dilation" in quotes only because it is a
misnomer: time can neither dilate nor change since time is not a
variable, a billion relativists braying and howling to the moon
notwithstanding. ahahahaha... Variable time is an oxymoron as anybody
with two neurons between their ears should know. That's why time
travel is crap. ahahaha... The crackpots of the physics community
should replace "time dilation" with something like "clock slowing" or
"process slowdown". However, can we expect a mutual ass-kissing
society to come to its senses after a century of crackpottery? Answer:
Of course not. ahahaha... AHAHAHA... ahahaha...

"Time dilation" was never mentioned except by you.
Muon lifetimes were extended by selecting their "favorite"
speed. In the BNL g-2 experiment. Electron lifetimes can be
shortened by proximity to a positron.
You are off on wild tangent so obviously don't even understand

I just love usenet. It's an incessant source of comedy. Peer review at
its best. ahahaha...
The linked article says that time travel is impossible because
spacetime is unchanging.
However, that argument does not preclude an object from having a fixed
but non-linear
shape in spacetime. A hypothetical object with a fixed "S" shape in
spacetime
would appear to move forward then backward then forward in time to a
normal observer,
for example.
The principle that seems to preclude this is conservation of matter,
not the fixed nature of
spacetime. At the bends in the "S" matter would appear to be
spontaneously created
or destroyed. This seems to be the downfall of all "time travel"

Non-baryonic dark matter does not interact with normal matter except through
gravity.
(quickly looking through wiki)
can baryons or their activity be 'imagined' as a low level
activity on a strata and heirarchy? I'm thinking in frequencies
here?
I'm not surprised, stupid jackass.

A normal observer? There is no observation possible in an unchanging

half-life because it is 1/2 of an interval. It is called half-life
because half of a given group of particles (e.g., neutrons or muons)
are observed to decay in the interval. The half-life interval of a
particle is its average decay time.

Ok. I think it's time that I relieve you from your painful misery.
ahahaha... Why is particle decay probabilistic? Here's the answer:
All particle interactions in the universe have exactly the same
fundamental discrete duration. An interaction is nature's way of
correcting a violation to a conservation principle. Ideally, the
interaction interval should be proportional to the severity of the
violation. However, since nature cannot calculate an exact interval
(there is only fundamental interval), it is forced to use the only
alternative, probability. Thus the probability of a decay
(interaction) is proportional to the severity of the violation.
Question: What is the fundamental interaction interval?
Answer: Possibly the Planck Time.
Question: Why is there only one interation interval?
Answer: Because time does not exist. It is abstract.
Question: Why does time not exist?
Answer: Because a time dimension would make change impossible.
Change exists. Time is is abstractly inferred from change. You can
learn more about the non-existence of time by clicking on the link
below:
http://www.rebelscience.org/Crackpots/notorious.htm
Physicists have no idea why particle decay is probabilistic and yet
they feel free to teach all sorts of voodoo nonsense having to do with
superposition of states when nobody is looking. What a bunch of
fucking crackpots! ahahaha... There is no superposition of states, you
imbeciles. There are only degrees of violations. The universe is one
(distance is an illusion) and has a single heartbeat, so to speak. It
simply uses probability to decide what percentage of a group of
similar violations to correct at every beat. So, what's my point? My
point is twofold:
1. Quantum computing is either a hoax or outright stupidity.
2. Physicists don't know shit. They are all mental midgets.

this is very nice story that says nothing much. If time is function of change,
it doesn't mean that change is more fundamental then time.
If you have formula:
v=s/t
you can say that v is calculated value and distance and time are basic values,
but in formula
t=s/v
time is calculated and distance and speed are not. This formula is not better
than the first one, it is the same thing.
Your theory doesn't bring anything new. It is just a story. You can't use your
theory to better predict particle decay. All you did is rewrite formula v=s/t in
the form t=s/v and concluded that time is inferred from change. Good for you.
>this is very nice story that says nothing much. If time is function of change,
>it doesn't mean that change is more fundamental then time.
Who said anything about change being more fundamental than time? Time
does not exist, period. Why? Because a physical time would make motion
impossible. That's why but I'm sure it will go over your head.
Distance does not exist either, BTW. Only positional properties exist
and distance is merely the vector difference between two positions.

Louis Savain
Why Software Is Bad and What We Can Do to Fix It:
http://www.rebelscience.org/Cosas/Reliability.htm
In Harris Math these things are perfectly sensible. We can very easily
justify the view that time is probabilistic.
Mr. Savain, it appears, has gone quite mad. He muses the nonexistence of
that which clearly also exists, and cannot balance the philosophical
checkbook.
Ahhhhh, SAVAIN, lemented I.
I did some collision detections in software.
Usual (and good way) for this is to use discrete space (AKA matrix): you
just can't put two 'dots' on the same place in matrix.
If you chose contiuous space, you're into some really complex algorithms
like linear programming.
But suppose we're using continuous space. Double.MIN_DOUBLE becomes
equivalent of Planck length. Each 'particle' is a thread, continously
scanning its environment and correcting it's own behaviour based on
environment data.
So what happens when two such threads collide?
It usually goes as expected - balls knock each other and they go its own
way each.
But if one goes too fast, inner loop may miss collision detection; in
one iteration, its in front, in second iteration it's passed by the
other already, and no collision is detected. Sounds like quantum
tunelling right? It depends on speed (~energy) of first particle, and
'height' (~ barrier energy) of the second. Another view on the same
effect is relativistic: 'particle' 'shortens' with increase of speed;
shorter the particle, tunnelling probablity higher/collision detection
probability lower.
And, what happens when we have a lot of such 'particles'? Its lot of
threads and computer slows down. Each thread's inner loop slows down,
IOW time slows down.
And so on; unintentionally I got a number of phisical effects instead of
plain and simple collision detection.
I thought to myself, could it be that time does not really exist? Could
it be that it's just a side-effect of universes finite processing power?
Then I asked Internet Allmighty the same thing, and He came up with

In fact, it does make sense.
Take a look at this.

Now, Paulus explains this in terms of "slits in time". He's a great
physicist, but I dont like his interpretation. I think that it's much more
sensible that time is probabilistic, hence, ergo, and therefore, to wit :
interference in the time regime.
Need I say QED ?
Unless you can explain "slits in time", .........

Interesting but why use a thread for each particle? It it not better
to use a data structure for each particle and have your update loop go
through the collection of particles and update their properties as
necessary? The biggest problem with threads, however, is that they are
not synchronous, i.e., some particle may get processed faster than
another.

That's probably because you use positional jumps to effect movement
and fast particles simply make longer jumps and do not go through the
in-between positions.
>Sounds like quantum

>'height' (~ barrier energy) of the second.
That's exactly what happens in quantum tunelling (a stupid misnomer,
IMO): Particles can make long-distance jumps and do not go through the
in-between positions. It can happen because there is no space.
Position is one of the intrinsic properties of every particle. In the
future, we will create jump technologies that will enable us to move
from anywhere to anywhere almost instantly. I call it "long-distance
quantum jump".
>Another view on the same

That, I disagree with since particles do not have size in my
cosmology. You can talk about the distance between particles being
shorter though.

I do see your point. It is not time that dilates, it is the processes
that slow down due to energy conservation issues. Big difference.
Relativists can never understand this truth.

Of course, time does not exist. Only the crackpots of the physics
community and their ass kissers believe in the existence of time.
Having said that, I disagree that our concept of time is a side effect
of the processing power of the universe. The universe is not run by a
single processor. It is the ultimate parallel computer (cellular
automaton) where every particle is its own processor. However, since
the universe is ONE (distance is a perceptual illusion), it has a
single heartbeat which gives us the fundamental interaction interval.
BTW, time does not dilate. The observation that physical processes can
slow down does not imply time dilation. It only implies, well, process
slowdown which, like every phenomenon in nature, is an energy
conservation phenomenon. Time cannot change, by definition. Changing
time is an oxymoron. All you can say is that a slowed clock measures
longer temporal intervals than another. Don't tell that to
relativists though. They are liable to have an apoplectic fit and
start jumping up and down while foaming at the mouth. ahahaha...
I'll take a look at the sites above. Thanks for the links.
If time simply "does not exist", as you claim, then how do you account for
the interference fringes in this experiment ?
http://faculty.physics.tamu.edu/ggp/
If time did not exist, then the fringes could not occur.
Right. I was just examining different approaches.
And it's not really threads vs. central loop issue; when N players fire
at each other, we have square complexity (N*(N-1)/2), so we completely
removed server-side collision detection.

In fact I use speed vectors. But they change asynchronously due to user
input, and relativistic due to internet lag.

Well with that I cannot agree:)
After all, we do experience time, right?
Thus believing in time is believing in own experience, and that's most
natural thing in natural intelligence.
So one needs not be crackpot neither asskisser for that.

Elsewhere I compared that smallest interaction to NOP instruction;)
I'm not aware that anything implies any kind of heartbeat. Like, INC
instruction can last 1.1537229843878249345 times NOP instruction:)
Such a 'heartbeat' may be, just as time, only in our heads.

Exactly. And if all neutrons had a decay interval equal to the half-
life interval, then they would *all* decay in that half-life interval,
which is not what a half-life is, by definition. Don't you feel like

> The half-life interval of a

That is also incorrect. The average decay time is a time called the
"characteristic life" or "characteristic time". It is related to, but
not equal to, the half-life.

Have I cranked you, PD? The point I was making, before you took it on
a tangent to better suit your ass kissing tendencies, ahahaha... is
hypothetical. I hypothesized that, if particle decay were
deterministic (as opposed to probabilistic), then all particles would
decay precisely at what is measured *now* as their half-life interval.
Why is this so hard for you to grasp? Of course, it would no longer
be called the half-life interval. This is obvious to everybody except
you. I did not have to explicitly say it. Phew! It just goes to show
you, once an ass kisser, always an ass kisser. ahahaha... AHAHAHA...

But it's totally compatible with computing viewpoint.
If particles were threads/processes/programs, they would have parts that
receive input and/or send output, and part(s) to process input and state
information. And there's your time slit AKA window in time: state change
cannot occur during input readings. Or something; it's not that hard to
explain anyway.
If I were to pursue this computing approach, I'd say that interference
patterns and particle decays are probabilistic due to turing machine
halting probability;)

claim the oposite;)

Well it's taken a bit out of context. In this view time is consequence
rather than dimension.

Yes. Short-lived isotopes are created in nuclear facilities like IUCF
all the time, and it is verified that those individual nuclides do
decay with an exponential distribution satisfying the bulk half-life
numbers. In fact, for very short half-lives, this is how the half-life
is measured.
Traveler's near-total ignorance of how half-life is actually
*measured* should not be confused with freedom from ass-kissing.

I quite enjoy your style, but I have to say your personal wannabe, Louis
Insane, who constantly cranks himself with such statements as "no such
thing as time" and "Have I cranked you?"(thereby stealing your thunder),
is a hahaha fucking lunatic.
Still, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I suppose he's harmless.
Has hanson cranked you, Phuckwit Duck, or are you still sitting in the duck
blind being blind to appearing ducks?

Draper:
I have to admit that I am demoralized at the moment.
I had hoped that we could fight ignorance with a proactive rather
than a reactive approach, but this is clearly the improper forum for
that. A quick survey of the length of threads initiated by or
drifting
to nonsense compared to the length of threads based on sound thinking
reveals the true interest in the proposal.
While it would be a useful project to contribute to the FAQ, the
intent was to educate in the context of discussion, a virtual
"classroom" if you will. There's no point in contributing to a
reference that none of the "students" will read or attempt to learn
from. The intention was to focus on *exactly* what is wrong in
someone's thinking (which varies from person to person), set it
straight, and then make progress from there.
I had high hopes -- really -- that perhaps one misguided soul would
read something sensible and say, "Oh... Really?...Oh. I see I was
confused. OK, I get it now. Now what about...?" My head knew better,
my heart does not.

You wouldn't be able to tell with your set-up. The atoms are still
there, they are just of a different element. Nuclear beta or alpha
decay doesn't result in the disappearance of an atom, only the
transmutation of an atom to a different kind of atom. This wouldn't
affect the STM significantly.

Neither.

I am not debating that the decay is probabilistic. It is. However,
Traveler claims we do not know why. That is wrong. Knowing this,
however, does not allow us to predict it any better, and so it is not
deterministic.
I already told you. Nuclear collisions at IUCF do this by routine, as
does Darmstadt. Surely you're not so lazy that you can't look those up
to see what they do rather than whining and baiting to have it
spoonfed to you on a newsgroup. Perhaps you'd like to look up the work
on elements 114 and 116, if that lends some focus to your looking.
