Oh yeah, lack of transparency is essentially evidence of criminal activity when it comes to governments.

> Why do you think discretisation/quantisation is necessary for the "physical"? We are trying to explain, the physical reality we find outselves in, so, if the universe is fundamentally quantized, it must be discrete, as c

Quantum mechanics, is not "just one thing", so to say "it is true" is somewhat wrong I think. You are probably talking about the Copenhagen interpretation, involving superposition. Personally, I don't think this is

from who? Clausius? It doesn't make a lot of sense to me because a system at equilibrium, cannot go undergo any further diffusion, so there's no potential "entropy increase" Maybe the issue, is that, like an ideal gas, a

by dekken_ 1y ago
I believe you are correct. Entropy is not a physical quantity, it is a measure of how far a system is from equilibrium. Lots of people talk about order/disorder or macro and micro states, not realizing these are things we've inven

ahhah, thank you this code appears in the loading screens for the new game "forever winter" I was wondering if it was from the game or not, so it seems not!

Similarly, there's no such thing as "an ideal gas"

It's almost as if they suspect everyone else is similarly, a criminal.

I would want today's bread, but I don't think this is really the same as your first mowing comment. If I bought bread today, I would expect the cost of bread I buy next week to be the same. If costs remain constant, it should be s

You're assuming your questions are even answerable in the context you're providing. We fundamentally do not agree on definitions. "Is useful to me" is subjective.

Is labor worth anything? How do you find out? How do you define "value"? We can continue this if you like, but I would be lying if I said I wasn't leading you somewhere...

> every government choice is a tax I realize you have interpreted my comment as suggesting this, but that really wasn't my intent. It was really just about tax vs spend, and if they differ.
82.
by dekken_ 2y ago
Tax is a cost. If a government spends more than it takes in, in taxation, the difference has to come from somewhere, and invariably, it comes via inflation. The choice to spend more than the governemnt has, is a choice, and is imposed, so i

> Work done today is worth more than work done in the past. This is not provable.

by dekken_ 2y ago
No, it's not metaphorical. If in January, you can buy something for $1, then in February because of inflation it becomes $1.10, that's a 10% tax increase. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NgSqZKx0mNI

Am I talking about those people? You're conflating things that are empirically verifiable with things that are not.

The fact that there is even a term like "Climate change denial", means that it feasible to deny "the science" (science is about doubt), because the climate scientists actually can't prove anything, fundamentally. Th
