"I never correct anything and I never go back to what I have written, except to the foot of the last page to see where I have got to." I think this is tough to do, but a good idea. And everyone says how important is the routine.

>> It’s important to point out, though, that the experiment comes with all kinds of caveats. The wormholes the group were simulating, and indeed, even the holographic principle on which they’re based, exist in a hypothetical kind of u

AdS == Anti de Sitter space == A universe with nothing in it. These physicists assume a universe with nothing in it, then populate it with physicists and quantum computers and wormholes. This is like claiming to have the most beatiful diffe

The concept of wormholes, it appears to me, is a direct product of the concept of spacetime. Not space. Not time. But a different mathematical entity called spacetime. But when I read the article I see that the actual experiment is done in

This particular parasite has the effect described in the article. But our gut is full of other species of so-called "parasites" who live in harmony with the host. Human body is a symbiotic organism. So, if this parasite, Toxoplasm

I wonder if physicists are confusing themselves by corrupting well-defined English words like particle and spin and turning them into undefined physics jargon. Quantum particles are not spinning because in physics a particle does not mean a
