I mean, an anti-nothing worth distinguishing from the usual nothing? 5 minutes ago, purpledolly79 said: Just make sure you stand for the judge, they really don't like that 😁 Always do.

In what way? I have two dogs. They are very good to people. But not between themselves. Fortunately, my house layout allows for an easy separation. So, one is a king of front yard, and the other of backyard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joigus Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 1 hour ago, Genady said: In what way? In the short term, yes. I've got friends who trusted me with their dog every now and then when they were away. I'm told I'm pretty good with pets when it's just for, say, a month, or some weeks. In the long term, no. I can't afford taking care of a pet on a daily basis. Having a pet is an enormous responsibility. 16 minutes ago, MigL said: I had two, but one sister passed away 2 years ago. The other is now very lonely and very needy. It seems like it was yesterday when you mentioned it. 43 minutes ago, sethoflagos said: Would monopoles have anti-particles? CPT symmetry suggests they would. When you include magnetic monopoles in Maxwell's equations, you have both electric charges q, and magnetic charges g. For every particle with charge q there must be the corresponding anti-particle of charge -q. So for every particle with magnetic charge g there should be an anti-particle of magnetic charge -g, or else CPT symmetry would not hold. We think CPT symmetry holds. It would be a total re-think of quantum field theory if CPT symmetry failed. For more details, ask @Markus Hanke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a pet is an enormous responsibility. Yes, indeed. For that reason, I didn't have a dog until I retired and moved to the island 20 years ago. Dreamed of having a dog all my life, but always lived and worked in big cities... Now the conditions are perfect, for them and for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markus Hanke Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 12 hours ago, joigus said: It would be a total re-think of quantum field theory if CPT symmetry failed. I don’t think this is even possible at all - CPT symmetry is fundamentally implied by local Lorentz invariance, and vice versa as well. You couldn’t have either symmetry without the other, and I’d think this is quite irrespective of the details of the model involved. 12 hours ago, joigus said: For more details, ask @Markus Hanke. I must admit this made me smile I’m just an ordinary guy who does all this as a hobby, purely as a matter of personal interest…not sure how it came to happen that the real experts are asking me technical questions now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intoscience Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Just to add I have a daughter with special needs who is very unpredictable. She will often walk past my PC and hit buttons as fast as a Ninja! I have to be very careful when on teams calls with work while she is around.
