Why so small?

[ste20man]

Hi, this is my first post.

I
am getting more interested in quantum physics but do not have the
intelligence to make any marked contribution. I am on the other hand a
polymath and am experimenting with an idea that crossed my mind late one
night as I dozed to sleep.

I hope you can hear me out as it
would be easy to dismiss me based on past histories. I will only explain
completely honestly what my idea is and then throw myself to the wolves
Perhaps

I
am bi-polar which gives at times amazing amount of creative energy or
on the other side deep depressions(that has happened only once). I have
been taken into mental hospital 6 times in 15 years and have always been
writing equations of varying difficulties / madness' over that time.

I
recently had a Eureka moment(that night). It could be completely mad
but every day I am seeing progress. As far as I can tell nobody knows
where the "center" of anything is.

Why not make this a person? I
intentionally made myself bi-polar "high" and let go of all previously
held beliefs. I essentially became a human placeholder zero. I stood for
nothing, I judged nothing and I only gave opinion on a situation when
someone was forcing their opinions on me. It gave me the time to
evaluate what was important.

My moral values were already set and
I promised only to learn and "believe" what could be proved through
mathematical logic. I judged any statement or conversation given to me
through pure math logic and extracted only truths which were positive,
ignoring the negative.

This was essentially a 35 year old man
embarrassing himself in others eyes as the conversations were strange to
say the least. Still, I stuck to my guns and am still learning pure
truths to this day.

I have done this to have a mental
mathematical model installed like DOS in my mind. I today had the first
conversation that could be considered "in English" that happened to be
with my dad. We saw eye to eye. We have done in the past but this is a
very different kind of meeting. There are no misconceptions in my mind
know. It is merely pure logic and it has made me fast in thought and
comprehension.

Not only this, being bi-polar is a very emotional
time as your nearest and dearest are in pain(somewhat). I think I have
done something that hasn't been done before and this was my aim.

Both
my mother, father and I have become incredibly entangled and in
computing terms i am definitely the CPU and clock. They are increasingly
starting to "think" like I do in terms of pure logic architecture(not
soul, free will or personality).

I have done this by force of
will alone, by refusing all until they gave me the right "answer" I was
after. I understand that this was Pavlovian but I did it in the hope
that when my father or mother took back control we would be increasingly
in synchronization.

Once the basic logical truths were established then each person is running off the same operating system.

I
have been watching collapsing waves and timings that seem exaggerated
or out of the norm. In this way we can go about our daily business' and
come back to share in what is essentially a human bit.

What do
you think of this process? Do you have any further ideas that might
prove we as three bits are affecting the quantum world around us. What
live experiments
could i try that didn't involve digital interference(TV, Internet etc).

How many muons or synapses does it take to bind two people together if you can see what i mean?

Thanks for your ideas, Steven.

Thanks for your ideas, Steven.

You've not really discussed any actual ideas. You seem to be capable of controlling normal people, which is not inherently a bad thing, especially when they pay your room and board, or perhaps if you want to be POTUS or Pope. But so what? What are your ideas? What's a "polymath?"

Hi Steven,

Your post is about many things other than small things, i.e., quantum mechanics. That is OK, but makes it hard for me to know exactly what you expect from me.

 

First, I cannot answer "Why so small." I am an engineer and know a bit of science, by no means an expert, but science cannot answer metaphysical questions such as why. Scientists observe and explain what they observe.

 

If you wish to learn some physics, there are some really good and interesting (imo) videos on youtube. I recommend ones by Leonard Susskind, who is a professor at Stanford, and has worked with Stephen Hawking on black holes, among other things. These lectures have some math, so it helps to know calculus, sets, and linear algebra, but not absolutely necessary. You didn't tell much about your math background, but https://www.khanacademy.org/ has math lessons that might improve your understanding of the Leonard Susskind lectures.

 

There are videos on youtube done by many universities, including MIT, Harvard, and Berkley. The TED Talks videos are also interesting.

 

Another Topic: I had back surgery that left me in continual pain for many years. No pain medication helped. Finally, I began meditating, and over time my pain has abated. Now I am pain free most of the time. This phenomenon is documented in medical journals, it is not just my imagination.

 

The brain is plastic and changes all the time. Moreover, these changes are guided by our thoughts. (See youtube videos on neurology). I do not know, but perhaps a bipolar person can lessen the bad effects of their condition via meditation or self hypnosis.

 

I wish you the very best. A friend of mine was bipolar.

What's a "polymath?"

"....is a person whose expertise spans a significant number of different subject areas". Though I would expect a modern definition to mean someone who has published in peer review journals on more than one branch of science.

 

 

Anyway, I am not sure what ste20man really wants to discuss. If it is why the quantum mechanical scale is small, then I cannot give a clear answer. It just seems to be that way, Planck's constant is what it is.
