SEISMIC SHIFTS. “Between 1905 and 1908 Einstein and Minkowski introduced fundamental changes in our ideas of time and space. In 1911 Rutherford introduced the greatest change in our idea of matter since the time of Democritus.” https://lnkd.in/eNwRzK5J View in LinkedIn

THE ETHER. “What is space made of? This is a question that has puzzled mankind for thousands of years. Before Einstein put forward special relativity, it was generally believed that space is filled with aether.” Extraordinary essay. https://lnkd.in/dATr5iE7 View in LinkedIn

GENETIC PROGRAMMING. “Computer generated machine designs are now being randomly modified and the resulting designs selected on the basis of performance, fitter ones allowed to further mutate, etc.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

UNIVERSE AND ANTIVERSE, “In any case, both universes are almost all photons, or antiphotons which always move outward from the origin, forward and backward in time respectively. So in the STH picture, the U-process overwhelmingly comprises superpositions proceeding away from the origin.” (STH = Symmetrical Time Hypothesis). https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

COMPLEX PROCESSES. “Life appears to result from the amplification of randomly generated improvements, via Darwinian principles of the survival and multiplication of the fittest. The same process of amplification of "success" seems to be true for cultures and economic arrangements.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

ELABORATED. “If, slightly later, almost all the matter in each universe moves outward in time, this would reinforce the bias in the superpositions, and very few backward superpositions should contribute.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

DETERMINISM. “Worse, Einstein's view requires all of time to be absolutely determined, and more and more phenomena seem to be explicable by means of various complexity theories, all of which tend to massively increase any previous indeterminacy.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

AN ANSWER. “Any early R-process would have very little contribution from such backward amplitudes. Perhaps potential time duration of a state vector in Hilbert space is a major determinant of the contributing amplitudes to the R-process. The universe is certainly full of lots of old rocks, old gas and even older light.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

BLOCK TIME VS COMPLEXITY. “These influences can be grouped as: the worldlines of the totality of the past working via broadly deterministic physical laws, chaotic systems, self organizing criticality (sand pile collapse, earthquakes), quantum uncertainty, and randomness. Four of the five items in this list do not favor Einstein's block time picture.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn
