Ah yes, there is that other thing I don't see how it (Higgs theory) defines, and that is observer dependencies. The more you bury it in weird mathematical notions (and notations:), the better it may sound, and the harder it becomes to understand what you really mean. But, if you really think you found a way to make something work, you should at least give it the same time as it took you to get that idea, to explain it as logical and simple as you can. Einstein succeeded, and his theory is weirder than most
So why can't you?

Read me right now
I enjoy relativity, and I think the parts I understand to be correct. Doesn't mean I can explain the stress energy tensor 'works' though, even though it do, 'work' I mean. That's a mathematical description that I keep losing myself in, or maybe I'm just too lazy for it.
But I don't find the Higgs to address relativity, only accelerations.

Sort of a sign of the times isn't it, or humanity maybe? Higgs gets a Nobel prize for his idea, Einstein never got one for his theory of relativity. Higgs particles becomes, at best, a sub discipline of relativity, needed from a discrete bits theory of a universe. But a discrete bits theory does not state where those discrete bits come from, neither how they organize themselves into dimensions, they instead define them from a container, be it how many dimensions you want..

Then again, Higgs and Einstein isn't that separated in time. There are some decades between them, and Higgs shaped his theory wanting to incorporate relativity in it as I understands it. and the discrete bits theory of a container universe isn't that different from the way Einstein defined the moon, there even when I look away. It's when you use local definitions that the container model becomes really questionable, observer dependencies, and how to think of those, real or not? Defining it from a background of constants, locally equivalent, a container model stops making sense. But 'c' and relativity still works for you, observer dependencies works perfectly, but a Higgs field need to be defined.

And then the most confusing part of it all
You measure locally, you observe your universe locally. We expect differently made, equivalent, repeatable experiments to define it, and we find this idea to work. That makes for the foundation of physics. Then comes 'c', and introduce locality. But we don't question repeatable experiments, and why they still work? Neither do we question what constants becomes, in a universe always defined locally. How they can exist, from what frame of reference.
What I like to think of as, back to fundamentals.

Also, there is a universe of difference between discrete bits, and a universe existing through 'frames of reference' interacting. I too would like to be able to define one frame of reference, 'bits' of a sort, but the closest I seem to get to such a frame is when using local constants and properties, forming principles equivalent everywhere, leading us to repeatable experiments defining physics.
Einstein didn't define it from 'one bit', as I read it, he defined it from frames of references interactions. You need two frames for a universe, yours relative the one you observe.

been thinking about this idea I got yesterday:) The one that refuse to work out. Inertia becoming gravity under a arrow. It's absolutely lovely
)
And I would like it to work. I can't put it on time dilations and Lorentz contractions though, that's a result of gravity, not a cause of gravity. Shows you the danger of not going to sleep when you should. Sloppy thinking.
I could use time dilations as described from a far observer though, but then I'll go against the definition I use of ones arrow to never change. Because locally 'c' will be 'c' in any uniform motion, and if I define a arrow from 'c' using it as a clock, splitting it in even chunks?

To get that one to work I then have to define it as 'c' being 'c' locally, everywhere, although assuming that from a 'eye of God', a 'global description' every observer will find time dilations, although not locally observable.
Can you imagine what that should mean for one observer, accelerating uniformly and constantly at one Gravity. Let's make two more 'far' observers of the first one. Each one measuring a different velocity relative Earth, going in a same direction as the one accelerating. Both finding the guy accelerating having a different (unique) time dilation and Lorentz contraction, none agreeing on the others findings without a Lorentz transformation. Assuming that time is the culprit also makes you need to define it from some 'objective definition'. Using locality I don't see how to do that, using a far observer I have to define which one that would be 'objective'.

What I need to make this make sense would then be something like a 'global time', a 'hidden variable' not resting on what observers, or Earth, define for this guy accelerating in form of time dilations. Something like a Lorentz transformation, keeping that 'global time'.

But it would not be your local time keeping, so I can't use a locally defined 'sheet of constants' for it. Neither can it be the other observer definitions of a time dilation and Lorentz contraction. And it doesn't matter what type of 'motion' they are in, making a whole universe able to give that guy accelerating different time dilations and Lorentz contractions.
In other words, it sux, badly
And I still like it.
It seems right.

And it won't help to define a arrow as 'non existent' either, as far as I see. What you have, assuming that inertia becomes a gravity under a arrow, is just a arrow

I could possibly use something in where certain interactions, as entanglements are 'time less'? Allowing gravity to become one, similar to Mach principle, but now of a 'infinite speed', instead defining it as some Jungian 'gestalt'? In where gravity is what join a universe, 'c' being meaningful communication, relating 'gravity' to something like a entanglement?
Weirder and weirder, what would that make of a gravitational wave coming from a binary star, spinning around each other?

Then, using that nomenclature, a gravitational wave does not exist, or it becomes a 'meaningful information', as it obey 'c'.

How about this then.
Assume that light is non propagating. Use that sheet, paint a pattern of instants, each representing a static 'picture' of a universe on it. Then imagine the sheet to be exchanged at 'c', each instant existing let's say, one Plank time.
That gives us something similar to a gestalt. Assume this direction of exchange to be in one unmeasurable direction we call 'global time'.
Then introduce a 'side way' universe, defined by equivalent local arrows. In where we define gravity as acting and being acted on by all mass. Two ways.

And it seems to fit a description in where singular bit quanta becomes a very tricky proposition, where frames of reference must be defined as a observer, relative what he observes, I think?

Although
This definition leaves us to ponder what meaning consciousness will have in it. It gives us structures, from simplicity to complexity, that have very little to do with a definition of 'c', even though it comes from it. On the other tentacle, we already have those structures, anyway.

Then we have a ground beat, we call 'c'. On that beat we have our local interpretations, defined from this ground beat.

Well, possibly?

The 'forces' I define should then be a result of my definition of what I can measure, while the universe at large will be instants flickering at 'c', leaving me unable to measure it.

Very theoretical that one, no way I see to prove it. It would be cool if it was provable though. as I could define it as a result of 'free will', I mean, there isn't really a need for a static gestalt to prove itself, is there? Unless we introduce something like a consciousness in it, feeling that need.
