Ah, ok, well thanks for that.  I have to blame chat gpt for the information.  It clearly stated Hubble saw a redshift and that led me to this forum as It just did not seem right.

New Theories / Re: Spooky action proves extra dimensions?

« on: 28/12/2023 00:23:00 »

Thank you for your insightful comments and questions regarding my previous post on entanglement and "spooky action at a distance." I greatly appreciate your perspective and the opportunity to clarify some key points.

Information Transfer: You're absolutely right to point out that entangled particles don't transmit information in the traditional sense. The phenomenon reveals a pre-existing correlation, not an actual exchange of data. Imagine flipping two coins simultaneously, miles apart. If they always land on opposite sides, it doesn't imply communication, but a fascinating connection. Similarly, entanglement showcases this inherent "coin flip" without any information transfer occurring.

Dimensional Perspective: The proposed alternative dimension wouldn't be a spatial or temporal dimension in the classical sense. Think of it as a hidden network woven into the fabric of our familiar spacetime. Entangled particles, despite physical separation, might be connected through this network, allowing them to "speak" to each other instantaneously.

Timeless Dimension: The suggestion isn't about time being absent, but about a different mode of existence outside its limitations. Think of it like two entangled particles existing in a timeless plane, where distance and the flow of time don't matter. They remain connected in this state, regardless of where they are in our spacetime.

Transcendence of Time: Instead of "impossible things happening," the idea is that a timeless dimension could explain entanglement's behavior within the framework of existing quantum concepts. For example, entangled particles can exhibit superposition, existing in multiple states simultaneously. A timeless dimension could offer a potential explanation for how this simultaneous existence works across vast distances.

Theory vs. Hypothesis: You're correct that calling it a theory at this stage might be premature. It's currently a hypothesis, based on current observations and potential explanations for entanglement. While conclusive evidence is still lacking, it offers a framework for further exploration and experimentation.

I value your critique and hope this clarifies my ideas. Open discussion and critical analysis are crucial for scientific progress, and I appreciate your contribution to refining my understanding of this complex phenomenon. I believe further research in this area holds immense potential for unlocking new perspectives on the nature of our universe and the mysteries of quantum mechanics.

Just Chat! / Re: Cats & Robotic floor cleaners!?

It got to a point where i had to turn the bot upside down in the night as he discovered how to turn it on himself by kneading the buttons!  I got woken up several times in the night to the sound of the cleaner only to find him sitting on it riding around in the dark, lol. 

I got a pet passport for him and his sister, got them both to the UK and found a new home for them both.

Quantum entanglement cannot be used to transmit information and information transfer cannot be achieved faster than the speed of light. Also in the proposed scenario where time is removed how could one define "instantaneous" ?, as this condition is determined by an occurrence happening in zero time.

You rightly highlighted the limitations of quantum entanglement in transmitting information, which aligns with the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics. My intention wasn't to propose using entanglement for communication but rather to explore the underlying framework enabling such phenomena.

Regarding the cosmic speed limit set by the theory of relativity, I acknowledge its significance, and my exploration is more speculative, aiming to consider potential frameworks beyond our current understanding.

Addressing the challenge of defining 'instantaneous' in a timeless scenario is indeed complex. I'll reconsider the terminology used to better align with the absence of time in the proposed framework.

Your feedback is invaluable in refining this exploration, and I appreciate your thoughtful engagement.

Complementary Medicine / Does Cannabis oil Cure some cancers?

« on: 26/01/2013 20:39:58 »

There seems to be a group of people that have had very positive results by using Cannabis oil in the treatment of some cancers.
Does anyone here have an opinion about this?  I know it is an illegal substance in most countries but in America there seems to be reports coming in of it being used successfully to treat patients.  Has there been any serious scientific study into these claims?

Would you be able to do the reverse....   start small and pro-gram for bigger.

I do get fed up with references to the universe rotating!, by definition the universe is all there is so relative to what does it rotate ?.

I thought by definition the Universe is all we know.  One time the Universe was the Milky Way yes? Before that the Solar System and before that Earth!

Have we become so confident and advanced as our predecessors believed that we can state that what we see is all there is?

Find a direction you are interested in.  Get your foot in at the bottom, and work your way up.

That really does make a lot of sense but what if your interested in just about everything!

I am quite happy to provide all of my crazy ideas for free to anyone who wants to make money from them as I don't care.... I would rather that then keep them to myself and not benefit my fellow humankind.  Of course food on the table and somewhere comfortable to sleep is all I ask...  []

If information is wealth then share the wealth AverageJoe... it's what humanity needs in my opinion, less greed and more sharing.  []
