By what mechanism do they expect stresses in rocks to produce electric fields?

All of this, and MORE can be explained by the Electric Universe Theory. Any gaps in EUT are filled in by TIMECUBE.

It's been a long time since I've visited that site. Looks like they've had a major redesign.

I used block letters so there could be no doubt. You know?

I know someone else who likes to randomly switch into block letters...

Here is your perfect website.

Sometimes you get what you pay for.

I worked for a few years at a Max Planck Institute (not the same one as Jobb), and I remember he sent occasionally racist rants to all email recipients in all institutes, in which he lamented that the foreigners were taking his job. The rants were so logically inconsistent they looked like a crossing of Time Cube and the Unabomber Manifesto.

More than racist, which he is, the guy is psychologically unstable; the archetypal mad scientist.

Yeah yeah, earth is flat, rides on turtles, and you make even less sense than the timecube guy. Go smoke another one and play with your firmament.

The 'time' obviously follows a circle, which has 360 degrees.

But time is actually of a cubic nature!

You are full of shit, because EARTH HAS 4 CORNER SIMULTANEOUS 4-DAY TIME CUBE

http://www.timecube.com/

God already told us about the 4 corners of the earth

Four corners?

In 1884, meridian time personnel met
  in Washington to change Earth time.
First words said was that only 1 day
could be used on Earth to not change
  the 1 day bible. So they applied the 1
day and ignored the other 3 days.
The bible time was wrong then and it
  proved wrong today. This a major lie
    has so much evil feed from it's wrong.
No man on Earth has no belly-button,
    it proves every believer on Earth a liar.

If it wasn't for the lack of pseudocode, I'd swear APK writes for timecube http://www.timecube.com/

Watches are a tool of the oppressor.
Do you see dolphins wearing digital watches? NO. Because the concept of Time is unnatural.

Don't confuse the issue with your pesky linear time. I see your very username itself is stuck in opposite brain wrongthinking forward modes.

As to why being irrelevant to a moral judgment, you cannot prove bigotry without why.

Yes you can. The study showed that people consider women with equal qualifications as on average less competent. I don't have to know why they do that in order to know that's what they do. That is basically the textbook definition of bigotry.

You said it was almost entirely because they lived longer.

Go ahead. You will see I said "the single biggest factor", which is quite different from "almost entirely". Which is the single biggest number in this list: 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1. What is the sum?

Anyway red herrings abound. If people were making the "rational economic choice" based on healthcare costs, then the pay difference would be the difference in monthly costs, which will of course exclude any post-retirement costs. The difference as you see for yourself is substantially larger than that.

You apparently don't know what prejudice means: ""Prejudice is prejudgment, or forming an opinion before becoming aware of the relevant facts of a case. "" Without the why you can't prove prejudice.

But we know the relevant facts: the CVs were constructed to be identical. The only difference was the gender. Therefore the only cause of different offers, salaries, mentoring and perception of competence was down to a gender differences.

"Sexism or gender discrimination is prejudice or discrimination based on a person's sex or gender."

As to gene ray, I am unfamiliar with that individual. Provide a link at your convenience.

As to your quotation at the bottom, that appears to be a speculation and not something derived by actually asking anyone. Thus their statement at that portion of the study is no more credible then any of your own speculations.

Firstly, asking people only works if the biases are conscious. Secondly, I like how you blandly state without having actually looked into any of it that it absoloutely must be a bogus result. Included in your dismissal is a dismissal of a well established and prefectly well respected statistical technique.

I shall add "maths is wrong" to your entertaining list of claims!

Again, has anyone checked this thing? I could find no evidence of anyone going over its claims, methodology, data... anything.

Apart from being in a peer reviewed journal, you mean?

How many studies have we seen come out that have later been found to be crap?

Oh this is precious! So since you're unable to actually discount the article on its merits, your latest claim is "other studies have been crap so this one must be too!" I like how the possibility of it being correct is not an option :)

You are trying to damn pretty much all of academia on the grounds of ONE FUCKING STUDY.

I'm really not sure where on earth you got that from.

All I've done is disprove your claim that institutional sexism does not exist.

You are the one inferring that I'm trying to damn pretty much all of academia, not I. It is interesting that you keep on using emotional terms to dismiss a study, when the logical arguments have been exhausted. Tell me, why are you so emotionally invested in whether or not sexism exists?

Wow. You've managed to out-cube Time-cube.

No, but you can host your own copy of http://timecube.com/

If it wasn't for the Internet, I'd never have found out about the time-cube and become a Cubist.

http://www.timecube.com/

Does Gene Ray have a teenaged / twenty-something relative somewhere that's "into computers"? If so, I think he could be your troll. :-P

I was about to disagree with him as well, because the quality of the average journalist is actually quite low, and there are a lot of bloggers who do better.

Unfortunately for every lousy journalist, there is a blogger who is even worse, telling you how to avoid rabies with homeopathic self-brain lobotomy or something. Seriously, the quality level of bloggers can get really bad.

I think you should spend more time working on your own website

> Does time go back and forth? I don't know.

Or it could be both :-)

The classic fallacy of Scientists is duality. Matter behaving as _both_ a wave AND particle is the best proof that:

One truth does not negate another truth

But to answer your question, Time is multi-dimensional. It depends on which level you are talking about ...

From our human, biological perspective / perception time is linear (male) (to prevent insanity.) The higher reality is that time flows in all directions (female) (non-linear) BUT one hasn't _experienced_ it all yet.

The Buddhists would say "There is only Now; the past, present and future are all Allusions" and they would partially be correct.

> "MAYBE THERE'S JUST ONE ELECTRON!" Feynman once shouted.

Indeed that is one possibility. That would explain the "Spooky Action From a Distance". It is the _same_ photon, just appearing in different phases at a different time/space.

That's the greatest thing about Feynman. He always kept an open mind. He was never a pseudo-skeptic. If he didn't know, he was motivated to suspend judgement until he knew more.

Modern science has become "Cargo Cult" thinking.

> because if there were significant amounts of antimatter in the Universe, we would expect there to be lots of 0.511 MeV gamma rays in the cosmic radiation but there is not.

First, the problem is we don't _know_ how much antimatter there is. We are making assumptions about 99.99999% of the universe based on less then %0.0000001 of what we can directly measure.

Second, how do you reckon that?

-- The question is not "Does extraterrestrial life exist?" but "Why the hell do we look so similar??" News in 2024.

Are you the Time Cube guy?

Here. this should help a bit.

Cutting the day into 4 pieces?

Sssshuuuutuuuup. You'll awaken the mummified corpse of Gene Ray.

Actually, he seems to have moved a little beyond harmless eccentricity:

Children will be blessed for Killing Of Educated Adults Who Ignore 4 Simultaneous Days Same Earth Rotation.

Adults Eat Teenagers Alive, No Record Of Their Death.

All that inappropriate capitalisation. It's like reading Slashdot headli-

Oh. My. God. He's here.

have you been reading too much TimeCube lately?

I object on the basis that your alternate explanations do not #include belly button logic.

Slashdot is clearly not the place for you. Go here instead, it's more for people like you: http://www.timecube.com/

I know yours was more on-topic, but you wanted an example of a whacko theory on a website and you didn't go for this guy?

I've seen that movie. It was really a wormhole!

And in the wormhole lived a groundhog. And if it was cloudy when he emerged...

Then the largest atom smashing experiment in the world will be used to bring about a dystopian future by using a global spy network to discover the phone activated microwave invented by Rintaro Okabe, causing his poor childhood friend to die over and over thousands of times before the self proclaimed Mad Scientist meets the real John Titor and re-un-gets an old 80's PC and almost correctly sets his Nixie-tube clock using the instructional belly-button logic from TimeCube.com... Thank the gods, the frakkin' site exists! Whew.

If not for that wonderful worm-filled groundhog -- A basement dweller would have ventured from lair weeks earlier and become a depraved scriptwriter causing that damn disastrous 80's PC to star as an extra in a Weirdly Scientific show instead of it being safely destroyed. Thankfully it won't wind up summoning Sentient Space Ducks, battling Bonsai Buckaroos, and eventually resulting in a so-called Doctor helping crash a sock-hop reachable only from 1985 at 88 mph using 1.21 Jiggawats -- I mean really, "Jiggawats"? Is that a racial slur metric?! I wouldn't want to live in such a world.

Wait, unless some pessimistic news anchor went all sappy, so all that hell has happened... then God is now loose as a particle among us, while the NSA builds the spy network anyway, and the shock doctrine dystopia will be here with or without the miniature Kerr black holes. In which case, the Dalek will be here shortly to retrieve their long lost PC from its display and destroy this planet just for grins... So our only hope then would be for one of the ACTUAL Doctors to step out of a blue police box -- Preferably before faux Klingons arrive and scare everyone but the insatiable sushi-loving Japanese into ending whaling.... That doesn't turn out well for anyone except the dolphins.

Unless the dolphins aren't on speaking terms with men, which means they aren't real dolphins and they've tasked the pan-dimensional mice to create a gigantic quantum computer where this has all happened before, and our reality exists in a simulated multiversity where everything is an endless super position of itself unless you look at it closely (to save CPU), and Schroedinger's Cats rule the world via traffic jamming cute subliminal messages down every information superhighway. Hmm, well if that were the case, then screw it all, because being a human copper-top battery watching all that strife as TV re-runs sure as hell beats gruel, and tribal techno dance parties.

I seem to remember there being a simple test for this sort of thing involving a simple self referential quantum entangled ironic pairing... If I could just remember how it goes. Has something to do with recursive Unix directory structures, I believe. Just wait, it'll come to me... Ah yes.

...!

CRAP! I'm on the wrong side of the irony, again. You wouldn't happen to know of any descriptions of ring or disk shaped worlds about? If not, it might not be to late to try again.

Certainly you wouldn't want to educate them even stupider, as we all know that our dear planet is in fact a CUBE

That nonsense you spouted sounded suspiciously like this -- http://timecube.com/

Can we get something more definite than that? I mean if the submitter doesn't know, and it sounds like he doesn't, why even say anything.

it means they can finally build a lattice for the TimeCube. http://www.timecube.com/

He also found that the crystals were cubes.

The full paper is available on the researcher's website: http://timecube.com/

Time crystals, if they exist, will provide us with the necessary key material to build the time cube.

One does not simply censor 4 SIMULTANEOUS posts.

Don't forget the Time Cube!

In the 1600's-early 1700's they get Newton.
In the 1900's-early 2000's we get this guy?
I feel cheated.

Automatically?

I think: "TIME CUBE"!

Has anyone done this?

I think so

And yet you are engaging in free speech too. Although I must say, instead of convincing me, you are making me smile.

My speech would have more effect if I would have to ignore, or find ways to go around bans. As it's evident now, it has only slightly more effect than timecube despite all the worthless "freedom".

Well, at least snow and ice definitely don't have some of the highest Albedo values among terrestrial surface coverings,

It's a liberal consipracy that most ice is white---that's the color of surrender and what liberals want you to believe. Have you ever been to the poles to check? No, so stop believeing the propaganda and get the facts. And don't come back whining to me until you've read all of that primary source.

While there may be two sides to every story, I do not believe that they should be presented equally. I would expect someone who insists that the time is a cube to be laughed out of any rational discussion. Equally, I would expect someone who insists that our patent system is the "envy of the world" and that increasing the prevalence of lawsuits are evidence of a well-functioning patent system to be laughed at.

If you're using phrases like 'time fluxuation' you're well on the way to making one of those websites with ground breaking post Einstein theories that are mysteriously ignored by The Cabal of conventional physicists.

It's from the Time Cube website. Ancient trolling.

Oh, that explains quite a lot. I still don't get the point, though, but alas, maybe I'm just not mentally unstable enough! :)

It's from the Time Cube website. Ancient trolling.

Time is a remarkably poorly defined concept in the deeper levels of physics, even less understood than gravity.

Yes, but I was referring to http://www.timecube.com/

I think the big difference between you and me is that you seem to find it completely unacceptable that anyone be wrong.

Depends what you mean by wrong and depends what you mean by unacceptable.

People are allowed to be wrong, and I would advocate no law against that. In that way, I accept them. There are also degrees of wrong: I'm vastly more accepting of people believe that the earth is an ellipsoid than people who believe the earth is flat (http://hermiene.net/essays-trans/relativity_of_wrong.html).

Perspectives can only come in to play when something is up for debate. For example, I love arguing with roman_mir about the benefits of the free market. I think he's wrong, and he thinks I'm wrong, but those are both perspectives, because neither of our opinions could be considered to be objective fact. It doesn't stop me feeling he's very wrong and arguing loudly though.

'd like the power to disagree with something that people say is objectively true, because people can be wrong about objectiveness.

Well, that's OK. Whether something can be regarded as objectively true _may_ be up for debate.

However there are plenty of emperical, objective facts. For example whether the earth is flat or not. Refusing to acknowledge them isn't IMO a perspective, it's ignorance or stupidity.

That's "acceptable" inasmuch as I feel they should be allowed to live their ignorance/stupidity filled lives in peace if they wish to and if they wish to remain ignorant. But they shouldn't expect any respect or worse reverence for it.

Oh wow, I never thought I would see someone link to Timecube
I once read through that entire site just to understand what the writer was talking about. I think by the time I was able to wrap my head around it, it had jacked up my world view, and I had to spend a day watching Youtube videos of cats to get back to normal.

Everyone knows the time crystals have a 4-sided shape.

why not build a time cube?

i know of a distinguished scientist who has spoken at numerous universities, including MIT, on his groundbreaking work in this area:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_Cube#Public_reaction

note: if you visit http://timecube.com/ for the first time in a decade, like i just did, you discover that gene ray has been experimenting with javascript, but i don't think he got the effect he was looking for. i think he is trying to profit from clicks, but i think he mangled the code and you get a page redirect whenever you try to load his site. i guess deep knowledge of time cubez does not translate into mad html skillz

The importance of the big bang isn't so much that it created the universe or matter. the real importance is that it made it move.

I agree there is a lack of understanding of motion, but your kook has it more wrong than most. there are a lot of issues with his argument, but if you really read it you will see he doesn't really even believe in a truly discrete universe. more like a continuous universe with dimples the particles like to rest in. his explanation that particles need to accelerate and decelerate to jump between discrete locations is laughable and shows that he is really just trying to extrapolate his idea of a discrete universe to a continues universe. which brings us back to the infinite regression you seem to be so against. his idea of there only being acceleration just plain doesn't work.

please explain how a continues universe leads to infinite regression? and what is wrong with infinite regression anyway?

oh look i can post blogs from random kooks also, just because they are on the internet doesn't make it a valid source, or even make sense...

At first I wondered why someone called you a retard. Then I read your blog. I think the whole universe is just a little bit dumber since you wrote it.

No you don't understand! Now I've read that, I've been deeply enlightned. Don't you see it? The world is a 4-D lattice. That meshes so prefectly with the idea of a time cube, which could only work if the universe was a cubic lattice.

Once the ivory tower pyhsicists are ejected when the revolution comes, we will finally be able to get FTL travel and unlimited free energy. Obviously you're so locked into the status quo being propagated that you can't see how biased you've become. I sent my treatise on this to Nature, Science, New Scientist and Scientific American. Naturally such a piece could not get past "peer" review becuase it is not sent out to my peers, but to my "peers" who are ivory tower types so invested in promoting and pushing the liberal-fundementalist manifesto that they would refuse to acept even the possibility that they are fools and so are willfuly blind to upstarts from outside who will overturn their cushy jobs and cast them out onto the street where they belong.

Naturally, the liberal-fnudementalist propaganda has infested the government and such instutuins such as the patent office as my machine based on magnets and heat pumps and lots of springs (I wont tell you the details since the liberalist-mideast oil cartel wishes to suppress this) to tap into the energy grid was rejected from the patent office for being a perpetual motion machine. Which is typical liberal propaganda as there is no such thing, but it does extract unlimited energy from the grid. The free market will eventually succeed where the liberal-communist-oil-energy-fundemtnealists has failed, but only eventually. I am currently seeking investment from individuals and companies wo understand the status quo and who wish t be part of a briter future with the ivory towers burned. So, I a currently seeking investment in this revolutionary technology. Because of the libero-communo consipracy poses a real danger to this, I will aturally invest 50% of raised funds in armaments to defend my compound in rural Montana in order to protect your investment.
