Except that ISPs get to decide routing. Nothing stops them routing traffic through a State that allows metered data delivery. You don't get a say in the rules the ISP play by.
Now, how we define "exist" is a bit more ambiguous. I rather like the idea that the physical universe is emergent and a product of mathematics. "Exist" in this sense still means physical, it just means we have to be cautious if we examine closer than that.
I also like M-Theory, where electrons are the protrusion of a single membrane into 4D spacetime. Again, the electrons still physically exist, but individual electrons don't exist in isolation.
In QM, gravity is transmitted by gravitons. It is key to the theory that all forces are handled by particle exchange.
There is no quantum gravity theory, per second, only the requirement of gravitons as a particle grouped with other leptons. This is part of the standard model. You will find gravitons in the particle zoo.
Well, the more accurate the observation, the greater the energy you put in and so the greater the error you create.
Relativistically, the energy will depend on the actual relative velocity of the observer to the observed. So in order to calculate the energy and thus the error, you need the velocity. You can probably derive the value, since you know the range of possibilities and can get a computer to binary search that range for one where all the values match observation.
That's before factoring in the gravity of the gear actually making the measurements. That's more complex, but you know the mass (which is static) and the energy (normally irrelevant, but we're talking about a chaotic system - pendulums are chaotic, a very large number of cycles and extreme precision, so energy may well matter). Still, you can measure the values and then calculate the effect.
The other relativistic effect is the relativistic mass of the objects the pendulum is moving between.
Yes, all these things can be calculated. Just don't use an Intel processor. You will certainly need the multiprecision libraries, though, as there are no maths processors capable of handling mantisas of the range needed.
But calculating them isn't a matter of an instantaneous value, the velocity changes over time non-linearly and has perturbations as noted above. So you've got to simulate enough slices of time to smooth everything out. Because it's chaotic, you can't be certain you've succeeded, but you can probably get good enough.
So, yes, everything can be calculated, although it's not trivial.
The problem for a lot of physicists is that then you're looking at a simulation of the experiment and not the experiment itself.
I have no problem with a grand unified theory. I have a problem with it being based on the electron, which exhibits none of the behaviour you describe.
The average friction has to be zero, because the quantum foam averages for any value over any scale to zero. The particles in it are a product of statistical noise.
They are connected to the Internet, that's part of the problem. The DOJ doesn't even know what the problem is. The other part of the problem is violation of Rainbow Series.
In the case of government computers, computer misuse involves breaking and entering government furnished equipment (GFE).
However, if the computer had been properly secured to Orange Book standards, there would be no risks. The government was extremely stupid in choosing to have no standards.
We know that crimes by Republicans (such as Judge Aleppo) get blanket pardons on conviction or pressure not to let it go to court. The holdout in the Manafort trial did so not because of the evidence but to protect their side. The Republicans in SCOTUS backed the cake shop not because of the Constitution (which backed the claimant) but to back their own.
Minor infractions by any Democrat result in illegal punishments.
Also, they state there may be hidden variables. That means their measurements are fine, but the model is incomplete and so not all necessary measurements were made.
Scientists do this all the time. It's how we discover unknowns, by comparing theory with observation and establishing how they deviate.
I dunno, Slashdot does a lot with cryptographic numbers. There are articles on them regularly. It's just some are ROT13ed into articles about something else.

It makes it easier. Nothing stops ISPs deciding what rules they like and making sure to lower the weights for connections through suitable States.
Someone allows metered connections? Great! Divert traffic through there.
Someone allows redirection and Microsoft want to pay extra? Bounce through there, change Google endpoint to Bing.
All perfectly legal, as the laws don't involve router tables and the changes are made where it's ok to make them.
Except that ISPs get to decide routing. Nothing stops them routing traffic through a State that allows metered data delivery. You don't get a say in the rules the ISP play by.
Actually, they are. Network neutrality, aka telecoms is telecoms whether data or voice, allows engineers to focus on service rather than politics.
Surely it should be to Tom Kilburn or F.C. (Freddie) Williams, as the Manchester SSEM had the first true instruction set.
Gravitons are not affected by the Higgs field, and gravitons wouldn't emit gravitons so can't be affected by gravity themselves.
They have mass, energy, spin, charge.

I think secondary school/high school textbooks do teach it as decay, using very ambiguous language.

Easy solution.
Put the Rainbow Series into law for government computers, where it isn't already.
Computer misuse is not defined by connectivity.
In the case of government computers, computer misuse involves breaking and entering government furnished equipment (GFE).
However, if the computer had been properly secured to Orange Book standards, there would be no risks. The government was extremely stupid in choosing to have no standards.
Since there is an Internet connection, go back three squares and miss a turn.
Since they are connected to the Internet, and yet the government claims the law doesn't apply, not having a reason changes nothing.
Of course.

I know people who own trees grown from cuttings from Newton's.
I've stayed in one of Newton's country houses. Whoever did the dendro date for the fireplace did a horrible job.
Tea is from China and Tea is the drink of the gods, second only to mead.

Experimental error is perfectly acceptable. It just has to be stated. Which it is.
There is no ether.
Think quantum gravity.
Gravity is the exchange of particles between two particles.
If you double the particles, you double the exchanges. Scaling.
Where's the shock?
If you prefer relativity, mass bends space. Space can be thought of as having elasticity, although that's not quite right.
Then it's just a matter of applying Hooke's Law. Double the mass, double the bending. Again, scaling.
I don't see coincidence, I see cause and effect.

Electrons exist. So do positions. So do all other leptons. This suggests gravitons also exist.
You cannot convert an electron into any other fundamental particle. They explain nothing other than themselves.
If a Grand Unified Theory exists, it will use quantum loops or membranes, not electrons.
