"Not to mention extremely bloated requirements. Jobs in this area are unpleasant, and too many of them require you to contract for 6 months first. Nothing like quiting your current fulltime job for a contract position."
I just finished 6 month contract at a place and got hired full time. I took the chance after leaving a 9 year gig for a new place 10 minutes from my house with a much better work environment. Working with respectful sincere people is worth taking the hit of a 6 month or year contract IMHO.
So then we are talking about a thing having two properties and/or being in multiple states at once not actually being in two places at once? This would make more sense then given how we measure with force levels like heat, mass etc. plus isn't there a law about things and mass not occupying the same space at the same time?
As for the rest of the scientific community agreeing on something I don't put much stock in that since the earth was flat and the center of the universe before it wasn't.
In the news just recently we had a south Korean doctor faking stuff relating to cloning/stem cells and isn't there still much debate amoung scientists in physics over this very issue about quantum mechanics vs classic views?
"I guess the whole point of this was to show that the speed of light DOES change in differnt materials. It is not bouncing back and forth like the parent would have you believe. And yes, I note that since index of refraction (n) is between 1 and 0 and since C/n is always >= C in this case, it means that the PHASE velocity of light exceeds C. But the group velocity never does and Ng is always >=1. The group velocity is the part of the light that may carry information. It's the part you would see, so its speed is the one that can't exceed C w/o killing causality."
This is the kind of stuff I just don't believe. In one sentence you say the speed changes yet is constant to me. I'm talking about beyond the realm of perception where speed and time are perception of change that math dotrine defining absolutes strike me as subjective. The math is beatiful and I wish I were more fluent but there just seem to be too many holes in the whole black hole/time travel/speed of light/magical cat line of thought to sit well with me. We have no problem saying that Santa Clause isn't real but tell that to a child who believes. Oh and I accept that I may just be not smart enough to get it but that doesn't change the fact that I don't get it and I refuse just to accept it on blind faith by the magic number men.
"Accepting != Excepting" ack sorry about that I was typing fast at work.
My point about the Cat and other paradox that bother me with this whole subject is that there is no example that I know of such as a real life cat that is alive and dead. There is no example that I know of that shows stairs going up and down at the same time.. etc.. etc. It only seems to be where we can't see that the crazy stuff happens. With everything else we can explain and quantify and given enough time and information, predict. The described particle experiments are so full of holes that the explanations are IMHO questionable at best. I know many people have spent loads of time learning and preaching this stuff and some make a living at it so vested interests are also a part. IMHO again you can have a thing and its opposite but they are not the same thing. They are a thing and its opposite not the same thing in two places at once.
So then the speed of light in vacuum isn't necessarily 186000 mps and depends even in a vacuum devoid of particles as we know it on what things are happening around it. What I was trying to say earlier is that we speak of the speed of light in a vacuum like its a static value when we've shown that it is variable so the math that people use to base quantum craziness is flawed.
My problem with all of these applications of mathematics to the observable is that there exists no proof or observable example of paradox outside of the theoretical. It seems to me just the most recent example of our misjudging a thing and excepting as fact until it is proved wrong as has been the case in history time and again.
A true vacuum as in something devoid of forces like gravity etc? We can have light in what we think of as a vacumm but what then of forces and energies like dark etc? Wasn't light held motionless just recently in a vacuum?
And there are monsters under your bed untill you look for them. the cat is dead OR alive not both. Just because you can't measure it doesn't make it so.
How many times do we need to see light travelling at variable speeds to realize that light was the fastest measureable thing at the time but outside influences on its mass etc make it a poor choice for the fastest thing? There are clearly less heavy and less affected things that given circumstances will be faster than light.
I can see your argument a few years back blindly following a corrupt rule of law:
There's no need for negotiations here, because the law is very clear: you may not as a black person vote.
And don't forget the 2 billion stolen by the politicians and other fat cats. The workers will be making minimum wage despite the immense amount of money.
I just came from a place (TrippLite) that treats it's employees this way stacking them and packing them. Except for a select pamperd few TrippLite treats people like disposable napkins and the empoloyees know it and do the minimal amount of work to get by and the product shows it with huge return rates and customer dissatisfaction. Now the place I'm currently at treats people with respect and except for a select few people excel and try to do what's best for the company. The work loads and output from people are much better and higher. It's not just the lack of space but a general disregard for dignity which people can sense when you stack them like logs and have double standards.
If the government told you to jump off a cliff or chop your own hand off would you? No of course not and even if they made a law saying that all left handers must chop off their left hands and become righties you still wouldn't. When the laws are ridiculous and the governement is out of control people need to stop obeying and change them out even if it's bloody and hard. The US govenment used to be like a block of cheese that had some mold (corruption) on the outside which you could avoid and still enjoy the center. Now the whole thing is moldy and the room smells like feet so something has got to be done, unless of course you enjoy the smell of toe cheese.
The problem with the conservation line of reasoning is that most people are incapable through inability or unwillingness to follow it and act upon it. Even if some sort of global movement gained momentum like the kyoto protocol there will still be America like entities ruining it for everyone. I think the only way out of this mess is to let the oil run out and for the current system to collapse and be rebuilt. So maybe we should cheer the Hummer drivers on for speeding the change along which will likely lead to a life style more in equilibrium with nature and will likely be more harmonius and pleasant. Farmers and teachers will regain their place as the corner stones of society. Lacality will mean something once again and the sort of greed flaunted brazenly by SUV drivers will be the subject of scorn instead of with adoration as it is today.
My original XBox with mods is working perfectly so I think until they stop making the games for it I will be hanging on to it. The HD game play is slightly attractive but not enough to re-invest a boat load of cash and time into.
It is just so much easier to key log a half asleep non computer literate person than to try and break the gazillion bit encryption schemes available. Its the weakest link that's going to get you every time.

It is already happening to Digg. It's becoming less usefull every day IMO.
There is some trtuh in this list but it is way too angry and insulting to be anything but flamebait. Extremism is the mark of a closed mind.

Another nail in the US economy coffin.

This is just more unprovable ridiculous nonsense. Todays sea monsters.

What question? Questions usually include question marks. He made a sarcastic nasty trolling comment.

Yeah but too much out sourcing and bringing money to other places is making America one of those poor regions.
You can never have too many defenders of freedom and I've never seen a useless defender of freedom.
