You are welcome to listen in as I "explain things scientific". I have had great fun with lasers, robots and absorbing Quantum Physics. Now as a classroom teacher, laid low by heart surgery its time t... more

September 04, 2019Thomas JeffesonA quite amazing story. He was really a practical philosopher. It is so cool how he came up with the text for the declaration of independence. There is so much amazing luck happening here . So many contradictions. MP4 recording MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element....more0minPlay
September 02, 2019Negative Review of Alexander HamiltonIf there is one thing the world has learnt is to try and avoid annoying the US. So it with this in mind that truth has really got the better of me and I have to admit I did not like what I heard. I don't think that was an issue with the writers. "Oh, what about the all important Australian demographic". So all said and done, I thought he was a pretty morally reprehensible character and I found the lyrics "No one was in the room when it happened" would be appropriate for a painting falling down. Sorry it really didn't work for me. MP4 recording MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element....more0minPlay
September 02, 2019Recollections of a New Scientist Issue_It may seem dumb but I really have to train my memory by reading and having detailed recall. So these are the articles I read, most of it is pretty low quality science, although the general side bits of information are really pretty essential knowing.

September 02, 2019Recollections of YouTubeSo very hard for me to recall image after image of cool science. It is all going in but the recall on command is high. The hydrogen bomb egg is just awesome. I cant wait to try the exploding sugar in hot water. It seems so wrong as people's coffee doesn't explode when they heap in those calories. The idea that spark plug ceramic which I think is zirconium will shatter tempered glass is just mind blowing. Sorry, you can see it, but I talk about it.

August 30, 2019Information Theory for QMThis August 24 New Scientist article is light on detail- there might be a theory if we look elsewhere. I think there is something on the idea of a sky of events passing through your now. It is clear that there is a fundamental pixel size of information expressed by Planck's constant. The time integral of the Lagrangian is the action and I feel that this in someway goes to answer why this is so. Perhaps I was not cluey enough to see the proof for why the systems obey this law of selecting the lowest value of line integral. The devil for entanglement is in the detail. You need the key to add to your random data that you measure to find the faster than light message. Say you are in the nearest star some 4 light years away, and some genius has two years earlier set up an twin laser beam of entangled photons moving from the centre. You want to have a faster than light conversation via the spooky action at a distance channels so you take measurements of your photon for circular polarization. If you don't have a beam of photons of randomized polarization there is nothing for you to measure. Now if you measure linear circular in a from of Morse code, the person back homes results just measuring circular polarization will still be random, but if the save their information for four years they can get your results that you have sent them and confirm that you cant break the laws of quantum mechanics and determine exactly two conjugate variables. However you could also cut out alot of complexity and just send your message. There is lots of interesting things you can do because you can only send information by this method once, and if you have an agreed signal that you transmit and it doesn't get through you know someone has been snooping on it. However you can forget about moving information faster than the speed of light. Very long winded but I hope this helps.

August 30, 2019What's happening with RehabThis is a story (on going) of rehab from barely being able to string thoughts together, through just podcasting and then building software and looking at new horizons.
