@stephen_wolfram How does a neutrino have mass?

What is the nature of an existence that is experienced entirely outside of time itself? Can a single decision that is made in a state of timelessness simultaneously affect EVERY point in time and space? Groundbreaking reconciliation of creationism with natural science.

At some point could Dr. Wolfram please share his novel physical principles, postulates, equations, predictions, and proofs? After all, the greats, such as Einstein, Dirac, Newton, Galileo, Bohr, and Planck all presented us with novel physical principles, postulates, equations, predictions, and proofs. Why do modern (postmodern) physicists refuse to deal in physical principles, postulates, equations, predictions, and proofs? @WKCosmo @bgreene @EricRWeinstein @phalpern @skdh @LKrauss1 @IAmTimNguyen @TOEwithCurt

He’s so on it! At 50min he starts talking about how our minds only perceive a small sliver of time and we move through that small sliver and progress linearly through time even though the ruliad (all time) is entirely present. I think he’s right and I think in reality, we are on the 2D holographic surface of the black hole and time and space is just pixel resolution on the hologram and our consciousness is tuned to receive information from a specific pixel resolution and (that’s why things that are farther away appear smaller) the future is a larger resolution than we are able to perceive but as the neutrinos are emitted from the black hole and pass through the surface of the hologram the future (bigger) pixels decay into our perception—so time and space is literally pixel resolution on the hologram and we’re generally only capable of perceiving at a specific pixel size, but that leaves open the idea that we could alter our state of consciousness to perceive a different pixel resolution on the hologram which might be how remote viewing is possible or even precognition could be possible. Very cool.

At 1:04 he asks what do we already know that should tell us the discreetness of space the same way heat told us about the discreetness of molecules. The answer is quantum entanglement tells us we live in a holographic 2D space time, the reason Zeilinger’s experiment doesn’t violate non locality even though we could determine the spin of the antiparticle before the speed of light could have reached the antiparticle to tell it what to be is because we live in a holographic 2D spacetime where the SU1 oscillation of energy punches through the hologram in 2 places, forward in time with a charge and spin, and it goes off the hologram and the n punches back through the hologram in another spot going backward in time with the opposite spin and charge—and the energy along the path is uniform but our consciousness only gets information from the hologram so we only see the quantumly entangled particles that are the points of intersection of that energy with the hologram. So the quantumly entangled points are the exit wounds of the energy intersecting with the hologram. Zeilinger didn’t disprove locality because it’s the same energy in two places on the hologram at the same time. And now you know that dark matter is the gravity from the energy in the oscillation that’s “off the hologram” and that’s what we capture in the math with i—that’s the imaginary component. Dark matter is the energy of matter off the hologram and observable matter is the 1/6 of the energy in the oscillation that remains in contact with the hologram. There you go doc, dark matter and quantum entanglement give us evidence of the descritization of space and the holographic nature of space time.

@stephen_wolfram I would watch shit like this but I just don't have time - can someone give a technical tl;dr here? What is his specific claim?

@stephen_wolfram

Time is absolute - a sequence of states of universe - "now". That type of time is described in quantum mechanics. General relativity describes clock tick rate, not time. Clock tick rate depends on energy of particles. Energy of particles depends on local density of matter. Local density of matter is "curved spacetime". Clock tick rate is "time dilation".

@stephen_wolfram So @stephen_wolfram @DrBrianKeating (from a smooth brainer like me) ... prime numbers, is computationally irreducible? Also, if yes, can other irreducible systems be used for encryption? also, if universe is discrete, can increasing the movement "jump" ofAtoms mean teleportation?

@stephen_wolfram It took him 23 minutes to attempt to simplify the definition of time, essentially wasting everyone's time. Clear proof that it does not exist.

At 20:00 I completely agree, but a better context to frame the issue is to consider that we (our consciousness exists on the 2D holographic surface of a black hole universe) and our consciousness receives information from the hologram the same way our brain interprets only electrical signals from our nerves (the brain doesn’t see or hear or touch—it’s locked inside our skull and merely receives information in the form of zaps from our nerves) in the same way our consciousness is literally on the holographic surface of a black hole (but we can’t tell the difference the same way our brain has no idea and doesn’t feel locked inside our skulls), so when he says there is an update and everything changes and we only recognize it when we get an update, he’s 100% right. The hologram is the surface of the black hole and if you peel it off and hang it like a sheet, that’s the exact state of the universe at that moment. And neutrinos are blowing outward through the surface of the black hole (and you can see it in the neutrino map of the Milky Way—bubbles of expanding neutrinos) and when the neutrinos pass through the hologram, it changes the hologram and it’s the changing of the hologram (the update he references) is what we notice and identify as the passage of time. I think everything he’s saying is true, but he’s missing the forest for the trees. Pretty much everything he’s saying is right though—it’s the sequential incremental revision that keeps going (he calls it continual calculations) but it’s not the computations (the incremental holographic/quantum informational updates) that are driving time, it’s the radiation of neutrinos through the black hole surface that drives the passage of time (see the neutrino map of the Milky Way below and all the neutrinos blowing out of the surface of all those black holes) because the neutrinos blowing through the surface that changes the hologram and is what we notice as the passage of time. Because we are anchored to the black hole surface by gravity, we don’t move through time, spacetime (neutrinos) move through us. And because our consciousness must draw energy from the black hole surface, and the black hole surface needs the same energy for the hologram to move—that’s literally why we get tired. Our conscious mind competes with spacetime for the same energy it needs to change the hologram and when we’re awake, time can’t move the hologram as fast because we’re taking some of that energy which is why time passes much slower while we’re awake than when we sleep. And the psychic pressure that is put on our consciousness is the neutrino jam that is trying to bust through the hologram and that’s why we get tired and fall asleep, and when we’re unconscious, time can use the energy we just release and that’s why time seems to move faster when we sleep. Anyway, what he’s saying is correct, but he’s missing kind of the bigger picture.
