The mount of “actual” news is not particularly awe-inspiring today. Been a bitch of a cold week, the scalar project (1 orf 2) is ready to ship out of the lab. But there is a certain “hollowness” to it all that seems less than promising.
A decades-old saying (from when I taught the fine art of Sales): If you don’t have a great steak, sell the sizzle. And to an extent, that’s the sense of things right now: Lots of “sizzle” but a lack of steak, if you will.
Razzle, Dazzle, and Sizzle: The Paradox
You take this morning’s “top stories” – you can smell some smoke, maybe. But like Jerry McGuire said, “Show me the money!”
Gold was down a little. Silver was off a shade, too. Bitcoin almost crested $100K – but not quite. Stocks are trying to make new highs. But the “clouds” are gathering. Nvidia earnings next week. Microsoft claiming a “new state of matter” that touches on what we’ve recently written about and been working on in the lab: domain wall scaling. Which peekaboo’s out from Microsoft makes quantum breakthrough by creating new state of matter.
There are more than just hints. There are (in Masonic terms?) a lot of “rough ashlars” being worked into usable building blocks. Not ready to be laid, maybe, but the work is going on.
Hard stuff to talk about – I tried explaining to one of my (semi-adult) children the other day. “Imagine that there is a “honeycomb” structure all around you, wherever you face. Each of those is a surface of adjoining Domains. These are where the MWI divergences take off into new/other Realities.
What most people do not realize is that there are humongous implications as to what will happen when domain wall scaling is successful in labs. But how many people are thoughtfully drilling this wall face with AI (besides the odd nutter in the woods)?
4. Experimental and Theoretical Implications
Quantum Computation & Domain Walls:
Quantum computations rely on maintaining coherence, and errors in quantum states might correspond to domain wall interactions at the quantum level.
Understanding domain wall-like structures in Hilbert space might lead to better quantum error correction.
Gravitational Considerations:
Some researchers have proposed that gravity might collapse wavefunctions, meaning that domain walls in space-time could play a role in selecting which branches of the wavefunction persist.
Entanglement & Multiverse Connectivity:
If domain walls in quantum space connect different classical realities, this could have implications for quantum communication, suggesting that some quantum branches remain weakly correlated.”
It will do lots of other things, as well. For example, it will open an engineering approach to free energy. Because there is likely to be energy differentials between the various (alt. reality) portals. Connect the innards of one honeycomb to another and now you have a Battery of the Universe, kind of thing.
With domain wall engineering, the path to the “science of woo” will become the successor to AI. Which is cool, and all that. But not as neat as invisibility, space-time jumps, zero flight time communications, and antigravity work.
Thing is, while it’s all really spiffy, it’s also MEGA disruptive. Antigravity alone will change the nature of everthing along our transportation continuum. There goes the rental car business, hotels, aircraft manufacturers, and let’s close down the ports while we’re at it. Because who needs “shipping” when massive cargo movements can be portal-to-portal from a manufacturing site (all robotic then) to the warehouse and distribution center. Missing are trains, trucks, longshore work, and time delays.
With it will come an almost “popcorn” like bursting of all we ever knew. Which will be fun or absolutely terrifying, depending on your outlook on things. Pick your “movie telling Future” early: Man in the High Castle is only one domain wall. Soylent Green, or Logan’s Run or 13 Monkeys are others.
Peeking out of the lab here this week is a new understanding of chemtrails, too. Was there a real breakthrough by the US besides nuclear energy back when we were braining out answers to the Wunderwaffen in WW2 Germany? Did we get something to fly? Is there something to the story circulating today about “Troy-21”? US Air Force pilot reveals encounter with UFO during secret mission over California.
What most on the web – dealing with UAPs and chemtrails – is that when Western (five eyes) satellites roll down the east coast of China, workers on their “ghost cities and ghost ports” go on break so we don’t get to see everything with national technical means.
But “hiding from the birds” is a two-way street. And if we are flight-testing newtech, chemtrails would likely be in the mix as overhead shielding. ” If properly designed, layered dispersions could function like a dynamic, tunable frequency-selective surface (FSS).” Or, at least so claims 2011 Russian patent (54) METHOD OF PROVIDING SW AND USW COMMUNICATION IN CONDITIONS OF HIGH RADIO SIGNAL ABSORPTION. (shortwave and ultrashortwave in patent (21)(22) Application: 2011141136/07, 10.10.2011).
Which only to more questions about chemtrails and HAARP: Are they experiments to perfect command and control for the immediate aftermath of a nuclear exchange when comms will be wonky (call this possibility 1) OR are they to cloak spectral surveillance from satellites while the West tests crafts that transition domain walls being at times invisible and others (possibility 2)?
Whew…our lab work here looks so minuscule and childish in comparison, doesn’t it?
Still, Ebbinghaus is Interesting
We seem headed for an “inside day” in markets to wrap the week. That’s where the highs of Thursday (amnd the lows) are not exceeded. But we are still looking at past behaviors of such “Ebbinghaus pauses – like this one from last Thanksgiving:
Notice the “convergence” in the red circle? Then consider how today’s Futures are pricing today:
There’s a descending series of lines (like the 2-day average_) and our (very old) visual cortex can “see” that as long as we close under the 2 DMA the downside is probably not complete. By our “guessoning” we could slide for several weeks from here. AI /nVidia earnings next week – and proximate to a Bank Settlement day, but then we have don’t have any textbooks look up guidance. This is all from “extracting a surfacing model from a multiplicity of moving averages. Which at Denny’s with a couple of bucks, will get you coffee.
If the NASDAQ powers over 20,057 toward the close, then I’m an idiot tilting at windmills. If we get major league negative into the close, send a note to the Nobel Committee.
More Conventional “News”
I should apologize for citing two stories from the Daily Mail above. But, as went the line from Men In Black, sometimes you go to the tabloids for the real news. For everyone else, we have these:
Getting over ‘hurt puppy’ are we? War in Ukraine: Zelensky says had ‘productive meeting’ with Trump envoy.
But one one site, already reports of pallets of cash and gold being loaded in Ukraine which doxvetails with Zelensky’s best bet is to FLEE Ukraine ‘immediately’, Trump insiders warn – as Putin ‘days away from declaring victory’. If he does, I say Trump ought to hunt him down and take back all the assets because they were for Ukraine not Zelensky.
Rise and Spend! Senate holds a ‘vote-a-rama’ to advance $340 billion budget for Trump’s agenda.
Wait! Does this mean Trump is “going postal?” Trump expected to take control of USPS, fire postal board, officials say. Could have ripples into, oh, Amazon pricing models, for example.
Another one of those “Mengele memo” kinda things? Bombshell Revelation Shows Fauci Authorized $241M for Transgender Surgeries, Experiments on Animals.
What will Patel’s first moves be? Inquiring minds are waiting…FBI Director Kash Patel on X: “I am honored to be confirmed as the ninth Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Thank you to President Trump and Attorney General Bondi for your unwavering confidence and support. The FBI has a storied legacy—from the “G-Men” to safeguarding our nation…
Another storm forming out west as the E. Coast digs out: Winter Storm Warnings and Advisories across the Denver metro area and foothills. Still, only one day until Spring here in East Texas with our last freeze of winter possible tonight. Which means “transplant week” maybe into the lean-to greenhouse.
Around the Ranch: Do-Ology and QFPD
Got up today with the word “Do-ology” rattling between the ears. After looking it up, seems it’s not popular yet. But it was in context of “What is my One Year Goal” now that I’m 76?
Most of the checklist items in life – get married (check, check, check) – have children (check, check, check) – sail offshore a bit (check) – flying your own plane coast to coast a few times (check, check), be competent in (long list) but you get the idea.
Then it hit me: Quest For the Perfect Day – QFPD for short!
Would have been fine if the idea could have just drifted off, but it’s left me in something of a fugue trying to define what, exactly is a perfect day?
Tomorrow could be close: Doing some yard work after successful projects were done this week. Prime rib for a delayed “birthday dinner”. Maybe some “consenting adult time”. Glass of wine, or two. Spot of exercise…Netflix series?
But would that be perfect? What about car racing? Lobster? New movie in a new series (like Raiders or Back to the…)?
What about “victory over troubles and obstacles?” New antenna that works better than expected? Catching the Big Fish…seeing the perfect sunrise… the list keeps scrolling by.
The solution? Breaking it down into “sub-units of Perfection.” Take beer, for example. I found myself thinking back to the “best beer I ever had…” But even this was a mindf–k. Because for taste, there was a PERFECT German beer I had in 1972 rot so at a Seattle trade fair (in my newsing days) at an event called UniMart 72. Big cold beer stein, fresh flown in Big Keg of Germany’s finest…lots of boquet to the head on this beer. Perfect pinpoint carbonation (not like over-charged American beers (“panther piss” ) this was my host’s word for it…
OK, but beer is also about the company and setting. I remember like it was yesterday, Elaine and her grown-up son Brandon and me sitting in the cockpit of our sailboat having ice cold beers on a warm spring day while tied to a mooring buoy on the back side of Blake Island on Puget Sound. the BBQ on the stern rail was just starting to smoke for steaks and in the background, Mount Rainer was like a big ice cream cone in the distance. A warm, but not too hot breeze…and plans to take the inflatable ashore for a hike after steaks… Damn hard to improve on that.
From the vantage point of old age, the problem is that I haven’t figured out how to have serial Perfect Days back-to-back, one after the other. Sure, I can get MOST things right, most of the time. But how can I “slam everything out of the park” every waking instant of whole days?
It’s frustrating, though. Even when I’ve had my rare “enlightenment moments” those are gone all too quickly…a quick “peek behind the curtain of Universe” and then plop – back on the rock, again.
Maybe I ask too much. Maybe we don’t get all perfect, all the time, no matter what. At some point, the last sip of beer goes, the last bite of lobster, how many pounds of prime rib at a single sitting is enough? (Is this series of experiments hindering weight loss? Um….)
I think Saturday morning, I’ll take a cup of coffee and go sit up above the rifle range. Been a small herd of deer – a dozen, or so – coming through to graze and it is peaceful watching them out here…
Makes you wonder though: Other than dodging bullets, what’s a perfect day for a deer? Other than avoiding chainsaws and lightning, what’s a perfect day for a tree?
Not sure, but I guess that’s what weekends are for. Let’s adjourn and go have one. Or at least another QFPD….Which is where the notion of Agetivity comes from.
