What Is A Black Hole

March 16, 2023 Leave a Comment

what is a black hole

It’s basically impossible to give a short, succinct description of black holes that is also in any way even vaguely correct. They are so completely different from anything we encounter in daily life that even metaphors fail.

So the best way to think of it, for the layperson just going about life wanting to be essentially educated as to how the universe works, is to imagine a very large, very old star. This star has used up all its fusion “fuel,” if you will, and will soon collapse, exploding spectacularly in an apocalyptic cataclysm of radiation that will, briefly, outshine its whole galaxy.

What is the Turing Test?

February 28, 2023

In 1950, Alan Turing wrote his landmark paper COMPUTING MACHINERY AND INTELLIGENCE , where he probes the question “Can machines think?”

At the time, it was widely believed that there was something special about human intelligence and that computers would never be able to perform certain tasks, like understand language or play chess at a high level. Part of the paper was a point by point takedown of all the common objections to machine intelligence.

What is Nuclear Fusion?

December 21, 2022

Nuclear fusion is when lighter elements like hydrogen, helium and lithium fuse together to form heavier elements. This will release a huge amount of energy far more then any chemical reaction.

However to get nuclear fusion you need to overcome very strong repulsive forces between the atoms. For example the entire weight of the planet Jupiter is not enough to start fusion.

Why Does Inbreeding Cause Genetic Defects?

December 9, 2022 Leave a Comment

Technically, inbreeding doesn’t cause genetic disorders. What inbreeding in fact does is 1) restrict variation in the gene pool and 2) increase the likelihood of recessive alleles being expressed.

There are two types of genes: dominant and recessive. Dominant genes always actually affect your body. Recessive ones only show up if you receive them from both parents.

How Does Porn Rewire Your Brain?

August 9, 2022

When we feel something pleasurable, our brain releases dopamine. This dopamine hit leaves us feeling you euphoric. It leaves us feeling pleasure and joy and satisfaction.

And every time you masturbated to pornography, your brain released dopamine. And the more you did it, the more dopamine was released.

Which Direction Is The Big Bang?

August 8, 2022

mark cuban cost plus drugs

The one misconception most people have regarding the Big Bang is the idea that the Big Bang originated from a singular point IN space – but that’s not the case! Instead, the entirety of our current 3D space WAS a singular point (this is difficult to picture, since we can’t really imagine a 3D-point without any 3D-space surrounding it, but that’s exactly what it was).

If Humans Evolved From Monkeys, Why Are There Still Monkeys?

July 25, 2022 Leave a Comment

humans evolved from monkeys

1. There is nothing in evolution that states, insinuates, or infers that the entire population of a species must evolve in unison so that once the evolved animal (whatever it is) has evolved, it is all that remains.

All species on Earth evolved from bacteria, but bacteria have not gone anywhere, now have they?

What Is The Simulation Universe Theory

June 8, 2022 Leave a Comment

what is the simulation universe theory

Here’s how this theory goes. If a society gets advanced enough they would eventually be able to create a simulation of their universe that would be extensive enough to cover everything down to subatomic particles.

Once a society gets this advanced, eventually they are going to run such a simulation, to test theories on universal evolution, or even societal evolution. Maybe even theories on sentience itself.

Why Does Time Slow Down At High Speeds?

November 15, 2021 Leave a Comment

why does time slow down at high speeds

Space and time are linked and nothing can travel faster than light, think of it as a universal speed limit.

Having a max speed can put us into strange situations, because speed is also relative.

If I’m sitting in a car watching houses go by, it seems to me like I’m staying still and the houses are going 30 mph backwards. And cars on the other side of the road seem to be going 60 mph backwards, yet they won’t get pulled over, because from the police’s point of view they are only going 30!

So what happens when two space ships going the speed of light pass by each other, as cars on different sides of the road pass by each other? Does it seem to those space ships that the other one is going twice the speed of light?
