well the meter and the kilogram themselves are either completely or partially defined by the speed of light. its a fundamental constant that a large portion of nature depends on, so i doubt such surgical changes could be realized.

if you want to ignore general relativity or pretend black holes dont exist, sure.

probe something smaller than a planck unit and nature operates by creating a black hole

its only the limit we can probe things. just because we can’t measure something doesnt mean nature cant operate at that scale

append or extend is adding keys without updating existing keys. update can add keys and update existing keys. put will blow away existing keys if they dont exist in the new payload. which is why it cant be upsert.

put implies overwriting instead of updating. upsert is for you insert/update.

Not so long ago, noone knew about the weak force, and even the most brilliant minds would never think electricity and magnetism are two sides of the same coin. Now we have a theory that unites all three under the same umbrella. In many inte

i walked around and it involved force and energy. i will clarify. in the absence of other forces, matter is indeed pinned to the space it is in. you talk about gravity as if its something distinct from what is driving the expansion of the u

Matter is very much pinned to the space its in. If the space between two galaxies expands, the distance between the two galaxies grows. If matter wasnt pinned the distance between the two galaxies would remain the same despite the expansion

seems like this is just giving up on quantum gravity and saying the pauli exclusion principle will hold regardless of the gravitational force.

stuff can still happen after the heat death. the universe will keep expanding, and quantum foam will keep foaming. heat death just implies no work can be done. time still flows

if you use planck units instead of anthropocentric ones gravity isnt weak. its the mass of the proton that is much less than its charge. but why should those two values be equivalent to begin with?

even if you want to accept the ‘copyright is less important than getting to AGI before a government we deem less moral than us’ argument, i find it hard to believe things like emulating studio ghibli art styles, are a necessary part of that

special relativity is undefined at v = c. so no from a photons point of view the trip doesn’t happen in an instant nor does the length of the universe shrink to zero. there is no definition for a photons point of view. time dilation and len

is the spatial curvature described by general relativity due to non euclidean 3d space, or euclidean 4d space where we can only perceive 3d?
