Roman: …can I have some?

Virgil: Cake is for talkers.

I want a Sanders Sides episode where logan finally has enough of the others bs and just drags them all into a classroom in the mind palace, assigns them seats, and then just lectures/teaches them. Powerpoint presentation, laser pointer, lab set up, and everything. “If ur all gonna act like children then so be it”

Everyone: *start bickering and speaking over logan*

Logan: *leans against his desk, arms crossed* I’ll wait

John de Lancie as Q STAR TREK: PICARD • Season 2, 2022

“Mon Capitaine, how I’ve missed you~”

You have been sentenced to death in a magical court. The court allows all prisoners to pick how they die and they will carry it out immediately. You have it all figured out until the prisoner before you picks old age and is instantly transformed into a dying old man. Your turn approaches.

lady’s, gentlemen, and others,

the Geordi Giggle™️,

a small compilation by yours truly

Me to myself whenever I’m mildly upset

And they say romance is dead

Same vibes, same feelings... 😌💙

Loki 1x05

Star Trek (the original series) 2x01

For those of you who didn't watch Star Trek: Spock thought he had killed James T. Kirk, the Captain of the USS Enterprise (Spock is the Sciene Officer of the ship and the First Commander), but he survived - thanks to Dr Leonard "Bones" McCoy who is a Senior Medical Officer on the Enterprise. Spock is half-human (his mother was from the Earth) and half-Vulcan (Vulcan is a name of his planet - and the race there). Vulcans are tactile telepaths and empaths - meaning each time they touch someone they can read their minds and feel their emotions. That's why they always try to avoid unnecessary contacts - and Spock always emphasise how proud he is to be a Vulcan - he was raised in a rigid and sometimes severe Vulcanian culture which suppresses all the emotions in a person. Pure logic - that's what all the Vulcans aspire to. But Spock is not like that - he shows his emotions from time to time, and Jim Kirk is the only person on the whole ship who is allowed to touch him and hug him whenever he wants. Even when the situation doesn't require that. 😉😏 In times of life-or-death situations or when Spock feels sentimental, he calls his Captain "Jim" which Kirk not-so-secretly adores. 😌 No wonder these two charachters are shipped lol. The ship's name is Spirk, and I like it so much.

Later, Spock called Jim Kirk "my t'hy'la" which translates from Vulcan as "my friend, my brother, my lover." So... They are almost a canonic couple. 😉

Fun fact: this TV show was shot in the mid 1960s when the situation with representation was much worse than today. So it was very bold move from TPTBs of the show - and from William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy who played Captain Kirk and The First Officer Spock respectively. They had an AMAZING chemistry on the show, and they were best friends in real life. "To boldly go where no man has gone before," huh. I like this line from the show's intro. It can be interpreted in one way or another.

I wanted to add videos to this post but alas, Tumblr says it allows to put only one video per one post. Damn you, Tumblr. I spent so much time making them.

A fun read

What is light? This question has haunted mankind for a long time. But systematic experiments were done by scientists since the dawn of the scientific and industrial era, about four centuries ago. Around the same time, theoretical models about what light is made of were developed. While building a model in any branch of science, it is essential to see that it is able to explain all the experimental observations existing at that time. It is therefore appropriate to summarize some observations about light that were known in the seventeenth century.

The properties of light known at that time included (a) rectilinear propagation of light, (b) reflection from plane and curved surfaces, (c) refraction at the boundary of two media, (d) dispersion into various colours, (e) high speed. Appropriate laws were formulated for the first four phenomena. For example, Snell formulated his laws of refraction in 1621. Several scientists right from the days of Galileo had tried to measure the speed of light. But they had not been able to do so. They had only concluded that it was higher than the limit of their measurement.

Two models of light were also proposed in the seventeenth century. Descartes, in early decades of seventeenth century, proposed that light consists of particles, while Huygens, around 1650-60, proposed that light consists of waves. Descartes′ proposal was merely a philosophical model, devoid of any experiments or scientific arguments. Newton soon after, around 1660-70, extended Descartes′ particle model, known as corpuscular theory, built it up as a scientific theory, and explained various known properties with it. These models, light as waves and as particles, in a sense, are quite opposite of each other. But both models could explain all the known properties of light. There was nothing to choose between them.

The history of the development of these models over the next few centuries is interesting. Bartholinus, in 1669, discovered double refraction of light in some crystals, and Huygens, in 1678, was quick to explain it on the basis of his wave theory of light. In spite of this, for over one hundred years, Newton’s particle model was firmly believed and preferred over the wave model. This was partly because of its simplicity and partly because of Newton’s influence on contemporary physics.

Then in 1801, Young performed his double-slit experiment and observed interference fringes. This phenomenon could be explained only by wave theory. It was realized that diffraction was also another phenomenon which could be explained only by wave theory. In fact, it was a natural consequence of Huygens idea of secondary wavelets emanating from every point in the path of light. These experiments could not be explained by assuming that light consists of particles. Another phenomenon of polarisation was discovered around 1810, and this too could be naturally explained by the wave theory. Thus, wave theory of Huygens came to the forefront and Newton’s particle theory went into the background. This situation again continued for almost a century.

Better experiments were performed in the nineteenth century to determine the speed of light. With more accurate experiments, a value of 3×10 8 m/s for speed of light in vacuum was arrived at. Around 1860, Maxwell proposed his equations of electromagnetism, and it was realized that all electromagnetic phenomena known at that time could be explained by Maxwell’s four equations. Soon Maxwell showed that electric and magnetic fields could propagate through empty space (vacuum) in the form of electromagnetic waves. He calculated the speed of these waves and arrived at a theoretical value of 2.998×10 8 m/s. The close agreement of this value with the experimental value suggested that light consists of electromagnetic waves. In 1887 Hertz demonstrated the generation and detection of such waves. This established the wave theory of light on a firm footing. We might say that while eighteenth century belonged to the particle model, the nineteenth century belonged to the wave model of light.

Vast amounts of experiments were done during the period 1850-1900 on heat and related phenomena, an altogether different area of physics. Theories and models like kinetic theory and thermodynamics were developed which quite successfully explained the various phenomena, except one.

Every body at any temperature emits radiation of all wavelengths. It also absorbs radiation falling on it. A body which absorbs all the radiation falling on it is called a black body. It is an ideal concept in physics, like concepts of a point mass or uniform motion. A graph of the intensity of radiation emitted by a black body versus wavelength is called the black body spectrum. No theory in those days could explain the complete black body spectrum!

In 1900, Planck hit upon a novel idea. If we assume, he said, that radiation is emitted in packets of energy instead of continuously as in a wave, then we can explain the black body spectrum. Planck himself regarded these quanta, or packets, as a property of emission and absorption, rather than that of light. He derived a formula which agreed with the entire spectrum. This was a confusing mixture of wave and particle pictures – radiation is emitted as a particle, it travels as a wave, and is again absorbed as a particle! Moreover, this put physicists in a dilemma. Should we again accept the particle picture of light just to explain one phenomenon? Then what happens to the phenomena of interference and diffraction which cannot be explained by the particle model?

But soon in 1905, Einstein explained the photoelectric effect by assuming the particle picture of light. In 1907, Debye explained the low temperature specific heats of solids by using the particle picture for lattice vibrations in a crystalline solid. Both these phenomena belonging to widely diverse areas of physics could be explained only by the particle model and not by the wave model. In 1923, Compton’s x-ray scattering experiments from atoms also went in favour of the particle picture. This increased the dilemma further.

Thus by 1923, physicists faced with the following situation. (a) There were some phenomena like rectilinear propagation, reflection, refraction, which could be explained by either particle model or by wave model. (b) There were some phenomena such as diffraction and interference which could be explained only by the wave model but not by the particle model. (c) There were some phenomena such as black body radiation, photoelectric effect, and Compton scattering which could be explained only by the particle model but not by the wave model. Somebody in those days aptly remarked that light behaves as a particle on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and as a wave on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, and we don’t talk of light on Sundays!

In 1924, de Broglie proposed his theory of wave-particle duality in which he said that not only photons of light but also ‘particles’ of matter such as electrons and atoms possess a dual character, sometimes behaving like a particle and sometimes as a wave. He gave a formula connecting their mass, velocity, momentum (particle characteristics), with their wavelength and frequency (wave characteristics)! In 1927 Thomson, and Davisson and Germer, in separate experiments, showed that electrons did behave like waves with a wavelength which agreed with that given by de Broglie’s formula. Their experiment was on diffraction of electrons through crystalline solids, in which the regular arrangement of atoms acted like a grating. Very soon, diffraction experiments with other ‘particles’ such as neutrons and protons were performed, and these too confirmed with de Broglie’s formula. This confirmed wave-particle duality as an established principle of physics. Here was a principle, physicists thought, which explained all the phenomena mentioned above not only for light but also for the so-called particles.

But there was no basic theoretical foundation for wave-particle duality. De Broglie’s proposal was merely a qualitative argument based on symmetry of nature. Wave-particle duality was at best a principle, not an outcome of a sound fundamental theory. It is true that all experiments whatever agreed with de Broglie formula. But physics does not work that way. On the one hand, it needs experimental confirmation, while on the other hand, it also needs sound theoretical basis for the models proposed. This was developed over the next two decades. Dirac developed his theory of radiation in about 1928, and Heisenberg and Pauli gave it a firm footing by 1930. Tomonaga, Schwinger, and Feynman, in late 1940s, produced further refinements and cleared the theory of inconsistencies which were noticed. All these theories mainly put wave-particle duality on a theoretical footing.

Although the story continues, it grows more and more complex and beyond the scope of this note. But we have here the essential structure of what happened and let us be satisfied with it at the moment. Now it is regarded as a natural consequence of present theories of physics that electromagnetic radiation as well as particles of matter exhibit both wave and particle properties in different experiments, and sometimes even in the different parts of the same experiment.

data is fully functional

So the other night during D&D, I had the sudden thoughts that:

1) Binary files are 1s and 0s

2) Knitting has knit stitches and purl stitches

You could represent binary data in knitting, as a pattern of knits and purls…

You can knit Doom.

However, after crunching some more numbers:

The compressed Doom installer binary is 2.93 MB. Assuming you are using sock weight yarn, with 7 stitches per inch, results in knitted doom being…

3322 square feet

Factoring it out…302 people, each knitting a relatively reasonable 11 square feet, could knit Doom.
