Physicist Proposes Solution to Arrow-of-Time Paradox

"(PhysOrg.com) -- Entropy can decrease, according to a new proposal - but the process would destroy any evidence of its existence, and erase any memory an observer might have of it. It sounds like the plot to a weird sci-fi movie, but the idea has recently been suggested by theoretical physicist Lorenzo Maccone, currently a visiting scientist at MIT, in an attempt to solve a longstanding paradox in physics.

"

It's a good theory as far as it goes but, like most theories in their early development stage, it is set in a well prepared idealized lab setting. Here's the rest of the story:

“My theory requires that the global state of the observer plus the environment be in a quantum pure state,” he said. “This means that it works only if we consider a sufficiently large system that it cannot be correlated with any other system. However, correlations (entanglement, in quantum systems) are very sticky; namely, systems get correlated very quickly also if they are very weakly interacting. This is why, when one considers macroscopic systems, the only safe choice is to consider the whole universe, which cannot be correlated with any other system, since, by definition, it comprises all physical systems.”

But we can't "consider the whole universe". We still have the speed of light limit which means that we can't even consider the volume of a sphere with a radius of 1 meter as having a collection of quantum states that can all be measured simultaneously.

And BTW, for our Many Worlds Interpretation fans who believe that the alternate universes leak in and cause Burger King signs to change, look at the last phrase in the sentence in the above quote:

which cannot be correlated with any other system, since, by definition, it comprises all physical systems

No leaky MWI "stuff" is allowed in the above theory.

I believe it was the original McDonalds yellow arches that Darby refers to. It was Florida Jim that noticed a timeline change involving those yellow arches. Florida Jim participated in the Titor email experiment. As a result of that participation, he and other participants experienced a radical timeline shift. If you will notice, the word "Theory" appears to be synonymous with the term "Let's make believe." Keeping that in mind,will definitely aid in your understanding of what the scientific community is all about.

Hi Einstein,

Here is the history of McDonald's logo.
McDonald's - Logopedia, the logo and branding site

Did you know what logo change did "Florida Jim" noticed comparing to the logos in the link? Or is there a logo he used to know which is different to any of the logo in the link?

In my understanding, the term "make believe" in scientific community means prove it with successful peer-reviewed experiments.

As I recall, there was a physical structure change to the McDonalds golden arches. You might try doing a search on Florida Jim or Alter Vus or even John Titor's email experiment. Florida Jim tells the whole story.

The scientific community has a habit of sensationalizing the "Let's Make Believe." But testing out "Let's Make Believe" usually involves using technology that mankind doesn't yet possess. I just see it as a diversionary tactic to keep us from discovering things like time machines or antigravity drives, or EM generated invisibility.
 
This is all very interesting. I don't understand the math to any of this but someday I will. Maybe I should continue in my studies that I first showed Darby. Thanks and keep on believing because even someday Star Trek could come true. They are developing ships right now but privatized.
 
Hi Einstein,

I could only find one thread from Florida Jim about Burger King, but none about McDonald logo.

The only uncommon McDonald sign I saw was this 1952-62 Coast to coast logo

And this 1962-1968 logo with straight line.

It could be that I'm in an alternate timeline where reality didn't play out the same. It's a fascinating amusing pastime of mine. It works by changing a personal habit in the hopes that there is an alternate version of you that is accustomed to the altered personal habit. Eventually your brain gets confused and switches places with the alternate you. Then you get to see the reality that the alternate you was accustomed to seeing. It literally blew me away when I found Rainman doing his calculus backwards. I kept quiet about it till I figured that one out. Do you differentiate or integrate velocity to get acceleration. The answer is yes to both ways. It's all in the fundamentals. Of course I suppose I know other stuff from alternate timelines as well. But this is very similar to what happened to the participants in the Titor email experiment. And I suspect it could also account for why no records exist for Bob Lazar's education.

What do you mean by "Rainman doing his calculus backwards."?

I did notice something unusual in conversation with Rainman in the past. I remembered sometime in 2009-2010 when I checked this site from work, Rainman posted something with a news link. People couldn't see the link with "Page not found error" but I could see the news, I was opening the news article in a seperate browser. (one in IE, another in Firefox), and somehow Rainman told me to "keep both browsers open to bridge the worlds" after I posted that I can see the news link. I didn't understand what he mean at that time, a few weeks later the thread and all posts disappeared with the links and I couldn't remember exactly what news link was it, I could only remember it was something big. And later on that year when I was still working there, I received a normal office email date sent on December while I received it in June.

I left that company in May 2011, and one day I returned to get a parcel delivered to my old workplace. Someone had filled my old position, the new person had lived in Canada, and his name was George Haber.

I think Darby mentioned the term acceleration cubed. I described it in words the way I was taught to. But Rainman came back and described it using a math technique I wasn't familiar with. He was taking the derivative of velocity to get an acceleration. That's backwards to the way I was taught. So I decided to research his technique before I opened my mouth this time. I read through the fundamentals of calculus from three different sources, all spanning 100 years. I was surprised to find that all the books supported Rainman's method, but none supported mine. Kind of odd, don't you think. But the fundamentals suggested both ways. Where this timeline takes the derivative of time, I was taught to integrate distance.

It appears you also experienced a timeline shift. I deliberately will initiate a timeline shift for myself by altering a daily routine. It's just an entertaining amusing pastime for me. Try wearing a watch on your other arm and pay attention all day to observe any alterations. I'm going to try wearing my shirt inside out and backwards just to see if there is an alternate version of me on another timeline that does so. I think what's going on is that your brain gets confused with the new daily routine and will switch you with your alternate version on another timeline. Then you get to see the world over there and note any differences. And no promises on finding your way back. But word is out that James Holmes may have mastered this technique. If he did, then he got away with committing the perfect crime. We've got the wrong Holmes. With no way to apprehend the real killer.

Servantx,

Suffice it to say that after taking high school calculus, when moving on to university level physics and engineering it quickly becomes apparent that the calculus involved is expanded somewhat. College level physics and engineering is not easy. Each physics and engineering class also has a calculus class that must be taken with it. After four years of ever more advanced calculus the student has a slightly better grasp on the math than the high school student. That's why einstein was familiar with neither the math techniques nor the rigorous definitions of the mechanics of displacements and accelerations.

If it comes down to calculus who would you really listen to? For me, I'm probably going to go with the person who is actually teaching the subject at the university level while also applying it as an engineer on a day-to-day basis at a major aerospace company. More to the point of your personal safety should you climb aboard a commercial aircraft, whose math and engineering do you want to be applied to the design and conctruction of the aircraft?

Thanks Darby for explaining it.

Would you mind posting that Calculus equation here again so that we can all learn about it?

What equation are you refering to? I haven't posted any. You're probably refering to einstein's reference to something that Ray posted - and it would be on some other thread because Ray hasn't posted on this one.
 
Hi Darby,

I have found the old threads i was looking for. The equations about the relation of time, speed of light, matter and force.

Particularly in what you and Rainman came up with in the following 2 threads a few years back.

Fractal Time: Speed of Sound, Speed of Light | Page 2 | Time Travel Institute

Information Subsumes Physical Energy | Page 2 | Time Travel Institute

Servantx,

I still don't get what you're trying to point out. There's no calculus on the page you're refering to. All of the equations are given in very simple algebra terms and all but one (and it was Ray's) are taken from basic physics.

Anyway, whatever it is that you wanted me to repost, you've done it yourself by referencing the thread with the above link.
