Balthamael Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 I do not know if the universe has an intelligent creator of some sort, or if it came to be by some other means I do not understand. I do *know* that if there is an intelligent creator, then it does not know, nor care, about me. I am beneath the notice of such a being, even more so than a single bacterium is beneath the notice of a biologist looking at a culture on her petri dish. And you know what, I feel good about it.

I want teh kotor 3 Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 what do you think caused everything to come into existence in the first place? Is it not possible there was a universe of some sort before the big bang? Maybe if the genius-idiots at CERN got off their collective ass and used all those goddamn PhDs to ****ing weld properly, we'd know by now... In 7th grade, I teach the students how Chuck Norris took down the Roman Empire, so it is good that you are starting early on this curriculum. R.I.P.

Calax Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Yes teh, because somehow having a phd means that you have a lot of carry over with basic trade skills. Biggest thing about the time before what we currently know about the beginnings (1x10^-14 seconds) is that the standard laws of physics and realities go out the flippin window because everything is just so different. There is enough energy concentration that basic atomic structures can't even form properly. Also, this sucker will probably tell us more about the origins than the LHC.

Humodour Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Yes teh, because somehow having a phd means that you have a lot of carry over with basic trade skills. Biggest thing about the time before what we currently know about the beginnings (1x10^-14 seconds) is that the standard laws of physics and realities go out the flippin window because everything is just so different. There is enough energy concentration that basic atomic structures can't even form properly. Also, this sucker will probably tell us more about the origins than the LHC. The JWST is a baby compared to this sucker (which coincidentally will also be paired with the most powerful super computer in the world - once it's invented!)

Pope Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Much looking forward to the Webb's findings, although I will be sad to see Hubble go. Simply because Hubble sounds cuter than Webb... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tale Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Yes teh, because somehow having a phd means that you have a lot of carry over with basic trade skills. If welding can't be considered an application of particle physics, then I don't know what can! "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

Humodour Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 (edited) Yes teh, because somehow having a phd means that you have a lot of carry over with basic trade skills.

The sheer resolution and multiple redundancy of the SKA make up for that so many times over it's not funny, though! EDIT: Not to mention that the reason it's going to be built in the Australian outback desert is, surprise, because of the vast radio silence out there! It sure as heck won't be because the middle of nowhere is a convenient place to lay thousands of kilometres of fibre optic cable to... cables which will be - at any one instant - carrying the current Internet usage bandwidth of all of Europe in day. That's exabytes of data per day, which IBM is inventing an exaflops supercomputer to process at the site.

Oerwinde Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I believe that we don't have the sufficient advancement to understand the creation of the universe, but past evidence shows that sooner or later, we will. Though I likely won't be around for that. Maybe in a couple hundred years if we haven't destroyed each other by then. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

Orogun01 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I believe I'll have another beer. Seconded it. I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
