Nice. I smoked for years but had to stop due to a condition that causes terrible stomach pain & nausea called Cannabis Hyperemises. I occasionally miss it but the cravings pass. Now I just drink Scotch. |

I quit because it caused me to overthink “everything”. Plus I found myself raising 2 beautiful daughters and they became priority. Being sober made me a better dad I think. They are in their late 20s now and doing fine. I have a beer or two every now and then . I had some problems with alcohol when my first wife passed. So I keep it to 2 drinks. But this coffee habit… dang!! |

I don't and never will smoke weed for two reasons.
1. It's strictly banned in my country. 2. I'm poor and have a tendency for addictions. Weed would drain all my money in no time. I mean, it's not dirt cheap. Edited by Hrychu - 9 hours 30 minutes ago at 01:28 |

I read Barbour's book back when it came out. I remember it being a rather dry, difficult read. If I'm remembering it correctly, much of it had to do with Planck length (or maybe Planck time?) and the "nows" were separated by this. It's an interesting idea, but I sometimes wonder if this is just mathematics trying to find a different reality that may not actually be there. I never read Smolin's book.
That's a curious idea worthy of thinking about. It sort of reminds me a bit of Donald Hoffman's studies on this in which he considers consciousness as something fundamental in the universe and the physical world emerges from that. It's kind of hard to wrap my brain around that, but curious nonetheless.

...then watch them in rapid sequence.
"Rapid sequence" is a time-dependent operation. You're using something that depends on time to define time. Edited by wiz_d_kidd - 4 hours 18 minutes ago at 06:40 |
