(06 Nov 2024) The two items for this update:

Item 1) US elections & Ruble versus the EuroDollar.
Item 2) Looking Glass Universe on electron spin.

 Item 1) US elections & Ruble versus the EuroDollar.

It is now 00.05 hours on 06 Nov so in the USA poll stations are still open. It's a bit weird but here are a lot of news outlets that have special 27/7 coverage on these days, that shows how important people feel that the issue is.
The weird thing about US prez elections is that even if you could predict the outcome of the popular vote, that does not mean that person will be the next US prez. So although I too have some expectation, I will not be that stupid to share it with you.   

Anyway my old 'smart tv' is slowly more and more falling apart or may be I was hallucinating yesterday when I typed in Ruble US$ and it showed me something like 102. I was very surprised but the internet on my tv is rather unreliable so today I took a good look at it and likely this is a better representation of reality: 

So 100 Rubles is now below one € and just above 1 US$ in value although it has to be remarked that stuff like a packet of butter is now more expensive in Russia as in my own country.
I mostly buy a so called biological version of butter that is about 3€ for 250 gram, ordinary butter here is about 50 cents cheaper. For USA folks: what we call 'biological' is what you name organic.  

I am in the camp that thinks the Russian economy should be rather significant in tatters right now. Of course for more tatters the economical sanctions are important and of course the obvious problem is that in case Russia succeeds in evading the sanctions, you almost by definition don't observe that directly.
But there are still a lot of people that think the Russian economy is doing fine. It would be a bad thing if in a few years we will find out those people have been right all along. Just like for example all that biolab in Iraq hysteria was after all not true at all.  

So you can make up your own mind because I found a bit from both sides. And if you just like me have nothing better to do as waiting for the outcome of the US elections, you could read it if you want to. The first one has a very positive tone in it like it is very important that there is no deficit in the Russian budget.

Likely in two days we will know more about the evolvement in the American equation and as such we can now go to the next item. 

  Item 2) Looking Glass Universe on electron spin.

In the year 2015 I started doubting that electrons were tiny bipolar magnets because I wanted to explain the results of the Stern-Gerlach experiment. In that same year the girl from the Looking Glass Universe youtube channel had a video out on electron spin.  

So without doubt that was one of the dozens yet hundred of video's out there that explain electron spin as the tiny magnet stuff. That made me cautious going forward of course, but over the years it always made more sense if you viewed electrons as having a magnetic charge just like their electric charge. And if on top of that you assume that this monopole magnetic charge is a permanent feature so spin flips just can occur, that is what I think is likely our physical reality.

The girl from the Looking Glass Universe, I don't know her name, has just a new video out explaining how electron spin can flip or change if you measure it. So she hasn't changed in say 9 years of time.

In this video she speaks of so called repeated Stern-Gerlach experiment and as such she must have shown us the results of at least 5 experiments that validate all the claims she makes about the probabilistic nature of these repeated SG experiments. But she only talks about the one and only Stern-Gerlach experiment from the year 1922.

Physics people often brag about physics being a five sigma science, for a new result to get accepted the found discrepancy between experimental outcome and theory should have a significance of at least five sigma. That sound very impressive but as a matter of fact there are all kinds of experiments just missing and they never talk about it.
There is no experiment that says electrons are tiny magnets, there is no this and there is no that.     

The Latex text in the picture below is from me. It says that if you have two magnetic fields behind each other at an angle theta, via the cosine of that that theta angle you can find the probability of measuring one of the two spin states. Needless to say that contradicts one 100% of what I thing with a permanent monopole charge on the electron just like the electrical charge.

The video is well made, goes along all the relevant things from the official theory yet avoids stuff that a lot of people will feel as too hardcore: complex numbers. The video is about 35 minutes long, click on the picture if you want to see it:

That's it for this update, as always thanks for your attention. 

(01 Nov 2024) Oh oh those poor people in Valencia in Spain. I never heard of a full year of rain falling in 10 hours, that is a very very extreme weather event. It is crazy, stuff looks like this where cars are toyed around: 

Well I wish the Spanish people a bit of luck in recovering from this disaster... The two items for today: 

 Item 1) Just a video from Anna from Ukraine.
 Item 2) New math post and another just talk out of your neck video.

  Item 1) Just a video from Anna from Ukraine.

I like the video's from Anna from time to time because it reminds me that there is still a lot of stuff happening that is relatively upsetting. But it's hard to stay upset for say 3 years, after some time the crazy stuff becomes the new normal.  

Anyway Anna was enthusiastic about an attack on a Russian artillery base inside the Luhansk region of Ukraine. I didn't find much news on it in other places. Here is Anne her video:

__________ 

In another thing UA prez Zelensky wondered why there was not much of a reaction from the west on the deployment of those North Korean soldiers and other military folks. And yes, I just don't know too...
It is one of those totally crazy things that are hard to get your head around. 

But as those NK troops get transported via sea, why not take entire ships out? Yet as far as I know there is also some railroad connection. As far as I know they are not in Ukraine right now while the USA has said that if NK soldiers would go to Ukraine all restrictions on future USA weapon use will be lifted. 

For that all to happen we still have to wait for the results of the impending US prez elections from in a couple of days. It is what it is and now it's time to go to the next item.

 Item 2) New math post and another just talk out of your neck video.

Finally that long post is uploaded. I think it is the longest math post ever on the other website. And all in all over the years I have written about 275 of those math posts. Sometimes I think it is much to much, how can an ordinary person find a good way to navigate this in case they have some rudimentary interest in 3D complex numbers?

This post is all about the number alpha in three dimensions. It is many things or better said it has many interesting properties. All in all it has 11 images of math, that in itself is record long. But the size of the images is also larger as in the other 275 math posts. Namely 550x1500 pixels.

And I learned something new to; finally after all those years I have found a better way of representing the derivative with the help of a limit. The problem is that the beta you see in the picture below can go into a direction that has no inverse. And in that case you just can't use the upper limit.
I know it's not a world shocking math result, it is more like say Lebesgue integration: Not a brilliant idea but it works very well.

As always click on the picture to land at the new math post: 

New post title: Seven properties of the number alpha. 
__________ 

I found another video on electron spin in the German language. Together with the video from 2 days ago it once more perfectly demonstrates that those physics professionals just always talk out of their neck when it comes to electron spin.

What is the case? Now in the video on the SG-experiment from Tuesday there was a homogenous magnetic field and why was that? Well that was to fix the spin state of the electrons, either up or down. And 50% are supposed to go up and the other 50% will jump into the down state.
According to professional physics people that clearly shows that beforehand the electrons are in a super position of spin up and spin down.
Well I said many times they are crazy...;)

But in the new video on the Einstein-de-Haas effect we see similar conditions: A bunch of electrons getting a vertical magnetic field. For the explanation to work this time it is needed that 100% of the electrons will align themselves with the applied magnetic field.

Together these two video's show that indeed there is a lot of talking out of the neck going on. This is caused of course by the fact they don't understand the magnetic properties of the electron. They are not tiny magnets, the magnetic properties of the electrons are just as it's electric properties:

Permanent & Monopole.

Click on the picture if you want to see the German video:

Here's an English wiki on the Einstein-de-Haas effect in case you can't understand the German language:
Einstein–de Haas effect, link used:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein%E2%80%93de_Haas_effect 

In vids like this the pattern is always the same when it comes to electron spin: They only tell you the stuff that sounds logical, but if you take the idea of the electron being a tiny magnet to the limit you often land in a land known as Crazyland. And that part is always skipped by the professional physics people. 

One hundred % alignment or a 50/50% alignment, if you are good at talking out of your neck it's just never a problem over there in Crazyland where the professional physics community lives. 

Lets call it a day and let me say goodbye to you and as always thanks for your attention. Let me try to upload this to our biggest common garbage can: the internet. 

(30 Oct 2024) And the two items for this update are:

Item 1) Russian central bank raises 200 pts + But is it sewage?
Item 2) Tiny correction + Bad video on the Stern-Gerlach experiment.

  Item 1) Russian central bank raises 200 pts + But is it sewage?

About four days back the Russian central bank raised their stuff with 200 basis points to a whopping 21%. A few times in the last months I have wondered why Russian interest rates are that high compared to their reported inflation numbers.

For example peak inflation in the USA was (if memory serves) 9.1% and the max rate from the Federal Reserve was something like 5%. Here in the EU we has similar numbers, key observation is of course that interest rates are always far lower as the inflation it is supposed to tame.  

So why in Russia it  is the complete opposite? Inflation at something like 8% and the overnight interest rates at double digits? That's weird and of course there could be a fraudulent component in this all but there are also additional explanations possible. May be the Russian economy is far less debt driven as our economies are. That could be, you have a much smaller middle class in Russia where you have those rich elites and a lot of poor that live on a few hundred dollars a month.
Furthermore the Russian economy has changed a lot in recent times and may be the Russian statistics can't handle that properly; if entire new industries get into those statistics but they have already strongly elevated prices, in that case inflation statistic look good while they are in fact bad.  

Or may be the whole defense industry is just not into those inflation statistics and as such you get underreported inflation numbers via that route. It's hard to say but my guestimate is that the Russian inflation is a bigger problem as meets the eye. Click on the picture for a Reuters report:

This weekend or may be it was Monday there were those video's from Moscow with a very high fountain of brown stuff and we were told this was sewage going very high up.

At first I believed that, but later I backtracked that because there is no proof that inside Russia or Moscow there are high pressure sewer systems. To focus the mind in case you did not see any video, here is how it looked:

Now over a decade ago here in the city where I live we got a brand new high pressure sewer pipes under the street. It was meant for a pressure of 25 atmosphere or if you prefer 25 bar. In Dutch we were told that: Jullie krijgen een 25 atmosfeer riool.

At first I too thought this was some real weird idea of getting rid of all that piss and poop and used condoms and tampons and so on and so on. And I thought this was crazy to do in an area where there could be significant earth quakes. So I wanted to know a bit more about this.

Turns out we have two kinds of 'riool' or sewage. One is for households and companies, the other strictly for rain and melting snow and so. The high pressure thing is for extreme weather with giant amounts of rain. 

If I were an engineer, I would make a sewage system so that it needs preferably no pumping at all. Let alone a ridiculous high pressure of 25 bar...
__________  

A lot more did happen in the Ukrainian equation but I would like to remark that Mark Rutte has made it to the North Korean television! That is a remarkable achievement, I can't remember of any other Dutch person to be named on that famous television network. So Mark gets my applause for achieving this almost impossible task. I absolutely know of no way how to get my own name on the beautiful North Korean television shows...;)

May be it is time to go to the next item. 

 Item 2) Tiny correction + Bad video on the Stern-Gerlach experiment.

In the last update I showed you an example of a so called counter example to Fermat's last theorem. Turns out later it was a bit too simple although the statement itself remains true. Look in the picture below from last week: 

The three terms 6, 10 and 15 are each their own square if you take them modulo 30. Lets check: 6 squared is 36 and the remainder is 6 if you divide it by 30. The same goes for 10 because 100 mod 30 = 10 and idem dito for the third term 15. As such the proof becomes just too simple once you have seen this 'they are their own square' kind of thing.
If you take three different odd primes, the 2 is causing this effect here, you won't have it that easy although even that is not very difficult to prove. So if you take the primes p, q and r as 3, 5 and 7 you have what I actually wanted to say.

So far for the tiny correction. The video for this day's update is another video from the Stern-Gerlach experiment. I'm afraid it is only in the German language. The reason I selected this video is that they replicated an entire setup of the Stern-Gerlach apparatus from the year 1922.

Of course that is not forbidden, for example a Bach music playing ensemble might try to collect music instruments from the time Bach was alive. As such there are no laws against making such a replica apparatus.
But it sure lacks any creativity, they just talk about the machine and never mention that you can also perform experiments with magnetic fields on electron beams like your good old television set or an old oscilloscope.

Here in this apparatus they have two magnetic fields, that's the main reason I show you this video: First a constant or better homogeneous and after that an inhomogeneous magnetic field.

Likely the first magnetic field is there in order to align the magnetic spins of the atoms they use. Or better: make the outer unpaired electron align with the applied homogenous magnetic field.

And of course these weirdo's leave out to explain as why half of the electrons would anti align their spin against the magnetic field. In all those video's it is always the same: As soon as it gets crazy they just don't talk about it. The crazy stuff gets skipped and as such it is not explained that if it were true that electrons are tiny magnets, why the fuck would they anti align?     

Video title: Zauberhafte Physik: Stern-Gerlach-Experiment
Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ap5QZ2CX8ys

These professional physics people, why are they to stupid to understand those simple energy problems we have with electrons as tiny magnets. Why the fuck should they anti-align?

End of this update, as always thanks for your attention.  

(25 Oct 2024) The two items for this update:

Item 1) NK soldiers already near battle zone & Zerlensky trolls a bit.
Item 2) Counter examples to Fermat's last theorem: a triplet mod 30.

 Item 1) NK soldiers already near battle zone & Zerlensky trolls a bit.

Just like a lot of other people I look at the weird situation with those NK soldiers and don't know what to think of it. Some Russian remarked that those soldiers were none of our business. But there are also rumors that Russia will give the tech to North Korea so they will have nuke launch capability from submarines. So that weirdo that said it was non of our business is just what it is: a weirdo. 

Remember back in Feb 2022 when we were told that Russia has every right to hold military exercises everywhere they want and it's non of our business... Well we see still everyday where that has lead us. 

South Korea has come out again stating they are reconsidering military aid to Ukraine. Until now they support Ukraine but did not want to deliver military aid. So may be that is going to change. 

Here is a CNN report on the NK stuff: 

North Korean troops spotted in Russian border region with Ukraine, says Kyiv Link used:
https://edition.cnn.com/2024/10/24/europe/ukraine-north-korean-
troops-spotted-kursk-intl-latam/index.html 

And who knows, may be the only place where the NK soldiers will get used is in Kursk only. To be honest I don't believe that myself... And if they are deployed as soldiers on the front, another wildcard is how good they actually are. Ok they might be much younger as the average Russian recruit who's average ago now almost is 50. But these NK soldiers come from a population where there is not much done likely for things as vaccination. Likely the NK rulers have their kids properly vaccinated and the rest just not. Who knows? 

In another twist Zerlensky is wearing a funny tshirt (I found it in a video from prof Gerdes but I don't know where he got it from): 

I forgot to save the link to his video but it was something with the borders of say 1462 or something like that. Let us go to the next item. 

  Item 2) Counter examples to Fermat's last theorem: a triplet mod 30.

This is a small part of my new math post that all in all has grown rather long. May be it's the longest math post I have ever written. But it's finished now and this line of math is from property 6 of the number alpha.

The whole post is about seven properties of the number alpha and I tried to keep it as simple as possible and therefore I included some lightweight math like counter examples to the last theorem of Pierre de Fermat. If you are a normal person and not a mentally handicapped nerd kind of person like I am, you likely to not know what this last theorem is.
Well it says that there are no integers x, y and z such that:

x^n + y^n = z^n, this for n > 2.

Andrew Wiles has given a proof for that back in the 1991-ties but this proof is very long and also very complicated. Also as far as I know Andrew has never given a bunch of those easy to find counter examples that can do a perfect job in case you want to explain it to a general audience. 

In the picture below I took the three smallest prime numbers and multiplied them to get the modulo 30 thing. Mod 30 is just the remainder after division by 30, so 31 mod 30 is one and so on.
If you choose the a, b and c as below you can easily make such counter examples to the last theorem of Pierre de Fermat. What I myself like in this example is that it sums to 1, actually it is 1^n but that's 1 for all n. 

The capital A upside down is a symbol that means "For all" so the above means for all natural numbers n. That does not mean there are infinite solutions, the exponential terms are all periodic so it repeats after some n.

Now the new post is about 3D numbers of course, I only use the mod stuff as an example and in those 3D complex numbers you also have integers and with those you can indeed make infinite long of these counter examples. And again why they are never used in those lectures on what Andrew did to the last theorem of Fermat is unknown to me.
Lets leave it with that, no electron rant today so at the end may I thank you for your attention and already wish you a nice weekend.   

(23 Oct 2024) A couple of days back I am watching a video about a Dutch guy that was the first foreigner to receive some high SS medal during world war II. Anyway at the end of the video I suddenly freak out: There was a photo from just beside the main bridge. I always passed that bridge on my way to my school, the Immanuel school and that was of course a school with the bible... Anyway it turns out that the guy that was in the small docu likely lived in my village too... And he was a secretary of the local football club but we had two clubs back in the time, I was with the Christian football team CSVH...

The items for today: 

Item 1) Are the North Korean soldiers in Ukraine an escalation?
Item 2) Dr. Jorge S. Diaz strikes again + funny Einstein news. 

 Item 1) Are the North Korean soldiers in Ukraine an escalation?

It is indeed bizarre news, just imagine how the Kremlin would react if soldiers from some EU country would go to Ukraine. Not as the occasional volunteer but lots of them on the behalf of their government. Well the Peskov's and Lavrov's of this world would make a gigantic amount of noise.

South Korea is even considering sending their own troops and weapons, I don't  know how serious this thinking is but that's just one of the things going on. And it even has it's own military logic to it: The North Korean soldiers are there to help the Russians but also to learn how to fight a Western kind of army.
Don't forget the NK military hasn't fought a war since like 70 years or so. And the South Koreans can study how to kill a lot of NK soldiers.

It's all totally bizarre, there is a large language barrier so will they only be used in meatwave kind of attacks? And if there are any survivors later, will North Korea take them back because these soldiers have been abroad and might have picked up some strange idea's. Religion seems to be forbidden in North Korea so how does that rhyme with the Russian so called traditional family values? 

Anyway Lloyd Austin the US secdef was in a surprise visit in Ukraine and there were a few military aid packages. No not the big hammers like 60 billion but still interesting stuff like 800 and or 400 million size packages.
Let me quote from Kyivindependend: 

The U.S. is planning to provide Ukraine with an aid package of $700-800 million for the domestic development of long-range capabilities, President Volodymyr Zelensky told journalists on Oct. 21. 

Of course Ukraine making her own gear is the best long term solution without all the boundary conditions as set by other nations. Not that I am emotional or negative about such boundary conditions, that's just how international arms trade and military aid works. If for example Germany says they don't want to deliver stuff like those Taurus boom things, well that's it. Here is a link to the Kyivindependend: 

Title: Ukraine war latest: US to provide Ukraine with $800 million to boost domestic long-range capabilities. Link used:

A lot more did happen but it's now time to go to the next item. 

 Item 2) Dr. Jorge S. Diaz strikes again + funny Einstein news. 

A few days back I finally finished my new math post that likely is the longest one ever written by me. So even turning it into pictures will take much more time as usual.

In the meantime Dr. Jorge strikes again with a second video on the Stern Gerlach experiment from 1922. And again in it's kind it is a very good video with again lots of interesting historical material.

This time I could learn interesting stuff like that it were the famous Albert Einstein and Werner Heisenberg that strongly promoted a so called repeated or sequential Stern-Gerlach kind of experiment. You know the kind of experiment that I claim has never been done successfully and that this is very strange because if you could do this likely you would have won a Nobel prize.
That's what I wrote a couple of times in the past and now it seems validated more and more that the pair Einstein & Heisenberg were pushing for this, if you would have done a successful repeated experiment also raises the likelihood of winning the main prize in physics.

What I myself like is of course the fact that both Einstein and Heisenberg just never realized to what barrage of problems there are with viewing electrons as tiny bipolar magnets. They too were too fucking stupid so to say...;)
But I am also aware that this can work against me; people will reason like "If Einstein did not see that electrons are magnetic monopoles, in that case this Venema guy is totally wrong".

If you click on the picture you will land at my latest post on the other website:   

Post title: Another video on the SG experiment and an additional pdf.
Link used: https://3dcomplexnumbers.net/2024/10/20/another-video-
on-the-sg-experiment-and-an-additional-pdf/

Well here above you see what is supposed the probabilistic nature of electron spin. Precisely the stuff that all models of quantum computing are based upon: If not measured the qbits will always be in a super position of quantum states.

But people like Dr. Jorge Diaz they are with many thousands so likely they will run the asylum a few more years. Didn't I have an equation for that? The measure of stubbornness = the measure of stupidity.

Yes, why don't these people not see the weird energy problems there are with their version of electron spin? After all they are supposed to be the grandmasters behind complicated Hamiltonians that if implemented correctly gives humanity quantum computing. 

Lets leave it with that, as always thanks for your attention.

(18 Oct 2024) This week in two days time our ASML lost about 20% of it's market cap. It was a comedy and a tragedy at the same time because by accident the financial data were published a bit to early. So during the trading day people became aware that the orderbook was only half filled compared to expectations from so called analysts. So could that silly AI hype be over it's peak?

Like I said before, a lot of the new AI be it generative or language based models are impressive. But I still don't see how all that money poured in will generate enough profits. And it's a lot of money, today it emerged that more and more of the big players want to build entire nuclear plants for the production of electricity. And that for stuff our own brains do with about an energy consumption of 20 Watts... 

Item 1) NATO meeting of Sec's of Def & the peace plan.
Item 2) Two vids; one on quaternions and the other on quantum computing.

 Item 1) NATO meeting of Sec's of Def & the peace plan.

Seriously, I had planned to try and read the entire peace plan that is going round lately. I am always a bit skeptical on such plans, take for example the two state solution from years back in the Israel-Palestine conflict. But I had constantly other things to do and the only video I did see had only the beginning of the stuff.

But it started with simply stating that Ukraine should become a member of NATO first. Well that is a very fresh thing to hear, I don't know if NATO is ready for such a bold move at this point in time.
But it brings a smile to my face, may be and I say may be this is a thing to consider in the future.    

Another thing that was tldr for me was the next transcription of a Joint press conference between Mark and Volodimir Zelensky from Ukraine. But there's where I got the picture from so it is more a source file as an advice to read the entire thing that is from NATO HQ.  

Title: Joint press conference.
Link used: https://www.nato.int/cps/en/natohq/opinions_229582.htm

And a small remark about the Kursk stuff: The weird behavior observed lately seems a lot related to the fact that already the mud season has started there. Someone remarked that both the Ukrainians and Russians are without supplies so their ammo is running low. And likely their food too... 

If all confirmed that would indeed explain a lot. Lets go to the next item. 

 Item 2) Two vids; one on quaternions and the other on quantum computing.

It's already some months back that I wrote about the quantum computing stuff where of course I always argue that all such computers based on electron spin will never ever work. When I wrote about that the last time I wanted to look up some stock prices of USA based quantum computer start-ups. But like with so many other things like peace plans it didn't come to it because I can always pick hundreds of things to write about. There is never a shortage on stuff, most I just never mentioned.  

But today Sabine had a video with two stocks in it, the D-Wave company with their difficult to understand annealing approach and that Rigetti computer company. It seems that the guy with the name Rigetti doesn't work any longer at Rigetti computers, a very interesting situation for say investors in the tech of tomorrow: quantum computers.

It could very well be that none the the way people try to build quantum computers will work because they are all based on the principle that quantum particles when unmeasured are always in a superposition of quantum states. And if that principle is just not true, and say for yourself why should such a thing be true because it sounds more as an opinion and not as an unavoidable thing flowing from many experiments in the lab. 

Sabine herself is much much more upbeat on quantum computing but I think that a bunch of people that can't see the energy problems we have in say an electron pair will never make good quantum computers. Sabine her video is rather short, about 7 minutes: 

Video title: The Quantum Computing Collapse Has Begun.

May be you once heard that story of a drunk guy who has lost his car keys and now is looking for his lost keys under the only lamppost on the entire parking lot. And when asked why he looked for them on this spot, instead of starting a fistfight he politely answers "Because here is the light".

As such you should view the next video: Why is the lady using the quaternions as founding stuff for quantum mechanics? Well that is her form of light, it is the only thing she knows of.
But quaternions are horrible if you want to differentiate, so you can't solve stuff like the Schrödinger equation. The only thing quaternions are good for is describing rotations in 3D space. That's why game developers and also the good old Space Shuttle love the quaternions.

And for example in my own 4D complex number, if I start rotating stuff using the 4D version of the complex exponential, it starts rotating over the four dimensions. But physics people use 3 spatial dimension and one for time and as such we get the famous 4D time-space.
Well this simply says my 4D complex numbers are not a good match for the 4D space-time from Einstein. It does not make much sense for the time coordinate to get rotated into a spatial dimension.

But I also didn't have enough time to flea through the entire video, likely it is just a thirteen in a dozen kind of video's relating physics to the quaternions from Hamilton. If this weekend I have a bit more time I can try to find some beautiful germs in this video but I doubt a lot I will succeed. And for this lady it goes too that she does not see the problems there are with the official version of electron spin. So that does not spell much good... Click on the picture for her video; it is rather long, about 40 minutes or so:

(16 Oct 2024) The two items for this update:

Item 1) Some to UA related details and a flag in the clouds.
Item 2) An interesting way of defining a derivative. 

  Item 1) Some to UA related details and a flag in the clouds.

A few days back it was suddenly rumored by Russian milbloggers that one of their SU-34's was shot down by an Ukrainian F-16. But there was zero following up on that story, until at least now, so likely it is just a story. And in case it is actually true, why talk about it? Three or four days back Forbes had an article on this detail, recall it could very well be just some gossip:

Suchominus was once more so friendly as to go through some of the satellite images from that Feodesia place. Here is another before & after, for his video click on the picture: 

Video title: Satellite Imagery Shows Nine Oil Tanks Destroyed at Feodosia Oil Depot After Drone Strike.

This site burned also for a couple of days, it is always totally impossible to predict what likely will happen. When I saw the first pictures all you can do is hope but it could go out also fast. Well that clearly didn't happen here. 

Hundreds of other things did happen, for example I didn't have the time to keep track how the Kursk thing evolves. Some say the Russians are constantly gaining ground back while others say it is maneuver warfare and as such you must keep them running. 

Before we go to the next item I saved a screen shot from a video from the prof Gerdes guy. May be this is an unaltered photo and if these are true colors you get with a camera it is a perfect photo. Yet if I would estimate it, the colors have been adjusted a little bit so you get much more of that effect like it's the Ukrainian flag. I didn't save the link from the video so you can click on the picture all day long, nothing will happen. 

Lets go to the next item while skipping at least one hundred other UA details. 

 Item 2) An interesting way of defining a derivative. 

A long time back, in 1990 to be precise, I found those 3D complex numbers. And it is very easy to verify we have so called Cauchy-Riemann equations fulfilled and as such you can differentiate and integrate functions 'just like' on the real line. Just like your average high schooler has to manipulate things like a parabola f(x) = x^2$ and how to find the derivative and so.

At the time I found it hard to write down the derivative in a satisfying way, that is in such number spaces like 3D complex numbers there are always a bunch of non-invertible numbers. So you can't divide by that just like you can't divide by 0; it will blow up.

But years later I found a better way of writing the stuff down, it is very easy to understand what is going on: If you can't divide by it (here that beta number), bring it to the other side by multiplying with it. So I never had a good equivalent to the famous "Delta y / delta x" or "Rise over run" as the Americans say it so beautifully. A couple of years back I finally found this definition and if memory serves this is only the second time I pen it down in a new math post.
So the upper limit is for when you can't divide by beta and the one in the middle is just the equivalent of "Rise over run".  

I have now arrived at property number 7 of the number alpha in writing the new post. It is becoming a very long post, one of the longest I have ever written.

The professional math professors can't use the way of taking a limit the rise over run kind of way, but they can calculate limits like the upper one because there you only divide all the time by t and that's a real number. So for once they are not one 100% pathetic, a clear sign of positivism.

The female robot on the picture is a bitch for sure! She has two remote controlled guns on her shoulder and she lacks that friendly look in her facial expression.

The last days I made two internet searches for comments on the 2024 physics Nobel prize that went to two founding fathers of AI. I expected a bit more uproar but there were not many comments on it. The most pleasant one to read was from somebody who asked him or herself the question: What is the Nobel committee trying to say with the handout of these prices?  

Well yes my dear reader what do you think? Is the committee trying to say something? Who knows? But I know it's time to upload this fresh pile of garbage to the biggest pile of garbage humanity has: the internet!
As always thanks for your attention. 

(11 Oct 2024) And what is life without a reminder of my girlfriend on a distance Majorie Taylor Greene? Yes sometimes I complain about our own Geert Wilders but the poor Americans must keep up with stuff like: 

Well yes I would love that too; Control over hurricanes of Cat I and II...;) May be we better go to the two items of today. 

Item 1) A bit more on that oil depot & more UA related stuff.
Item 2) Chemistry Nobel to two non academics?

 Item 1) A bit more on that oil depot & more UA related stuff.

In the last update I mentioned this oil depot thing, likely it is also a fuel storage place. Anyway two days back it wasn't clear if it would burn a long time but it seems to be going fine. Here is a satellite image, if you click the picture you land at an article of Newsweek where they have a Telegram video: 

Article title: Crimea Satellite Photos Reveal Damage to Oil Terminal on Fire After Strike.
Link used: https://www.newsweek.com/crimea-satellite-oil-russia-
ukraine-war-latest-1966321

There was another ammo dump successfully targeted but I don't know what was actually there. Some video said it were 400 Shahed drones (that Iranian stuff) but I didn't find much back in the regular press. Only this other Newsweek article: 

Ukraine Goes After Russia's North Korean Arms Stockpiles
https://www.newsweek.com/ukraine-north-korea-ammunition-
depot-karachev-bryansk-russia-1966210 

All in all the last weeks the news often has a more negative tone in it. It feels a bit as if people get tired from news from Ukraine. So may be the public opinion for support for Ukraine might be slowly turning. Or may be it goes just a bit down and that's it. But the tone of a lot of news reports and videos slowly becomes a bit more negative.  

Well it is what it is, lets go to the next item. 

 Item 2) Chemistry Nobel to two non academics?

Just one week ago I wrote that people like you and me can never get a Nobel prize no matter what. And yes most of the time it goes to university people only, the only counter example I knew of was some Japanese guy who invented that blue LED light. To be honest I never checked in detail if Noble prizes in physics only go to people with an academic job.

But now we have another two from more or less outside the official academia, I believe both work at Google and they got the chemistry prize for that protein folding thing from a few years back.   

It seems that the theme of AI is used more or less by the Nobel prize committee because both physics and chemistry share this. And like expected the first complaints that this is not true physics are already there. Well I don't care that much, yes AI development is not pure physics and much more computer science. On the other hand this committee is simply sovereign when it comes to what they want to do. I don't know if soverneign is the correct word here because that is mostly used in the context of countries, but you get the point: They can do as they see fit.

May be you recognize the guy on the left, that is Demis Hassabis who played a role in that cracking of the game of go from a couple of years back. Click on the picture for a Reuters report:  

Reuters report: Google's Nobel prize winners stir debate over AI research.
Link used: https://www.reuters.com/technology/artificial-intelligence/
googles-nobel-prize-winners-stir-debate-over-ai-research-2024-10-10/

The other guy is likely John Jumper who likely made some software some time ago and if you put in some amino acid sequence it spits out the likely 3D shape.

Well you can talk long and short on the subject of using AI or computers into research. I do it all the time, not AI but all kinds of computer programs because it saves me an awful lot of work. For example I know perfectly well how to find the eigenvalues of say a 5x5 matrix, but that is a lot of work prone to error; any tiny mistake and the whole answer is mostly gone.

But lets take for example this protein folding problem or a similar thing: how does biology only make one chiral kind of molecule? I suspect it has a lot to do with what I think of electrons: that they are magnetic monopoles. I can't prove it but it might very well be that in the two chiral versions of a molecule the electrons in each electron pair are swapped when it comes to their magnetic charge. Yet if somebody as a (bio)chemical researcher wants to investigate the monopole magnetic behavior of say electrons, all the existing AI and or computer programs are likely of zero help or use.

I have no problem with computer aided research, as it helps speeding up things it's fine. I myself don't use stuff like Chat GPT, I tried it a few times and yes it can spit out code even stuff like Latex code for writing my math texts. But overall I didn't like it a lot and now I never use it anymore.    

Hey lets call it an update and let me try to upload this to our common garbage can: the internet. Thanks for your attention. 

(09 Oct 2024) The USA is preparing for a big bad thing named Milton. My notes say it's an orkaan but likely the Americans name that a hurricane and I wish them good luck if you're in the landing zone of that thing. 

Item 1) Niels Puck on who's the best analyst & more UA stuff.
Item 2) A good not too long video on dynamical systems. 

  Item 1) Niels Puck on who's the best analyst & more UA stuff.

Niels Puck Anders had a more or less funny video out on who from the specialists did foresee the war in Ukraine correctly. And I have to say that Niels lays the bar relatively high; he makes the point that you had to foresee on say 19 Feb 2022 that 1) Russia would indeed attack & invade and that 2) You already foresaw that Russia would not be able to win. On the other hand he is talking about experts so in that case this might be a reasonable criterium about who had good analysis before the war and who not...

And that brought me back to myself, not that I am an expert on these things but I simply thought back in the time that Russia would not invade. I was thinking "They might be stupid at the Kremlin but they are not THAT stupid."
One day before the war I even bought a few stocks for in my portfolio and if you think a significant geopolitical event would soon occur, I wouldn't have done it but wait a few days or longer. But there was some interview or some speech out from Putin and finally the quarter fell in my head; he indeed had gone crazy. Or may be better; after all those years it was unveiled what was inside his head.   

And I wrote the first so called "Tuesday updates", before the war I mostly updated only on Thursdays so just once a week. But on that Tuesday I more or less panicked a little bit and therefore I decided to make an extra update that week. And since that time I write two updates a week, so now that is already about 125 extra updates. It has been a pretty crazy ride I have to say. Anyway here is the video from Niels, click on the picture: 

Video title: Why did experts fail to predict Russia's invasion of Ukraine?
Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0T2MYXljL5o

In other news it was reported an oil storage facility in Crimea or near Crimea was attacked. It was burning but not the whole thing, so lets wait and see.  

And it seems that this week a few of the Dutch F16's have arrived in Ukraine. So take it easy, not to many missions and get first some routine under your ass. But there likely is not enough time for that, I know I know. Well my dear Ukrainians I can only wish you well with them.

I hope you don't mind I don't post the link to this article... 

May be it is time to go to the next item. 

 Item 2) A good not too long video on dynamical systems. 

This is a good video if you are not that good at complicated math calculations but still are a tiny bit interested in for example what we name dynamical systems. Today the guy with the interesting name Artem Kirsonov did post his video on youtube so it is fresh from the press.  

Now in the video Artem gives a standard example for these kind of things: The predator prey model. Here it is done with foxes and rabbits. Although such models might give some insight of how things could evolve in nature in practice, you must also be aware that these models are often over simplifications. For example once rabbits have learned to avoid confrontations with foxes, that is not in the model.   

I remember that when I learned this model myself the first time, one of the other students remarked/asked the next: So if in the winter you shoot some extra rabbits, that makes the rabbit population that summer larger? And yes if those closed trajectories from the video are true the answer is yes but again such models are very simple compared to the complex behavior you find between lots of systems in nature or in your own mind or even in your bowels.  

The dot you see above the x and y just means the rate of change with time, this dot notation dates back to Newton. I too use it often but if you need a lot of higher derivatives it is not a good notation and the Leibniz stuff is better.

Before we split and go our own ways again I want to make a small remark upon today's Noble prize in physics. It was given to two of the founding fathers of artificial intelligence, if I remember his name correctly it's the Hinton guy that in the past worked for Google and another guy I never hears of.  

Now I did not mind because with this choice I did not need to irritate myself with looking to people talking about electron spin. No, it was an AI choice so that's interesting. Most people would see computer sciences as a different science from physics. Of course these two sciences influence each other but most people likely think they are separate fields of human knowledge. 

Well I just didn't care and it was not as hellbreaking bad as those "validation of the Bell inequality" where one of the prize winners even remarked that "This experiment is almost impossible to do with spin half particles like electrons, that's why we don't use them". (I never dived in the details but if memory serves the original Bell inequality stuff was with electron spin...)

It is time to upload this stuff to the internet, as always thanks for your attention. 

(04 Oct 2024) As so often just two items in this update:

Item 1) Well Mark does not let grow much grass over it.
Item 2) My candidate for the 2024 Noble prize in physics.

 Item 1) Well Mark does not let grow much grass over it.

We're now at 04 Oct and if I remember it clearly the Putin guy had ordered a few weeks back that the Kursk region should be taken by 01 Oct... So after more as 2.5 years of war Putin still has no clue whatsoever what his army can do and what not. Ok ok, that was it from day 1 of this SMO but it's still going on and it shows once more how good he is at his stuff.
__________  

I selected the next news item because of the cute picture with a NATO & a Ukrainian flag. Now I am not the one that gives false hope so I just repeat that it will be a long long way before there is some flag raising ceremoney like we had with Sweden and the likes.  

Anyway Mark Rutte is just a few days the new (political) chief, isn't the official title a Secretary General? Or is it without caps just secretary general? A few days back he was given a strange piece of wood by Jens Stoltenberg and I know now that this piece of wood is a Viking gavel. What more do you want? Well I forgot to look up what a gavel is, no idea may be a symbolic kind of hammer or something you can actually use if you need to do a bit of chisel work on some wood or so. You can read a small report from the Associated Press if you click on the picture:

glide-bombs-a4436a45d74456f0f199095442765957

You can't see it clearly on the small picture, but Zelensky has an extra word after the year 2024. So it could very well be they have at least two different calendars over there so they need some extra information for that. 

There was a lot more news, for example it seems that in China entire drones get ensembled and shipped to Russia. I don't think that's a very good idea so may be fresh trade tariffs of just 5000% on Chinese electric cars? Who knows, but lets go to the next item. 

 Item 2) My candidate for the 2024 Noble prize in physics.

I think it was two days back that Sabine Hossenfelder came out with a video on the fresh impending Noble prize in physics. And she had a few candidates or fields to offer for the impending stuff.

One of her choices was David Deutch. David Deutch? Noah, I don't know. It has to be remarked however that David has some unique qualities. For example you want to get high on weed and you look in your shoebox where you keep your stack of marihuana and you find it is EMPTY!
You begin to panic a little bit but years ago I have made a solution to such problems: A spare shoebox with weed in it. But hey shit, that one is also empty! What to do now? How to get high and stoned as hell?
Very simple; just down a few beers and wait to you get a little bit dizzy. After that you only have to view a few videos with David Deutch in them and if after an hour or so you are still not stoned you should see a doctor.
__________

Another proposal of Sabine was someone out of quantum computing. Here again I don't think that this is wise, for example all quantum computers based on electron spin very likely will never ever work in a million years. But all quantum computers are based on a principle of quantum mechanics and this principle says that if unmeasured a quantum system will always be in a superposition of quantum states.
If this is just not the case, no form of quantum computing will ever work at all. So if you award a Nobel prize for that, you run the risk that in the future you look rather dumb.
__________   

If I had the right to bring forward a candidate I would choose that Fermilab experiment under the name g-2. It seems that the physics people have been working about half a century on such muon g-2 experiments.
It is fantastically stupid that those muons go round and round in a ring steered by a vertical magnetic field and everybody thinks that the muon spin stays horizontal.
Non of them even remarks we have a serious so called energy problem here; why does the muon spin stay horizontal? That is so much stupidity in just one group of physics people that this more or less acts like a black hole of stupidity. And this black hole of stupidity is very attractive to all those people that shout "New physics! New physics!" after Fermilab released their fantastic findings.  

Just an old picture without link to close this update: 

Oh yes now I remember it; this was a very complicated way to calculate the length of the first column of this matrix M.  

That it for this week, as always thanks for your attention. 

(02 Oct 2024) Well yes, Iran attacking Israel. That's just what the world needs right now I just guess. Lets go to today's two items:

Item 1) Former Gazprom employee as UA fighter?
Item 2) Just some fooling around with the number alpha.

 Item 1) Former Gazprom employee as UA fighter?

A pity we don't have such a giant explosion from a Russian ammo dump this week. I don't remember the name precise but there was a failed attack where the fields around the dump were on fire but the ammo dump itself survived another day. Someone joked that it was so weird that this time the Russians not only said they shot down all drones but they actually did it. 

Anyway this evening I came across a rather beautiful photo and I don't know if it's a fake or a real. Furthermore 'beautiful' is of course rather subjective, it that is your farm field you likely will have a very different opinion on this. It was reported that in Yesk, Russia, there was a more successful strike on a ammo dump.  

If you click on the picture you will land at ukrinform.net:

As a bit of human interest, the Sun had a small video about a Gazprom spokesperson turned Ukrainian fighter. It sounds a bit strange but it has all of it's own logic, the guy was born in Ukraine and likely had as such a better understanding of what was going on. And with 'better understanding' that is compared to the average Russian who got most of their information from the lovely Russian state television. 

Here is a link: 

Video title: Gazprom official turned Ukrainian fighter has message for Putin. Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYzO9yOh5PU

As always a terrible lot more did happen, for example our Mark Rutte had his first day as the new NATO political chief. It was told he now lives in a house with 20 bedrooms...  

 Item 2) Just some fooling around with the number alpha.

Over the years I have written many times "Go look for the old post with seven properties of the number alpha". And one or two years back I tried to look up for myself that old post from 2014 or 2015. 

And yes, in some rudimentary form it was there but it was smeared out over the two websites because at the time I had just opened the new website and I was busy transitioning from here to there. So I wanted to do a rewrite of that old stuff into a new piece for some time now. And a couple of days back I actually started doing that.

If you would ask me what is the more or less most surprising result from the study of 3D complex number, I would say it's all those properties the number alpha has. For example it is the center of the complex exponential in the space of 3D complex numbers, that alone makes it an interesting 3D complex number. It is also it's own square, a property it has in common with 0 and 1 who are also their own square.

The post isn't finished by far, but in the picture below you can see the calculation that says alpha is it's own square. I multiplied it by 9 so I did not have to divide constantly by two factors of 3.

The number alpha is a 3D complex number X = x + jy + j^2z, because these are 3D numbers the third power of the imaginary unit must cube to minus one:

j^3 = -1. 

The number alpha itself is  (1 - j + j^2)/3, so that's why you see the 9 below.

Ok no electron rant this week, next week the Nobel prizes of this year will come out. May be the physics laureates will be more of those that think the official version of bipolar electrons is actually true. That would be a funny thing: You can be utterly stupid and still get a Nobel prize...

And we shouldn't pity these winners too much, ordinary people like you can me can't even get a Nobel prize no matter what. It's more or less totally exclusive for university people although I never looked into the founding documentation to the Nobel prize to see if it's also there.
That's it for this update, as always thanks for your attention. 

(27 Sept 2024) It's late and I'm a bit tired so a small update today. Our Dutch federal debt came in lately as 42.3% of GDP. So that's not bad, ideally it could be even more less as say 30% of GDP but with a debt quote like this we can absorb a relatively large shock like COVID or something of similar damaging size... Two items for today:

Item 1) Francis Fukayama & new US aid package for Ukraine.
Item 2) New post on the SG-experiment on the other website.

 Item 1) Francis Fukayama & new US aid package for Ukraine.

Today I didn't see much news and I didn't have any meaningful to say so I thought to myself: "Can I say something that is just as meaningless as my own life is?"

And of course I can, I want to say thanks for your support for Ukraine to the outgoing US government in general and chief Joe Biden in particular. So that's all I had planned for and include that with some interview with a guy named Francis Fukayama.  

But no way I could find that video back, may be it was a bit older but I could not find it. So I found another that can be used as a substitute and after that I took some time for the news of today.

Ok, a new military aid package from the USA to UA and not the expected maximum of 6 billion but 8 billion US$. So that's great and lets hope that it helps.

Click on the picture for the video:

Luckily beside all that polarized politics stuff in the USA there are still plenty of normal people over there. Lets go to the next item. 

 Item 2) New post on the SG-experiment on the other website.

On youtube this week a few days back a new video came out and this one was very good. There are dozens and dozens of such Stern-Gerlach experiment videos but most of them are just a rechewing of old stuff.

This video is great in detail and has also lots of historical details that are, at least for me, interesting. It's made by Dr. Jorge S. Diaz and although his video is very good in it's class, of course he to stays away from a land known as Crazyland. So he shows the expression for the potential energy of a dipole magnet in a magnetic field. Now it is easy to show that if electrons are indeed tiny bipolar magnets, that leads to all kinds of problems that are so crazy that I classify them as the stuff from Crazyland. 

The most crazy construction is of course the electron pair, that is the picture I have been showing you all year 2024 long but I made another one of those crazy things: The anti-alignment problem. Why the fuk should an electron anti-align itself with an applied magnetic field? Well the physics people never explain things like that, the only start explaining when things sound logical. If you click on the picture you will land on my other website where you can see the video. It was about 25 minutes long and if you like stuff like that I would recommend it because of the many details that are interesting:

I also started a new math post that will be rather long, so that will likely easily be two weeks from now before it is finished. That was it for this week and as always thanks for your attention. 

(25 Sept 2024) The two items for this update: 

Item 1) Falling debris & the three ammo dumps that were.
Item 2) Alice in Crazyland and muon decay.

  Item 1) Falling debris & the three ammo dumps that were.

This was another week with just to much news so I only take a look at the three ammo storage places that were under drone attack. What I found interesting is the fact that apparently if one ammo bunker explodes, that gives a chain reaction and it takes with it much more bunkers.  

After all if you see the footage of all bunkers and buildings gone, it is hard to believe that all were done by one or more drones. An operational detail that is out in the open is the fact that the Ukrainians collided those attacks with the arrival of trains loaded with new ammo. Of course you must wait for some time after the arrival so that the unloading of the ammo is widespread over the area, that is an interesting operational detail.

I have two video's for you, the first one is from Suchominus and once more he has a boatload of satellite imagines with highly interesting "before & after" comparisons. He also noted that the tree pattern in a few of the images resembles the old Tunguska event from the year 1908. So you understand the scale of the explosions here a bit better. For his habit this is a relatively long video, about 23 minutes or so. Click on the picture in case you want to see it.  

Video title: Five Trains Confirmed Destroyed, Plus Missile Stockpile at Toropets and Kranodar Ammo Depots.
Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDIqV4jk3i4

The next video is from Artur Rehi, at first I did not want to post this video because it contains such an elementary fault that I did not want to get associated with that. See below; if you release 10 thousand shells a week and you have 750 thousand shells, that is for two or three months shells. Likely the fault is that it's 10 thousand Russian shells a day and not a week... But anyway.

But later in the video Artur comes with this cute picture below, I can't read that but he claims it's debris in Ukrainian. I have no idea if this is fake or real but that does not matter. And from the Russian side yes they very often claim all drones are shot down but it's the falling debris that did it... 

At last I want to remark that the range of say the Toropets region was beyond say a missile like the Storm Shadow / Scalp range. The success of these attacks is a big thumbs up for the Ukrainian weapons smiths and designers and all the other things that go into making such a flying bread named Palyanytsya. It is unknown how the attacks unfolded in detail, so it could be that the new flying breads were in it or not.

And once more the fires were visible from space. Ok I skipped as always a lot of things and other important details but lets go to the next item. 

 Item 2) Alice in Crazyland and muon decay.

By coincidence I came across one of those AI generated videos, this one had the title "Alice in Crazyland". For me that was amusing because I always use the name of that land when I try to explain some of the weird things going on with electron spin as a tiny magnet.

I always talk about electrons as being magnetic monopoles and not binary pole things but there are many more spin half particles out that can be magnetic monopoles. But year in year out I keep it as simple as possible yet some years ago I once pondered the question if may be those tiny pesky neutrino's could be magnetic monopoles too.

But only now in the last few weeks I am looking into that muon g-2 experiment from Fermilab that I came across a detail that says it could be. So all it says that if nuetrino's carry magnetic charge the next picture is in line with that. If a muon decays into an electron (or a positron as in the Fermilab experiment) it also generates two neutrino's. In the picture below in the upper line it says there is a muon-neutrino and an anti electron-neutrino. And I simply trust the physics professionals to have it right in this detail because after all it looks like something rather hard to validate via experiment. It's not like validating the electron magnetic monopole character via cheap experiments below say one thousand €. 

If you click on the picture you will land at the video from Alice so one of those AI generated things.

That's it for this update, see you around and as always thanks for your attention. 

(20 Sept 2024) Here the two items for this update: 

Item 1) Toropets drone attack & Russian oil refinery capacity down.
Item 2) An empty item, just a picture and some talk.

 Item 1) Toropets drone attack & Russian oil refinery capacity down.

Well there was some serious boom stuff going on inside Russia; a huge mushroom cloud and geologists measured two peaks in earthquake activity; one 2.5 and the other 2.8 on the famous Richter scale.

It is rumored that up to 30 thousand tons of explosives could be stored at that site in Russia's Toropets. One person compared it to the nuke bomb on Hiroshima, that one was equivalent to 15 thousand tons of TNT.

What I considered very significant was that according to local authorities all drones were shot down and it was some falling debris that caused the fire. At the same time this location was built to withstand a nuclear attack and I felt so happy for Russia that they did this.
If you think about it, an ammo dump that can withstand a nuclear blast is very expensive; that must have been some very expensive super yachts and plenty of expensive houses in foreign countries. It is great that Russia is willing to fund all those super yachts so there is more safety in say Toropets.

So it could very well be that say a few bolts and nuts from some drone debris that only weighted 28 gram caused the explosion that gave a nice 2.8 on the Richter scale. Just imagine what would happen if a 28 kg piece of metal fell on the ammo storage facility when it was NOT made nuclear proof! Lets all thank Russia for their wise behavior and the prudent investments in safety via the method of super yachts. 

The guy in the middle was the one that said all drones were shot down. Now don't forget it is Russia: It could very well be that is the information he just had and he is not lying at all. Official information is official information, if you say it's not true you run the risk of prison time or free flying lessens from an open window.

I think most people will have heard or read the news from Toropets because it was such a giant explosion, if not you can click on the next picture for some Business Insider article or look for news yourself: 

Title: Ukraine says it wiped a key Russian missile and artillery arsenal ‘off the face of the earth’ in long-range strikes.

in-long-range-strikes/

It was said the ammo site had about 200 employees and the explosions were so huge and hot that a lot of them just vaporized. If correct and in the future we find a bit more validation of this vaporization idea, in that case this attack can be classified as a Special Barbeque Operation or a SBO.

At last Suchominus had an audio fragment with the sound of a jet engine in it, so it could be that this attack is (one of the) first applications of those new jet drones.
__________  

At oilprice.com I found a short tally of Russian oil refinery capacity lost in the last few months. Luckily it once more draws the correct conclusion that these attacks could lead to more crude sold by Russia and as such these attacks by Ukraine help bring down international oil prices. 

Here is the article:

Russian Oil Refining Capacity Plummets 14.5%
Link used: https://oilprice.com/Energy/Crude-Oil/Russian-Oil-
Refining-Capacity-Plummets-145.html

So all in all this week on this website alone we had three interesting things:
1) Russian Central Bank rate decision,
2) The Special Barbeque Operation or the SBO &
3) Global oil prices.

That is all very interesting from the intellectual point of view, so the hopes of the Kremlin that in the end people will get tired from all that Ukrainian news are likely idle hopes. Lets go to the next item. 

  Item 2) An empty item, just a picture and some talk.

I didn't came across any interesting news or video when it comes to electron spin or magnetism. So lets repeat the picture below one more time. After all when I made it last year it was my plan to use it at least once but preferable more times a month for the entire 2024.
And of course my plans didn't come out, may be I reposted it every two months may be every six weeks.
What is difficult for me is understanding rather precise how dumb guys like Dr. Don Lincoln actually are. (In case you missed the video from Don scroll below to the previous update.) 

Again I don't want to insult Don Lincoln because after all he is a likeable guy, but if you like him are a physicist and you can't see and you will not see all those weird energy problems we have with the official version of electron spin, you are a failed scientist.

But I understand there are also all those social things that stabilize the official version of electron spin aka the tiny magnet model. Suppose a bunch of physics professionals are having a coffee break. A few professors, a few phd's and a few students from the different years. Well non of them can say that rather likely electrons are not dipoles but monopoles. If a person does that either he or she must be making a joke and if it's not a joke this is a crazy person.
Every professional knows that magnetic monopoles don't exist... So there are all kinds of weird social dimensions to and there is not much I can do about that.

But I can ask you as a reader, what do you think of the picture below? In an electron pair the electron spins must be different because the Pauli exclusion principle says it can't have the same quantum numbers. And that leads to all kinds of very weird energy problems, how can such a configuration like below be stable?   

Nothing explains the anti-alignment better as giving up the idea of the tiny magnet. If you view electrons as magnetic monopoles you just don't have all those weird energy problems that people like Dr. Don Lincoln refuse to entertain anyway.

That was it for this week, as always thanks for your attention. 

(18 Sept 2024) We have a very flat landscape over here, yet the idea of getting 300 to 400 mm rain in a couple of days clearly sounds as a disastrous kind of thing. So all those living in mountainous area's or near rivers in East Europe have it often much harder compared to that amount of water in a country like mine. But we have plenty of rivers here and they can overflow of course... Luckily there was some preparation time otherwise the number of deaths would be much higher as compared to the relative low numbers now reported. Lets go to the two items of today:

Item 1) Russian central bank raises to 19% like expected.
Item 2) Don Lincoln satisfies an equation & explains the muon g-2 thing.

 Item 1) Russian central bank raises to 19% like expected.

Russian central bank governor Elvira Nabiullina came out with a rate hike from 18 to 19% because there are persistent inflationary pressures that did not fade away.

Well the Joe Blogs guy lately showed some numbers about the Russian producers price indices, they were so high that I did expect more rate hikes to be there. And if producer prices have low double digit growth, of course that's a persistent thing to consumer price inflation.

I got a Reuters report for you and I found it a bit strange that in it it says a lot of experts did not expect a Russian rate hike but I didn't have the time to figure out what they have done wrong.

Today it emerged that the Russian army will expand with another 170 thousand so that alone will have some additional inflationary pressure: Less workers in the economy and high salaries needed for them as soldiers. So all in all in my view everything still points to more and longer inflation. I have no idea where this will end but future rate hikes till say 24% are not impossible I just guess. Click on the picture for the Reuters report:

https://www.reuters.com/markets/rates-bonds/russias-central-bank-
raises-key-rate-19-amid-inflationary-pressure-2024-09-13/ 

So that part of the war goes relatively like expected, again the importance of the economical sanctions is huge. I also would like to remark I am very satisfied with an opponent like  Elvira because at least there is some pair of brains at work and that can't be said very often about the Kremlin leadership.
__________  

Before we go to the next item, the CVR (the Combat Veteran Reacts channel) had an interesting list with all kind of Ukrainian and Russian land changing hands. He claimed that all Russian gains from a long time have a total area that is less compared to what Ukraine gained in the last month in the Kursk region.  

I completely mutilated the table he showed because otherwise I would become so small that it would be unreadable. But it's somewhere at 08.30 min into his video. The video is a bit clickbaity but he has to live from this so it's allowed. 

Video title: Ukrainians Have Nearly Cut Off THOUSANDS of Russian Troops! Link used:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VaOZUmXqqSE

Let me wish the Ukrainians all the luck they can get into this Kursk incursion & let us go to the next item. 

  Item 2) Don Lincoln satisfies an equation & explains the muon g-2 thing.

Now I don't want to insult Don Lincoln because he is a likable guy, but in this speed it will take anything from 5000 to 500.000 years before those physics people will realize that if they claim that electrons and muons are tiny magnets, you need to validate that via experiments.

When a couple of weeks back I finally found out that they used vertical magnetic fields in the muon g-2 experiment from Fermilab while those folks talk about a horizontal direction of muon spin, it was clear we have a fresh new so called energy problem.

In this case we can wonder why the muon's spin if that is really a tiny magnet, stays horizontal. After all if you ask a physics professional what happens to an electron if you apply a magnetic field, almost all of them will explain that the spin of the electron will align with that magnetic field.
And they always skip to explain as why in say the Stern-Gerlach experiment the electron spins anti align but they will emphasize the probabilistic nature when you measure electron spin. Of course there is no good experimental evidence for that but hey these folks think they run a so called 'Five sigma' kind of science. And if you have an enough arrogant attitude like that, you can easily just ignore what I have to say on the matter of electron spin and keep on talking out of your neck. And Mr. Lincoln is very good at that as you can see in the more or less entertaining video.

The mu I use has nothing to do with the muon from the experiment. The symbol mu is also used in math as a measure. And I write it in this way because years and years ago I arrived that the conclusion that a lot of physics folks have this combination of arrogance and stupidity. And I know that because I myself can be a very arrogant person too, but I only have that attitude if I know what I am talking about.

So if you want to see the video, it will take about 15 minutes out of your life if you look at the entire video. May be you better think about all the crazy energy problems that come along with those ideas that electrons and muons always must be tiny magnets.  

Video title: What does the Muon g-2 experiment tell us?
Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCCGr4BqElE

Now we are about 3 year further down the timeline compared when this video was made, can we say that in 3 years time absolutely nothing has been heard? Yes as far as I know reality, the g-2 experiment has told nothing point nothing in three years of time. 

That was it for this update, as always thanks for your attention and try not to be too arrogant but be humble and try to get more Russians killed. 

(13 Sept 2024) The two items for this update:

Item 1) Anders on Russian provocations & Blinken + Lammy in Kyiv.
Item 2) Terrible bad explanation of the muon g-2 experiment.

 Item 1) Anders on Russian provocations & Blinken + Lammy in Kyiv.

Anders Puck Nielsen had a short video out with some thoughts as why European NATO countries react so lukewarm on Russian provocations. And I agree in a large part with the way Anders looks at it, if I speak for myself I can't get highly emotional or agitated by Russian stuff.

Today I was thinking this evening I must try and look up those weird details of the burned down IKEA but I forgot to do that and now it's too late. Of course I don't have any definitive proof that Russia was behind that, but the details are so weird that it is hard to get agitated. It is more like HOW FUCKING STUPID CAN THIS GET?

Of course there is much more going on like all those drones that land in weird places or fly through other nations skies. Even if it's done on purpose, I don't get very agitated by it. So here's the video:

Video title: Why is NATO not responding to Russian provocations?
Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66CDGzjLBtY

A horrible more did happen and all that has to be skipped but I want to mention the rare visit of USA's Blinken and the UK's Lammy. Now what I hoped for myself was that may be there could be some kind of solution to the glide bombs the Russian use. And it seems ATACMS are not the answer to that, quote:

One of the key requests from Kyiv is to strike with U.S.-produced Army Tactical Missile Systems, or ATACMS. The Pentagon has noted they wouldn’t be the answer to the main threat Ukraine faces from long-range Russian fired glide bombs, which are being fired from more than 300 kilometers away, beyond the ATACMS reach, said Pentagon spokesman Lt. Col. Charlie Dietz.   

Well I didn't ask for a specific weapon system of course, only asked if it was possible to do something against the threat of glide bombs. I don't know much about glide bombs but likely they go on their gliding mission from about the maximum range they can be fired from. If memory serves the Russians use launching air planes that can climb relatively high so that the distance can be covered.
Lets leave it with that, below is a France 24 article with more on the stuff:

%F0%9F%94%B4-live-top-us-uk-diplomats-head-to-ukraine-
to-discuss-weapons-supply

In the above link from France 24 there was a red dot in the link visible, that must be the code  %F0%9F%94%B4 in the link. I had never seen such a thing before but on the other hand often you don't pay much attentions at the links you click. 

Lets go to the next item. 

 Item 2) Terrible bad explanation of the muon g-2 experiment.

This is one of those terrible bad video's on electron spin, in this case the muon g-2 experiment from 3 years back done at Fermilab. It was just a few weeks ago that I dived a bit deeper into the details of that experiment and now have the next magical result from Fermilab:

The muon goes round in a circle with a diameter of 14 meters at almost the speed of light. It's path is curved and that is done with a magnetic field that must be vertical in nature to get the Lorentz effect (the curving of the path the muon follows).
Anyway these Fermilab people claim that the spin of the muon stays horizontal.... 

And that is once more a result from Crazyland as I name that, you always get stuff from that land if you view electrons and similar particles as tiny bipolar magnets. Why the hell in this particular case do the muon's never align with the applied vertical magnetic field? 

But the professional physics people never talk about it when there results are from Crazyland, they only concentrate of stuff that looks or sounds more or less logical.

The video is from Parth G and very very likely I had already seen this video a few years back and if so you can learn absolutely nothing from this video. You only get the usual blah blah blah about physics being a so called 'Five sigma' science meaning that a large significance threshold is taken.
But if you leave all the trash out, no wonder you get some pristine high sigma significance. Beside the stuff from Crazyland there is nothing in this particular experiment that proofs that indeed particle like electrons and muons are indeed bipolar tiny magnets.
This is one of those experiments where they only measure a frequency but that in itself does not prove in any meaningful way that this is caused by tiny bipolar magnets...   

To be honest the video is a waste of your time so do not say I did not warn you! But serious, this kind of behavior is what the physics people all do and then you get that bullshit again like "Oh we want to find new physics!".
The second half of the picture below is not from the video but it shows the remarkable angle the muon's spin direction makes each round: A sharp 12 degrees, a true miracle before our eyes.  

Video title: Have Scientists Really Discovered a New FORCE? Muon g-2 Experiment EXPLAINED by Parth G.
Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHEjh5fXuW4

Oh oh, these people won't learn it in a thousand years: Want to find some so called new physics? Well very simple, try to think about the electron as a tiny magnet and find some of the crazy weird energy problems that come with it.
Like the stability of the electron pair; two anti-aligned or anti parallel tiny magnets just aren't in their lowest potential energy state. Let me post the next picture one more time in this year 2024 because I made it not for nothing in the last year 2023, if you click the link you will land at the category magnetism on the other website:

Ok lets try and get this garbage uploaded to the internet and may be till next week or some other update. Thanks for your attention. 

(11 Sept 2024) Two items for this update:

Item 1) Oil prices / Weird influencers / Ramstein meeting / Thermite drone.
Item 2) New math post on the other website.

Item 1) Oil prices / Weird influencers / Ramstein meeting / Thermite drone.

As an interesting joke we can observe that those attacks on Russian oil refineries and storage places are having their desired effect: It suppresses oil prices...;) Today oil prices fell by 4% with some kind of Texas oil going for just 65,75 $ / barrel while gas prices at the pump are about 15% lower as one year ago. So winning the elections on the back of that looks like a cakewalk. 
__________ 

Weird influencers. More people did bring this weird subject up of paid conservative influencers that pushed Russian points like the terror attack on the Russian Crocus hall was done by Ukraine. Anyway Jake Broe had an excellent video about this madness about some guy getting one hundred thousand $ a week for 'licensing' his podcast show to some firm named Tenet. 

It is just as crazy as that story that an Ikea was set on fire by Russian agents. And the idea was that for some strange reason that would lead to more people being against Ukraine... Don't ask me for the logic, may be ask Dimitri Peskov from the Kremlin. 

As always click on the picture to land at the video: 

Video title: Russia Offers Asylum to YouTubers Paid by TENET Media to Promote Russia & Trump.
Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBKv17geSJY

I often wonder how good such weird things actually work. Take that crazy Ikea example from the past: Instead of the locals getting upset with Ukraine for not understandable reasons, the locals can also think "Hey lets do our best to get 25 thousand more Russians killed". 
__________

More serious was of course the Ramstein meeting. I won't say much on it only remark that I agree that deep strikes inside Russia are not the Wunderwaffe that is now often thought. After all war is a dynamical process and likely Russia will figure out how to circumvent that. On the other hand I myself have the opinion that Ukraine also has the right to defend itself against stuff like those glide bombs and other long range ballistic missiles.

And the last of the four subitems is without any link but it's about that horrible new thermite drone. A local video blogger thought it was a drone that poured liquid metal, will no this is much more worse. Thermite is a wonderfull substance as long as you are far away from it, with the present chemical knowledge it is relative good understandable how the heat generating process works. So you don't need much insight into the nature of electron spin.
Anyway I had the screenshots from a local channel named nu.nl but it has terrible resolution. So to be sure what was what I placed the text in the middle of the picture.  

It's also called a Game of Thrones drone. Normally I would frown upon usage of that stuff directly against humans, but the Russians have used thermite themselves so as far as I am concerned what comes around goes around. Lets go to the next item. 

 Item 2) New math post on the other website.

I finally finished the new math post and published it on the other website. I am not one hundred percent satisfied with it because originally I was planning to build it around the so called Möbius function. But later I decided not to do that and all in all the post is already 10 pictures long.  

The post itself is about how many integer solutions there are on those ellipses that come with the so called elliptic complex numbers. If you use the fact that those interger points are also (ellitic) complex numbers, you can make much more sense about how many integer solutions there are found on some particular ellipse x^2 + xy + y^2 = 7.  

May be you have heard of the Gaussian integers, there they always come in quadruples, in sets of four. With the elliptic stuff it all comes in sixpacks or if you want in sets of six. So in the list below you can see that now 7 can be factored into two elliptic primes because there are 12 integer solutions.  

Normally I don't dive too deep into stuff that is clearly algebra but this time the subject was beautiful enough to make an exception. So if you want to know a bit more about those elliptic numbers, click on the picture below and land on the new post on the other website:

That was it for this update, thanks for not dropping dead and as always thanks for your attention. 

(06 Sept 2024) Only one item for this update:

Item 1) Pm Schoof in UA, our defense note & Oleksandr Syrskyi on Kursk.

 Item 1) Pm Schoof in UA, our defense note & Oleksandr Syrskyi on Kursk.

I think it was at the beginning of this week that our new pm Dick Schoof was on a visit to Ukraine. So despite our rather strange gone elections, this is a clear signal to Ukraine. And now the German elections, they too have a problem with that AfD stuff that is also for some strange reason anti Ukraine. And of course the biggest election wildcard is still the US prez elections from in about 2 months from now. 

We have a new so called defensienota out for this year. And it sounds impressive, more fregats against submarines, more F-35's more this and more that. So after so many years of under investment that's a good thing. In the past it has happened on occasions that during exercises there just wasn't enough ammo to practice with. But that's over now.
And those new frigates must be much more resilient against the new sea drones as we see them in the Ukrainian conflict.  

I bring this up because now we seem to have that 2% rule that says 2% of the size of the GDP should go to defense. And that's a simple to understand rule and I don't want to make things more and more complicated when there is no reason for this.
But for example those extra frigates are made here while the extra F-35's costs a lot of money that goes to the USA. But those two things are a hell of a lot different, with all stuff locally made at least the money stays into the local economy and the know how of how to make a modern frigate is kept alive and vital. While all money on new planes will mostly go  to the USA. As a long term cost to the economy that is very different from each other.

The next link is in Dutch, it's a news version of the defensienota 2024:

__________ 

And just before I wanted to start writing this update while scrolling through the US news there was a CNN exclusive with Oleksandr Syrskyi. And he was explaining the rationales behind the Kursk incursion or invasion if you want.

Now there are dozens and dozens media reports out where it is told this Kursk thing is a blunder, a strategic failure and so on and so on. I always try to avoid such shallow thinking, this Kursk thing is a complicated thing of say a 1000 different ways to think about it. But if there are possible a 1000 things going on and you spread your wisdom on only 2 or 3 of them, that leads to such shallow talk as often found in such reports.
It's more some opinion as it is a serious analysis. 

Let me quote the opening lines of the interview with CNN's Christiane Amanpour:

Russia had been planning to launch a new attack on Ukraine from the Kursk region before Kyiv’s surprise cross-border incursion, Ukraine’s Commander-in-Chief Gen. Oleksandr Syrskyi told CNN in an exclusive interview Thursday.  

And if by taking the fight to enemy territory so more damage inside Ukraine is prevented, that is all very logical I think. So I agree with Oleksandr that in this way the Kursk stuff is a success while everybody knows there are still many many problems that are unsolved.

Stuff like those glide bombs are still a giant problem. And may be may be if it is allowed to use far reaching weapons against the launching vehicles that are deep inside Russia, that can help a bit.
But that's not a so called Wunderwaffe, it is just one of the many tools needed to win this war. And winning the war is still a mountain of work...

That was it for this post, I didn't have much material for a second item and that's also be I just started a new math post turning into the 7 or 8 pictures that it will become. So that's for next week and in the meantime let me thank you for your interest.  

(04 Sept 2024) The two items for this update are:

Item 1) Another week with too much news from Ukraine.
Item 2) New post on the other website + another crazy video.

 Item 1) Another week with too much news from Ukraine.

Ok I prepared a bit for this update yesterday so that's why the stuff with Pink is still in. Likely if I would have started today I would have left this out because of the large and rather weird strike against that educational facility. See CNN if you don't know what happened: 

Article title: Dozens killed in Russian strike on military educational facility in central Ukraine.
Link used: https://edition.cnn.com/2024/09/03/europe/ukraine-
poltava-russia-attack-intl/index.html 

So it looks like this was not a war crime contrary to a lot of strikes from the last days.  

Last Sunday there was a barrage of US drones attacking inside Russia, one of the targets was an oil refinery that apparently is about 20 mile from the Kremlin itself. But around Moscow there are about three rings of air defense systems so it is very remarkable that so many come through.

I don't know if the next picture is from that refinery close to Moscow, it could be but it was just some footage from a Dutch news video: 

The guy known as prof Gerdes joked that on this day two years back Putin ordered for the entire oblast to be taken in two months. Of course that didn't happen and that is just one more example that Putin is just to fucking stupid to understand what his own military can do and can't do.

If I would make such a serious miscalculation I absolutely didn't want to be seen in public for at least 6 months or even 10 months. A common misconception amongst almost all autocrats is that they think they are very important. It really is a kind of mental illness so even as it is shown they are stupid to the bone they just go on and on and on. And then some mentally retarded general gets sacked or arrested and that's it and the shitshow goes on for another cycle...

The German Torsten guy, the one with a degree in military history, had a new video out. I think it was from yesterday:

Video title: BIGGEST Strike by Ukraine so far; Prokovsk: Russians slowing down.
Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fVVjHMFh5E

And for what it's worth I looked up to that old video from Pink and guess what? The original video wasn't in my pile of illegal copied videos! Shame on me. So despite the mood is a bit down today, last Sunday's attacks were a feast for the eye. And Russia should not complain, they started attacking energy infrastructure themselves. But likely on the Russian state television they complain about barbarians that attack thermal power stations... Ooh, those crybabies, they are so sensitive and so special.   

So here's that old Pink video again, it's said it is 14 years old:

Video title: P!nk - Get The Party Started (Official Video)
Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mW1dbiD_zDk 

A lot more did happen but it's now time to go to the other item. 

  Item 2) New post on the other website + another crazy video.

That video from Fermilab about the muon g-2 experiment was so crazy that I decided to pen a new post about it. Likely these people themselves are not aware how crazy their result is: 

Muons flying round in a ring at almost the speed of light in a relatively strong vertical magnetic field while the muon spin stays horizontal all of the time.

And these weirdo's even don't try to explain how it is even possible that the electron spin stays horizontal. Once more: Where does the energy come from? As always when electron or in this case muon magnetism becomes a bit crazy, they just skip that and just don't talk about it. 

In quantum computing the physics folks from TU Delft try to make qubits based on electron spin. The video is five years old and of course at the university of Delft they have nothing to show for. And next academic year 2024/2025 will be just another stream of video's from the QuTech Academy. Over there one more year no one will remark that hey may be it's a good idea to check via experiment that indeed electrons are tiny magnets. Or for that matter: is electron spin really probabilistic in nature?
These are overpaid weirdo's, I myself do not view they as scientists because what they use as 'knowledge' is often so shallow and is not consistent.

In the video from QuTech they claim they can flip the spin of an electron with just a tiny microwave sized pulse. So at Fermilab the muons go round with almost the speed of light and no spin flip while at QuTech they only need a tiny amount of energy to make the miracle happen.

The video is rather boring so if you have a normal life you can choose not to watch it. Or if you want to see it anyway, don't forget that it is much much more likely that electrons are magnetic monopoles. In that case you don't have a wide freakshow of all kinds of crazy energy problems like the Fermilab muons that stay horizontal.  

Video title: NV center qubits | QuTech Academy.
Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2KQCOq1hRA

Large parts of academic research into quantum computing and also nuclear fusion will never be done correctly if these weirdo's keep on viewing the electron as a tiny magnet. But likely next academic year absolutely nothing will happen once more demonstrating how utterly useless these people are.

With useless I mean long term scientific progress, all in all they might be normal people with healthy brains. Who knows?

Lets leave it with that, as always thanks for your attention. 

(30 August 2024) The two items for this update:

Item 1) Just another day in Ukraine.
Item 2) No, this is not an electron pair & short list of elliptic primes.

 Item 1) Just another day in Ukraine.

And as always just too much did happen, for example Jake Sullivan on a visit to China but I didn't even had the time to read it. So at random just a few of the details of just another day in Ukraine.

Funny news was that some Russian soldiers get a pay cut when they are redeployed to the Kursk region. Salaries chopped down from 200 thousand ruble to 35 thousand...

Sad was of course the news that already the first F16 is down and of course sadder is the loss of the pilot. So my condolences to those involved.
I never wrote it down but from day one I understood that in say a bad case scenario there could be losses of 20 to 30% of all F16's delivered to Ukraine. Details aren't out yet while I more or less estimate it's not shot down by Russian fire. But we have to wait for more details.

Oil news: More attacks on Russian oil depots, one of those is already burning for 10 days and may be the one in the picture below is a barbeque party that's only getting started. Wasn't that some old song from Pink? Get this party started or something like that.
Anyway if you click on the picture below you don't land at the Pink song but at a Reuters report:

Then there was a bit of vague news about the use of may be the Storm Shadow and Scalp a bit deeper in Russia. It seems there are GPS problems, the Americans have some kind of solution for that but they don't want to bring that out.
Ok, now it becomes all a bit more rational and not that weird stuff like a reset of US-Russian relations. May be I reacted a bit to harsh in the previous update. Well lets hope for the best because this week was a crazy week when it came to bombings originating on Russian soil. 
__________ 

Lets end this UA update on a light tone: Putin has ordered for the Kursk region to be liberated by 01 Oct. So in one month and one day we will see again how good he is at understanding the capabilities of his own military & other similar security stuff as they have over there. 

Furthermore, I hope I have the Kremlin at the line, I finally have found a good use for the new territories in Kursk. It is perfect for DRYING LAUNDRY. If you think about it, it all makes sense. Every day in say a city like Kyiv there are tons and tons of wet undried laundry. Now and if you that to dry out in Russia's Kursk region, everybody will be happy don't you think? 

May be we should go to the next item. 

 Item 2) No, this is not an electron pair & short list of elliptic primes.

I only link to the video because I used a small screen shot from it. Of course it's not forbidden to see it anyway but for me there was nothing new in it. The video is about electrons so that's why I did see it. 

Often I have argued that viewing electrons as tiny magnets leads to all kinds of energy problems that if you think about it will make you doubt that electrons are tiny bipolar magnets. Now the energy problems are so weird that I name that crazyland, take for example the electron pair.
When electrons are viewed as magnetic monopoles, a pair is just formed with two opposite magnetic electrons. And that's just the lowest (potential) energy state.
But the Pauli exclusion principle says the electrons in a pair should have opposite spins and that is often said as having an anti-parallel or anti-aligned spin configuration. The crazy part is of course that it 'must be' anti-aligned but if you say something about that likely they will tell you that "If you think you understand QM, you don't understand QM".  

You can judge for yourself, is the picture below from Ali Yazdani really in the highest (potential) energy state? No, not at all. Ok ok we see two vectors or arrows pointing in opposite direction but you can easily see the magnetic field lines going round and round. It might now be the lowest energy state possible because then you must have a north pole against a south pole but all in all it should cost some energy to take apart this configuration of prof Yazdani.

This serves a a perfect example that physics professors never talk about crazyland and always try to make it look as logical as possible. It's not a conspiracy or so, they just can let go of the Gauss law for magnetism.  

The screen shot is a bit fuzzy because it was a small part of the entire screen. Here Ali depicts what they think of an electron pair when it comes to super conductivity, that's why that phonon stuff is included.

Lately I started looking at those prime numbers in my cute 2D elliptic complex numbers. And slowly I am getting to understand a bit more about them. All in all it's has it's specific beauty. And that's more or less always the same with a patch of math:

If you fully understand it, it is always rather beautiful. I never came across a math result and when I understood it, 30 seconds later I am vomitting in my toilet pot. That just never happens, it's always beautiful.

Anyway my new math post for on the other website isn't finished anytime soon, may be I'll hang in an additional post on magnetism with that video from the Fermilab mu - 2 experiment.

The list below was made by me only yesterday, in the left column you see the first 20 prime numbers from the standard day-to-day integers. In our day-to-day integers the number 7 is a prime number because you can't divide by any other integer. But inside that elliptic plane you can find two prime factors, that's why the list says '12 solutions'. That means you basically have two prime numbers and the 12 solutions fall apart in two groups of six each related to one of the primes.   

In case you are interested, the numbers 2 + i and 3 - i are the two factors. If you use the rule that i^2 = -1 + i for the elliptic numbers it is not hard to check that:

(2 + i)(3 - i) = 6 + i - i^2 = 7. 

You can use the list to predict or calculate in advance how much integer solutions there are on some ellipse. If you take the numbers 7, 13 and 19 and you multiply them together you get 7*13*19 = 1729. 

Each number comes with two primes and you can form 8 different product with three factors each. And multiply that by 6 to get 48 integer solutions. If you want check it out at Wolfram's website via the next link, you must replace the 1 by 1729 of course: 

https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=x%5E2%2Bxy%2By%5E2%3D1  

The link looks a bit weird but it means x^2 + xy + y^2 = 1. 

That was it for this week, one very short and one long update. So if you made it to the end I can say thank you for your attention and may be until next week. 

(28 August) I'm sorry but I don't have much time and also have some trouble typing. So just one short item for today:

Item 1) USA-Russia, ready for a reset of relations? & The flying bread.

  Item 1) USA-Russia, ready for a reset of relations? & The flying bread.

Over the weekend some weird news emerged about Ukraine not allowed to use long range weapons because of a reset of relations? At first I wanted to write a long piece about that because a government should not try to achieve conflicting goals as a rule of thumb.

Let me just post the link so in case you want to read it you can do so: 

Politico: US resists lifting restrictions on long-range weapons amid Kursk success to not ruin relations “reset” with Moscow.
https://euromaidanpress.com/2024/08/24/politico-us-resists-
lifting-restrictions-on-long-range-weapons-amid-kursk-success-
to-not-ruin-relations-reset-with-moscow/ 

If this all is true, it sounds like this is from the same source or group of people that wanted to stop Ukraine attacking Russian oil refineries because that would make oil prices jump. While in reality attacking Russian oil refineries in the present oil market would lead to more crude oil on the oil market because Russia can't refine it.
If this reset crap is true it could be from the same level of cognitive functioning.  

Well I don't want to be too negative because the USA has also done tons of good things for Ukraine. But leadership can't talk "We will do whatever it takes for as long as it takes" if behind the scenes all kinds of conflicting policies are activated. Lets leave it with that. 

__________

Ok, now I am actually typing it is all a lot less painful to what I expected so the next update will likely be a normal update.

__________ 

One thing I would like to mention is that the name of the new jet powered Ukrainian drone is indeed terrible. Also in my language so I have to laugh about that. But it looks good, it's a totally new thing; a jet powered drone.

The CVR (that's the Combat Veteran Reacts channel) has a short promo video and the wheels and carrier stuff get uncoupled and the jet drone takes off without any wheels and metal carrier parts. The Kyivpost reporting: 

Title: Russians Will Soon Learn to Pronounce ‘Palyanytsya’ – Ukraine’s New Jet-Propelled Drone.

That was it for this very short update but as always thanks for your attention. 

(23 August 204) Two items for this update:

Item 1) Did Germany cut support for UA? I don't think so.
Item 2) And another weird energy problem, this time with muons.

  Item 1) Did Germany cut support for UA? I don't think so.

Lately the German military aid for Ukraine part in their federal budget was cut in half. I observed a number of speakers concluding that German support was therefore waning, I considered that a bit short sighted but I didn't write about it.

But now even Ben Hodges has come out saying that Germany let her ears hang towards Russia and I thought it was about time for the Nonsensebremse.

Of course such policy decisions often have more than one cause, but the way I see it is that the so called Schuldenbremse is the main cause for this financial decision.

You know, in Germany they take government budgets serious and on all levels of the German state it is forbidden to run deficits. I didn't look it up but German debt levels are about 60% of their GDP.
As a comparison, in my country we have about 500 billion government debt and that's just under 50% of our Dutch GDP. So our two countries are not like say Italy where with borrowed money households can get subsidies for house renovation. That's an interesting way to stimulate the economy, but over here we don't do that kind of weird stuff.

So it's a pity Germany has less money to spend this year and yes it comes at a bad moment but stuff like the Schuldenbremse always come at bad moments. All in all it is good governance, more governments should think a bit more on the long term and do such stuff for themselves.

In Germany the Schuldenbremse is in their constitution so that detail alone shows that it's serious stuff. All in all I expect no decline in German support for Ukraine only a decline in the amount of money available. 

The picture is from the Stern. 

Some observers said the move could also be related to the rise of the AfD in the former DDR parts of the country. And the AfD are much more against aid to Ukraine. It could be, I can't judge that because I don't follow German news in such detail.
__________ 

On the incursion of Kursk by Ukraine I can't still say a thing. What can you do with about 1250 square km Russian territory along the border? I still can't write any detail down because the Kremlin is a bunch of weird dumbo's. Lets not bring them to any meaningful insight whatsoever... 

Beside that it is of course to the Ukrainians to make up what they want and not me. With that lets go to the next item. 

  Item 2) And another weird energy problem, this time with muons.

I found a very good video from a female that really tries to explain how the so called muon g-2 experiment was done at Fermilab. About 100% of the physics community thinks that particles like electrons and muons are always tiny magnets while I since 2015 more and more got convinced that they are magnetic monopoles.
So electron and muon magnetism is just like their electric properties: permanent and monopole. As such when a muon decays into an electron, or a positron as in this experiment, it looks reasonable that it will have the same kind of magnetic charge. 

Now there are all kinds of weird to very weird energy problems related to such particles being tiny magnets. The electron pair is one of the most weird problems, the Pauli exclusion principle says it must have opposite spins. But when electrons have opposite spins that is like giving up that in magnetism only opposites attract.
Beside that, how can an electron pair be stable if the tiny magnetic fields must oppose each other? That just plain fucking weird but always as we enter crazyland, the professional physics professors just don't talk about that.

Often it is said that if you apply a magnetic field, the electrons or in this case the muons align their magnetic monent in order to get to a lower state of potential energy. And yes the official professors also believe that electrons anti-align but lets skip that part of never explained crazyland.

In the muon g-2 explanation for the experiment there is a brand new energy problem: The Fermilab people use the Lorentz force so that the muon beam will go round. As such they must apply a vertical magnetic field or as you see in the picture below where it says 'B pointing out of screen'.   

But the muons when going round always have a horizontal spin, a horizontal magnetic moment in the official Fermilab explanation. Of course that is a crazy thing and therefore they just skip any explanation at all and just don't mention it. Why in this case don't the muons align their tiny magnetic axis with the 1.5 Tesla strong magnetic field?

They only explain stuff with tiny magnets if that sound logical, every time it is just something from crazyland it gets skipped.  

Video title: Measuring Muon g-2
Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHgaapwwLN0

Why the phisics people themselves don't see all the weird energy problems for themselves is a question I have not made much progress with over the years. Ok ok if you are part of a collective like here the class of physics professors, ok you give up a tiny fraction of your individuality and adhere to the norms that shape and form the collective.

I can understand that, but these energy problems are clear cut and very serious to the extend that nature just can't work that way properly. Without doubt the electrons in an electron pair will have opposite spins, but that must be monopole magnetic charges otherwise we are in crazyland...  

That was it for this week, I hope you didn't fall asleep with all that Schuldenbremse and muon stuff. Thanks for your attention. 

(21 August 2024) Two items for this update:

Item 1) Again nothing serious to say & funny HIMARS decoy.
Item 2) Ok ok, a slight improvement in the two elliptical primes.

 Item 1) Again nothing serious to say & funny HIMARS decoy.

On the Kursk incursion again I think it is better if I just keep my mouth shut. So no serious stuff for this update although at the end of this item I link to the old battle of Kursk from WWII.  

It was from a video from Suchominus that started with this funny news: Russian min. of defense reported taking out one of those old HIMARS system, those on caterpillars. That's an M270, sorry if I wrong on that name because I was to lazy to look it up. 

Anyway the US min. of defense came out with a photo from likely the precise same location showing a decoy. Likely one of those inflatables. I didn't save the link so all there is is this screen shot: 

Now in the past I likely have read more as one hundred books on the second world war, but that was about 40 years ago. So when I see present day military analysts poking fun at the situation that there are German tanks rolling again, my mind was a bit empty.

So I decided to look it up and yes it was a big thing in the past during WWII. All in all it was a victory for the Russians who with the help of British intelligence could prepare in advance while there was massive support from the USA for Russia with military hardware.
And yes that is a bit different from the situation we have today. The only constant element is that Russia is ruled again by a not so smart dictator kind of type. The wiki is very long because yes it was a big thing during WWII. Clcik on the picture if you are interested.   

Wiki title: Battle of Kursk.
Link used: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Kursk

It's time to go to the next item.

  Item 2) Ok ok, a slight improvement in the two elliptical primes.

First a small correction on the previous post on the muon g-2 experiment from Fermilab: I was a bit wrong with my thinking on muons that are spin polarized. I thought they spin polarized the muons themselves and after that tried to measure the magnetic dipole moment of the muon. 

That was what I thought was funny: using the magnetic monopole properties of the muons and after that measure the magnetic dipole stuff. But that was not correct; it is nature that seems to do the spin polarization. Those pions they have decay into muons with only one kind of spin. Please remark that in their entire experiment those muon spins never flip once more suggesting that electron & muon magnetism is a magnetic monopole and not a magnetic dipole and that the monopole magnetic charge is a permanent feature of such elementary particles.
__________ 

I was able to make a small improvement on my so called Figure 1 I showed you last week. Instead of taking the two elliptic prime numbers p and q as last week, I saw that you can also take the conjugate. And that is where it becomes a bit more interesting; it seems those kind of two dimensional prime numbers are either on their own or come in conjugate pairs.

As far as I know math professors only use conjugation as something that turns a + into a - or vice versa. In the picture below you must take such a conjugate a little bit different.

If we write a 2D elliptic number as (x, y), in that case the conjugate is given as (x + y, -y). Please remark if you repeat this you get (x, y) back, just like two time flipping a + into a - sign.

For the rest I haven't made much progress with the stuff, but slowly it looks more and more interesting now these prime numbers have some structure in them.

So here is a slightly improved version of the prime elliptic 2D integers, I took the ellipse with a determinant of 7 because 7 is the smallest number that gives rise to my beloved conjugate pair p and q. 

That was it for this update, as always thanks for your attention and let me try to get this stuff uploaded to our most beloved garbage can: the internet. 

(16 August 2024) And another crazy large batch of news coming from the war between Ukraine and Russia. Here just a tiny selection of it all.

Item 1) Just some war related pictures and some text.
Item 2) Is physics really a five sigma science? 

 Item 1) Just some war related pictures and some text.

Now of course I can say some things that UA could do with the newly found Russian territory but once I realized how stupid the Kremlin leadership actually is, better keep my mouth shot.

Ukraine came out stating they want a buffer zone between them and Russia and of course the land of the new incursion will come in handy when it comes to that detail. I am fully on board with this, along more or less the entire Russian-Ukraine border there must be a demilitarized zone where it is forbidden for the Russian military forces to be. Equivalently Ukraine has the right until say 2050 to attack in such a zone if in the future Russian military forces will be there.
In that way a repeat of the Feb 2022 happenings is guaranteed.

So far for the serious stuff, lets look at a few things that are more or less funny. I heard that the Russian army chief with the difficult name 'was aware' of the buildup of UA military forces prior to the incursion. But he did nothing with it... I think that's why he works for Putin, they are both more or less equally stupid. 

I don't know how true or exact it is but today it was rumored that now about 1200 square km are under UA control up from Monday's 1000 square km. The Russian state tv once more decided to hang out the comedian via this type: 

After more than two years Ukraine decides enough is enough and does a little ramming back. And now they are barbarians. As this war drags on and on I more and more start understanding as why the fascists thought of Russians as the famous Untermenschen. I am not a fascist myself but yes there are some weird things in Russian culture.

In the next picture you see an amazing amount of POW's, there were about 102 today and that is a huge number. I think the photo below is beautiful, may be you can call it war art. Likely if all these POW's knew they would be part of such a beautiful piece of art they all are one hundred % proud of themselves.

And I skipped a thousand things but now it's time to go to the next item. 

 Item 2) Is physics really a five s science? 

Often people from physics brag that they are a good science because of the five sigma rule. An experimental result should have at least a significance of five sigma before a particular hypothesis is rejected and the alternative accepted. 

That is often how they sell their stuff to the public. The fact that there is all kinds of experimental evidence just missing is never talked about. There is no repeated Stern-Gerlach experiment done in 100 years of time, there is zero evidence that electron spin is probabilistic in nature and not permanent and on top of it all there is not evidence whatsover that electrons are indeed tiny magnets...

A few years back there was a lot of talk in the physics community of so called new physics related to what is known as the muon g-2 experiment. It was only this week that I decided to take a look at some of the details and it was as funny as could be.

Muons are a cousin of the electron and I expect muons just like electrons to be magnetic monopoles. So when muons decay into electrons it is expected that they will have the same spin aka the same monopole magnetic charge. 

So what is the funny thing? Well they start the experiment with a bunch of so called polarized muons. They didn't say it explicitly but that can only mean spin polarized muons. In my understanding of magnetism you can only easily split electrons and muons in the two magnetic classes because they are magnetic monopoles.
If muons and electrons really are tiny magnets, they would behave rather neutral under application of magnetic fields. But you can easily split the particles in their two classes with a magnetic field once more strongly suggesting they carry monopole magnetic charge.

Ok, the idiots at Fermilab separated the muons and used only one type of muon and what do they do? Well they try to measure the muon magnetic dipole moment...

The only problem is that for a dipole moment you need two poles so I hope you understand why I think this is funny. They use the monopole properties to get the muons for their experiment and after that these muons must be tiny magnets.  

And they always measure some frequency, let me be totally honest that I do not understand why these frequencies occur but all that's measured is some frequency.
May be if I would work in such an experimental environment myself for a couple of months or even a few years, I would develop some insight in why such frequencies are generated. But that is not the case so I just don't know.

What I do know however is the fact that because electrons and muons are magnetic monopoles they behave very different under application of magnetic fields. So at Fermilab if they would use non polarized muons they would get a mess from the get go. So that's why they need that spin selection in the first place.    

There's plenty of internet resources out there but never forget these people always think of electrons and muons as tiny bipolar magnets. So yes you can learn something from it but not all what is told can be correct. For myself speaking I do not understand why physics people don't understand the energy problems there are with their version of physical reality...

Anyway here is one of the advertisement video's for finding 'new physics' and as always click on the picture to see this video:

That was it for this week, lets hope more countries will see the nonsense of trying to keep the war inside the borders of Ukraine. Ukraine has the right to self defense and as such there is no reason whatsoever that Russia is spared from that very fate.
As always thanks for your attention and let me try to upload this to our common garbage can: the internet. 

(14 August 2024) The items for this update:

Item 1) But then Stalin overcame his submission to Darth Vader and...
Item 2) Ok ok here are two elliptical primes. 

  Item 1) But then Stalin overcame his submission to Darth Vader and...

Yes the  talk of the town is of course the incursion into Kurks and Belgorod, but am I supposed to comment of the stuff the Kremlin says? Sometimes I am very willing to go and sit on my heels so that we can have eye contact while speaking, but the present Kremlin talk is so stupid that is just light years below me. No I am not going to comment on it at all.

Of course the Kursk situation is very interesting to follow and it makes we wonder that in case wants to liberate those parts of their country again will they use the same (artillery) tactics as they do inside Ukraine? First level every building there is and after that send in the meatwaves?

Today I want you to see a video that is about Russian propaganda that is indeed very very weird. It's a series of 2500+ state sponsored books and you can get them in a lot of book shops.     

It is weird beyond recognition. In my entire life I have never ever seen such weird stuff in my own country. Only once back in the 80-ties of a long lost century I had a small booklet that 'explained' how the KGB worked and that was clearly some translated piece of propaganda. In itself it was very interesting because KGB agents went from village to village in order to rape children. But that's only one weird book in my entire life. In Russia it is all from another dimension and I am glad to see they do like Unkel Adolf just like they love Stalin.

It's kinda weird that the two men who are likely responsible for the most Russian deaths in the entire history of Russia play such an important role in the present day Russian state sponsored books propaganda. But the last two decades a lot of new statues of Stalin are erected, may that indicate the Russian population loves another cleanup of their entire society? Who knows, well you can now enjoy a few of the screen shots of book covers I made:

I don't know what to think of it. Of course it is fiction and as such more or less anything should be allowed to go, but this seems to be state sponsored stuff. Why the hell should a state do such weird things?

Anyway, if you want to see the video or a part of it you can click on the next picture:

Video title: The Most Insane Russian Propaganda.
Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCI6es9G0oo

Before we close just one remark about that fire at the UA nuclear plant. The Russians claim that this was caused by shelling done by Ukraine. So that is another "They fire on their own nuclear power plants".
As it looks as a society you can view this as a mentally ill society.

Lets go to the next item. 

 Item 2) Ok ok here are two elliptical primes. 

Last week I showed you that very good video about the Eisenstein prime numbers. And that made me think about my own 2D elliptical complex numbers and do they have prime numbers too?  

And once I looked at my own version of a complex plane and wondered what integer numbers are prime and what are composite numbers made of more than one prime, all of a sudden I understood a bit more about the number of integer solutions on all those ellipses.

In the picture below I show you the ellipse that has all numbers with a determinant of 7. There are 12 of those integer points and as such we have two groups of 6 integer points that each represent an elliptic prime.

It's a bit confusing may be, but my prime numbers come in groups of six. That's a bit like on the real numbers you have 5 as a prime number but then you know that -5 is also a prime number. In case you haven't seen the video scroll to down below and watch it first.

Now what is the problem I could solve?

Well there are two prime numbers with a determinant of 7, lets name them p and q. How much integer points are there with a determinant of 49?  

That is now easy to answer, p^2, q^2 and pq are all integer points with a determinant of 7^2 = 49. I forgot to make a screen shot of the Wolfram website that indeed says it has 18 solutions.

I think that if I write a new math post it's about this small but very cute math detail.  

That was it for this post, as always thanks for your attention and see you in a future update. Updated on 16 Aug: Screenshots and a link to the Wolfram website if you are interested in that.

Link used: https://www.wolframalpha.com/input?i=x%5E2%2Bxy%2By%5E2%3D49

As you see, the two primes form 12 solutions and their three possible products give together 18 solutions. End of this extra update. 

(09 Aug 2024) Lately there were some disturbances on the financial markets for a large part related to a stock market crash in Japan. That was caused by the Japanese central bank raising from 0.1% to 0.35%...
Of course the only reason they would raise if they have inflation.

Well a few years back I once remarked that you must never ever behave like the central bank of Japan has done for decades now. I remarked they basically can't raise rates and as such not use that as a weapon or a tool to counter inflation.  

Today someone from the Japanese central bank came out stating that they wouldn't do it again given all that turmoil in the markets. And that basically means that if they have inflation related problems, that must be solved in other ways... Lets go to the two items for today: 

Item 1) Ukraine attacks Russia in the Kursk region.
Item 2) The Eisenstein primes, a very good video on that detail.

 Item 1) Ukraine attacks Russia in the Kursk region.

When I wrote the last update two days ago this large attack was already underway but I was totally unaware of it. Anyway there is not that much news out but it seems the Ukrainians are about 15 km deep inside Russia and try to spread out.

So compared to the gains made by Russia inside Ukraine this is big. A local newspaper joked more or less that since Napoleon and Hitler this is the third army that crosses Russian borders. And if you look at it that way it is indeed a significant thing.  

But let me not comment on things that are all unknown, after all even the UA government is tight lipped on this but the US White House has asked for some clarification but further let us also in the dark.  

Now in the last update I said military aid to Ukraine should be a bit more based on the fact that Ukraine has a right to defend itself. And yes I understand a lot of people want to contain the war to Ukraine and yes I too agree we should avoid spreading the war to other European nations. But I see little logic in containing it to Ukraine itself, if Russia stages attacks from her territory why should there not be war? 

Well I have two video's for you on this significant detail, in the picture below you see that Ukrainians also have that extra coverage against drone attacks so it's not only the Russians that do that. And in the video from the Centre for Eastern Studies you can see also a few air planes are involved... 

Video title: Ukrainian troops attack INSIDE Russia. What's going on in the Kursk region?
Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kTKL5n0IeQ

The second video is from Anders Puck Nielsen who just came back from a holiday and more or less planned a video on his opinion on social media??? I didn't know you were into blah blah stuff like that Anders.
Anyway Anders just like me can't say a lot until more is known but one thing is clear: the Kremlin is getting a cookie from her own dough.  

Ukraine's attack into the Kursk region / Anders Puck Nielsen.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4mg1ZUb-7s 

Lets leave Ukraine with that for this week and go to the next item. 

 Item 2) The Eisenstein primes, a very good video on that detail.

These Eisenstein integers and prime numbers lie in that standard complex plane. They are very closely related to those elliptic complex numbers I looked at last year and this year. To be honest I did not look at what integer numbers inside my own elliptic complex numbers are prime numbers and what are composite numbers.

The video is very good and as the title says it is a visual introduction to these kind of numbers. So even if you are rather bad at math calculations, this video is much more visual. It is one of those video series that go under the name SoME and that means Summer of Math Exhibitions or something like that. I think that SoME stuff is a project from the 3BlueOneBrown guy and he must have plenty of help from others because it's a relatively large project every year. The video's are often very good so if you like math I definitely advice you to look up a few of them every year.  

The omega you see below is the so called third power of unity in the complex plane, that means omega to the third power gives one. I would have taken omega to be the sixth root of unity because after all you get six of those 'units' anyway but I don't want to criticize the choice of the video maker in any way shape or form.  

As always click on the image to see the video on Youtube:

That was it for this week, thanks for your attention and let Russia burn for the rest of this century because they just don't stop their aggression. And don't forget the right to self defense is a better way to help Ukraine and not all that micro managing stuff like this weapon can be used here but not there and that other weapon can't be used here but there it's allowed...  

(07 Aug 2024) The items for today are: 

Item 1) The Telegraph on how Ukraine can win the war.
Item 2) Google AI dominates the math Olympia. 

 Item 1) The Telegraph on how Ukraine can win the war.

At "Defense in depth" at the Telegraph they had a video out with about five ways stuff must go different in the war of Russia and Ukraine. Well you can say a lot about that because now it is a patch blanket of what is allowed and what not. 

Some countries let a particular weapon system be used inside Russia while other countries won't allow for that with the same kind of weapon system. For example my country and Belgium when it comes to the use of F16 stuff.  

For myself speaking I often use the principle that Ukraine has the right to defend itself. Take those glide bombs, they have no heat footprint because they just glide and as such are hard to detect. Missiles and rockets always emit a lot of heat but glide bombs don't. Well because Russia attacks Ukraine constantly with this stuff, Ukraine has the right of self defense and as such can shoot down the Russian air craft if it is inside Ukraine or not. 

Don't forget war is always a dynamical thing and as such the Russian will always try to exploit the situation. And if they won't get attacked if they launch from their own territory, that only rewards and enforces such behavior. So if I as a democratic person could vote on it, I would vote for UA having the right to get weaponry that takes out those Russian air planes that do the launching of those glide bombs...

Here is the video, as always click on the picture for the video:   

Video title: Ukraine is surviving - here's what it needs to win | Defence in Depth. Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=acXu77vcF0Q

It's more or less a goal that at the end of this year there will be about 20 F-16's in Ukraine, problem is of course the number of trained pilots. Since the COVID stuff there seems to be a backlog and yes pilots from other nations need their training too...

But we now have a tiny baby start of a possible UA air force so may be one day they will have a fleet of 120+ F-16's.

What I don't understand is that Russia is saying they will shoot them down, why would you do such a nasty thing? They are beautiful to see and why would you shoot such a thing down? Only crazy persons would do such weird things...  

Ok, I have two more links for you:

And yes, that is important too: Using fixed wing air power as a supplemental air defense but again I say something must be done about those glide bombs...

Lets go to the next item. 

 Item 2) Google AI dominates the math Olympia. 

The International Math Olympia is famous for it's rather tough questions you must answer in a limited amount of time. My estimation is that a lot of the participating students are actually smarter as me when it comes to math. But they are still humans and as such will have a very strong tendency to conform to the norms and behaviors of the group they will belong to so although smarter, they will never find or study 3D complex numbers.

And now in the year 2024 that Google AI has won a silver medal at this competition? On the one hand I don't like that just like say the graphical artists don't like it if their works get copied by text to image generative AI.

But hey I use computers all the time for studying math, from diagonalizing matrices to integrals solved by that Wolfram math stuff to all kinds of graphical programs and applets. And some of that Wolfram integral finding stuff is rather super human too, but stuff like that can never be used to find the answer to just one Olympia question.

The video channel Mind Your Decisions has a short video out on the stuff. He remarks that Google AI has some advantage by getting more time and also a human is doing the translation from the IMO question to something the Google AI can solve. 

All in all it is remarkable that you can use machine learning for solving a  complicated geometry problem like below in the picture. Now geometry puzzles like this are century even millennia old, but that AI can solve a lot of them is very interesting. 

Here is the video:

That brings us to the end of this update.  

(02 Aug 2024) The items for this update:

Item 1) Attacks in Mali & Syria + A large prisoner swap with Russia.
Item 2) Anton on all the stuff humans made, it's a lot...

 Item 1) Attacks in Mali & Syria + A large prisoner swap with Russia.

Weirdly Ukrainian operatives are supporting groups in Mali and now also Syria to stage attacks against Russian. In Mali the Wagener group was targeted and that resulted in huge losses. But Wagner can take huge losses as we saw in earlier stages of the war. In Syria a military base was attacked and of course that is a serious loss of face for the Russians if they can't protect their overseas military bases...

In an unexpected move a lot of prisoners were exchanged and a whole lot of countries took part in it. Turkey helped into being more or less a mediator, so thanks Turkey for you support on this.

I found a Fox news article and I decided why not? Mostly I avoid Fox news because it is always so shallow one dimension stupid stuff. Only once I linked to a video from Fox news but that was back during the financial crises and I did that because the video was so horribly bad that it became comical. It was some weird right winger talking about the problems with the Euro at that time, now of course we always have trouble with our common coin but what they can make of that at Fox news is often not a reliable picture of what goes on. 

Anyway it looks like a lot of diplomacy that finally gave some fruit in the form of this prisoner exchange. Click on the picture for the Fox thing:

If Evan Gershkovich did actually ask this (remark it is still a Fox news article), that says something about the guy. It also says he's likely not broken mentally so that is a good thing if correct.
__________

At last the first batch of F-16's have arrived, it's only six or so but it's a start. Well lets hope for the best and I only want to repeat that I hope Ukraine will get the weaponry for taking out the Russian planes that push those glide bombs on their lethal path.
Please no weak knees again this time, Russia won't splinter into warring war lords that are nuclear armed from just a few less Russian air planes...  

An article from France24:

Lets go to the next item. 

 Item 2) Anton on all the stuff humans made, it's a lot...

Anton Preskov found an interesting website where the total biomass of living things like plants, animals and fungi are visualized as cubes. On my computer this website did not work while as far as I know everything is up to date over here. So likely the website was down for some reason, you can try for yourself if you want: https://biocubes.net/

It is all not much of deep science but the way it is all visualized is very pleasant. Of course these are all estimates and I have no clue if for example the number of tons of say virus on earth is actually this or that tonnage.  

Anyway the point of the website and video is comparing all biomass to the stuff humans made. And in our history we have made for example an amzaing amount of bricks. And an amazing amount of concrete and asphalt.  

It's amazing so it's a tiny bit frustrating that I can't open the website. So there is only the video from Anton, here it is: 

Video title: As of Now, Humans Built More Stuff Than Total Mass of Biosphere Combined.
Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkeukmdf65U

Just one giga ton is a lot, that's a billion ton or a million times a million kilo's. And the estimation says there is 900 Gt of plant material on earth. And we animal file need all that plant stuff in order just to be alive. For oxygen, for food and of course building material like wood. 

Ok let me end this update and as always thanks for your attention and may be see you next week or so. 

(31 July 2024) The two items for this update: 

Item 1) Russian rate hike, will it work & 8 finance ministers tell...
Item 2) New math post on a simple to understand open problem.

 Item 1) Russian rate hike, will it work & 8 finance ministers tell...

On Friday 26 July the Russian central bank hiked their (lowest) interest levels by 200 basis points from 16 to 18%. As an educated guess it is very likely this won't be the last hike. Will it work? 

Well that depends on how much of the Russian economy is influenced by this rate hike. At present there is still a growing part that turns into a war economy and they just get paid by the government in order to produce stuff that is needed in the war. Likely this part of the economy gets it's money upfront and they don't have to worry about finding loans.  

As an example it was lately rumored that new recruits from the Moscow region get up to 22 thousand $ large enlistment bonuses, as such the war effort in itself is highly inflatory.

And lately Joe Blogs reported on the ongoing Yuanization of the Russian economy, if Russians can get loans in Yuan against Chinese interest rates, they won't give a shit about what the Russian central bank does.   

I think that governor Elvira Nabiullina is fighting an uphill battle for as long as this war will last and may be even longer. Click on the picture for a Reuters report on the Russian rate hike:

Sometimes people think that the economical sanctions don't work because the Russian GDP grows faster as say that of Germany or my own country. It's a bit like explaining to a flatlander that the earth is a globe. People who only look at such a number as the GDP don't understand much of all the in's and out's of an entire economy.

If your central bank has already raised rates to 16% that is a clear sign of an emergency, whatever the fucking GDP number is. The high GDP is mostly a reflection of all that money the Russian government throws at it, it has nothing to do with a healthy economy...

Last week a group of 8 EU finance ministers came out stating the obvious that the sanctions are working. And as far as I know reality they are right of course it works. But also of course Russia will always try to evade and mitigate the effects of sanctions.
Just like all that dark oil tanker stuff, of course it mitigates a bit for damage done by the oil price cap but it's a lot of work and also sucks up capital because somebody has to buy these old oil tankers.

These economical sanctions will always be a work in progress, may be you can better say a sanctions regime is always dynamical in nature. It is not you write a simple rule down like "Russian economy, can you please drop dead on the spot?" Well don't be surprised if that won't happen.   

But we still need more sanctions according to the 8 fin ministers and with that I agree too. The Guardian had an article about this detail of the 8 finmin's:

Let's move on to the next item. 

 Item 2) New math post on a simple to understand open problem.

Last week I finished a new post on a relatively easy to understand problem: What is the maximum value is you add a bunch of sine functions? 

If you just add two sine functions with different periods you can end with stuff that makes you wonder what the maximum is. That's example 1 in the new post.

Example 2 is about a sine function and 10 equally placed time lags or if you want translations. Now the summing of sines becomes periodic with respect to the number of sines you sum up. But here at least it is clear there is some maximum value although I was to lazy to actually hunt it down and find it.

In example 3 there is the real beef of the problem I could not solve 3 or 4 weeks ago. I decided to formulate it as a sum of sine functions but you can frame similar questions on the unit circle in the complex plane we all know and love.

As far as I know this is a completely useless problem to solve, in case you succeed in cracking it likely there is not other branch of math or no other math problem that also waited hundreds of years for solvation.
Likely it is not as cracking the 3D complex numbers and that leads the way to all of those beautiful p-dimensional complex numbers. It looks like this problem is a stand alone but on the other hand I could not solve it and may be if I would have been able to solve it, it would also say something about other branches of math. I can't exclude that because I just don't fucking know how to solve this infinite sum of sine's...  

Anyway click on the picture below in case you want to take a look at this easy to understand but hard to solve math problem:

That was it for this update, thanks for your attention. 

(26 July 2024) Two items for this update:

Item 1) The illicit trade in computer chips towards Russia.
Item 2) Ten interesting people and their TOE's.

 Item 1) The illicit trade in computer chips towards Russia.

It seems there are still a lot of computer chips going to Russia via China. Well that is not surprising since these two countries are neighbors and share a long border, but a few pounds less my dear China would be nice.

After all those chips are also used in the production of all kinds of weaponry used to kill Ukrainians. It seems the White House is considering more and or fine tuning of sanctions, in particular at Chinese banks and of course the chip makers and traders.

Reuters had a rather technical report on this detail with a focus on Hong Kong. Click on the picture to read the Reuters report.

In another interesting development today the Russian central bank will make a new rate decision. Interesting to see if they raise from their what is it, 16 or 17% to even higher.
In that regard on this financial detail, lately I mentioned the so called Yuanization of the Russian economy and if that is indeed a significant thing, the rate setting central bank policies will work less and less.  

To put it simple: If people can borrow in Yuan instead of Ruble, it does not matter much what the Ruble rate is... 

Lets go to the next item. 

  Item 2) Ten interesting people and their TOE's.

No electron rant today but 10 so called Theories Of Everything today or 10 TOE's as it is abbreviated. It is about physics of course because where else would they do such weird stuff?

Now if you want to take the present theories in physics and you want to expand that into a much much wider framework known as a TOE, there is always a giant risk into such an endeavor. If in the original theory just a small detail was wrong, in that case the entire new TOE will be wrong also. And of course in physics what is wrong is the idea that magnetic monopoles do not exist in general and in particular that electrons must be tiny magnets.

Well I think that electrons are magnetic monopoles and it is a pity that nobody does any kind of experiment to confirm what the official version is versus the monopole variant. Such an experiment could be as simple as separating liquid molecular oxygen into it's two spin states, try to get something in a balloon and check if the balloon behaves as having a magnetic charge.
After that try to flip the electron spin states and you're ready. But only problem is of course to get the results published, it will be very very hard to crack the peer review barrier. Anyway I am not going to try such a thing because likely this peer review barrier will be too high.

But this is not supposed to be an electron rant, in the video you see 10 very different theories of everything. Often these are some complicated math models like Stephen Wolfram with his graphs. The one theory is crazier as the other while the composer of the video thinks these are all very smart people. String theory is on the list also but as far as I know they always model the electron as a tiny bipolar magnet so beside all the other weird things going on with string theory like the many dimensions it needs, the electron detail too makes this a very wrong theory.

People from string theory often think they are the only game in town and that is correct: It is more a game as say a piece of science. It's a completely piece of shit theory because there is no experimental proof to be found now or in a thousand years.

Among the ten people with their TOE's there are also more charming and less arrogant ones like that surf guy who discovered a piece of math known as E8 and thinks there are elementary particles in that math group. Well I have said before that the human brain is very bad at doing math, I know that because I am a human also.

The video is about half an hour long and the order of the the theories is of course done by they guy that made the video, it has nothing to do with what I consider the most weird, stupid or brilliant theory. So click on the picture for the video:

Video title: Ranking the 10 Best Metaphysical Theories
Link used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xaql9BQWN_c

So you just saw 10 "very smart" people each having their own version of a theory of everything while all those years they were just to fucking stupid to see all the energy problems we have with say electrons as tiny magnets.

If they can't see such simple things that could easily be verified in a not to expensive lab, why should the rest of their theory bear any value at all?  

The official version of the electron pair is that is has to have opposite spin and if the electrons are tiny magnets that should look at the next pictures. And all those 10 weirdo's work their entire life in physics never realizing that there is an energy problem here... 

Last year I made this picture for repeated use in this year so here it is once more in all of it's glory: The Pauli exclusion principle says the electron spin numbers must be different... 

That was it for this update, as always thanks for your attention. 

(24 July 2024) The two items for this update:

Item 1) More action against that Russian dark oil tanker fleet.
Item 2) Searching for 4D complex numbers.

 Item 1) More action against that Russian dark oil tanker fleet.

There was just much to much news like Joe Biden's withdrawal from the US presidential elections, a diplomatic visit to China by the UA, drone attacks, oil attacks and so on and so on. So let's just restrict it to that dark or shadow Russian tanker fleet trying to evade and avoid the sanctions there are on Russian oil. 

On 05 June I wrote for the first time about that detail of all those old oil  tankers that are now in use so that Russia can sell oil above the price cap. And now only three weeks later there seems to be a coalition of 45 nations forming to tackle this particular problem. So that's swift and fast, something we can't say about university professors...

Now I am the first one to admit I don't have any insight at all how this all legally works. A few principles are clear to me like the fact all nations have right to access the oceans of this world. But of course nations bordering the seas and oceans also have rights, for example if there could be an impending emergency like a large oil spill from an ill or uninsured tanker, they likely have the right to do something about that. 

Now at the UK they just have a new government and guess what? The new UK pm Keir Starmer is a lawyer...;). Anyway the UK will try to lead this coalition so that's a good thing.  

I have two links to articles for you, the first one is from the FT:

UK targets more Russian-linked oil tankers with sanctions.
https://www.ft.com/content/9016682b-ef2c-4b54-b8f5-d330703abfb1

And one from Lloyds, no not the US SecDef but likely it is that insurance company.  

UK leads 45-country coalition crackdown on ‘Russia’s shadow fleet’.
https://www.lloydslist.com/LL1149955/UK-leads-45-country-
coalition-crackdown-on-Russias-shadow-fleet 

And a quote as found in both sources:

Announcing the UK sanctions against the further 11 tankers, Keir Starmer, UK prime minister, said: “We will not allow Russia’s shadow fleet, and the dirty money it generates, to flow freely through European waters and put our security at risk.”

Well I am glad people are working on this because the last thing we need is another broken oil tanker. With that lets go to the next item. 

 Item 2) Searching for 4D complex numbers.

At most once a year I check if the internet search engines still act properly when searching for 3D or 4D complex numbers. So on duckduckgo I searched for 4D complex numbers and just as in the past in the image section the results are always impressive.

That must be a bit like how Julius Cesar must have felt when later he spoke the famous "Veni vidi vici" words. I still have destroyed all competition yes even the images about quaternions that can also be viewed as 4D complex numbers.

Suppose there are 100 thousand math professors worldwide and you would ask each and every one of the what are 4D complex numbers? Likely you will get the quaternion answer a 100 thousand times.

But internet search engines don't lie: Somehow more popular or more relevant things keep float on top of the results of such searches. And since the pages of the other website started ranking high when people search for 3D or 4D complex numbers, it has stayed that way.    

A few months back I saw an interview with Roger Penrose and out of the blue he started to tell that the quaternions were not that fantastic extension of the complex numbers. He didn't elaborate beyond that but likely Roger has found out that you can't do any form of complex analysis on these quaternions from Sir Hamilton.
Now the 4D complex numbers as I crafted them do allow for all the complex analysis you can ever dream of. I wrote most of the stuff in the year 2018 so that's now back about 6 years. And guess what, as far as I know nothing has happened in the brain of just one of those hypothetical 100 thousand math professors...

That internet search result stuff is indeed interesting, sometimes it goes ok like with the 3D and 4D complex numbers. But when it comes to electron spin and the logical detail that likely electrons carry monopole magnetic charge and are not tiny magnets, the search results are still a total mess. No veni vidi vici there observed at all...

So the electron thingeling still does not resonate at all with a wider audience and that's just one of the things in life when you only can say "It is what it is".   

For those who want to take a look at those 4D complex numbers, on my other website it is a category on it's own but if you check that category it is of course the latest post is seen first. So for an introduction to the stuff you must find the older posts on 4D complex numbers.

Click on the picture below to land at the category of 4D complex numbers on the website 3Dcomplexnumbers.net. In the picture you see a screen shot of such an internet search combined with some robot stuff: 

That was it for this update. Thanks for your attention and let me try to upload this stuff to our beloved garbage bin: the internet. 

For the time being I think I keep the next picture as a 'closing logo' indicating you are at the end of this homepage. It was to cute to throw away, the math is utterly simple and I hope a tiny bit surprising.
