What Linde described beginning at about 12:58 -- the problem of how to explain how the Big Bang started at exactly the same moment throughout the small hot dense clump of primordial mass -- finally helps me understand why Feynman assigned a strange homework problem in a class at Caltech that I audited in the 1980s. He called it the "firing squad" problem. Suppose there are N members of the firing squad arranged in a row. Each member can communicate only locally.. only with its nearest neighbor on its right and its nearest neighbor on its left. They can communicate only at regular periodic intervals (like cellular automata). None of them know how many members are in the squad. All of them are programmed with the same communication & firing algorithm. Their goal is to all fire at exactly the same moment. Assume that at a random moment, one of them initiates the (local) communication that is to eventually lead to all of them firing at the same moment. Design the simplest algorithm that achieves the simultaneous firing goal. Feynman didn't tell us why he wanted that algorithm. But it would solve the problem Linde described, in a 1-dimensional toy primordial universe. So I'm guessing the Big Bang problem is what motivated Feynman to assign the "firing squad" homework. I submitted my solution, which seemed reasonably simple. But I don't know if it was the simplest algorithm, because Feynman didn't review any of the answers with the class.

This was a great segment. The question I was left with is: How do dark energy (DE) and dark matter (DM) factor into these theories? At some point they must be accounted for. What are the possible mechanisms for integrating such? Also (and I think [maybe] relatedly), the previous segment here on DESI indicates the employment of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAOs) as measures of the effects of DE & DM. I am not clear on what mechanism in Inflation would manifest BAOs (or if Inflation is required for BAOs to form). My first intuition is that BAOs formed after the Inflationary period (were they "locked in" during or after cooling?), and also, that they manifest across larger spatial scales. Still, given the euclidean nature of Space-Time, it would seem BAOs are dependent on Inflation. So any effects of DE and DM on BAOs should also inform the parameters for Inflation. Am I thinking about this correctly?

[@isatousarr7044]

Inflationary cosmology suggests that the universe experienced a rapid expansion in the first moments after the Big Bang, smoothing out its initial conditions and leading to the large-scale structure we see today. This theory addresses key problems like the flatness and horizon issues, and supports observations such as the uniformity of the cosmic microwave background.

29:12 the negative “pressure” is calculating time that is derived from the energy and mass equations, as they relate to c^2 where time is = -√seconds and you get this holographically represented by calculating the eigenvector (x) right past the “theoretical event horizon” at the moment of singularity

Prior to inflation, the universe was within an order of magnitude of the Planck length. The early universe was very flat. Entropy increases to further flatten any variance. The forward flow of time is just a return to nothing.

[@simesaid]

So far as we know (according to the Lambda-CDM model of cosmology) the universe began from a random quantum fluctuation. It may not be entirely satisfying, but that's where we are. It's either that or a cyclic universe model like Penrose's Conformal Cyclic Cosmology, in which the universe constantly expands and then contracts again, forever. But even in this model there _had_ to be a beginning at some point in the past... Have a great day!

[@DavidFMartin]

You don’t need expansion if everything is still connected via a dimension of zero length and size. Or effectively a singularity. At the start of the universe everything was at a singularity point, there were no dimensions and everything was connected at the same non point place. After the universe began expanding maybe this single point dimension remained and all matter and energy has become entanglement within this point and still is. This would also explain why entangled particles in our 3D (4D if you accept time as another dimension) universes can affect partner particles across huge distances instantaneously. Basically the conditions where everything was compressed into a singularity are still in place and we are all connected to a point via higher dimensions to (or lower dimensions) via this original start point.

[@DomenG33K]

There is to much stuff to produce a singularity. If we condense all the matter we know of it can't fit into a single point since we reach plank density before that point.

Hasn't there been some discussion of that re the anomalous value for vacuum energy, for instance, considered unlikely per string theory? I suppose we'd still want measures of likelihood at some broader level, setting the range of possible values for a given parameter for instance. Not to mention the implications if false vacuums could be produced artificially, as a paper by Guth from the '90s seems to assert.

[@vitr1916]

In my opinion, we may see boundaries of the inflation when a system is changing seriously. For example, Earth may be changed if many keys of earth elements (including livings…) are making critical changes; The solar system may be changed if one or two planets are destroyed; our galaxy may be different if one or more solar systems are changing their shapes. If things from a system are adapting changes quickly from the inflation, then the system is going back originally state faster, and we may not see its effects.

Hope and easy money with as many people wishing to get a life like Anndre Yate and easy life and money m. But you forget cosmology and metaphysics ring all the way back to Aristotle's unmoved mover or the prime mover depending on how you interpret the Greek and I find this to actually be quite compelling considering that he's well aware of cause and effect. He understands that you need something outside of a system in order to start that system which isn't a part of it nor is it affected by it otherwise it would be contradictory and circular reasoning.. These days you guys have made it extremely complex mathematically rigorous such as string theory and the fine tuning argument but I just look at all of these as the teleological argument for the existence of a creator found in the laws of physics mathematics and logic itself. I'll be attacked on that position saying that I'm anthropomorphic and that my worldview is limited to that which I have been taught here on earth using the very limited experimental tools that we actually have available to us so we really have no idea if the physics works here the same as it works hundreds of light years away we just assume that it done. We sure have done a number on our students in terms of critical thinking and pedology and they're nothing more but record playback and clones of whatever the education system and the research subjects which are popular and can get them funding and impact points as opposed to research which they think has merits. I'm a new scientist or not a scientist but I have written the research ethics guidelines for research on human subjects in non-medical or non-medically invasive setting such as psychology sociology etc and I was a bioethicist and sat on the IRB for research on human subjects in medical issues as the legal counsel to the IRB on these issues being very deeply schooled and the Helsinki protocols which are direct results of the Nuremberg trials and even now the US common rule which is what they've enacted to limit and regulate how human research is done using federal funding from the every executive branch in the United States.. There's everything from mandatory reporting of any negative effects, the makeup of the IRB and how you deal with problems that were unforeseen that could have harmful impacts on your study population or your cohort so not only did I take special classes to fulfill this role but I'm a rare hybrid I'm a scientist and illegal expert on the global level.. Kind of funny considering I never graduated high school I had dyslexia and ADHD but they said my potential my IQ was extraordinarily high and when I turned early twenties I shut off like a rocket and didn't stop for 12 years of formal education earning three diplomas all the way up to a doctorate but not the doctor that I had wished the doctorate which I was manipulated into doing because I'm a fourth generation lawyer.. However I think I'm the only lawyer in my practice area who practiced at the level at which I practiced who is educated in a state school not an ivy League school or a school in the financial center and I didn't just perform a little I performed Mike I was an alien and currently I am now a dual citizen so I am an alien and if you think that the people who killed my client have stopped thinking about me you know nothing of the Russian culture is I'll be looking over my shoulder for the rest of my life and worried about my children for the rest of my life and no father should ever have to think about that and shame on the Swiss Federal authorities and the Swiss intelligence services for not intervening and to a situation where an individual was forced to take a stand against the nation state and its utterly corrupt and psychotic yet highly intelligent leader who wants to rebuild the former Soviet Union and see himself as Peter the Great II. Be lucky if we don't have our species in our related in the next 10 years due to various existential threats and it's much more serious than most people would ever want to believe and they lie to themselves and order to make themselves able to sleep better at night. If you had any idea what a nice person I was kind-hearted and how much I tried to follow the law as my ally not to bend it or break it what happened to me with absolutely unjust and not a single person on this Earth Care and some of the people who I thought were my friends the other lawyers who I was making millions of dollars per year and fees as soon as I was done with my work and my position they evaporated into thin Jd. What's funny is there's a group of people including my own family members who think they know what happened to me and have developed their own narrative due to a lack of me being able to discuss any of it under Swiss professional secrecy so there's only a handful of people who know the truth and I've been treated so poorly by my own family I've almost been assassinated three times tortured wants abroad and one of those assassination attempts was ultraviolet requiring five surgeries thus far and one more to go.. The Americans had to come to Switzerland and do their job for them and I was made aware of this by one of the men who was watching me for weeks on a bench able to see where I lived and where I went to get food every morning.. The founders in my firm were former radio-free America journalist so we had a plan to go in and spread the money out so much that no one person had so much control and so much power that they could pull off something like Putin did and if you listen to his speech on December and '99 on the 31st just before the new year rings out and red square which is extremely area under the context absolutely everything he says is a complete bold-faced lie and that's exactly what he said to the oligarchs which is why they allowed him to take control and it's not that he's unintelligent he's very intelligent he just ladks a conscious and is asocial. If you could ever comprehend the other lack of justice that I have had to suffer and endure over the last 15 years it was shock the conscience once you were made aware that everything I said was true...

One must remember that inflation was proposed to explain the unresonable flatness and homogeneity of the observed universe. The other option of course, is that the initial conditions were so perfect that perturbations were so minimal as to have little effect until the era of recombination.

How many times could an event in all of its aspects and outcomes take place until it is not actually the same event but becomes a form of mutation of the original event, nature loves to mutate...😂👍

We have made great advances in materialistic space exploration searching for answers, yet a religion such as Islam is observing the spectacle where Allah has already created ' life in otherworlds'. There was a documentary on a Muslim channel explaining our solar system, the one moon planet earth and the role of giant planet Jupiter protecting us with gravity against the meteor asteroid belt. The 8 planet solar system, is this a design to sustain life by a creator or chance that has occurred many times in the observable universe.

Try pretending like you were raised elsewhere. Those who think their supernatural is over all are not people who even look for reality. Save the fairy stories for empty heads.
