I recommend Sabine Hossenfelder many videos where she talks about how we have *NO* evidence to suggest that there exists simple, beautiful unified theories that explain reality.. and therefore spending limited resources to find such theories/particles needs to be scrutinized. And, for example, even if CERN were to have discovered something new that led to deriving the 3 standard model forces from a GUT, it wouldn't have give us any new insights or make any new predictions that is lacking in our standard model. Regarding multiple dimensions / topology, Sabine also has a recent video ("2+2 Doesn't Always Equal 4") on how the universe isn't expanding into anything (flat embedding space).. and describes how measurements can be done from within the object you are trying to measure, like ants on a ball, to prove that it's growing. Finally, regarding Grant Sanderson's channel (3blue1brown) on learning math, I recommend the Freakonomics episode #391, where Steve Levitt talks about how the math curriculum needs to be re-balanced, with less emphasis on calculus and other tasks best accomplished with computers, and instead, adding (modern) statistics, linear-algebra, and data science. See Salman Khan interview on the People I (Mostly) Admire Podcast Ep. 22)

I was very lucky and in middle school in the 70s came across the work of Charles Howard Hinton. Changed my life and view of universe. But I'm pretty sure we can describe this one using only 3 physical dimensions and compactified time. This allows every point in the universe to be in contact via infinitesimal NOW. Which also allows and explains entanglement. Kaluza Klein for 3 dimensions and compact time down there in the corner.

I resonate with the first 9 minutes I was pretty good with Algebra and equations, but when I took Geometry I did not understand why we had to work on proofs and why the proof was more important than the fact that I was looking at a square and could prove with a number why it was a square. Needless to say, I passed the class with a C+ and I did not enjoy my teacher.
@EugeneSeidel3 жыл бұрын
Non-math person here. Was hoping for more talk on dimensions above three. I believe in string theory the extra dimensions are "compactified" -- too tiny for us to detect? And that most of the gravitational force, which is inexplicably weak in our 3D, lives there? What about the extra dimensions used by -- is it electrical engineers? -- to solve real-world problems -- these would seem to be entirely different conceptually from compactified extra dims? And if there is a 4D (5D, 6D ...) world of which our 3D world is but a subset, would that be yet another incongruous definition of extra dimension(s)? If we cannot perceive such a higher dimension directly, then can we infer it from effects on our world that could not be explained otherwise?

Re Flatland: I think the 2D creatures, in their conception of the world, can be interpreted as non-sapient creatures or naive but intelligent pre-science creatures. The 3D creatures would be equivalent to humans able to perceive something beyond the "natural world" (the 2D plane), which is things like math/logic/science/philosophy -- immaterial, imperceptible things, but (arguably) still real. These 3D beings don't live in 3D space, as the 2D landscape represents actual, material reality. Rather, attaining sapience/intelligence or applying the correct Enlightenment methods has enabled these beings to grasp a new dimension, one of mind/reason, completely orthogonal to the physical plane. And the 4D creature would be, at least from a 3D perspective, something beyond even rational understanding. True understanding, not merely intellectual acknowledgment like us performing n-dimensional math. I am talking about perceiving it as it truly, wholly is, like we can with 3D objects. And the 4D creature would obviously something metaphysical -- god.

I just thought of this little creative writing idea while listening to your show i can write about * today*. And tomorrow I'll write about tomorrow. And so on. Then, i will extract my comments and put it all together. Why is it so difficult to extract and connect all the notes you have everywhere (on your phone, thru different apps, pc, different folders, etc) so since we are on a topic of mathematical dimensional shapes ( i think thats the title of the show) i want to share a perfect song ive discovered recently. It's called "the grey" by teserract. I am terrible at math. I am not sure why. Another thing i dont even remember studying is physics, so i wonder who erased my memory about these important things. Why do i have to connect everything and be an observer. I'm not sure why i have a difficult frequency to get in touch with or why am i not getting any signals from outherspace, which is yet to be discovered. I had this thought about people getting visions, just like from the movie Bruce Almighty when they hear people trying to reach them, and there are just moments when you hear people, and it gets strange, you kind of get confused. So i imagine all of those amazing scientists who are getting improtant information from the knowledge field. They have to tune into that frequency somehow. Be open to it. At least for the moment. Thats why they say they have sometimes a strange behavior. Once Lex mentioned, what would happen if some scientists didn't discover nuclear power or electrical power or law of physics? The knowledge would be available to the person who tunes into that frequency. We are just names. The future is outhere. You know what i mean. That's all for today. ❤ P.S. This is my first comment. I have to write 400 and some.

Its so interesting for me because for my simple "computer vision" experiment right now I am literally grouping lines with the same angle using a Python dictionary and then combining them into one line. I mean when Lex points out this stuff is fundamental to AI, I hope other people feel the same way. Because I believe that we will actually get to a place where many real-world scenes and dynamics can be "understood" by AI using this type of fundamental. Especially when you think about it in terms of for example man-made environments that are often filled with regular shapes, machines with simple functions, etc. I will admit that I cheated by using a state-of-the-art neural network edge detection library to get to the point where I could break anything down like that though.

I'm at the flatland discussion (~45 mins) They might cover this later A 3D person sees 2D images, and must move around to infer the 3Dness So a 2D person would only see 1D lines. If they get yanked above their plane, they would still only see 1D lines. It would take a lot of cross eyed determination to figure out what they are looking at If they got special sensors that fed them 2D images (like our eyes), their minds still wouldn't be equipped to handle all that new data To naturally grasp 4D, you would probably need to be born with a mind that's equipped to process 3D eyes (and exist in that 4D virtual world)

If the centre of the universe was perceived as a bubble being popped, a big pop, the expansion of the universe could be perceived as the big pop still occurring, and the air contained inside the bubble is still emerging outwards like water against a beach, whilst the initial shockwave of the pop expanded faster than the air, so powerful it created a vacuum that is directed towards the shockwave at the edge of the universe. The space inside the bubble is the initial driving pressure, whilst the secondary pressure is the shockwave, the third being the residual energies expansion, the fourth being the vacuum of the shockwave itself, and the 5th being a host of resisting forces and everything inbetween other force connected, taking the energy transformations a long, finite, interconnected series of energy exchanges. Like a dot in the centre of a circle, the dot is the origin that produces the larger circle, whilst the lower dimensional circle is like a magnetic field that repeatedly grows in power to jump to a point that helps sustain it's field like a self sustaining forcefield capable of drawing power from itself and replenishing itself like a form of perpetual energy driven by a loop of creating and collapsing fields to create mini pops, spanks or resistance at point of convergence and field expansion direction, hence the expansion in all directions, starting with the path of least resistance. Think of this like a pair of magnets coming together at an accelerating pace the nearer they are together to converge, snapping together and collapsing the field inbetween that forces an energy exchange of the new unified field that displaces it according to it's field. The increased speed as the magnetic fields attract eachother are essentially creating more energy than put in. This could be perceived as something from nothing, or deposits of energy, masses created by the collapse of the field, comparable to pinching a finger that leaves you with a black mark. The black mark could be perceived as an antimatter deposit, a black hole mass with its own additional smaller field, or even a wormhole. The influence of the deposit (like a carbon deposit after burning fossil fuels in conventional combustion engines).

Are there really three dimensions, or is ‘dimension’ only a concept that helps us do the math? Why? Because there is no such thing as a two dimensional object. If you shrink one dimension of an object to zero, the object does not exist. So, in a sense, each set of two dimensions is entirely dependent upon the other one. They are not separate, distinct things. We hear so much talk about ‘extra dimensions’. I question whether there are any ‘dimensions’ other than in the math that we invent. Three dimensions may be the best way we have at present to describe space, but a better description is out there somewhere.
