    Writing: Input Wanted How can a wormhole be relocated and what would happen to objects near it?

    I will try to explain how I see wormholes, or hope to use them in the plot: Is a wormhole fixed in space/time, example I have three wormholes (not connected) located in space time, do the relative distances/vectors change between the wormholes change because of the geometry differences of...

    Writing: Input Wanted How can a wormhole be relocated and what would happen to objects near it?

    Hi I am writing a short story about wormholes being used as a plot device. I know wormholes have no stable solutions unless you put some form of exotic matter or other means of stabilizing the geometry. I assume that I have a wormhole of any size which is stable when other matter comes near it...

    How are Most Databases Created?

    I will assume you mean with bulk import features that will allow you to add a lot of rows of data at once using the database features like for instance MSSQL (BULK INSERT ...) First of all this works with linear data very well. However most databases are as you know relational. When you start...

    How are Most Databases Created?

    Products like Oracle have an import and export function that allows you to copy a database including the data and the datastructures, the pl/sql and triggers etc. However maintenance on a database which has lots of records can be very tricky. Updating tables (fields, triggers, keys/indices) can...

    B Can the Holographic Principle make predictions

    I have been following the online lectures of Leonard Susskind regarding the holographic principle and entanglement.see Holographic Principle Lecture Part2 The universe can be seen as two-dimensional information on a cosmological horizon. (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holographic_principle)...

    Rapid data retrieval from Excel (or similar)

    As the previous poster asked: "What are you trying to accomplish?" If you need to locate a text you can use dictionaries in almost any language I know and can think of. A dictionary is a structure that allows you to find an entry based on a key and then retrieve the value. If the number of items...

    How do you handle algorithms (memorize vs. reference)?

    Hi there, Nice to hear that people are still interested in programming and When coding the what is something you can copy or take from a book or from your memory if you feel confident enough. However in my opinion it is not the what but the need/purpose that should be the driving force behind...

    B Is the center of the universe empty?

    See https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/center-of-the-universe-what-again.878741/ See https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/there-must-be-a-center-of-the-universe.845032/ Short answer: There is no center of the universe. Take the example of a balloon and blow it up. Even though it is getting...

    Statistics on social media bot use and detection

    Social Media bots are automated systems (AI or Expert Systems) that monitor communications and perform tasks based on their programming. This can be as simple as copy the message to other media or people to elaborate actions including the (not so) subtle change of wording in the original...

    Statistics on social media bot use and detection

    I am currently doing some research on the impact of social media bots. I am looking into the social and cultural aspects of bot use in social media. The technology I have under wraps but I do not have much information on the social aspect and impact of bot use. I also like to find some...

    B New star in the skies -- Plausible?

    http://www.calvin.edu/academic/phys/observatory/MergingStar/MolnarEtAl2017.pdf Quote from paper. The prediction of a naked eye nova (2nd magnitude if it brightens as much a V1309 Sco did) in the year 2022+/-0.6y makes it essential to use the available time to fullest advantage What I do not...

    How to Handle Data from a Motor Encoder with C in Arduino?

    When you say 'reading the data for half a second' what you are actually saying is you are sampling the data at a certain frequency for 0.5 seconds and taking the average or some other means to turn the statistical data and turn it into a value. If so the following should help you: I would...

    A Erik Verlinde's new view on dark matter

    This quote from the paper mentions quantum information which is evenly divided over all tensors in the network. Does anyone have some reference or paper which explains to me how this information becomes evenly divided? Is this purely the timescale or is there more to it? How does this...

    I Space expansion and Universe as computation

    You are right but I should elaborate as I was not clear enough. A single program is run on a single entity which in itself can have multiple processing entities however in the end the governing program is run as one entity and has to communicate with all sub processes in order to coordinate...
