PeroK reacted to Nugatory's post in the thread B How can a black hole absorb matter? with
Informative.
There is, and the “similar threads” section below will take you to some of the older threads about this. An excerpt from one of them... -
PeroK reacted to Line_112's post in the thread B How can a black hole absorb matter? with
Skeptical.
According to the General Theory of Relativity, time does not pass on a black hole, which means that processes they don't work either. As... -
PeroK reacted to Bandersnatch's post in the thread Could an external cosmic body have influenced Earth’s geology? with Informative.
The only interaction available here is tidal deformation. However, it is generally pretty weak, scales only linearly with mass, and very...

PeroK reacted to Dani Rose's post in the thread Could an external cosmic body have influenced Earth’s geology? with Skeptical.
I don’t mean a direct impact of a cosmic object with Earth, but rather a sufficiently large body passing close by, exerting some kind of...

PeroK reacted to Dani Rose's post in the thread Could an external cosmic body have influenced Earth’s geology? with Skeptical.
This is true, but there are enough remaining traces for us to have an idea of what happened. For example, something disrupted the...

PeroK replied to the thread Is AI hype?.AI isn't necessarily about mimicking the human brain. It's about creating an alternative, artificial intelligence. Chess engines, for...

Ah, gotcha. But, there is a big difference between mimicking something and actually doing it. As a rough example, an actor mimics...

PeroK replied to the thread I Visual depiction of atomic orbitals.You claim the literature shows shapes without a symmetry implied by the harmonic function they represent. Let's see an example of what...
