AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around a proposed mini CD disc that utilizes a blue laser drive, which is more efficient than traditional infrared lasers, allowing it to store significantly more data in a smaller format. The blue laser's shorter wavelength enables it to read smaller details on the disc surface, enhancing data density. The conversation also touches on various natural forces, including magnetism, electromagnetic radiation, electricity, and the concept of time, emphasizing the interconnectedness of these elements in understanding the world. Participants explore the beauty of scientific principles, with some debating the nature of neutrons and the transmission of nerve impulses in the brain, highlighting the complexity of information retrieval and the role of electricity in cognitive processes. The dialogue reflects a blend of curiosity, scientific inquiry, and appreciation for the intricacies of nature and technology.

New mini-disc ~ blue laser drive ~ Stores =<1gig

Hello again. My name is Kev.I'm 16. I've had a few thoughts about some things.

Paticular, a mini CD disc that can hold ALOT (gigs I believe?) of information , and is smaller than a CD!
The driver uses a blue laser instead of the regular low powered infared red laser. Apparently this higher powered laser transmits data more effiently, thus storing more memory.

I also wanted to point something out.
First, let's look at some forces of nature:
Magnetism - Every body that has mass, has magnetism. The Earth's core is comprised of materials that are magnetic. Our Earth has a pole, a magnetic field. Compasses point north.
Eletromagnetic radiation - Electromagnetic radiation. Also known as light. Light is a form of energy, comprised of particles known as photons.
Eletricity - Our brain is a computer. It stores information. Retrival of this information is not well known yet; however, I believe eletricity holds the answer. You see, our brains use synaps to connect, and electrical impulses travel though our body all the time. If it wasn't for these electrical impulses, we wouldn't feel pain - among a lot of other negative consequences.

Time - Without time, there would be nothing (or would there .. hmm). Everything takes time. The spacetime continum states that as you travel though space, you take away from time. I.e as I walk from here to my grocery store, (travelling though space) it takes a certain amount of time.

My point is.. The world we live in is beautiful, and a big aspect of it is to be able to fully appreciate it. Though matematics and science, traveling though book after book, lecture after lecture, we learn and reconnect memories, and we thrive to control this mass of learning potential in which we all yield.

The smaller-wavelength laser is capable of discerning smaller details on the disc surface, and thus is able to cram more information per unit surface area.
Every body that has mass, has magnetism.
This is false. Neutrons have mass, but no charge. The neutron is just one of many such particles.

Actually neutrons are composed of charged quarks, so they do have a magnetic moment. I don't see what this has to do with symmetry though.
 
I don't know that he means symmetry in the same way physicists mean it. He just seems to be appreciating the beauty in the world, and it is well known that humans associate beauty with symmetry. That's mostly geometric symmetry, if I recall correctly, but I'm sure it can extend to other types. There are certainly plenty of scientists that view their own theories with awe and see a good deal of beauty in them. I tend to lean with Darwin when he states that there is great wonder in the evolutionary view of the biological world. Physics is a mixed bag; some of it is elegant, some of it is just downright odd.

There is probably more to that symmetry than you expect -
Theory of Reciprocity
Brain candy. Chew slowly. Enjoy.

Good observation, but things are less complicated than the conventional wisdom would lead you to believe.
 
Thor, I don't believe the equations at those links, because the letters denoting variables don't have well defined numeric referents. How do you differentiate a concept? And I distrust any theory that is presented to me with fake equations.

Differentiating a concept is confusing; because sometimes its opt to opinion. I'm not sure what he is referring the "null set" as.

Thanks for the explanation. I didn't know exactly *why* it worked, and this clears it up for me. Neutrons have no charge, their charge is neutral, that's correct. But I didn't take that into consideration as well.. I'm learning, at least.

I think you are anthropomorphizing...

Transmission of nerve impulses across the synapse is through chemical means by neurotransmitters. Check it out on the web. The process is very interesting.
