I’ve just finished building what I call a “Game of Life simulator on steroids.” Check it out! It basically serves as a simulator for my latest ontology article.

Does physics say that free will doesn't exist?
At first glance, it seems like our understanding of physics forbids free will.

Prove Einstein’s relativity for yourself for under $100
Einstein's relativity has been misunderstood by more people than almost any correct physical theory ever.
Here's how you can prove it for yourself, DIY-style, for cheap.

Last evening I derived the "quantum correlation" for the two channel optical Bell experiment, right here on my Mastodon account. But I did so WITHOUT quantum mechanics, and I did so in a way that makes it clear there is only classical Newtonian motion.
Go see it for yourself […]

I'm finishing Alain Aspect's book, and unsurprisingly it's very good. It can be a popular book, but I would say it shouldn't be your first popular book on QM. The appendices offer more details, like a lovely proof of Bell's inequalities (the CHSH version). Now I'm close to read the proof about […]

There's a famous Feynman interview where he explains why ice is slippery. It turns out there's more to the story involving shear-stress and slippage of disordered ice layers. Things we experience every day still generate novel thought and research. #Science #Physics

Dark matter may be made of pieces of giant, exotic objects — and astronomers think they know how to look for them
Searches for dark matter particles have come up empty so far, driving theorists to get more creative with their ideas.
