Well, even if those, say an ice giant planet and a red dwarf, collide. There would be a temperature gradient through the water planet. At the junction we would find a hot gas, looking further there would be water and after that there would be ice. If all pressure were athmospheric jadda jadda ... the points along the temperature gradient between which we would find liquid water would be 100 C and 0C. If heat conduction was perfect in ice, water and steam, we would have a situation where there is no gradient, the planet would heat up in its entirity and instantaneously change phase at those points. Of course inertia and gravity would have to be 0 too, else we wpuld end up with superheated stuff until it had time to expand jaddajadda..

Interesting hypothesis from an anonymous onanist:
If biological evolution happened exactly as fast as one would statistically predict, the multiverse interpretation of quantum theory is almost certainly false. If biological evolution happened significantly faster than one would statistically predict, the quantum multiverse theory is almost certainly true.

In our day-to-day lives, multiverse interpretation might not be falsifiable, because you cannot make a distinction between hidden variables, true randomness and just finding yourself constantly in one of the "typical"/"most likely" timelines.

However, you must exist in a universe that creates observers in the first place. And there is a good reason to think such a universe would be somewhere in the "less-likely" percentile of the probability wave evolution.
Biological evolution is probably highly dependent on quantum effects, and chaos theory effects that follow.

If you can show that life on earth was just "too lucky" in a consistent manner, you can deduce it's because failed on other earths. If not, you could perhaps make a reverse deduction - why are you not in a universe where it would emerge faster?

Anything trying to reconcile quantum mechanics and general relativity, I guess. Try and you get stuff like plank-sized black holes being spontaneously created, the self-energy corrections blow up to infinity. A quantized space-time of general relativity is non-renormalizable.

Not many people know, this but

Some common research suggests that endothermic bacterial cell binders are not easily displaced by ,common, soaping and activity agents as

The binding reagent will stay preferentially with a thermal source, or will not react preferentially with an agent when the common binding strength is endothermic

Similar to bath mould in the common sense, some bacterial agents have preferential binding and growth mediums and are not easily displaced by common soaps and activity agents

Such as those which the common man could associate with say
"Deep-urinary tract infection" or kidney-urine binding agent
Which can often strain blood responses and activity

Such as with bath mould, what is appropriate is an endothermic reactive agent for displacement or activity. Urinary agents such as ethyromycin or dihydro-ergotamine and -arguabally some diuretic agents would be more effective in lifting such bacterial infections

Although such things have yet to be Proven. It is the common view that these things may not yet be fully understood

>Teacher: How do you know he's not tricking you, using reverse psychology by offering you another choice.
>Student: It doesn't matter, it's simple probability. 33% is the answer.
Except it does matter and completely changes everything. The probability is 1/3 only in the model where the presenter ALWAYS opens a door with a goat no matter what you choose.
However, if he's actually trying to trick you sometimes, for example in the model where he always opens a goat when you pick a car, but otherwise doesn't let you choose again, you NEVER want to switch. In this model, the probability of winning a car if you switch is 0%, and 100% probability of winning a car if you stay.
So if there's a possibility that the host is trying to trick you, the probability is no longer 33% but a complex combination of 33% and 100%, which could be whatever. The model is underspecified.

It could be true, but some people say it's necessarily true - that if something is infinite, it must hold an infinite number of permutations of every possible thing.

The tradtional route would be to get a PhD and then get an academic position, but getting a PhD takes longer than it did even a few decades ago and there aren't all that many academic jobs anyway. Thus the best way would be to find what available non-academic jobs use math and the most often and then get whatever qualifications you would need.

What a retarded chart.
Anyways, relational QM.

>Relational quantum mechanics (RQM) is an interpretation of quantum mechanics which treats the state of a quantum system as being relational, that is, the state is the relation between the observer and the system. This interpretation was first delineated by Carlo Rovelli in a 1994 preprint, and has since been expanded upon by a number of theorists. It is inspired by the key idea behind special relativity, that the details of an observation depend on the reference frame of the observer, and uses some ideas from Wheeler on quantum information.
>
>The essential idea behind RQM is that different observers may give different accurate accounts of the same system. For example, to one observer, a system is in a single, "collapsed" eigenstate. To a second observer, the same system is in a superposition of two or more states and the first observer is in a correlated superposition of two or more states. RQM argues that this is a complete picture of the world because the notion of "state" is always relative to some observer. There is no privileged, "real" account.
