old pigsics!! for you buddy!!

Thanks! I enjoyed that ...

Which obviously means I am a strange, strange geek.

Did you know that, speaking purely mathematically, once you've learned to deal with 4 or 5 dimensions, it gets much easier to deal with higher dimensions? EXCEPT when you're trying to connect these dimensions to our reality, as the speaker is doing in this video, and as theoretical physicists must do when trying to understand reality and how it came to be.

[And how is it that "Hot Chicks Have Pillow Fight" is related to that video??:eek: Probably in the 11th dimension.]
 
So in theory, I'm a drunk embryo that has yet to be conceived in the past??? ...or am I just a point of infinite intoxication???:eek:

My head is asploding too

no, it just means you are much smarter than i.

just a bonus for us dummies.
 
I need to get me one of them Flatlander's

I understood pretty much none of that too be completely honest though...
 
That's deep...

I think I followed... There was asploading though...

I guess the 11th Dimension includes some variance of INFI...
 
okay that was a neat way to desribe time and space i think ah sh!t got to watching and forgot my kydex in the oven run away ahahahah

Until you have a good way of folding spacetime, there are only 3 dimensions.

Well ... there's gravity. Very intense gravitational fields do quite a lot of folding. How much? We haven't figured that one out yet.

I'll admit, though, that my only real use for higher dimensions (beyond 4 or 5) has been purely mathematical -- performing calculations that reduce to results I can use in the here and now.

OK. Sometimes in the there and then. :D
 
What happens if you try to fold a dimension that contains infi though? I mean, we've all seen the bending tests on infi; not easy to do and it usually just springs right back again. Can it even be done once infi exists in the dimension, or does infi then act as a stabilizing agent?

Maybe that's why we haven't actually managed to do it yet... no-one's factored in the infi exclusion principle...

You HOGs have never ceased to amaze me. You are discussing string theory as after work casual chatting topic. I thought this would only be carried out by academics sitting in ivory towers. I take my hat off to you HOGs.
