Consensus Quantum Reality | How to Build A Universe
https://builtuniverse.wordpress.com/2013/01/15/consensus-quantum-reality
How to Build A Universe. That doesn't fall apart two days later. January 15, 2013. Was recently reported on the Arxiv blog. That I feel compelled to comment on. It showed the results of a poll of physicists, philosophers and mathematicians about the nature of quantum reality. It makes a for a fascinating read. One message comes through loud and clear, which anyone can pick up on regardless of their level of scientific knowledge, and that’s that scientists are massively undecided. Good lord. Really? And w...

Lorentz Invariance: Fact or Fiction | How to Build A Universe
https://builtuniverse.wordpress.com/2014/05/18/lorentz-invariance-fact-or-fiction
How to Build A Universe. That doesn't fall apart two days later. Lorentz Invariance: Fact or Fiction. Lorentz Invariance: Fact or Fiction. May 18, 2014. Early this year, I won a book contract for a series of science fiction novels. I’m having a huge amount of fun with it, but am plagued by a peculiar anxiety. That people will have issues with my book to do with Lorentz Invariance. Is this the kind of neurotic thought process that happens when one spends years doing scientific research where you have to j...

Are we hitting peak social justice? May 20, 2015. I have a prediction, and it’s this:. Outraged social norming on the political left is close to a tipping point beyond which the left will begin to collapse under the constraints of its own narrative. Do I like this prediction? No, I do not. Do I want it to be true? No Do I have opinions about it? I later learned about the internet debate around an essay written by Jonathan Chait. The number of loud, critical responses that were made to his piece are too n...

April 22, 2015. In my last post. I talked about the current woes over the Hugo awards, but all the while I was writing it, I felt like there was a major point that I was missing out. That point was larger than SF fandom, and instead said something about the difference between the country I was born in (UK) and the one I live in now (US), so I left it aside. Then, after I made the post, a commenter (AG) made the following remark:. I wanted to ask the following question:. Science fiction fandom in the US h...

How to Fix the Hugos. April 20, 2015. I have spent way too much time this last week reading the various back and forth articles about the Hugo award debacle. For those of you who aren’t familiar with this, the short version is as follows. Two groups, one of right-leaning fans (the Sad Puppies. Subsequently, everyone and his aunt has jumped into the debate to express an opinion, including George R. R. Martin. In your Where’s the Beef post you attempted to dismiss our allegations that there is a political ...

All posts by alexlamb. Brexit: what I got wrong. June 30, 2016. In April, I posted the following anticipated timeline on Facebook regarding Brexit. Looking at it now makes me laugh, sort of, in a hysterical kind of way. 1: Tories tell angry right-wing voters that they will A: insist on a change to the relationship with Europe. B: Hold a referendum. 2: Tories mop up votes and win election. 3: Tories create fudged Europe arrangement with no real change. As in April 18th). Wow How wrong I got that! The mark...
