  • What is this new physics theory called Emergence theory? They seem to say quasicrystalline is the building block of physics?

    They seem to say quasicrystalline is building block of physics if I understand it.

    There is very little information because it is a new theory but from what I understand it is new theory trying to explain the problems with gravity and other problems of physics. The Emergence Theory is saying a theory of pixelated spacetime and of reality as a Quasicrystalline point space projected from the E8 Crystal.

    If I understand what they are saying quasicrystalline or quasicrystal are building block of physics?

    Can some one simplify this new theory on Emergence Theory and explain it to me.  If this theory is proven true what does this mean for physics?

Or the letter B like boat, book, box, bike so on... Why I’m I struggling with word recall is this part of dyslexia or some thing else? I have no problem putting my thoughts down when writhing or talking but playing word recall games I struggle to do word recall. Do other members here struggle with word recall? Or does this sound part of the dyslexia or some thing else?

  • When do you use the linux shell over the linux terminal?

    I hear the linux terminal is like Windows command prompt. And linux terminal run in the GUI but the shell does not run in the GUI. When do you have to run the shell? Is the shell some thing like the command prompt but only if the GUI is not loading or you have video problems you can start the shell and fix the video problem or deal with driver problems or other problems? Similar to windows safe mode with command prompt only?

    The shell is like the terminal just does not run in the GUI? The linux terminal have more features than the linux shell?

  • Is it possible to learn math and physics with out going to school or having a teacher?

    And if so how high of grade can you get to with out going to school.

    One of the things I learned really fast with math and physics that makes it hard for me is it is not memorizing facts it is deep understand of concepts. It is not a question of reading textbooks or stack of many textbooks it is deep understanding.  So I’m not sure if youtube videos and textbooks can explain concepts good enough for me to understand.

    I was wondering if others hear learned a lot about math and physics with out going to school?

  • I’m trying to read this and understand what this text is trying to say about Miami accent?

    What are these letters? Also what is alveolar? The only thing I kinda get from this text is Yale with jail that is about it.

    The text is saying.

    Miami accent does not generally display the following features: there is no addition of /ɛ/ before initial consonant clusters with /s/, speakers do not confuse of /dʒ/ with /j/, (e.g., Yale with jail), and /r/ and /rr/ are pronounced as alveolar approximant [ɹ] instead of alveolar tap [ɾ] or alveolar trill [r] in Spanish.

    Can some one explain to me what is /ɛ/ , /s/, /dʒ , and /j/
