Science is the Mindset

When one wants to do science, doing science can be learning or being an active participant as a professional or science investigator, their mind must be attuned to science. It does not matter what branch of science one is dealing with, be it social sciences or the natural sciences.

The basis of human existence is a scientific mind. Without a scientific mind there would not be a single human being on this planet. If one goes deep enough one can say every living thing, by the mere fact that it is alive is capable for a scientific mind up to its intellectual capabilities. This is far from an absurd statement, in 2022 it was shown that fungus communicate with each other, they have the equivalent of at least 50 words.

To be alive, let us stick to human beings, to be alive means one automatically accepted that there are certain things where they must be honest to themselves and accept the evidence in front of them. They need energy to survive and to be able to do things, be they liars after the fact of accepting the reality that they must accept that fact of needing energy.

We know from the first of law of information that everything is in a relationship and all relationships lead to a loss of freedom due to the costs involved, all these costs are in terms of energy required to maintain those relationships. Without energy an information package can not have the most basic relationship, that of maintaining itself as that type of information package.

That one accepts this truth to survive, that is why they eat food, means that the minds of all human beings, of all life understands the concept of accepting the truth, or they will cease to exist if they deny that basic truth. That is all science is, accepting the truth in front of you.

The first thing a scientific mind has to do is to accept the truth, accept facts. Some facts are just harder to get to than one needs food to sustain themselves as firstly living but accepting the truth that one needs to accept the truth for survival, the acquiring of energy means every single human being if they want to can accept facts.

Many great philosophers have said that it is important to be truthful to oneself. To be truthful to oneself means that one does not change the facts to suite what they want, because then those are no longer facts. I read this one great quote on Gab. Gab is a social media site where people can go there and speak whatever they like if they have the stomach to take other peoples opinions. Now this @eschatologuy commented “when an honest man realizes he is mistaken, he will either cease to be honest or cease to be mistaken.”

Take the social sciences, let us take economics for example. One must first ask themselves what it is that they are looking into, what is economics. Economics is the study of how humans use knowledge to identify resources and use these scarce resources to create, using knowledge, commodities and distribute them among people.

It is a human being that identifies a resource given the knowledge base of that society, having identified that resource it is a human being that turns that resource into a commodity, a commodity in economics is everything that is in the market that is not a service. A television is as much a commodity as a shoe or sugar and gold. The human mind must identify the resource, oil has been in the ground for millions of years, but 1 000 years ago there was not enough knowledge to turn crude oil into a commodity. As humans advance, oil might seize to be an important commodity in the future as other resources have been identified that can do the job better.

One can see that there are rich countries, middle income countries and poor countries. One must look at statistics and accept this fact, the first step in a scientific mind is to accept this reality. Why are there rich, middle-, and low-income countries. One must be realistic to themselves, to be realistic to themselves they must first admit that economics no matter the fancy definitions can come down to a simple matter, this simple matter is need for humans to have food, so economics comes down to how do humans feed themselves, how do humans get food to have relationships.

Thus, the question of why some countries have different income levels is solely an economic question, it comes down to how humans are allowed to feed themselves. Thus, the difference between rich, middle- and low-income countries is only about how people are allowed to feed themselves. Who gets to get the choicest meat, even wild animals, know those involved in the hunt get the choicest meat? Once the choicest piece of meat goes to those not involved in the hunt there will not be incentive to hunt with that group.

When one has to pay government officials for the most useless things to be involved in production, that will disincentivize people. Of course, this technique can be used to disincentivize a group or an individual. Once government gives one’s mind away, it is to disincentivize that person from thinking, even though they did all the hunting. It is evil and not natural.

Now an honest economist will accept this reality that how economics works is how a society is organized, but an economist knowing this truth and says other things has ceased to be honest and we will get the situation we see in much of Africa, former Soviet countries, South America (it is only called Latin America because it was conquered by the Spanish and Portuguese. I mean when one says that Ukraine was a country of virtue before this war when it was easily one of the most corrupt countries on this planet. Those saying that have ceased to be honest. That is not a justification of anything, just a statement of fact.

One can see the situation in Africa, everybody knows how to accept facts, when an entire society is vested in denying facts, it mostly does not matter if a corrupt government is replaced by the opposition, the opposition was waiting for its time to get the choicest pieces of meat, one see’s this in South America too. When it benefits a group to rob another group, it does not matter who is in power that group will be robbed, this happens all over the world. If people pretend, they can not see this, humanity has decided to be dishonest in general.

Truth is not food where if one has enough income, they can have different flavors of truth. The truth is not up to one’s taste, especially when it comes to organizing a successful thriving society. Truth is up to one’s taste for a toddler mind who is allowed to lack discipline as they lie their way out of problems, but the problems never go away. The problems do not go away because one is refusing to look at evidence and facts.

For thousands of years humans have looked up to mystics according to myth, always according to myth, could move objects with their minds, very powerful wizards. These mythological people are in modern entertainment, people so in-tune with nature by mere thought they can create lightening, rain, move rocks, you see these fantastic beings in every culture, going through vast mind training it is on television and the movies.

Project Star Gate that started in 1972 by the CIA was as a response to what was believed was KGB experiments into extra sensory perception (ESP) and psychoanalysis, moving matter with one’s minds, affecting matter with one’s mind. You go Jedi. This idea of this super humans has been persistent through out history.

Take a laser. Get a cardboard box even a McDonalds Happy meal box, put two slices 0.5 cm apart, from a meter or a little further shine a laser through the slits, you will see a wave formation at the back. Note, you personally doing the experiment will see the wave formation with your eyes. You are observing the web formation.

Now do the same experiment in a laboratory. You will get the same thing; you will see the wave formation. In the laboratory one can place detectors to try and verify which slit a photon is going through. When we interfere and try to do this, we no longer get a wave formation, we see two lines, two dots, that wave now behaves like a particle, that is why the wave/ particle duality.

Now those of pseudo science will claim it is the human mind that is changing the behaviour of light. When we look they will say it is a particle, and when we look away it is a wave. They do not care about the absurdity, because we see it is a wave, but longing for those superhuman abilities of distant mythological times and with the ever expanding woke age, not understanding all the yoga in the world will not allow your mind to lift a rock. To such people evidence does not matter.

The reason why evidence does not matter is the mythological longing in their minds, if we can merely affect unanimated matter at the fundamental level, it means with more clarity we can move rocks with our minds. Of course, it is absurd, but there was project star gate from the CIA, you think you can reason with such a mind, any reason for war, project star gate tells us that. It doesn’t have to be real the accusations; the war is needed.  

Can you imagine seeing a wave with your eyes then at the same time saying when you don’t look there is no wave. How does one know it is a wave when they don’t look, it is about interactions, and relationships when we attempt to measure?

Magnetic tests that have been done say at the poles magnetism comes out as a wave. However, when you interfere, it always organizes into a wave, but evidence does not matter to those who have ceased to be honest and desire politics and suggestions of just crazy longings from reading stories of sticks turning into snakes, affecting unanimated stuff means we all have the potential to turn water into wine with enough clarity. Affect the air to uplift, throw lightening, entertaining stuff, awe inspiring to the ancient.

Let us take the first law of everything. Everything is in a relationship and all relationships result in a loss of freedom due to the energy needed for a relationship. Knowing where it comes from is important, if one says it has its roots in the ideas of Einstein, one has ceased to be an honest scientist, they are playing hoaxes for their desires, they wish, even if your friends own the entire world and all the media, it is still just a wish.

But one is distorting knowledge lines, to trace the thought for their own dishonest hidden ways, those that do not mind are part of that group that is dishonest as theoretical scientists, attributing knowledge to where it does not belong.

Wheeler would be more correct to say he had enough influence in getting to the theory because his definition of information was the same as my understanding of knowledge, you can only know what is discrete. Writing this series of podcasts, Nikolai Tesla understood the big concepts far more as he understood it is about energy, frequency and vibrations just different levels of energy. One hopes those string theory people are honest and say they where inspired by Tesla, but for politics, probably will not mention that.

However, Tesla understood more than Einstein for the time that it is all about energy, just didn’t realize that energy is about maintaining a relationship. The resultant relationship one can say will have a certain frequency so to say. Absolutely staggering mind, mostly logic, not too much maths, his own experiments so long ago, yes a staggering feat given the time. I am thoroughly convinced for example, yet to be proven that because of 4 main agents in genetics that take different order, the different combinations result merely in different frequencies because of the different relationships produced by different combinations.

Pythagoras understood in a more basic manner this idea of energy, frequency and vibrations. Pythagoras existed in ancient Greece, he lived 500 years before Jesus and our calendar years for business are based on how many years since the birth of Jesus. Pythagoras believed that each celestial body, planets and the stars had their own unique musical note based on how they moved through the universe. Pythagoras knew a bit about music in mathematical terms. He understood mathematically why different string lengths had different musical note. Music is frequency and vibrations, frequency and vibrations are about energy. I must profess ignorance here, it would be proper to know if other philosophers rom ancient past civilizations perhaps China, India, Japan, Aztecs, maybe Africa also understood th world in terms of energy frequency and vibrations, was it just Pythagoras in his time, before Christ or 500 years after birth of Christ.

4 main agents in genetics, plus a lot of other stuff, the combinations must result in different energy qualities, energy, frequency and vibrations. This lends credence to the idea that everything is made up of the same thing, the difference being the frequency and the frequency being a result of the differences in the relationship, the frequency signalling the different costs of the relationship, perhaps.

But if everything is made up of the same stuff and just about different relationship, then basic particles of the standard model in physics are all made up of the same stuff and it is just relationships between this same stuff that gives rise to particles.

We know there is finer stuff than particles because magnetism always organizes into a wave formation after interference, mind you, the blank experiment with no interference, from the pole, magnetism is always a wave, it is the interference when it must organize into a wave. It organizes all the time. This means it is going through some medium, why organize into a wave yet without interference it comes out from the poles as a wave. It is this other medium that will give us clues as to what all particles are made of.

The tobacco industry had scientists claiming that tobacco is harmless, those where very dishonest scientists, that is how they fed themselves.

Those pretending they are the smartest and give scientific proof are guaranteed hoaxes, but humans fall for it, that is why Africa in general believes some outside force will develop the continent for them, that is why the continued repression in large part, the people can not develop themselves. It is a big money spinner to be a scientific hoax for your group, that ensures your group will be regarded as smartest and given what they please in detriment to the locals, we will develop you, such nonsense.

People develop themselves if they are allowed, then they can blame hunger on themselves not the government, it is always the government if you are hungry and not allowed to do.

A Great Future for Science

 Science, it has given us so much. If you put your ego aside it doesn’t matter where it came from, the reality is it has given so much to all of humanity. Science is just the categorization of relationships we see all around us. What is this rock made from, that is a question? If we keep asking further, that rock being an information package will inform us of what it is made of, it will tell us everything about itself depending on whether we asked the right question or not. The right question can only be answered by observation, the rest is hypothesis. Depending on the relationships we classify that rock as igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary.

That is the process of science, if this then that, is the structure like this then it is igneous not sedimentary or metamorphic, is this the structure like this then it is sedimentary not metamorphic or sedimentary. We get the picture, consciously or unconsciously we are always using the algorithm of information to classify things, this medicine is like this it is for the cough this medicine is like this it is for acne. We are information packages and will categorize things using the properties of information that is why we mimic the properties of the algorithm of information, the grand algorithm in our classification of information.

As mentioned above, science, understanding the relationships of information and categorizing them have given so much to humanity, and humanity is made of billions of individuals, discrete information packages.

There is great talk of climate turning against the information package that is human but affecting a lot of life. When we talk of science what are we really talking about, we are talking what these modern people have called STEM. STEM stands for science, technology Engineering and mathematics.

To understand what is happening to the climate we needed scientists, to fix the climate problem it will be technology and engineers providing the solutions. The change is said to increase ocean levels, we will need knew engineering thinking to solve how will people exist with these higher sea levels. How will people leave with increased rain in some areas as well as falling rain in some areas. All these questions will be answered by those in the scientific field, be it pure or applied sciences.

After people feel comfortable with the direction the climate of the earth is taking there will be other unforeseen problems that will need the sciences, both the pure and the applied. There could be more pandemics, the severity of these pandemics will be solved by science and the products that science creates.

Just on future calamities alone that affect humanity on a global scale or at a local level, the solutions will come from science.

But the future is not just about calamities. Is building electric cars strictly about fixing the climate or will electric cars bring more comforts, greater power than current fuels derived from crude oil. It could be just better technology for technologies sake. This means that science brings products that are better just because humanity is developing and gaining more knowledge. This more knowledge on products comes from science.

Take hydrogen, many believe it is an alternative future to battery power, that depends on the amount of time, questions asked about relationship hydrogen has with the catalyst’s exedra exedra, and we will get better knowledge about hydrogen and its competitive abilities.

How wonderful if we could have some way of using 100% of the light that falls on a solar panel cell, there is much to do. I mean even a generator might seem like old technology, perhaps somebody can see a design flaw and improve on it.

Given our mode of existence, humans will always look for better materials, lighter, stronger, and more durable. Who are the people who look for these better materials? These are the people in the science fields. That discovery of graphene by Andre Geim, and Kostya Novoselov was amazing development for new materials, lighter and stronger and more durable, surely its time will come.

I was talking to my sister the other day, Nanziwe Khumalo, she is in Zimbabwe, and I said if people see a problem they will fix it, she replied that a problem can not be solved if one does not see that there is a problem. This is the same with science, one must see a problem before they solve it. She continued blah blah blah but it has some truth, if you see a problem how are you looking at the problem.

She of course was talking about the economic situation in the said country and our discussion is about science. Science, STEM in general is about seeing a problem and solving it. If things remain the same in ones attempt then there are reasons for this.

Firstly, it means there was no problem, one imagined the problem and looked for an answer. That one imagines a problem does not mean they are a fool, at the least after their investigations we will know there was no problem.

Not solving the problem one imagined can also mean that one has asked the universe the wrong questions. Being poetic with language one can also say science is asking the universe questions. If one asks the right questions the universe will reveal itself. What is a tree made of is a basic question, what are cells made of is a deeper question?

There are a lot of problems to be solved in the future that will require science and the scientific mindset. Artificial Intelligence is evolving day by day. Those involved with artificial intelligence will determine a huge chunk of the mode of existence for human beings in the future. The mode of existence of humanity is about how we exist, politically, economically and security issues. Artificial intelligence will be everywhere, it will be in healthcare, shopping, cars, banking, education, security both internal and external, laboratory assistants, materials design, it will be next to everywhere, there will be a time when the mode of existence is that a majority of people will not understand a world without artificial intelligence, just as many today can not understand a world without electricity or flight.

Just artificial intelligence as a science discipline has a great future, there will come a time when people say how did we survive without artificial intelligence, those not involved will not be shaping the future. Artificial intelligence will be picking up who is the right fit, if your community is not involved, it is out of the future.

Artificial intelligence if done properly, remember these things are created by human beings, it will always be influenced by, no matter how smart it becomes, it will be influenced by its original program, those not involved will face hardships as the programmers will program this artificial intelligence to look prioritize its peoples before all others, that is the reality of political action by humans, scientists are humans and have their societies to back, there are no more honest or less honest than any other human. Every community should understand this and prioritize its people being involved in artificial intelligence, to protect themselves. For example, artificial intelligence by Google or Amazon will be for the benefit of the owners of those companies and their communities, not humanity, best for one to be involved and not be trusting other communities with their future, only fools do that.

There is a desire to change how computers compute, there is great money that has gone into quantum computers. Quantum computers are theoretically able to take less time doing calculations than traditional integrated circuits. Quantum computers are named thus because they utilize the basic properties of particles. These basic properties include tunneling, superposition as well as entanglement. Faster calculations will affect artificial intelligence as it relies on computers. Everything that uses computers will be a quantum computer if certain hurdles can be overcome. But to overcome these hurdles one must participate in the development of the quantum computer.

It is about priorities for individuals, communities, and societies. If a community does not understand the importance of something then they will not participate, simple as that, they will say that is for other communities and they will be destroyed as a community or as a society. There is no society or community on this planet that can not participate in artificial intelligence or quantum computers, having a lack of resources is no excuse, it is about priorities and what that society, community wants to achieve. Let us look at magnetism.

The man who showed that magnetism organizes into a wave and is thus something discrete like any other quantum phenomenon had no backing from billionaires, grants from governments, in fact the billionaires and governments where against him, as they were looking for a specific type of black, he did not fall in that category thus the billionaires and governments where against him. For the love of eternity, the government of Canada took down his interview of 2016 about how everything is in a relationship and replaced him word for word with Lee Smolin in 2019. His community doesn’t value science that much so with all the evidence they said it is okay it must go to a white. They saw no problem with that as long as they continued to receive their grants and donations from these NATO governments and then go and make speeches about the importance of science and how blacks need to discover, once captured in that colonial slavery mind set nearly impossible to escape. One looks in the mirror and hates themselves and by default builds other communities and has great sociological nonsense to say what is happening, when it is truly themselves to blame 100%.

There where no grants involved in discovering what magnetism is, no big capital or institutional money, I had a theory, saved money and proved that theory that everything is in a relationship. Now no society or community can complain about lack of money for science, how did I do it with all these billionaires and powerful governments blacking and robbing me. The money is there if you want to be there from yourself and your community.

But we look at magnetism, it shows a bright future for science. The mere fact that the data shows it organizes into a wave means that it is going through some medium, this is experimental proof, why organize into a wave each and every single time no matter the pattern of interference. That means organizing into a wave is the most efficient way to travel through this medium, the first experimental proof of the existence of this medium, aether, prana, what ever.

That alone means there is so much to ask the universe before we get answers about the nature of this aether, it is all information and if we ask the right questions by observation, it will reveal itself to us. Understanding it is all information and it is a matter of asking the right questions. And through investigation in time this medium that all basic particles use a wave formation to go through will probably become our greatest technological resource when we learn through asking the right questions how it behaves. But we have experimental proof of its existence. By merely proving magnetism organizes into a wave introduces the incompleteness of the standard model in physics and the need for a separate more fundamental model that deals with interactions of the aether, one suspects everything is made of this.

Creating a monopole is one of the easiest things even though discovered by fluke. Great technological strides often happen by fluke. But governments and research institutions have spent billions looking for this monopole, that is easy to create.

Technology comes from what we know, that is why there is a great future for science.

Let us look at life. Genes were discovered by another struggling scientist who had very few resources for the need to do his duty for his purpose on this planet. That scientists name is Gregor Johann Mendel. His work laid down the foundation for the human knowledge base to include DNA. Every cop movie now includes the collection of DNA evidence to prove a suspect’s guilt or innocence. DNA is the code of life. Now DNA has 4 nitrogen bases thymine, adenine, guanine, and cytosine. The shape and functional capabilities of all life depends on the position of these 4 nitrogenous bases. These are the ones and zeros of life so to say, ones and zeros as in a binary functioning computer.

From these 4 nitrogenous bases we get all the variety of life, and it is at the end all different, they are not identical even with identical twins or triplets. How is this possible, why is each gene so unique with so many strands of DNA that are all composed of the same things. But more importantly how are these genes different, we know DNA is basis of protein creation.

The only way they can be different is because of the costs of the different types of relationships. Let us remind ourselves, the first law of information, the first law of everything ia everything is information is that everything is in a relationship and every relationship leads to a lose of freedom due to the energy costs involved. Each gene has different total relationships, different energy costs. Though tiny in terms of measurement if we ever bothered, but that tiny difference adds to a different function for that gene, thus the millions of varieties of genes are nothing but about different relationships, all having unique energy structures.

And here I would like to introduce one of the greatest scientists ever, remember Einstein could not understand that everything is in a relationship that is why he asked, does a mouse change the nature of the universe by looking at the moon, if he understood relationships, it is yes. This great scientist is none other than Nikolai Tesla. Though Tesla did not understand everything is in a relationship he understood everything is about energy. This is what he said, “if you want to find the secretes of the universe, think in terms of energy. Frequency and vibration.”

Those different combinations of the genes resulting from just 4 bases, due to the cost of energy to maintain that relationship all have different energy interactions. Each gene has a different purpose, we do not know why except it does this, but when we look at the laws of information and remembering Tesla, each gene will have a different energy signature due to the different relationships, it is that energy signature that gives it its function, that energy signature being different for each and every single gene. We still have much to grasp, that is why one says science has a great future.

Personally I respect my audience, those who bother to listen, so why not give best of what I have, here look what I have found, hopefully it will help you see things differently with the best evidence I have, if not clear, why not think about what I have said. Be aware of the politics of science.

Science has a great future in one sentence, science has a great future because though Tesla 100 years ago understood it is all about energy, we now know why, because all relationships require energy, thanks to Wheeler confirming that everything is information and that information has exactly the same qualities as knowledge, meaning we can only know information.

What is happening with genes is probably the same thing happening with particles, algorithm of information affects them both. The difference between particles is their energy, evidence says all particles are made up of same stuff, genes are just a little more complex but same principle.

The great future is we have not yet, or we are merely scratching these energy relationships, we are still so far from understanding reality but thanks to people like Wheeler explaining everything is information, Nikolai Tesla saying understand it is all about energy and different levels of energy give different frequencies, even frequencies we do not understand. And understanding that we can only know information thus knowledge is merely information we know and that all relationships have a loss of freedom because of the energy required to maintain them, all these things will lead to a greater understanding of existence, that is what science is about.

Get involved or destiny of your community will be controlled by others who are genuinely evil and historically have committed great evils upon yourself and community but will always tell you look over there, that is “anti Christ” when they are the “anti Christ” anti Christ in quotes. Most do not have atom bombs to stand against such evil, we must participate in science to defend ourselves.

As humans plan for space, there is no excuse for any community, or country to be left out except the disrespect of knowledge as a cultural trait.

Natural Sciences and Relationships

 We know what science is. Science is the understanding of relationships and classifying them. A ball of gas burning in the sky has been classified as a star. When one mixes copper plastic, silicone, and many other things we get a relationship which we have classified as a television, and when we watch a television, we are having a relationship with that television. A relationship with a certain pattern has been called a mountain, and those that live on the mountain are having a relationship with that mountain that involves more energy than one who merely looks at the mountain. But the one looking at the mountain is also in a relationship with that mountain though less energy intensive, but still in a relationship. An animal with a vagina has been classified as a female as differentiated from a male.

Many disciplines can thus roughly be considered science depending on how much they analyze and classify relationships. But is using the scientific process enough to for something to be considered a science as a whole. Science is ultimately about understanding the costs of a relationship, though at its beginnings it is about understanding the relationship itself. If one smokes to much the cost of the relationship is less use of one’s lungs.

But again one can argue that archaeology is both an art and a science. But for now, to understand things in a deeper manner, archaeologists need to date things, we have the instruments, coming back to reality all information can be used to tell the time, look hard enough the clues of time are all around.  But archaeology also gives us patterns about civilizations of the past using archaeological techniques, linguistics. Done properly science is apolitical, it looks at things and patterns and gives evidence for those things, patterns and relationships.

So, science is about understanding relationships and classifying them, when information has such and such a relationship a human being is the result but depending on the relationships the result can be a stone, a star, a wolverine, water. Let us talk natural sciences.

In natural sciences we can get a direct result that has a relationship that is 100% certain. When one talks of a relationship that is 100% certain it means every time a similar pattern appears, if a similar pattern does not appear with 100% certainty, it is not that thing, similar but not that thing. Give human beings $1 000 it will be spent in many ways according to the taste of that individual information package classified as a human being. But if you make an alloy with 1000 grams of manganese and 2000 grams of iron, you will always get certain properties. That is the difference between natural sciences and social sciences

Understanding with 100% certainty what will happen because the relationships are strictly about proportions, these proportions we know because we have tested them, and they can be tested with 100% certainty.

Given that everything is in a relationship, and everything is made up by relationships, though science itself is about understanding and categorizing these relationships, it categorizes these relationships by understanding the patterns. Natural science always looks at certain patterns, these patterns have such a data that is a perfect fit to a statistical distribution pattern with the physical sciences. If something does not fit even slightly with expected pattern, then it is something else or a contradiction.

Biology deals with life, thus there is no perfect fit as such at the more complex level but there are identifiable distribution patterns, how certain germs grow will have a certain distribution pattern, if that general pattern is not met, then it is a different germ rather than the one we expected. A normal distribution explains much of nature, but not all.

In all natural sciences the process requires an investigative process. The definition, the categorization or classification of a relationship must be certain. The categorization comes after one understands the relationships of whatever it is they are looking into.

To understand trajectory, we can not start with the mathematics and a formula. First humans had to understand what is going on, the relationships involved, and then they found a way to quantify these relationships and now with great accuracy. Only after understanding these relationships can we begin using mathematics for predictions. We now know with great accuracy if we apply so much force, and we can calculate the force, given certain atmospheric conditions a projectile will land at position X. Mathematics is just a way of expressing those relationships, the commonality of all things when such and such happens to them.

If we look at this concept of mathematics, when we take the whole thing back to what is common to all information, the smallest packages of information we get basic particles. Now let us to make things easy say there are 3 basic particles, 1, 2, and 3. And let us say these three are the basic building blocks of everything. We want to look at the power of mathematics and where it comes from, so it is best to simplify things, 3 basic particles.

When particle 1 has a relationship with another particle 1 we get certain properties of the resultant relationship. When particle 1 has a relationship with particle 2 we get certain properties, these properties will be different from the properties, and thus particle that is no longer a basic particle, but this particle will have different energy definitions than relationship 1, 1. A different kind of loss of freedom.

The relationship particle 1 has with particle 3 will result in different energy costs, different losses of freedom. This relationship between  1 and 3 is different and unique. Hopefully one gets the jist, particle 3 having a relationship with particle three results in a different relation than a relationship between 3 and 2, or between 1 and 2, or 3 and 3, different relationships defined by different costs in energy.

The energy allowing these relationships we call free energy, energy over and above necessary for keeping the particle as a particle. This energy is what allows for relationships.

When particle 1 has a relationship with another particle the laws of existence, programmed into existence say if relationship is with another particle one we get such properties, if it is with a particle 2 or 3, we get such and such properties and the cost of the relationship in terms of energy is so much energy. It is determined by an algorithm, if this then that.

We truly must thank the region that is now Uzbekistan but was part of the conquered lands of the Persian Empire when they gave birth to Muḥammad ibn Mūsā al-Khwārizmī, the one who gifted us with algorithms, the word algorithm comes from his name. It is latinized for al-khwarizmi.

When particle 1 has a relationship with another particle we then can calculate the cost of this relationship and put a mathematical formula. This algorithm continues down throughout the bulk, densities of complexities of information. Until we get life and intelligent life, the algorithm still applies. We break up this algorithm into system that we can understand, like trajectory, if we apply such a force to a material of such and such density, volume, size, we shall get such and such a trajectory. All part of the algorithm, but we have defined the if this then that to basic questions as how much force we get this and that.

It even applies to us as human beings, did he or she go to the supermarket or did they go to the corner store. Different relationships are a result of those differences, we shall use different velocities to get to the supermarket rather than the corner store, one could go East to the supermarket or south to the corner store, that alone shows different relationships. Though we are the decision makers in many of our actions, this algorithm applies as much to throwing a ball as to if one gets infected by something, to one going to the corner store.

Mathematics helps us to understand the result of different relationships, apply 6 pounds of force is different from apply 6.25 pounds of force. If one applies six pounds of force relationships are different from applying 6.1 pounds of force. Mathematics allows us to generalize the if this then if that with a formula, but we must first experiment to get to the first step.

Natural science has the idea of predictability that is accurate. If I heat a certain virus in a test tube to a certain temperature it will die. If we pass hydrogen chloride gas through water, we get hydrochloric acid, we will not get anything else. Thus, one can say the relationship between hydrogen chloride and water will always lead to hydrochloric acid. To understand fully hydrochloric acid, we need to know the relationships that lead up to hydrochloric acid.

Though talking of natural sciences, this is important in natural sciences, to understand a human being, we must understand the relationships that have made them who they are up to that point.

Natural sciences deal with a high degree of certainty in predicted relationships. It does not deal with this will most likely happen, especially the physical sciences. We have things like automobiles, televisions, anti biotics, tetanus shots, insulin, robots, flexible jeans, space stations, electricity because of the high degree of certainty given the natural sciences.

What then is biology? Biology is the study of life. By studying life, it seeks to understand the relationships that create and sustain life. Well, there was a time we did not understand for example the relationship between vitamins and a healthy human being. We did not understand cell structures and how cells metabolize food so that we can have energy. We did not understand the role of white and red blood cells, we understand this all because of biology.

We understand why cell structures of plants and animals are different, they fulfill similar but different relationships. We understand the process of photosynthesis. This is because of the breakdown of relationships in life such that we can understand all these things.

We understand that fungi communicate, I mean, this is all from understanding the relationships around life. We have cures for many things that ail us because of the advancement of medicine and how the body works.

We know about genes and their relationship to the function of life; all life has genes and to one extent or another some genes are common to all life.

What is chemistry? Chemistry is the study of the material world. By studying the material, what has often been called matter, we are looking at the universe and its properties from the atom up, from the elements up and the relationship of these elements and the relationships involved with matter. When we mix two parts of hydrogen with one-part oxygen we get water.  

We look at the elements and the resultant molecules and relationships from combining these elements. At the end of it all, all the complexities we see in the universe is studied by chemists. The beginnings for one to be competent in chemistry is to understand the periodic table and the properties of each elements, the basic atomic structure of all the different materials, the different matter. We have hydrocarbons, proteins, alloys, this is all the way of the chemist, understanding these relationships is the way of the chemist.

Thank the chemist for the plastic age, it is not all bad, it is part of the casings for our computers, televisions, radios, as well as plastics we didn’t know would end up choking sea turtles and end up in fish that we consume.

The fuels we have, the full exploitation of crude oil, this was the job of the chemist.

Chemistry is about understanding the relationships of the material, and there are so many of them big wide and deep field and always getting deeper is we look for better and stronger materials.

What is physics? Physics is the study of motions of matter, its fundamental building blocks. When studying physics we are trying to understand the relationships around all matter in any system. Understanding the relationship gravity has with matter we know trajectory for example will be different on earth than it is on earths moon, or Jupiter, or Saturn, or Uranus, this is because of relationships with gravity, they affect motion.

 

What is relativity, well one hour with whom one loves seems too short and 20 seconds on a hot flame seems like forever, paraphrasing Einstein. Relativity is just about certain types of relationships and energy costs, nothing falls outside the first law of everything, everything is in a relationship and all relationships lead to a lose of freedom due to the costs in energy.

Let us look at relativity. Let us just first take the bending of light, that is because light has a relationship with something that it bends, it must bend and this bending is due to energy exchanges, its part of the cost of the relationship that it must behave in such a certain manner, remember the algorithm that is basis of all relationships if this then that, the big algorithm itself is named the algorithm of information. But taking a section of the big algorithm we can understand relativity and put mathematics to it.

The closer we move to the speed of light; time passes more slowly. Again, this is just about relationships, the algorithm says the faster one moves, the less aging, how fast one is moving determines that relationship and we have put mathematics to it. But again, this all has to do with motion, just understanding motion at greater and greater depths.

Physics also looks at the relationships around the behaviour of basic building blacks of nature, discrete particles. We know that when we look without measuring, they behave as a wave, and when we try to measure, they behave as particles. We know the concept of locality is broadened because of the relationship basic particles can take with each other. This relationship is entanglement. We can know the polarity of the entangled particle even if it was 30 billion light years away.

It is about relationships, science is about the categorization of relationships and understanding the energies involved in those relationships.
