>>153112204Excellent wish, Timmy
>>153112204>Hey guys, I wish that every single atom in the universe had one extra electron attached!
>>153113762What would this do? Would it blow everything up in a huge explosion of thunder or something?
>>153113836>If every single atom in the universe gained an extra electron,the resulting negative charge imbalance would destroy all stable matter, causing the universe to fall apart. Electrostatic repulsion would become vastly stronger than gravity, causing all objects to explode, atoms to turn into negative ions, and all chemical structures to disintegrate into a violent, gaseous sea of plasma.
>>153113836The universe would experience an instantaneous electromagnetic repulsion effect forcing every atom away from every other atom

Where can I watch this show in high quality.
>>153113985Food Calories are each 1000 lower-case calories, which is what scientists use.22 kilocalories is only a fraction of a chocolate bar.Not nearly as enjoyable, but not deadly.
>>15311398522000 calories is actually a ridiculously small amount of food.You must remember that calorie (small c) and Calorie (big C) are different. One Calorie is actually equal to 1 kilocalorie, or 1000 calories.A Snickers bar or 250 Calories, or 250,000 calories.
>>153114104>>153114157Goes to show how little I know, man Im dumb.
>>153114157is 250 Calories*
>>153114233it's a bit forgivable if you're in the states, almost no one uses calories correctly and food labels use big C Calories or just outright have the whole word in capital letterssome other countries say kcal on their food labels
>>153114300To be fair having the difference be a capitalized letter is a tad retarded.
>>153114435Mcal: 1,000,000 caloriesmcal: 0.001 calories

>>153114104>>153114157Reminds me of a "diet" I read about once.Nothing but ice-cold Vodka.You body expends energy warming the booze to body temperature -- more than the food-value in the liquor.Sounds plausible, if you don't know the difference between upper- and lower-case calories.
>>153113836nothing nice
>>153114517M stands for Mega, the prefix for millions. A megabyte is 1000 kilobytes, or 1 million bytes.m stands for milli, the prefix for thousandths. A millimeter is a tenth of a centimeter, or a thousandth of a meter.

>Cosmo, Wanda! I was pi was exactly 3!Would it destroy the universe, or would it only make things slightly different?
>>153113894stronger than gravityinteresting, why? like why specifically stronger than gravity?
>>153114714Gravity on its own is actually one of the weakest forces in the universe. The forces that bind your atoms together are several magnitudes stronger, but things are normal because like 99.9% of all atoms are electrically neutral: the electrons and the protons are equal in number and cancel each other out. Adding the extra electron suddenly makes every atom negatively charged, and since like charges repel, suddenly every single atom will try it's damndest to get away from every other atom. The electric charges involved would vastly overpower gravity, to the point where the expansion of the universe itself would increase exponentially.
>Cosmo, Wanda!>I wish everyone could reproduce by budding!
>>153114924man where do i get more info about shit like that, going to detail I meanalso thanks
>>153115082Wikipedia is a hell of a drug, anon
>>153115137problem is,it's not always accurate no?
>>153115147Not always, no, but it's a good place to get enough info to springboard you into topics you may never have considered looking into, at least

>Cosmo! Wanda! I wish everyone started shrinking by half an inch every week until they eventually reach the size of lego minifigures!Would society survive after conversion to this size? We'd have alot of infrastructure to take care of to prevent mass deaths
>>153115275You might wanna make it every year to give time to adapt
>>153115296Half an inch a year is too long, at most I'd go half an inch a month. The ideal is a scenario where we don't have to worry about all the planes suddenly crashing out of the sky but we do have to deal with stuff like driving cars now requiring crews of hundreds of people.
>>153115082Reality is often far spookier than anything we can dream up. For example, did you know there's an entire spooky scary skeleton inside you RIGHT NOW
>>153114550Also, once you pass out you won't be able to eat anything.
>>153114574>>153114676I like you all explaining to anon like he's just too dumb to understand, instead of just thinking setting up another calorie-Calorie confusion when you decide prefixes and their symbols is dumb.
>>153114714Electromagnetism is roughly 10e36 to 10e39 times stronger than gravity at the subatomic level. While electromagnetism dominates at small scales (atomic/molecular), gravity dominates on astronomical scales because matter is generally electrically neutral, canceling electric forces, while gravity only attracts and accumulates with mass. I remember a calculation that, if you separated the charges in a 5-cent coin by the width of the US, they'd still attract each other with a force of millions of tons. When a jarred Uranium atom fissions it's because the Strong force (very short-range) can no longer reach all the way across the distorted nucleus. Now you have two positively charged fission-fragments right next to each other and they violently repel. Its electromagnetism, NOT atomic energy, which smashes cities!!
>>153114597>>153115499Well, yes. That's the joke. But I'm sure there are people who'd try it.
>>153114616This guy have a stroke?
>>153116114>the energy released from splitting a single uranium atom is enough to wiggle, *maybe* knock over a single grain of sand>doesn't sound like much but the relative sizes involved would be like setting off 1 (one) m80 firecracker, and it makes goddamn Mt Everest shake>splitting/detonating every atom in the average 180lb human body would result in a blast that would be equal to *trillions* of Hiroshima bombs all goinf off at once>this is occurring billions of times over every single second in the core of our Sun and indeed every single star in the universe Damn nature, you scary!
>>153116390>I wish an atom in this anon's brain split
>>153112204In theory if we reworked the ratio, would this be able to solve at least slow down world hunger, without immediate obesity problems?
>>153117945Nutrition isn't just calories, you need proper vitamins and nutrients too otherwise you'll just be fat and malnourished.
>>153117945If it's small-c calories it'll make no real difference. If it's big-C dietary calories, everyone on Earth will weigh literally several tons.
>>153118077Nine times out of ten when people say calories they mean big C calories
>>153112204>one calorie (dietary calorie) per breath>average breathing rate 15 breaths per minute>four seconds per breath>4184 joules per dietary calorie (it's a unit of heat energy)>1046 extra watts of heat input for every humanThat's barely within the capacity of an athletic adult to deal with. Probably around half of humanity will be dead inside an hour, and most of the survivors will spend most of their time in or around water.
>>153114691It would redefine a mathematical constant. Math is an abstract construct invented by humans. The universe wouldn't change except for those parts of it humans use to talk about mathematical constants.
>>153114714>like why specifically stronger than gravity?You answer that one and a Nobel Prize in physics is waiting for you.
>>153114691Pi is actually 4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhuvUSS3KAE>butsilence mathcuck>bu-empiric evidence>b-no.
>>153118831Humans didn't invent math, we discovered it.
>>153119050Do you have any idea how many different kinds of math there are?
>>153113836Worse, the extra electron will go straight to your thighs.
>>153119050it's a discovery that multiple civilizations have interpreted differently.Sumerians had 60 as a base number and zero itself wasn't always a constant.
>>153119101To this day I still don't understand base 6.
>>153119050So, Mr. Platonic Idealist, is the Axiom of Choice an eternal part of the universe that humans merely discovered?
>>1531191271234510111213141520...
>>153112204Consuming or burning?
>>153119062>>153119101Yeah we interpreted what we saw, and guess what, all of those different base number systems can and are constantly compared with each other and are convertible to one another. base 10, base 12, base 60, all are the same.
>>153119166I don't get it
>>153119213Using various base systems for arithmetic isn't multiple kinds of math. Different math systems use different axioms. For example, Euclidean geometry uses different axioms than lambda calculus, and there are a lot of other axiomatic systems used in the general field called "math". There are multiple kinds of arithmetic, for example. Some of this variety corresponds approximately to behaviors seen in the physical universe, but much does not.
Do geometry and algebra have different axioms, anon? genuine question.
>>153119221In a "base x" number system, the written number 10 represents x units. Each digit can represent zero to x-1, so adding a preceding digit counts units of x.In base ten, you count 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and that's as far as you can go with a single number. So to count further, you need to keep track of units of ten in addition to the single units. So 10, 11, 12, 13, etc. This continues through the two-digit numbers, and then you add a third digit to keep track of hundreds, and so on.In binary, you count 1, then you run out of single digits. So the next counting number is 10. Then 11. Then 100, 101, 110, 111, 1000, etc. Each preceding digit keeps track of larger powers of two rather than ten. In hexadecimal, you count 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F, 10, 11, etc. Each preceding digit keeps track of larger powers of sixteen. FF in hexadecimal is equivalent to 255 in base ten.In base six, you count 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 20, 21, etc. Each preceding digit keeps track of larger powers of six.
>>153119336Yes. They concern different things, so their axioms are unrelated to each other. For example, here are the axioms of Euclidean geometry:>To draw a straight line from any point to any point.>To produce (extend) a finite straight line continuously in a straight line.>To describe a circle with any centre and distance (radius).>That all right angles are equal to one another.>[The parallel postulate]: That, if a straight line falling on two straight lines makes the interior angles on the same side less than two right angles, the two straight lines, if produced indefinitely, meet on that side on which the angles are less than two right angles.This describes a model for how shapes work in a model representing two-dimensional drawings with a compass and straightedge. It's not described with modern rigor, but nearly-equivalent versions have been. Arithmetic's axioms concern what operations it performs and what conceptual objects it operates on. For example, young children learn about counting numbers and basic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Developments from this include more complex numbers like negative values, non-integer numbers (the reals) and imaginary values (complex numbers) and more complex operations like roots, exponents, logarithms, etc. But different kinds of arithmetic can also be formulated to do different things to different kinds of conceptual objects. For example, some kinds of arithmetic operate on matrices with suitably-redefined versions of things like addition, subtraction, multiplication, etc. Arithmetic formulated for computers includes constraints related to being physically instantiated in a system of logic gates, like finite size/precision of numbers. Other kinds of arithmetic have been formulated for various other purposes.
>>153119530okay so, if they have different axioms, created at different times by different cultures and what have you, and math is not a truth that was discovered, then why can you use either to get the same answer?
>>153119084And THEN you'll explode into hyper velocity super plasma
>>153119556again, this is a genuine question.
>>153119556Different axiomatic systems, if they can both even operate on a given question, often give different answers. For example, the area of a circle in Euclidean geometry is different than it is in non-Euclidean geometry. If you picked a spot on Earth's surface, walked a thousand miles in one direction, and turned and walked around the starting point while maintaining a thousand miles distance, the circle you complete will be less than 2000pi miles in circumference, and the area it encompasses will be less than 1,000,000pi square miles.
>>153119562Actually, the scenario might be energetic enough that planets would collapse into black holes from the energy density of the electric fields.
>>153119282Alright egghead, but we are talking about a physical behaviour here, spheres exist everywhere in nature, and I think what that anon is trying to say is: what if instead of every natural sphere being "nudged" into aproximating this infinite, irrational number - the "platonic ideal" of a sphere - this number were instead a reachable value.
>>153119645>but we are talking about a physical behaviour hereSince when? I thought we were talking about math.>spheres exist everywhere in natureThey exist precisely nowhere in nature. Spheres are imaginary, mathematically-defined objects, and while some real objects can approximate spheres in certain ways, there are no physically-real spheres.>what if instead of every natural sphere being "nudged" into aproximating this infinite, irrational number - the "platonic ideal" of a sphere - this number were instead a reachable value.You can define a non-Euclidean system such that pi is any positive value you want, integer or otherwise. But any defined system is only at best an approximation of reality. The real world is non-Euclidean, and like many non-Euclidean systems, the value of pi varies with scale. But keep in mind that actual measurements will only ever measure a small number of digits, whatever pi is, due to the finite resolution (a fundamental limit no matter what technology you're working with) available to measurements made in reality. The mathematical constant pi can be calculated to arbitrary precision because it's mathematically defined independent of the real world and any measurements.

>>153125185What was the other instance?
>>153117650Wouldn't do anything. Radioactive material like uranium is already about to burst, all we really do is give it the final little nudge. The atoms in your brain dont have enough base energy to be split so easily. Also more to the point, there isnt nearly enough energy in the atoms to start, much less maintain a nuclear chain reaction that leads to things going boom. The most that would happen is a little tiny flash goes off in your head, which you wouldn't even notice as the brain has no sensory nerves

What would happen if you split every atom making up a person's brain simultaneously?
>Cosmo! Wanda! I was I could snap my fingers and make girls clothes explode off their body! and that I could also make them pee by thinking about it really hard!
>>153125121I’m still amazed this actually happened.Hopefully he gets what he fucking deserves.
>>153129258Nearly every atom in a person's brain is lighter than iron, meaning that splitting them would absorb energy. To split them, you'd need to put something on the order of a nuke's worth of energy into the person's brain and direct it to splitting atoms that really don't want to. It would, of course, kill the person, but beyond that it depends too much on the specifics to say in detail. Are they split to gaseous elements? Then the head explodes whatever else happens. Just what is the balance between the energy input and the binding energy change? A tiny percentage inefficiency could represent millions of degrees of heat energy and potentially a nuke-scale explosion. But a fairy did it, so it could be perfectly efficient.
>>153125121What the fuck did he see in this?
>>153129359What about all the iron in your blood that flows through your brain?
>>153129405The abyss?
>>153112204A google search tells me it consumes about .07 calories to take a breath. One may interpret this as changing that to 1, which would be an insane energy burn just for breathing.
>>153129405She ugly
>>153129569Iron 56 has the lowest binding energy per nucleon. It's the most stable isotope. Both fission and fusion reactions involving it absorb energy. Lighter than it, and fusion can release energy. Heavier than it, and fission can release energy. A little over 2% of iron is composed of heavier isotopes, so a little of the iron could split to produce energy, but most would absorb energy. The bigger question is what anon wants to happen to the hydrogen.
>>153116156>But I'm sure there are people who'd try itThey're called "Slavs" and there are hundreds of millions of them.
>>153114691>I was piCalm down Hugh Neutron
>>153121683>>153122594I was expecting one, too, but instead I learned that system used to count calories is completely asinine. What do you mean the unit symbol differentiating a single calorie and a thousand calories is a capital C in the same word? This naming scheme sounds like it would be used as a misunderstanding for a show's episode themed around fitness and weight gain.
