They tried to measure gravity from two small balls, but even if they had a minuscule difference in atoms, gravity is off. To make anything the same for a measurement would still make an error of space being in a different place.

Most would agree that Humans are a very violent species, and some think that aliens are aware of us and our violence and avoid contacting us for this reason. A lot of people naively assume that aliens are going to be far more peaceful than we are. I think this assumption is flawed, because by the very nature of being a civilization and the master of its home planet a species had to by necessity become the most dominant species of that planet. Its hard to conceive how this level of dominance could have been achieved in the first place without violence. If you're a peaceful herbivore species like a deer, you're probably not going to evolve into an advanced civilization on your world. Predators are inherently more intelligent than Prey, because they have to be. Being a predator is a prerequisite for becoming sentient and developing a civilization in the first place.That being said, it might be possible for a civilized species to shed its violent tendencies after it managed to reach that threshold, but I think being violent is necessary to get there in first place. Maybe an alien civilization shed its violent past, but I think in studying their evolutionary history there will always be a lot of hunting and warfare before it got to that point. Even if they do manage to eventually shed that, it is naive to take it as a given and just assume that they would. That's why I think it is a terrible mistake to try to speed-rush our way towards making contact with some alien species. We don't know what is out there, but whatever is out there that has risen to the top of the foodchain of its planet has managed to do so for a reason and that reason is probably NOT because they are benevolent pacifist hippies. Don't be naive.

>>16985427anything resembling human intellligence emerged a single time in history. and even of all the homo sapien subspecie only one was capable of technological civilization. it is not crazy to think that we are alone for such a vast distance that we imply dont overlap with other sentient beings. the fact that the fermi paradox exists is at least moderately strong proof that we are alone in the galaxy.
>>16996619t. Chang et AI
>>16981035Its not that humans are very violent. The universe itself is violence. Chemical reactions are violent. Bacterias are violent. Cells are violent. Organic life is violence. Humans are just the tail end of it. Any life form based in this universe will likely be violent, unless, the key here, is that the aliens are slow movers or slow reactionaries. Chemically speaking. Thus relative to our own, they will be less violent. But no matter what, their timeline may stretch thousands of years or millions, their plan is still in the same evolutionary path. Survival, through competition against others.

>>16995871Thanks anon, I actually have a different solution to this problem, I just forgot to post it last threadYou'll have to excuse my laziness with the lack of formattingIf M~ is singular, we're done, so assume M~ is not, we need to show det M~ =1It's sufficient to prove that M~^-1 is an integer matrix, since M is an integer matrix, and skew symmetry of M implies Det M~ >= 0Then, let x be the unique vector such that M~x=ej, so if x is an integer for all j, M~^-1 is an integer matrixLet u(k) = sum i>k x(i), v(k) = sum π(i)<k x(i), v(1)=u(n)=0,v(n+1)=u(0) (note this implies the map v->x is an injection) x(k) = u(k-1) - u(k) = v(π(k)+1) - v(π(k)) (1)It can be shown (Mid x)_k = u(0) - u(k-1) - u(k), (Mπ x)_k = v(π(k)) - v(n+1) + v(π(k)+1)By our definition of x, ((Mid+Mπ)x)_k = 2δ(k,j)So, v(π(k)) + v(π(k)+1) - u(k-1) - u(k) = 2δ(k,j) (2)and, v(π(k-1)) + v(π(k-1)+1) - u(k-1) - u(k-2) = 2δ(k-1,j) The difference is v(π(k))+ v(π(k)+1)-v(π(k-1))-v(π(k-1)+1) + u(k-2) - u(k-1) + u(k-1) - u(k) (3)From (1) u(k-2) - u(k-1) + u(k-1) - u(k) = v(π(k)+1) - v(π(k)) + v(π(k-1)+1) - v(π(k-1)) (4)So subbing (4) into (3) and halving: v(π(k)+1) - v(π(k-1)) = δ(k,j) - δ(k-1,j) (k=2..n) (5)Let k=n, u(k)=0, u(k-1)=u(k) + v(π(k)+1) - v(π(k)) from (1), subbing into (2) and halving simplifies to v(π(n)) = δ(n,j) (6)Collectively, v(1)=0, (5) and (6) are a system of n+1 equations in n+1 variables that can be written as Dv=aD has at most one 1 and one -1 in each row, so is totally unimodular by a known result of PoincaréD is invertible, since otherwise we'd have distinct solution v, implying distinct x, contradicting uniquenessa is an integer vector, so then v is too, because D^-1 is integer, and x is too for any jComment too long.

>>16995995Interesting. I spent a while looking for a "direct" proof like this but couldn't find one before I found the quadratic form business. I wonder whether your proof is just a computational distillation of mine or more fundamentally different, since my proof isn't much more than dressed-up elementary linear algebra anyway.

Where do orphan genes come from? Why do interdependent systems exist? Time and mutation cannot create anything, they can only destroy. And the timelines don't make any sense.https://xenosarc.substack.com/p/from-a-mathematical-and-logical-standpoint
>>16996590>the initial designThat isn't how evolution works, though, the initial design would be more like the alphabet than the books.
>>16996053bro is so filtered and assblasted by biological evolution he'll argue chemical evolution doesn't exist lmfao. btw biological evolution is a direct corollary of chemical evolution.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_evolution
>>16996590Which is why the book analogy shouldn't be taken too far, since a book has a clearly defined purpose.You might disagree that random mutation and natural selection lead to life as we know it today, but you seem to be disputing that the process, in principle, could work at all, which is just stupid. (the former is stupid too, but less so)It really isn't hard to wrap your head around it. A random change to the gene that has no effect on an organism's ability to reproduce will proliferate. Eventually enough changes will accumulate that they will have a statistically significant impact on the organisms reproduction. If it's a positive effect it will be selected for, if it's negative it will be selected against.

>>16996421I personally find Tegmarks Mathematical Universe Hypothesis compelling. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_universe_hypothesisI arrived at this independently through some thought experiments. Basically: our universe is either mathematical in nature, or our mathematics is insufficient to describe it and needs to be extended to cover the "non mathematical" parts. In my opinion the only thing that can exist in existence is the possibility of math, which is enough to encode every possible universe state and transition. Nothing apart from math exists, although some math structures may be upset to learn this fact.

>>16994232Humans are 100% animal.
>>16996520I would say that humanity is splitting into subspecies. Homo vulgaris, and homo domesticus. Vulgaris are the chads and jocks, they use violence to solve problems, don't like thinking too much, and are very effective at riding society to spread their genes. Domesticus, or the domesticated man, are the nerds. They prefer using logic and words to solve problems instead of violence, they like learning and thinking and being depressed, and they generally don't spread their genes very well, despite providing a lot of value for society itself.
