Patterson Quantom Physics Abuse Reason


Steve Patterson Articles

Quantom Physics and the Abuse of Reason

we’re left with two mutually exclusive theories. On the one hand, you have a classically-determined universe, where motion is caused by concrete inputs. And on the other hand, you have the world of quantum indeterminacy, where motion is probabilistic and fundamentally random at the smallest levels. How do we resolve this conflict? We have several options.

We could say, “Quantum phenomena are more fundamental than classical phenomena, and therefore the principle of indeterminacy is ultimately true. Macroscopic-level motion only appears to be determined, but in reality, it’s probabilistic.”

Or, we might say, “Classical mechanics more accurately describes reality, and the odd results of quantum experiments are due to a lack of sophisticated-enough equipment. We’re simply missing a variable in our experiments which causes the particles to behave in seemingly-unpredictable ways. Once we learn more and can measure more accurately, the missing variable will be found, and we will be able to correctly predict the motion of quantum particles.”

Another option might be to say both theories are inaccurate, and we need to come up with an altogether new theory

The most obvious answer is the most accurate: the apparatus used to measure quantum phenomena in the double-slit experiment interferes with the results.

Quantum Computers Over Rated

 any problem solvable by a quantum computer is also solvable by a classical computer

http://web.archive.org/web/20220530025425/https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_computing

quantum computers cannot solve any problems that classical computers cannot already solve

Group averages vs individual choices

Insurance company A sample size 200

Insurance company B sample size 200

A $300 per year for 100 people, B $400 per year for those same 100 people

A $400 per year for 100 people, B $300 per year for those same 100 people

If some person does a two tailed t test based on the sample results above to try to figure out if one company is cheaper than the other one on average they will find neither one is statistically significantly different

Insurance company A and Insurance company B have the same mean, sample size and standard deviation

People allowed to make individual choices switched companies if it saved them money and did not switch if it did not save them money

People who switched from A to B saved $100 per year on average

People who switched from B to A also saved $100 per year on average

It does not make sense to use a group average to make your decision as a individual

It makes more sense to look at your own individual results than the average results of other people when making life decisions

A statistical t test would be useless to make such a decision in this case


People wear shoe type A and shoe type B for one month each, each person trying both types of shoes

Shoe type A results in 70% of the people slipping on a workplace floor within a month

Shoe type B results in only 30% of people slipping on a workplace floor within a month

The 30% that slipped wearing type B did not slip wearing type A and the the 70% that slipped wearing type A did not slip wearing type B.  

There was no overlap in which someone did not slip wearing either type of shoe and no overlap in which someone slipped wearing both types of shoes

Statistically having a corporate or government policy of forcing everyone to wear shoe type B will result in which slipping incidents then forcing everyone to wear shoe type A

But it might make more sense to let the people decide on their own.  Those who did not slip with their individual results wearing type A shoes might choose to wear type A shoes and those that did not slip with their individual results wearing type B shoes might choose to wear type B shoes.  This might result in lower rates of slips and falls when they knew their individual results and could make choices than forcing those people to all wear the same shoe type based on whatever results had the least falls for the group even in cases in which it resulted in more falls for them as an individual.

Often in real life people who use group average results for other people make a mistake when they can access individual results for themself to make a decision

Since statistics provides no mechanism to explain results it is poor practice to enforce the best statistical results for a group of other people upon a single individual if one has a goal of the best good for a community in addition to being an violation of individual autonomy

Good practice is to find the mechanism that explains which people will have better results and which people will have worse results for making one choice instead of another choice and then to explain that mechanism to people and let them make their own choices

Good scientific practice is based on finding non probabilistic functions by which you can predict output for one set of variables by controlling the input of another set of variables not statistical probability tests which can not predict output as a function of input

Some unlimited quantities are bigger than others





Infinity is not a whole number nor a real number but a concept or a symbol that has a certain meaning for what to do when put into mathematical operators or functions that use limits in calculus

Infinity is not a whole number

If you were to go to a hotel with an unlimited number of rooms starting at room 1 and each room having a door with a room number label that is 1 higher than the previous room number you would not know which room number to go to if you were told to go to the room with the number label of infinity because there is no whole number that is equivelent to the label of infinity

Infinity is not a real number either

Infinity is not a real number that is not a whole number

If starting at door number 2 each door with a room number label on it is the same distance from the previous door as it is from the next door and that distance is any positive number of meters you want to choose which is greater than zero but not a whole number.  Then if you were told to walk a distance of infinity meters from the first room number label to reach the room number label you are supposed to arrive at for your room then you still could not find the location of your room if you went a specific positive real number of meters that was not a whole number because there is no positive real number that is not a whole number that is equivelent to infinity.  And this would still be the case no matter what positive real number of meters greater than zero you select for the rooms to be apart from each other.


Although infinity is not a real number there can be an unlimited amount for a measurement

There are two types of directions, translational directions and rotational directions

N is a positive real number

If you choose coordinates one coordinate being N meters in one translational direction from where you are and the other being N meters in the opposite translational direction from where you are there would be no limit to the maximum distance between how far apart those two points could be, no matter how large a value could be assigned to N, there could be a larger value assigned to N thus the potential distance between those two points is unlimited

The universe has unlimited length in any direction measured or direction and it's opposite measured and unlimited volume whether the amount of mass in the universe is limited or unlimited although if the amount of mass in the universe is limited then the smallest section of the universe that contains all mass in the universe inside it or the combined volume of all the sections of the universe that contain mass might have a finite volume

One can measure the distance between the coordinates of two parts of the universe that both contain empty space without mass if the universe has a limited amount of mass in it which is confined within borders of a limited volume, limited surface area and limited distance between the two farthest apart points within those borders

There is an unlimited distance in any translational direction that coordinate points can be set apart from each other, such as being N meters apart from each other no matter how large N is and still have a known location, but two coordinate points can not be set a distance of infinity length units apart from each other such as infinity meters apart from each other and still have a known location because infinity is not a number

Infinity plus one is not equal to the number of infinity

Infinity plus one is undefined because infinity is not a number

Infinity times two is not equal to the number of infinity 

Infinity times two is undefined because infinity is not a number

Infinity plus a number other than zero is not equal to itself 

Infinity plus a number is undefined because infinity is not a number

Infinity times a number other than one is not equal to itself

Infinity times a number is undefined because infinity is not a number

It is wrong to use infinity as an excuse to claim you can add a quantity greater than zero to another quantity greater than 0 without increasing the quantity

It is wrong to use infinity as an excuse to claim you can multiply a positive non zero quantity by a number greater than 1 without increasing the quantity

It is wrong to use infinity as an excuse to claim you can multiply a positive non zero quantity by a number greater than 0 and 1 than one without decreasing the quantity

Doubling a positive amount of an unlimited positive quantity will double that quantity

I am not claiming such objects physically exist in real life.  But, a object that is 2 inches by 8 inches but goes on forever in both a third direction and it's opposite, has twice the volume of a object that is 2 inches by 4 inches but goes on forever in both a third dimension and it's opposite, both objects have unlimited volume but neither object has a volume of infinity cubic inches nor infinity cubic inches times a constant that is a real number

N is a positive real number

For real numbers

Each even number except for 0 is twice one and only one odd number

Each odd number except for 0 is twice one and only one odd number

So excluding 0 there are exactly the same number of odd and even numbers

Twice 0 is 0 and half 0 is also 0 and 0 is an even number

So there is exactly one more even number than the number of odd numbers

When 0 is excluded there are either two more odd number than even numbers or an equal number of odd and even numbers between negative N and positive N

When 0 is included there is either one more odd number than even numbers or one more even number than odd numbers between negative N and positive N

The limit as N approaches positive infinity of the number of odd numbers divided by the number of even numbers approaches 1 from below

The limit as N approaches positive infinity of the number of even numbers divided by the number of odd numbers approaches 1 from above


M is a whole number

For real numbers

The number of numbers that are muliples of M excluding 0 is equal to twice the number of non zero integers divided by M

The number of numbers that are muliples of M excluding 0 is equal to twice the number of odd numbers divided by M

The number of numbers that are multiples of 2 excluding 0 is equal to twice the number of odd numbers divided by 2


N is a positive real number

For real numbers

The limit as N approaches infinity of the number of prime numbers divided by the number of composite numbers approaches 0 from above


The big bang makes no sense because the universe has unlimited volume and must be eternal.  

The total momentum of an entire universe of finite mass within each and every non accelerating reference frame is constant for each such reference frame and does not change with time due to conservation of momentum therefore the universe must be eternal according to the known laws of physics if there was a point in time in which the universe did not exist and then suddenly did exist that would violate the conservation of momentum for all non accelerating reference frames in which the total momentum of the universe was not zero.  The total momentum would change from zero or undefined before the universe existed to a non zero number after it existed which would violate conservation of momentum for such a non accelerating reference frame.  Therefore the universe must have eternally existed and not existed for only a finite or limited time unless the known laws of physics are violated.

No object with mass can travel faster the the speed of light in any reference frame according to special relativity.  The limit as the amount of kinetic energy of that object approaches infinity joules of the objects speed approaches the speed of light from below.  Although special relativity has already been disproven by me, we are going to assume no object travels faster than the speed of light.

A universe that has 100% of all the mass of non photon objects within a border of finite volume and that has a finite chemical and finite kinetic energy and finite mass within that border from a specific non accelerating reference frame would emit photons outside that border traveling at a faster speed than the non photon mass inside that border can travel.  

Electrons drop energy levels and photons are emitted some of them leaving the border resulting in a decrease in the total chemical energy or a loss of total kinetic energy of all particles added together as measured within a non accelerating reference frame in the finite boundary that contains all the mass of non photon particles in the universe unless compensated by nuclear reactions which result in a loss of mass within that boundary

Some photons which were emitted during loss of one type of energy might transfer energy from one type to another occassionally instead of leaving the boarder but some of them will leave the boarder without ever returning to the boarder because they leave at the speed of light and will never contact any object within the boundry again because the objects inside the boundary move slower than the speed of light resulting in a permanent and irreversible loss of the total kinetic energy plus chemical energy plus mass times the speed of light squared inside the boundary

Through nuclear reactions the total chemical energy in the border containing all the mass of non photon particles in the universe can increase at an amount less than or equal to the amount of mass of non photon particles lost in the universe times the speed of light squared.  It is less than or equal to the loss in mass times the speed of light squared because some photons will be emitted that leave the finite border containing all the mass within the universe.  

The absolute temperature is the mean average kinetic energy per molecue.  Thermal kinetic energy is equal to the mean average absolute temperature per mole of molecues times the number of moles of molecues.  The total chemical energy in the boundary of the universe containing all the mass of non photon particles can also increase by an amount less than or equal to the decrease in the total of the mean average absolute temperature per mole times the number of moles in the universe.  It is less than or equal to the loss in mean average temperature per mole of molecues times the number of moles of molecues because some photons will be emitted that leave the finite border containing all the mass within the universe.

 The chemical energy within the boundary can increase by less than or equal to the loss of mass within the boundary times the speed of light squared plus the loss of thermal kinetic energy within the border.  It is less than or equal to because of photons emitted outside the border.

The thermal kinetic energy within the boundary can increase by less than or equal to the loss of mass within the boundary times the speed of light squared plus the loss of chemical energy within the border.  It is less than or equal to because of photons emitted outside the border.  

The mass times the speed of light squared within the boundary can increase by less than or equal to the loss of thermal kinetic energy plus the loss of chemical energy within the border.  It is less than or equal to because of photons emitted outside the border.  

The mass times the speed of light squared plus the kinetic energy plus the chemical energy inside the border would decrease over time at a decreasing rate in any non accelerating reference frame due to emitting photons that leave outside that border.   The farther back in time you look the higher the rate of energy in photons that are emitted outside the border per time.  Looking backwards in time with no limit to how far back in time you go results in an unlimited quantity of mass times the speed of light squared plus the kinetic energy plus the chemical energy inside the border within any non accelerating reference frame.

If the mass times the speed of light squared plus the kinetic energy plus the chemical energy inside the border decreases over time then the mass although it might sometimes increase over time when compared between two short time periods through a decrease in the total chemical plus kinetic energy inside the boundary will in the long run decrease over time within the boundary because it can only increase by a decrease in the total chemical plus kinetic energy inside the boundary which when added to the mass times the speed of light squared inside the boundary is decreasing over time through the expulsion of photons outside that border moving at a faster speed than objects inside that border can move.

This means you can not start with a universe of finite starting mass all enclosed within a finite boundry that did not exist before a finite amount of time ago without violating the known laws of physics.  Any big bang theory involving a universe of finite starting mass violates the known laws of physics.  Any universe of unlimited mass that can not all be contained within a finite border can not expand anywhere and since the big bang is the claim that the universe is expanding such a universe is incompatible with the big bang.
