Relativity is Relatively Misunderstood

[Martin Hash]

If you think you can falsify general relativity, then my suggestion is to write a paper and submit it to an appropriate journal for peer review.

Dude, I have 3 doctorates, and am the only simultaneously licensed doctor, lawyer, accountant & engineer in the the world, and that gives me no credibility. Getting another doctorate will add exactly zero to that credibility. I need to be famous, and when I'm famous, doctorates in anything are gold, and apply to all fields.

I think I can relate to you, Dr Hash. I can't boast the same accomplishments (though we'll see what the future holds), but I don't understand your idea here in relation to what StA said. Your doctorates prove you are extremely capable of learning and so on, absolutely, but an appeal to the effect of doctorates on public opinion and public credibility has absolutely nothing to do with your credibility on physics. Maybe I'm misreading your intent with this reply, but an ethos appeal falls flat logically when the authority is in a different subject matter. Your doctorates might help you influence people if you become famous, but they won't inherently make you any more right. To prove your ideas in the scientific court of as-close-to-fact-as-we-can-get is a different animal than the public court of opinion.

Einstein was a patent agent with no advanced degrees, just using his cognitive abilities. He eventually proved his smarts after the fact. I’ve already proved my smarts.

If you read about how Einstein and other mathematicians came up with the equations for General Relativity, it gives me little confidence they were correct. I’ve written million-line programs by myself, and with others, my logical skillset is highly refined.

I was on TV when I was in the 5th Grade for being precocious. I was a millionaire by 32. I’m the only one ever to be a simultaneously licensed doctor, lawyer, accountant & engineer. I claim to be The Wysest Myn in the Wyrld. Don’t underestimate me just because I’m not famous.

The first question I would pose is that isotope decay may also be relativistic. It’s because lightspeed is constant that all these seeming anomalies occur; if that applies to radioactive decay too, then, baby, we got some space-time issues to work out.

That’s exactly why the clocks go out of sync. Why wouldn’t it be?

As was said so succinctly earlier - “atoms have mass”.

Take me farther down your reasoning.

In short, atomic clocks depend on the actions of atoms - which have mass.

As Einstein pointed out, mass moving much, much faster than Observer will experience slower time.

The atoms that give the clock time are being affected by the speed, thus time dilation affects the synchronization with ground-based clocks.

I think Hash is on to something personally. I dont trust Einstein's theory of relativity either. I know it's a working model but there is probably something wrong with it. He probably stole it anyway from the patent office, I doubt he had an original idea ever.

He jewed some pollack out of the "intellectual property" rights at a Swiss beer joint.

I think he stole tech from the nazis before it was cool

Here’s the deal:

Re-examining stuff that people take as gospel is a hoot, plus a century from now Science will have disproved a lot of the shit we accept as fact now; I’m trying to predict what those things are: time travel seems like a good bet.

p.s. Even if this is a farce, it stills serves the purpose of entertainment.

I’m thinking that somewhere in here it just turns out to be a measurement problem (as I explained in my bullet example).
