A Four Dimensional Calabi-Yau Manifold, also known as a K3 Surface
Since Shing-Tung Yau's 1978 proof of Eugenio Calabi's 1954 theorem for a 6–Dimensional Complex, Compact Kähler Manifold, there are thought to be 10⁵⁰⁰ surfaces of C-Y Manifold flux compactifications.
The partial differential geometry of String Theory points directly to a quintic threefold within the known collection of C-Y sets, which is the exact topology that completes their theory of quantum supergravity.
Today, String Theorists are actively looking for this precise match in polytope databases such as PALP —created by Maximilian Kreuzer.
I remember the first time I saw someone on the A train reading The New York Times. It was a man in a gray suit unfolding then refolding, unfolding then refolding again and again and over and over. He seemed so important.
I barely made it onto that city-bound A train, as i almost hurled my body in through the double-doors & the infamous DING DONG! sound they made rang off. I knew the staircases well enough on the Grant Ave station to jump a few steps on the way down and had made it right into the train with ease.
The man in the gray suit could only be coming from Queens, so to me that made sense because Queens was rich in my mind, from all the stories kids told and since that was where Howard Beach was: right at the border, a place we all stayed away from.
I realized shortly after starting to mimic that important man headed to Manhattan that people only skimmed the headlines back then, too. I realized that because I had already been one of the fastest readers in the country. I couldn't recall an entire book, or maybe no one knew how to show me to do so, but I could recall a solid succession of 26 pages—front and back.
I can still recall full pages word-for-word of random books and newspaper dates. I didn't only consume The Times tho. I was reading the NY Post, The Daily News, Newsday, El Vocero and whenever I could get my hands on one that I found on a bus or left behind on a bench somewhere: The Wall Street Journal.
I studied the Books of the Past, in school—
And the Books of Today, while at home.
In initial conversations I could always tell which newspaper someone read by the words and phrases they used. Within a few minutes I could tell if they read the articles in those papers fully or skimmed through them or just read the headlines to some and read only the 2-3 that they found interesting.
How do people find things: interesting?
How do people find things: interesting?
A compelling photo, witty cop (headline, story, etc) — these things worked as the pre-clickbait era 's very own clickbait, only in physical form and in the real, non-digital world.
People will let you know themselves, what they find interesting and what they're brains are focused on.
When you learn to listen
You realize that most people are open books
And way more trusting than they need to be.
These ideas are not new.
Today they have made their way into the the internet,
As well as Social Media, too.
People post things,
They engage with content
And they like and share the same data they do as they used to in real conversations.
My problem is,
I only wish to have conversations in real life with people who interest me and with those that I love.
I am not interested in the data,
I am interested in the knowledge that comes from conversations with brilliant minds.
Brilliant and smart are not even in the same league.
I'd like to chat with Morgan Housel.
Not to pick his brain about Finance,
But to hear all the of the fun facts he knows.
Yet Rogan, with all the random knowledge he's absorbed from speaking to so many super intelligent people face-to-face, I have zero interest in. I find him a "wannabe goomba "in attitude, a bit too arrogant in demeanor, which wasn't always that way and doesn't need to be to become or be looked at as an Alfa Lion. Alfa Lions are lazy and just lay there in the sun all day, but it is understood amongst the pride that they are the alfa.
Be cool, Joe. Humble looks better on you brother.
I don't have a long list of experts or people of interest that I'd love to just sit and chop-it-up with 🗣 , but I also don't carry a particularly long list of people that I love that I give my time too.
See, as a creature of habit,
I need to fold and consume different platforms to feed my thirst.
I'm not particularly interested in many more things than the process of Science backed by trustworthy and transparent data from REAL/Authentic studies. Transparency in all science and medicine studies is crucial to accelerating formulas to maximum efficiency points, period.
You can run any simulation and it will lead to the same place.
You didn't need MathGPT to know or understand that, pre internet era.
