I'm not hiding because I enjoy the compliments... I just really don't want to be spotted, okay?

That sounds super interesting! Can't read it until I get home (am on vacation at Disneyland right now) but in about a week's time I hope you don't mind if I reply with my updated understanding, and maybe a question or two.

I made a comment a while back (on my alt account) about how the origin of the universe can be expressed as a simple formula: https://sopuli.xyz/comment/3303086

So, I'm curious if that viewpoint will shift at all with a better understanding of electron positron interactions. It kind of makes sense to me that the universe and the antiverse are stacked on top of each other but with time pointing in opposite directions. But I'm sure I'm oversimplifying Feynman's theory and I'll have to read his reasoning to really understand.

Not in the current standard model, for sure. Or is there a reason empirically why they simply can't be.

Mfw I read this while drinking a liter of plastic-bottled water: 😮‍💨

For the people downvoting, may I hear a counterpoint as to why this wouldn't make sense?

This is actually the first time I'm hearing about single electron theory, but I feel validated now that I'm learning about it. I have for a long time believed that the universe is made of a single photon, since photons exist outside of time. Then, if electrons are made of a "pair" of entangled photons, since every photon is the same photon, it would follow that every electron is also the same electron. And one could assert that quarks are just entangled electrons and positrons in various ratios and combinations. Which in my mind leads to the conclusion that all of time and space and matter doesn't actually exist and we are just imaginary mathematical figments.

I feel so lucky with my cat. Would never dream of scratching me. Loves belly rubs. Most affectionate one in my life. If I ever pet him the wrong way he lets me know by giving me the gentlest "bite" basically just touching his teeth to my hand. I don't deserve him.

I still haven't had it yet, but everyone around me has multiple times. So, my current working theory is I am a fully asymptomatic one-man superspreader.

Pretty flowers and closure. Two of my favorite things. Crazy that the AI could detect exactly what they were based on the original image. Thanks for following up!

You have very nice eyelids.

It stands for adjusted gross income. Ignore the AI wave. Do your taxes!
