(m = 0.511 MeV) IS TRUE Lorraine Ford
i understabd this a stymbolic representation and not an actual mass. One might say,like an autobiography is not a person There is however some element of truth in it.The weiting does not show the whole truth, that makes the person.i think we lost some important distinction by getting rid of the standard kilogram. Mass is related to existence as fermion matter, and hence atomic mass. The effect it has on the environment is observation independent. The other side of the equation is a measurement product. A result obtained because of the unnatural relationship betreen measured and measuring apparatus/ To say that the REPRESENTATION OF emergent vaue and the REPRESENTATION OF intrinsic can be equated and further qualified by IS TRUE is not entirely truthful.

    (continuing the above merry theme)

    The Shtetl-Optimized blog is a good example of a poultry shed where the roosters loudly crow that the box of wires and circuits is conscious.

    But just like the failures of analysis of Georgina’s fixated rooster who mistook an oil bottle for a living thing,

    these human roosters have fixated on superficial appearances, and have failed to analyse the very basics of how the box of wires and circuits is made to work.

    The essence of the box of wires and circuits is that circuits, transistors, and voltages, together with computer programs, are used to represent something else: man-made symbols. In other words, the circuits, transistors, and voltages, together with the computer programs, are themselves man-made symbols used to represent other man-made symbols.

    These “other” man-made symbols are things like mathematical equations, number symbols, and symbols for logical connectives (these logical symbols are used to represent (e.g.) analysis, collation, and identification).

    But it is not symbols all the way down, turtle upon turtle, with a turtle at the base. At the base is conscious experience, which is not a symbol, but a thing that human beings can only represent with symbols (words and sentences; logical connective symbols, etc.).

        Ii think the original statement ought to have been (m = 0.511 MeV/c squared) if complying with mainstream notation for mass
        It makes mass which is a property related to number of fermion particles the same as a measured energy value though energy has no fermions. Equivalence belongs to particular explanatory framework- namely Rrelativity. Though the James Web telescope calls ito question the Big Bang, consequence of Relativity,. I have called into question the light clock argument thought experiment demonstration of Special Relativity and elsewhere General Relativity. By proposing the sensory data in the Uni-temporal environment are the reason for the appearance of space time and space time continuum, not slices of still existing material present of a reference frame, both are in doubt. in the RICP Framwwork energy is change or potential for change and is a foundatioal quality of the universe as is existence but they are not eqquivalent in what they are.

          (continuing my previous comment)

          Re the human use of symbols, which were created by human beings, and which are continually used by human beings to represent all aspects of the world, so much so that human beings are barely conscious that they are in fact using tools (symbols) all the time:

          Contrary to what Georgina seems to be saying, the human use of symbols to represent the world has been very successful. It works: spacecraft have successfully been sent to Mars.

          Re “what Georgina seems to be saying”:
          It is difficult to decipher the symbols because the spelling, grammar, punctuation, and written content, is always messy and disorganised, and uses special terms (like “Uni-temporal”, and “still existing material present”), the meaning of which are only known to herself.

              Lorraine Ford
              Uni-Temporal ; the Uni, part of the word means just one , temporal means to do with time. A Unitemporal model has no geometric time dimension. All _existing _hings are at the same and only time of Object, material, Basment level, Source reality. Accounting for the different times seen by different reference frames by allowing the emergent time exception for observers generating the semblance of the Source from recieved input sensory data.
              Still existing is used to indicate the situation that something that has in materially reality happened but contiues to materially exist ( Is not past and consequently No more)) It can therefore be re-experienced again. Time travel and paradoxes arising are a consequence of utilizing an explanation with a time dimension. Not incurred with my explanatory framework.

                i am not arguing that symblic language is not useful when used carefully to express ideas. Lorraine's use of IS TRUe does not make the thing repressented objectivly true, Matter might be desroyred releasing energy.The matter is not therfore euivalent . Anymore than an ice sculpture is equivalentto a puddle. IS TRUE written following a misleading statement, doesn't help

                The world is differentiated; therefore the world must differentiate. There is a necessary knowledge/ information aspect at the foundations of the world.

                Our world is differentiated into different fundamental categories, like mass or position, and different numbers that apply to these categories. Therefore, it is logically necessary for our world to have a fundamental-level knowledge/ information aspect to enable the world to differentiate/ discern difference in its own categories/ relationships, and numbers.

                This knowledge/ information aspect of the world can only be represented via the use of logical connective symbols. So, knowledge/ information is always represented in the following type of format:
                (category = number) IS TRUE .
                Or
                (category = number) IS FALSE.

                So, it is necessary that our world can differentiate a situation where (what we would represent as)
                (m = 0.511 MeV) IS TRUE
                from a situation where (what we would represent as)
                (m = 105.7 MeV) IS TRUE.

                (or more correctly, as Georgina pointed out:
                It is necessary that our world can differentiate a situation where (what we would represent as)
                (m = 0.511 MeV/c2) IS TRUE
                from a situation where (what we would represent as)
                (m = 105.7 MeV/c2) IS TRUE.)

                Contrary to the idea that a mathematical world wouldn’t have a knowledge aspect, in fact, any differentiated mathematical world needs a knowledge/ information aspect. When doing mathematics, using mathematical symbols, the mathematician plays the part of the necessary knowledge/ information aspect.

                The point I’m getting to is this:
                The potentially experimentally measurable aspect of the world is representable as (e.g.):
                m = 0.511 MeV/c2,
                but the corresponding knowledge/ consciousness aspect of the world would be represented as:
                (m = 0.511 MeV/c2) IS TRUE.
                The “IS TRUE” aspect of the world is not measurable; the knowledge/ information/ consciousness aspect of the world can’t be measured.

                This contrasts with the flattened-down world of computers where voltages are used to represent absolutely everything (e.g. categories, numbers, logical connectives). Everything, including the voltages that represent “IS TRUE” is potentially measurable in a very much slowed-down computer.

                  Lorraine Ford
                  Mass as a quality in material reality refers to the way an object having that mass responds gravitationally and inertially,. Relationships between the object and the environment , and vice versa. That is not equivalent to a single number. Inclsion of a subjective judgement doesn't help. The truth of the statement as a representation of material , observation indpendent reality is or isn't true without human judgement. What is thought will be influenced by the explanatory framework assumed to apply and not necessarily considered further. 'Proportioal to' would be closer than 'equivalent'.

                      Re the strange, special terms that you have invented in your "explanatory framework":
                      There is no such thing as your “Uni-temporal environment”; there is no such thing as your “still existing material present”, and there is no such thing as your “material reality”.

                      Similarly, there are no such things as your “Relationships between the object and the environment”. In physics, there are only relationships between categories of information; there are no relationships between objects.

                              I am CRITICISING your model of reality.
                              Your model of reality does not stand up to any sort of scrutiny.
                              People will always criticise models of reality, and they need to be able to stand up to criticism.
                              You are claiming that things that don't exist, DO exist: e.g. “Uni-temporal environment” is not a thing that exists.

                                I might add that, you probably have never received much criticism of your model of reality because people have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Also, most people have no particular interest in models of reality.

                                  i said something about equivalence when it comes to mass which needs further thought, if number of fermions alone regardless of arragfement is all that is involved an ice sculpture and puddle are equivalent. However how the object interacts with the envirinment can vary because of thrier distribution. Centre of gravitational mass depends on arrangenent and distribution. Aerodtnamic quality is similarly effected, Perhapsi.m muddling too many ideas together but perhaps we need caution when using equivalence, This is a bit like the difference in metabolic use and effect of differntly structured fuuds ,having the sane calorific value

                                    How do we come to consepualize 'what is reality.?' Personal experience through sensory experience is one way we approach the question.. Thogh we must acnowlege that the senses themselves and limiatations due to only being able to be in one place at a time, make experience subjective and relative. Then there is what is learned or obtained withoutt direct personal experience, but assumwed to be true .An example takenas true is the periodic table of the elements ,together with the concept og atomic structure and the idea of atomic mass. That that arrangement can be made because of differences in the arrangement of exisring matter is observation independent reality . it isn't true because i have experienced it . it is to do withexistence itself that does not need to be seen to be as it is. We may accept as true things that arent,' that we have not experienced, or are mistaken about. The dimensions of existence and the space-time continuum are one such instance. The Present expwerienced by our senses does not show exactly what is existing externally-it can't. The space-time continuum is not material events in space bot distributedphoton, potential sensory data .

                                      Hypothesis of cause , interaction and overcoming the effect of gravity

                                      Motion with gravity
                                      Normally gravity acts on matter. Matter is attracted to other matter so that matter builds up into larger accumulations. So is the base substance is attracted to matter forming a coating , a ‘gravitational clot’, That clot’s interaction with the environmental content impedes the object from easily changing its motion or stationary state. In order to change its motion or stationary state sufficient force must be applied, requiring energy input in order to move the clot and object within bound to , that is in contact with the base content of the external environment.

                                      Other ways, of overcoming gravity

                                      1. Affecting the local environment. Sub-atomic particles can be affected by the external vibration of the base content of the environment because they are small enough to be able to be moved by the vibrations and have require bigger vibration of comparable size to their own to fit between the peaks and troughs of the wave form and be moved by it. Ordinary sound, Base, infra sound and radio waves of appropriate frequency and amplitude can provide the vibration needed.

                                      2. Insulating the matter from build up of base content of the external environment that would normally be attracted to it, forming a gravitational clot, impeding motion. Two parts to this remedy. Eirstly circular motion of the object to break contact with the environment. Secondly use a lower than usual content layer between the object and normal exterior environment. Such as a plasma acting like an enclosing bubble. In this way there is no immediate contact of the object’s matter with the external environment. The combination of circular motion and the plasma's low density will prevent adherence of the external environment’s base content to the object i.e, the effect of gravity.

                                      Special Relativity, slowing of clocks
                                      The mass being forced to move through the environment including base substance could account for time dilation theory of Special Relativity, The particle or object being affected by the very small wave properties of the environment or a gravitational interaction is a q uestuon of mass of the movable thing. Too much mass deforms and overwhelms the wave effect. As there is a range of behviour correlated with an existing mass interactiog with the observation independent, existing environment.

                                      Existence is non observation dependent, therefore it is non relative, one might say Absolute.

Such as raising of arms or liquid held inside a bucket as it is raised so as horizontal to the ground, centripetal force, pinning a person to a rotated wall, or a conker following the perimeter of a rotated string, that is attached to it, for example.

                                      Absolute circular acceleration
                                      Where the sensory data emitted from existing Object or objects is affected by the absolute circular motion of those source Object or objects. Effecting the appearance of the visual image generated by the distribution of sensory data received by the observer. If the source is not rotating or not at appreciable speed , rotation of the observer will affect which potential sensory data is received when. Affecting the Image generation. So the source appears to be rotating to the observer s, who might themselves be stationary relative to a rotating platform. On which they are standing.
