Even without the math, I think the main point is that of field vs particle. We talk a lot about networks. But you can imagine a smooth blob of goo (maybe like Silly Putty or pizza dough) being stretched and kneaded such that some parts are hard-ish clumps and other parts thin or splitting.

I don't know nearly enough mind bending high levels abstract maths to have more than tons of questions. I thought information (in the math sense) 'just' meant 3 of something and you might know of what but the absolute value of that 3 is the piece of info your starting with, and keep from being

Thank you for this article. Subject matter related to quantum fields, the Schwinger effect and the Casimir effect are very much where my mind has been lately. I continue an attempt to reconcile recent thoughts on the different candidate GUTs, the resolution of infinite contributions of virtual

70-year-old quantum prediction comes true, as something is created from nothing https://bigthink.com/starts-with-a-bang/something-from-nothing/ It seems like this is another example where the arrogance of the abstraction reigns. Because the math relating holes and electrons is the same (?) as
