Interesting book. IMHO neither the weird rules of Quantum Mechanics nor the
Standard Model can be really fundamental. Why do we have 3 generations of
matter (electron, muon, tau & up/down, charm/strange, top/bottom quarks) and
not 1, 2 or 4? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LeptonWhere do the strange rules
from Quantum Mechanics come from? It would be nice if the rules of Quantum
Mechanis would somehow emerge from waves propagating in the quantum
fluctuations of empty space. -J.

't Hooft has been has a book on these topics.[1] He has papers periodically
like this one where he socializes the idea in different ways. The argument in
this paper is if there were fast background variables, in quantum experiments
like the double slit experiment, it could explain how these probabilistic
measurements occur, with only deterministic drivers. He goes on to
speculate that it may have implications for modifications to the Standard Model
at the highest energy domains, such as the muon experiment Frank mentioned
might be hinting at. It is much easier for me to believe than 11 and 24
dimensional spaces, branes, and all that. Perhaps that's what Jon is
suggesting: Sure, I do have some sort of agency (personality) that makes me
favor some hypothesis over others, and thus some kinds of evidence over others
-- it is a preference for premises and conclusions that aren't buried in layer
after layer of math that could very well be wrong. The deterministic story
of entanglement -- the giant CA of the universe -- seems to work. I can't
help wonder if some people hate it JUST because it does take away their
understanding of what science is?[1]

Will in the AtlanticHa! OK. I'll try to read that. I read the abstract 4 times
and still don't know what I'm about to read. I read the introduction once and
still don't know what to expect. My next step is the Discussion, then the meat.
If you care to toss a bone, I'd appreciate it. But then again, you might be
rewarding me for being lazy.On 4/8/21 9:58 PM, Marcus Daniels wrote:> >
