I was also curious if anyone had discussed the use of the VSM in gaming
software? I'm not much of a gamer, but most games track health of it's
players based on all kinds of factors. The VSM arithmetic seems like a good
way to determine overall health of a system, providing the ability to
My superficial knowledge of the subject comes from an A in a grad class at
Caltech on Relativity, long before GPS. No problem in measuring interval
between events at the same place, with a relativistic correction. The issue
here is synchronization of clocks at different points in space (CERN
I like the idea of Quantum Evolution

Why has nobody tried to combine Darwin and Einstein?
I think this is a wonderful idea. If we treat particles -
esp. fermions - as an apdative unit, then a particle would
be a kind of evolutionary
Interesting ideas! I'm not sure what would have to be true for the evolution
metaphor to make sense, however. Certainly the world is changing, but to say
that particles are 'evolving' is a more narrow claim. As I understand the
metaphor, at least two things would have to be true that I know next

At the recent Friam meeting, it was mentioned that a super-nova in a distant
galaxy had light and neutrinos arriving at the same instant.

Hi Eric,
It is not just a metaphor, the idea is that the universe is evolutionary at the
deepest level, let us say the Planck scale. Space would replicate itself at
each timestep, and time would be linked to the replication rate of the
universe. Particles somehow emerge from spacetime in this
Jochen,
By my account... well, maybe an account I usurped form Nick... which there is
no reason you should particularly care about, all explanations are metaphors. I
say that merely to note that my claim that you invoked a metaphor was not
intended to make light of your claim in any way. I only
