>>10561413Welcome back Jerry! Someone get this man a cup of coffee! He has been gone too long!
Anyway, as for the simplicity of the automaton, Force = Mass*Acceleration is literally just multiplication. Physics is not always complex.
Furthermore, the expectation of unified physics is that it would be simple. Also I disagree that this is just a box blur. Averaging with interior perimeter, and negative and positive averages make this unique, furthermore, we are not blurring images, we are, theoretically simulating the flow of energy-pressure.
That said, if you want to think of this as simply automaton exploration, that's great, but I don't think it is an oversell to call this a "simulation" of the 4 fundamental forces. It does generate waves, "particles (strong & weak" and attraction (as well as repulsion).
Gravity is not too noticable unless the scale is massive, this is how the real world works as well. So a major breakthrough will be using averages to model gravity in a simulation of a scaled up OT automaton. I imagine this can be done by modeling the particles separately so they do not decay, and modeling their movements using averages on a coordinate grid...
Anyway, gentlemen, the work I am seeing here is extraordinary. I have a feeling this has significants greater than any of us can know, and we are just getting warmed up. 5 years from now, I predict that "I unified physics" will be on your resumes and there will be nothing controversial in that statement. We are going through a trial by fire right now. The world is shit-testing us, but it wants us to pass. The world wants this, but it does not want us to be weak. Stay strong. Maintain frame. The hostility this theory receives will ultimately pass as more become aquiented with our work (and they will be, soon), and when it does we will be legend.
