explain what Heaviside did

Oliver Heaviside (1889) refined the idea of “electromagnetic mass.”<grok:render card_id="0839e5" card_type="citation_card" type="render_inline_citation"><argument name="citation_id">29</argument></grok:render> In 1881, J.J. Thomson calculated that a moving charged sphere experiences extra inertia. The motion generates a magnetic field that interacts with the charge, effectively increasing the sphere’s mass (an electromagnetic self-induction effect).<grok:render card_id="c8b622" card_type="citati...

Fair. I based this on reading the Edmund Morris biography of Edison a few years ago.

You can get a good idea of Dalio's work from his X account.

We live through our own central bank manipulation especially after 2007-08 financial crisis. I think you would also benefit from @RayDalio work. He incorporated a lot of history and analysis into these books.

I watched "Princes of Yen", it was interesting. When I was a young engineer, Japan was thought unstoppable and their practices were emulated. I remember their stock market crash but never heard of the central bank link.

Interesting. My personal thinking, use VTI and VXUS, allocation changed every year or so. I think VTI valuations for tech are crazy for the last few years.

Civilisation's Thermodynamic Corridor Below is the full series of articles, very happy to post this on a Friday. There are 5 parts: The Arena The Machine The Trajectory The Viability Problem The Implications This is a framework for how to survive and grow a civilisation living on the thermodynamic gradient between a stellar object and deep space (where we live). It is based on first principle axioms of physics, such as the laws of thermodynamics. It is grounded in geometric algebra and mathematical rigour. This is not sci-fi, this is the actual human condition. It is utterly fascinating when view through this framework. There is also a results register which I will attach below.

Great point. Fascinating to watch leafcutter ants work, here's a video I made in Costa Rica earlier this year youtube.com/shorts/84eYmfmQR…

A beautiful goal, at what level is the data? Organelle? Nuclear Pore Complex interface? The next challenge will be turning data into knowledge.
