      Thank you; it's apparent you know what you're talking about. I guess I owe Einstein more credit. Peter Higgs too; regardless of CERN, after creating the atom cores of several elements, I noticed that the atom mass compares to the number of nucleons on the surface, not the total amount. Thus indicating some kind of interaction with the ether is needed for "creating" mass.
      With some nucleons being partly obscured, it's not strange that the atom mass is often a fracture, and not a whole number of U's. The minor difference between P and N doesn't account for this.
      You'll probably think I'm insane, but to me the universe is completely Newtonian, having only one elementary particle. The rest being smoke & mirrors :)
      If you can get around my arrogance, you'll find my crystal micro-machines where (half) quarks spin in and out of the atom locally, creating Heisenberg's uncertainty.
      All the shields comply with their respective atom mass, valence, vander Waals radii, radioactive emission (if), physical and chemical properties, and all my atoms are self-creating. Once you figure out the shape of a single nucleon, it's not that hard: Force them onto each other, and the periodic table emerges by itself. What are the odds?
      Only difference, Curium is the completed 7th shield, not Californium :)
      All nucleons want to decay into protons, but some have to keep a low profile to prevent gridlock. That's how you can distinguish the neutrons.
      Madness, isn't it? But it complies..
      I'm an obsessive recluse with a 152 IQ; not to brag, but to point out that despite me being a crackpot, I'm not wasting your time. (Admitting numerous people out there who are smarter than me, or more talented.)
      It took me a year to figure out what the atoms look like, and 9 months to calculate the radius of the graviton using photons (which turned out to be the Bohr radius, thus deviating from mainstream values).
      Now I'm struggling for over 5 years to figure out the exact origin of the spectral lines of H, so I guess I'm getting senile...
      Feel free to check my website for your amusement. You'll recognize my atoms years from now, by somebody else's hand, because I don't exist:
      Recognition is a scarce commodity, my friend.
      Have a nice day :)

      @Heisenberg-SchrodingerEmc2 Rape and revenge films are a subgenre of exploitation film that was particularly popular in the 1970s.
      Explanation of the subgenre
      Rape and revenge films generally follow the same three-act structure:[citation needed]
      Act I: A usually female character is (violently) raped and maybe further abused, tortured or left for dead.
      Act II: The character survives and may rehabilitate themselves.
      Act III: The character exacts revenge and/or kills their rapist(s).
      In some cases, the character is incapacitated or killed at the end of the first act, and the "revenge" is carried out by their family, as in The Virgin Spring, I Saw the Devil, Nocturnal Animals, the original The Last House on the Left, The House of the Spirits, and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.
      In Gaspar Noé's 2002 film Irréversible, the structure was reversed, with the first act depicting the revenge before tracing back the events which led to that point. Roger Ebert argues that, by using this structure as well as a false revenge, Irréversible cannot be classified as an exploitation film, as no exploitation of the subject matter takes place.[1]
      The genre has attracted critical attention.[2][3][4][5] Much of this critical attention comes from feminist critics examining the complex politics involved in the genre and its impact on cinema more generally. More recently, a broad analysis of the rape-revenge genre and concept was published in Rape-Revenge Films: A Critical Study, by Alexandra Heller-Nicholas. The book argues against a simplistic notion of the term "rape-revenge" and suggests a film-specific approach in order to avoid generalizing films which may "diverge not over the treatment of sexual assault as much as they do in regard to the morality of the revenge act."[6]
      In addition to American and French films, rape/revenge films have been made in Japan (e.g., Takashi Ishii's Freeze Me), Finland,[7] Russia (The Voroshilov Sharpshooter), Argentina (e.g., I'll Never Die Alone; [2008]; original title: No Moriré Sola), and Norway (e.g., The Whore [2009]; original title: Hora).

      Yeah gravity would still be pulling the worker down, however gravitational forces would no longer exert power on him. An experiment to prove this is poke holes on the side of a water battle, towards the bottom. Plug them, fill bottle with water and drop it. Right before you let go remove your finger from the wholes and you will see the water begin to pour out, but when you drop the bottle, the water stops coming out. Gravity is still pulling the bottle down but the gravitational forces are no longer acting on the water and therefore it remains inside the bottle as long as it's in free fall.

      "[1] Gravity would still be pulling the worker down, however [2] 'gravitational forces' (whatever *that* means--what's the distinction?) would no longer exert power on him." WHICH IS IT???
      Whether or not water is inside a bottle, gravity still exerts the force to accelerate it, does it not? Ever heard of this thing called rain? Waterfalls?
      Gravity affects the water and the bottle equally, which is why the water is no longer spilling from the bottle. Acceleration of earth's gravity is still 9.8 meters/second, no matter what two objects you're comparing. Drop a feather and a 50-lb dumbbell at the same time, and gravity acts upon them equally.

    The flip side of being an INTJ and 'original thinker' is that it makes relating to and working with other personality types difficult. This is especially the case when it comes to more conventional personalities in positions of authority.
    The vast majority of the World's population are people with personalities centered around their emotions. They tend to place their feelings ahead of intuitive thinking abilities. For the 2% of people with the INTJ personality type (aka same as Einstein) nothing is more frustrating than being constrained by people who can't see past themselves. Being original is a hard life to forge through. Success for an INTJ often requires the right environment and support structure to enable them to excel.

    • @UpcycleElectronics
      @UpcycleElectronics 7 лет назад +2

      Ngân Phạm
      Your right the test itself is flawed, mostly due to the way the person taking the test perceived the question and if that is repeatable. There are also underlying issues that can drastically alter the outcome, such as bipolar disorder.
      If I am not mistaken, the order of the 4 personality traits is intended to go from left to right, and from largest core traits to definitive traits of lesser magnitude.
      As an INTJ that tests consistently as an INTJ, and that heavily identifies with the type description, I get very low percentage numbers for the Judgmental category.
      I don't in any way consider myself an Einstein. I do tend to map out connections mentally in a way where I am able to draw intuitive connections that seem totally unrelated to most people. When I hear about how Einstein related thought from observing item A and drew conclusions about seemingly unrelated item B, I relate 100%.
      My mind works more on a continuum. Sleeping feels more like an inconvenience to thought, and I have to work really hard to relate to people that expect daily social pleasantries. Interesting subjects stay constantly on the back of my mind slipping in and out of active thought for weeks to months at a time, meditating on the various implications and connections. When I was younger I thought that ment I was dumb, because I hate accepting ideas at face value. I want to fully understand how and why concepts and ideas connect. With age I've learned to define that as curiosity, and develop it. It wasn't until I started to understand, most people don't like to think and actively seek out deeper thought, that I started to realize how different I am.
      I don't believe it really matters if a person is perceptive or judgemental by the MBTI definition, as it refers to Einstein. I believe its the high level Intuitive Thinking abilities that really define what he was able to understand and define.
      I generally test well over 40% in thinking and intuition, and personally, I believe that combination is what I relate to when it comes to what I know about Einstein and his way of thinking.

    'But instinct is something which transcends knowledge. We have, undoubtedly certain finer fibers that enable us to perceive truth, when logical deduction or any other willful efford of the brain is futile.' ~Nikola Tesla
    Here creativity is derived from the universe, or, if you believe, from God. That is the instict we all have.

    I don't know what, but to clear up some confusion about the falling thingie, think about a falling elevator (and you're inside of it), as it falls down, you begin to kinda "levitate" (like in the movies =P) since the momentum of the elevator itself (the kinetic energy) cancels out the gravitational force and prevent it from affecting everything confined inside the elevator (your probably just standing when the cable snapped, and by that your neither gaining potential nor kinetic energy to "resist" two powerful force) and everything inside the falling elevator is just dragged by the momentum of the elevator, enough to "screen" the effect of gravity for a while. And to clarify about the "screening effect", when falling, gravity still affects you, but in a different way, think of it as a rocket launched horizontally, without the "screening" effect, the rocket would just plummet to the ground rapidly and never hit North Korea, which is actually beneficial, in a way (remember, the rocket itself is just "standing", the propulsion system is what's making it move, giving it the kinetic energy it requires to be able to continue moving in that direction). Anyways that's my two cents on explaining stuff like this.

    Einstein strive to understand rather than just blindly learning, something that most people lacked. To imagine is to use the brain. To learn is to simply copy. When one use their imagination while learning, one can actually see the formula of certain subjects before it was made general. Such as music. Many know music but does not understand how it mix and harmonize. To do so is to listen to the instruments one by one before listening to it as a whole. Then after one learn to listen to each instruments individually, even in an orchestra the music would not be just a jumble of musical notes but rather the sound and tempo and rhyme of each instruments made into one song. In another word, by understanding a subject to its very root is to learn it through the eyes of the founder itself and from there the imagination can take it apart and rebuild. That is how Einstein learn.

So one day Einstein snapped and said something like *“If my theory of relativity is proven successful, Germany will claim me as a German and France will declare me a citizen of the world. Should my theory prove untrue, France will say that I am a German, and Germany will declare that I am a Jew.”*

    Regarding his thought of Not experiencing gravity anymore while one is falling (if he really did say that) should it be the other way around? You rather experience it stronger and stronger depending on how high and fast you are falling. When we walk on higher ground like stairs or mountains the feeling of gravity is so felt that it gives you a hard time getting up there. And when something falls the stronger it hits the ground. That why when other do commit suicide, sorry for the example, thy choose a higher ground or when a meteor enters our atmosphere it blazes cuz gravity pulls it stronger.
