hey uh, science or mathsy people?
the shortest length is supposed to be the Planck length, for reason quantum physicists always skip over. the shortest time is the Planck time - the amount of time it takes to travel the planck length at light speed, the fastest speed
so
the Planck length times X equals one metre
the Planck time times X equals what amount of time
ie what i’m asking, making the assumption that both the planck length and time are fundamental and “real”, what is the conversion rate between a unit of length and a unit of time?
asking into the void but. imma have to do this maths meself aren’t i

I love how petty science is. We have pretty much all of our knowledge about anything and everything because scientists desperately want to prove each other wrong. It’s beautiful

If our world was 5-dimensional, would it be easier for us/our minds to adjust to another special dimension or another time dimension??

Science Tumblr Help
I have a question for the science side of tumblr that needs approach without bias. Because every single piece of literature I read is full of spiritual bullshit instead of science.
I held two copper wires in my hand bend in an l shape. When I walked forward, they crossed. I know my hands well, I did not change their inclination. I didn’t cross them myself. I walked with copper wires in my hands, and they cross over a specific spot. I don’t need them to cross there. I don’t want them to cross there. But I don’t hinder or help them, and they cross there. 
Are these copper wires interacting with a magnetic field of some sort? Or is there an airflow pattern that would be more likely to make them cross? 
I am a skeptic, not a spiritual person, but if I mention it to anyone they start talking about crystals and shit. I am looking for a scientific answer to a phenomenon I have witnessed. I don’t do religion, or spirituality, or any of that shit. I don’t have an agenda to prove anything. I just want to know why the rods cross without external changes, and if that has any ability to be an interaction with a magnetic field. 
I am sick of hearing a religious debate about it, don’t go there. I want a scientific explanation for something I have witnessed. i don’t want a brush off from the billions of lazy articles on google, or a psychic crazy bullshit form some mystic snakeoil salesman.  I don’t need to know what is causing the specific magnetic field. I just need to understand the difference, and how it can exist. What is happening with the copper to move it when I do not help or hinder it specifically? 
And why is it that anyone who is skeptical that anything exists there refuses to hold the copper right? Why do they hold it differently than I do? Is it because they have an agenda to disprove instead of approaching impartially? And why do people trying to prove an existence all of a sudden start talking spiritual bullshit instead of approaching it scientifically. Both sides drive me insane.
Why are people unable to witness something they don’t understand and approach it scientifically? Why am I struggling so hard to find scientific data on this process and it’s applications? Why is it absolutely hounded out of the scientific community? It is test able, I don’t know what it is or why it is. 
I have been told all sorts of shit about it. That it will find pipes, etc. I am not trying to deal with any previously existing information. I want to gather scientific data about how or why the copper in my hands moved of it’s own accord. Was there a magnetic field, or is there another factor at play that I have not addressed? 
Why is it that any mention of anything like this brings out the crackpots as well? All I am trying to do is get scientific information about something I have observed. Why is it that we aren’t allowed to address things like this?

ALRIGHT SCIENCE SIDE AND HARRY POTTER SIDE OF TUMBLR, I HAVE AN IMPORTANT COLAB FOR YOU
Backstory: my friends and I were discussing other things Voldemort could have made into horcruxes. One of the things we stated was a grain of sand so that it would get lost in the ocean and never found. I brought up the idea of, what if it somehow ended up in a piece of glass.
The questions are this:
Does the process of glass making destroy the piece of sand, or can you turn a piece of glass back into sand with magic?
Does the process turn the entire glass into the horcrux, or does it just remain where ever that ONE piece of sand is?
Depending on that answer, we ask, would you have to find that one spot and destroy it with the known ways, or just use them on the glass in general to destroy the horcrux?
To destroy a piece of glass that was a horcrux, could you use something doused with basilisk venom to destroy it, or would you HAVE to use fiendish fire to melt/destroy it?

Can someone who does generative linguistics tell me what "sentence" means in a sentence/S node on a linguistic tree? My education was much less syntactic and much more notional and I have no idea what the fuck that S means, and apparently it's important

You know that thing where sometimes twins can merge before they’re fully developed? And you know how animals can be albino (aka pure white/pinkish due to lack of melanin)? What if there was one twin who could produce the typical amount of melanin and one albino twin and they merged and came out half & half?

today while my actual serious business code has been running, I have been making many very incorrect visualizations of the orbits of the moons of Jupiter and this one is my current favorite wrong answer
