Doesn't matter. That is what is so exiting! Physics will need to be rewritten if we find it. And it will need to be rewritten if we don't find it. Something like the Higgs vector boson has already shown up at Fermilab, so I suspect we see it within a year.
Interesting. My sexual mind must shut off when I am thinking about Physics. It never even occurred to me.BTW Every time I see this thread in CC, I mistake the last word.
Right, although some elementary chemistry is applied physics.
Not really. It is its own discipline, and applies equally to all of them (biology is emergent from chemistry, etc.)
Hmmmm, I am not aware of this experiment. It is an interesting result though. I would expect that if the robot actions were indeed random, then one would expect entropy and diffusion to occurr. That they all end up in one corner could be a result of either hidden correlations in the code that governs the robots movements, or perhaps the random number generators have some sort of undetected attractor unbeknown to the programmers.
It is amazing to me, [and I am not even sure I believe it], that all the diversity we see is a result ultimately of subatomic scattering.
That is not the opinion of current science. In fact, some scientist think that unification is a dead end, a dreamed up luxury of Einstein's. Thing is, many [most, every ?] advance in the elementary sciences have come as the result of some unification of what was once thought to be different phenomena. I don't know what to believe, but if I were allowed wishful thinking, I would wish for unification.
