Episode notes

The origin of the co ordinate system shouldn't in any way be associated with a an observer in any particular relationship. But for certain proximations, in certain circumstances, it made sense to act as if it were true. So we're more honest in generlativity. We just say, you have a coordinate system, and you also have maybe observers, and they have nothing necessarily do with each other. In particular, if there's multiple observers, theyre al o be moving in different places in the coordinate system.

Welcome to the March 2022 Ask Me Anything episode of Mindscape! These monthly excursions are funded by Patreon supporters (who are also the ones asking the questions). I take the large number of questions asked by Patreons, whittle them down to a more manageable size — based primarily on whether I have anything interesting to say about them, not whether the questions themselves are good — and sometimes group them together if they are about a similar topic. Enjoy!
