Episode notes

i'm not talking about extra dimensions of space or the origin of the universe. I'm just talking about the ideas and physics that are fairly well established and we know. And mostly penrose talks about that also, but he does so in his own idiosyncratic way. So i think it is different a, hopefully it will be accessible to some people. Explaing the hamiltonian formulation of classical mechanics requires partial derivatives which involve funny symbols.

Welcome to the November 2021 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!
