Re: [Vo]:Propellantless EM drive results
I will check the references; but, my problem with the concept is in the definition of a bit of information. A bit could be constituted by either an endothermic or an exothermic action depending on the method of storage. Let us not be information racists. Zero is datum also. :) >
Re: [Vo]:Propellantless EM drive results
I would note that the magnetocaloric effect seems to embody the same effect. Where the order and disorder of the magnetic domains is changed by magnetization, that is erasing data right?! So it is I guess a pretty robust effect as it is used to cool things already.

I'd never heard of that either, but a moment of Googling bought up these as the first 2 results: https://physicsworld.com/a/erasing-data-could-keep-quantum-computers-cool/#:~:text=A%20classical%20computer%20generates%20heat,unknown%20information%20in%20a%20system . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landauer%27s_principle On Fri, 25 Sep 2020 at 13:35, Terry Blanton wrote: > > > On Thu, Sep 24, 2020 at 1:21 PM Jones Beene wrote > >> Yes, it is long >> > > It's really not long.

Anyone got a citation on such? I think this comes from Landauer's principle but I do not have a citation handy. I will look for it tomorrow.

It's all based on the Casimir effect. I would be interested on more on the claim he made about increased heat in computer systems when information is deleted. He acted like that was a proven fact. Anyone got a citation on such? TIA
Re: [Vo]:Propellantless EM drive results
For anyone who loves science, the new McCulloch lecture on YT is one of the great unappreciated finds of all time ! Yes, it is long and yes he is not a great presenter ... BUT ... the content here is astounding. And it is fairly terse, given the breadth of the subject matter. McCulloch was brought up on Vortex by Mark Iverson over 4 years ago and again by Alain Sepeda and Jack Cole but it is just now sinking in to the collective conscious of vorticians thanks to this new video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=341Yk4k51uY=youtu.be Only a thousand views. Pity. You will thank yourself if you make it through to the end. With a few tweaks, this Quantum Inertia theory is almost guaranteed to get traction. It has so much to offer.
