i wrote this. thoughts?

I think it's a little preposterous to conjecture that the inverse of the fine structure constant is "governed" by the expression N^2+C^2 + ((1+sqrt(5))/2)^(N-C) with N=11 and C=4. You can probably find hundreds more approximations by other arbitrary formula of similar complexity, all lacking in explanatory power of why the formula should look like that.

[rikeanimer]

is the number accurate or not? and minimal aperiodic tilings of the infinite plane are not uninteresting, they are related to turing completeness. whatever. how accurate is it? you tell me.

[rikeanimer]

find one. I dare you.

None so far, because I have no google account to login with. Which seems to be required?

Maybe change that setting somewhere, to public, or so?

[rikeanimer]

think i just fixed. made public like you suggested. face palm.

> thoughts?

I have a few:

What's the "Hypothetical Institute of Mathematical Physics"?

What does 'a reflection of the total phase space or ”complexity weight” of the minimal aperiodic vacuum.' mean?

phi^-7 !~= 0.035998811... it's ~= 0.0344418537...

Section 3.2 is just gobbledegook.

You probably need to get a better bot but it was a fun read. Thanks.

sigh. your probably into the Copenhagen interpretation. buhbye.
