At the center of a black hole is it the same time as the moment of its formation?

There's no discussion, Ben. And you are a peasant.

Yes, and I'm saying that in the real world, these things matter. You have an idealised situation, which makes sense in theory, and it is correct. I never said it wasn't. Just things aren't so neat and tidy. Mass can and does tend to push the stars over the limit and we can detect it and see it happening as outside observers because it happens in large enough chunks.

Large enough chunks, Ben? As long as they're not point particles it doesn't matter to me whether they're a baseball or an asteroid.

I gotta get going. I am tutoring a student today.

You have succeeded in pissing me off enough to make me late!

You still haven't told me what text you learned your GR out of.

Sean Carroll mean anything to you?

Relax. It's only fizziks.

If you're talking about Spacetime&Geometry then yeah, that's a fine start (as long as you covered to the end) but it's still pretty elementary.

Now, if you've actually gone through that text you should be able to work through the actual mechanics for spherically symmetric accretion...

I would get a physics major if compsci weren't so much more interesting

[KrazyHorse]

Filthy liar.

[Kuciwalker]

True. I'd probably get a math major first.

That's strange. Seems pretty easy to disprove. Record a double-slit experiment on videotape, then watch it. I guess you could claim that the videotape itself doesn't change until you look at it, but it seems sort of a pointless distinction to me. Why elevate human memory over physical evidence?

I take a different tack. If only intelligent beings can cause wavefunction collapse, follow the implications for why the first wavefunction collapse occured and when?

@ thread.

Welcome back, KH. You weren't really back until this thread.

You're at the FMF in Ljubljana?
We've probably seen each other without knowing it.

Although I'm not there that often, especially in the Physics building.
