🤦♂️ Ah, the profound wisdom of "Hackerbrief" with its groundbreaking approach to content: nothingness! Apparently, they've mastered the art of summarizing by saying absolutely NOTHING. 🎯 Maybe the real hack is getting people to read a blank page. 📰💨

Ah, the internet: where new levels of #productivity are reached by infinitely measuring how far a thumb can go into #existential #voids. 📱🌀 A "groundbreaking" #experiment in proving, once again, that humans are willing to scroll into #endless #nothingness just because they can. Bravo! 👏

“I love to talk about nothing. It’s the only thing I know anything about.”*…
No matter how hard you try to empty a box, zero-point energy remains (image source)Try as they might, scientists can’t truly rid a space or an object of its energy. But as George Musser reports, what “zero-point energy” really means is up for interpretation…
Suppose you want to empty a box. Really, truly empty it. You remove all its visible contents, pump out any gases, and — applying some science-fiction technology — evacuate any unseeable material such as dark matter. According to quantum mechanics, what’s left inside?
It sounds like a trick question. And in quantum mechanics, you know to expect a trick answer. Not only is the box still filled with energy, but all your efforts to empty it have barely put a dent in the amount.
This unavoidable residue is known as ground-state energy, or zero-point energy. It comes in two basic forms: The one in the box is associated with fields, such as the electromagnetic field, and the other is associated with discrete objects, such as atoms and molecules. You may dampen a field’s vibrations, but you cannot eliminate every trace of its presence. And atoms and molecules retain energy even if they’re cooled arbitrarily close to absolute zero. In both cases, the underlying physics is the same.
Zero-point energy is characteristic of any material structure or object that is at least partly confined, such as an atom held by electric fields in a molecule. The situation is like that of a ball that has settled at the bottom of a valley. The total energy of the ball consists of its potential energy (related to position) plus its kinetic energy (related to motion). To zero out both components, you would have to give a precise value to both the object’s position and its velocity, something forbidden by the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.
What the existence of zero-point energy tells you at a deeper level depends ultimately on which interpretation of quantum mechanics you adopt. The only noncontentious thing you can say is that, if you situate a bunch of particles in their lowest energy state and measure their positions or velocities, you will observe a spread of values. Despite being drained of energy, the particles will look as if they’ve been jiggling. In some interpretations of quantum mechanics, they really have been. But in others, the appearance of motion is a misleading holdover from classical physics, and there is no intuitive way to picture what’s happening…
More on the development of our understanding of “zero-point energy” and on the questions that remain: “In Quantum Mechanics, Nothingness Is the Potential To Be Anything,” from @georgemusser.com in @quantamagazine.bsky.social.

As we noodle on nought, we might spare a thought for Kurt Gödel; he died on this date in 1978. A mathematician, logician, and author of Gödel’s proof. He is best known for his proof of Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorems (in 1931). He proved fundamental that in any axiomatic mathematical system there are propositions that cannot be proved or disproved within the axioms of the system. In particular, the consistency of the axioms cannot be proved… thus ending a hundred years of attempts to establish axioms to put the whole of mathematics on an axiomatic basis. [See here for a consideration of what his finding might mean for moral philosophy…]

No idea if this is an #ActuallyAutistic thing or just being #human but…
I find I do best when I have *lots* of time and space for #nothingness. Doing nothing. Being nothing. It helps me integrate everything. Big, small, good, bad. Space to make sense, emerge clarity, find resilience.
It's not optional. I don't think it's optional for any of us but our brutal culture would scaremonger us otherwise. I wonder what would happen if more of us pushed back, slowed down and refuse to move faster.

That's right! Plus, we scientifically analyse #EmptySpace, disappearing texts and artworks, and the erasure of the self in #death.

Quote of the day, 30 January: St. Mary Magdalene de’ Pazzi
God refuses to unite Himself to that soul which refuses to acknowledge its own nothingness, because, being in Himself and of Himself glorious, and not being in need of anyone, if he united Himself to a soul so unjust and blind, He would seem to be in need of this soul rather than to be what He is in Himself, happy.
As in the creation of the universe, nothingness preceded (if that which is not can be said to precede) all that the Creator made in this world, and the union He made of Himself, giving the being and the participation of Himself to all creatures, according to the capacity and the nature of each, whereby every creature becomes united with and dependent on God; so, in order to accomplish this other union with the soul and receive a world of graces, this annihilation must be found in the soul.
As in the creation (by grace) of the microcosm which is the reasonable creature, and in the union of the Word with the humanity, He wanted an anterior annihilation in her who was to be His Mother. Ecce ancilla Domini — “Behold the handmaid of the Lord” (Lk 1:38); that by this act she might become more worthy and capable of a glory and greatness so wonderful that neither she nor any blessed spirit or mere creature can fully comprehend it (the dignity of such a Mother being an infinite grace); so, in order that the Divine Word may unite with the soul, this annihilation must precede, and, by means of it or this being done, God comes to do wonderful things in that soul, and of it can be said: Fecit mihi magna qui potens est; quia respexit humilitatem ancillae (Lk 1:49, 48).
But even this annihilation the soul does not know in itself; but, by annihilating itself, it attains to the greatness of God, Who unites Himself to the soul possessed of such annihilation. This soul then acknowledges God as glorious in Himself, attributing to Him all honor and glory, and not to itself.
Hence God Himself takes such pleasure in this soul that He remains continually united to it. By means of this union, this soul partakes as far as is possible (remaining in its being as to the nature) of the divine perfections.
Saint Mary Magdalene de’ Pazzi
Chapter 38 (excerpt)
Note: St. Mary Magdalene de’ Pazzi entered the Carmel of St. Mary of the Angels and on 30 January 1583 she received the Carmelite habit and the name of Sister Mary Magdalene.

Featured image: The Ecstasy of St Mary Magdalene de’ Pazzi is an oil on canvas painting attributed to the Italian painter Alessandro Rosi (1627–1697).

Sometimes I'll receive a response to an issue and just cease functioning for a bit. Too many opposing thoughts and emotions at once canceling each other out. A complete mental and emotional short-circuit, if you will.
I don't think the human mind is designed to process shock, despair, rage, and exasperation simultaneously. Is there a proper term for this phenomenon?

#Nobel #Physicist Roger Penrose (b. 1931): #DarkMatter doesn't exist & #Time has no #beginning
"The #BigBang theory proposes that the #universe originated from #nothingness, marking its beginning. Before this event, there was no time or space. However, what if I told you that time doesn't actually exist and that the Big Bang theory could be incorrect?" (Lots of good #visuals.)

“If there is anything except Nothing, it must exist within this Boundless Light; within this Space; within this inconceivable Nothingness, which cannot exist as Nothing-ness, but has to be conceived of as a Nothingness composed of the annihilation of two imaginary opposites. Thus appears The Point, which has ‘neither parts nor magnitude, but only position’.”
