That’s your wish? It’s really negative.
To cosmic shreds, I say!

Mine would be to remove a chromossome from evangelicals lol

one chromosome per person seems easy to recover from

Yeah, except for Chromosomes Georg. He was an outlier and should not have been counted.

Personally I’d add chromosomes to them, let’s see what happens when you add 50 extra chromosomes to a person.

Lol just an x chromosome lol. Don’t worry about the men

Why not change the measure of the nuclear efficiency of fusion from hydrogen to helium, to be from 0.007 into 0.006?

Kinda hard when there’s only one electron in the universe.

I want one random atom to be one plank unit shifted to the left at the beginning of the universe.

Double all constants
pressanykeynow@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Ok, it’s not 2PiR now, but just PiR. Given how often 2Pi is used some mathematicians will actually be happy. Would be a mess with other constants though.

I was talking more about physical constants, like magnetism, gravity, plank, etc. But sure, mathematical ones work, too. Probably even worse than physical constants doubling, since the doubling of mathematical ones would imply the corruption of reality itself.
KairuByte@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 months ago
Constants are known at compile time, and therefore are more performant as they don’t need to be reasoned about at runtime.
These days it’s not much of a performance boost but never a bad idea to use constants where appropriate.

I’d go with making each next proton in the universe an anti proton
naeap@sopuli.xyz 2 months ago
Maybe that’s already the case, just out of our event horizon
There is, afaik, no explanation why there is more matter than anti matter, so maybe we just don’t see it
Like, dark side of the universe or something ;-)

This is the baryon asymmetry problem, and indeed, one of the proposed solutions is an “anti-universe” that flows backwards in time. The theory goes that all the antimatter travelled backwards in time while matter travelled forward from the Big Bang, creating a mirror anti-universe. However, there has been experimental evidence against this theory, as antiparticles seem to move forward in time, just like their matter counterparts.
There are a bunch more theories on how matter dominated the universe, like electroweak baryogenesis and leptopgenesis! Those are a bit more complicated though and are difficult to explain in an internet comment.
victorz@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Imma go ahead and postulate that beyond the observable universe is a wall of anti matter, that keeps eating our universe’s matter and neutralizing it.
Prove me wrong! (Don’t.)

I thought Madam Wu’s experiment provided a starting point for explaining why the universe exists despite its best efforts to annihilate itself. Disclaimer, I have passing interest in physics but I have no formal education on any of it.

wishes are basically reality warping.
Soup@lemmy.world 2 months ago
If the one-electron theory is true you could just double its charge and see what happens. Would only need to do it in one place for it to be everywhere.

First wish was to repeal Bernoulli’s principle
The second was doubling the mass of a photon
DevDave@piefed.social 2 months ago
What would that do to a star’s interior?
Fermion@feddit.nl 2 months ago
2 * 0 = 0
Doubling the mass of photons is no change.
Repealing Bournoulli’s principle requires changing how kinetic collisions of molecules translates into bulk measurables like pressure and density. There’s no way to predict what that does without first specifying more about what changes are made.
ContriteErudite@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Best case? atoms shrink slightly and some changes to how chemistry works
Realistic case? The change in nuclear binding energies renders protons unstable, making many elements unstable or radioactive. All matter suddenly becomes much heavier, changing the gravity and internal pressures and disrupting stellar and planetary structures. Fusion reactions depend on precise mass differences between particles, which may alter how stars generate energy, or completely prevent them from forming altogether. Since proton mass is tied to the strong nuclear force, it will fundamentally alter physics, and it’s likely that protons will decay into neutrons, preventing atoms from existing at all.
The first wish would affect how fluids act under pressure, including how our blood would move throughout our bodies. Depending on the exact effects, the wisher may not even get the chance to make the second wish because their blood would either stop moving, or they would drop to ground as every capillary in their body ruptures causing an immediate loss of blood pressure, quickly followed by loss of consciousness and then death.
IF they live long enough to make the second wish, then they probably wouldn’t live long enough to make the third.

Who says pi has to be a constant at all?
mic_check_one_two@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 months ago
Pi can be equal to whatever you want, as long as you’re using a number base that accounts for it. Pi is only an irrational number because base-10 is a rational base. You could create a number base that sets pi equal to 1, if you wanted.
