There are 2 "forces" - it have been so all the time.
This summer I solved how to measure the 2nd one, with modern devices.
These two "forces" only equalizes each other when the maximum possible DFA speed is reached (600 km/s) .
When you search for EFDA, you will understand more.
EDFA is an abbreviation for: Effective Dark Flow Acceleration.
In short, it means that as soon as there is motion opposite Dark Flow, RR will decrease and EDFA become active.
DFA is a constant factor. RR is speed dependent.
It is only EDFA that can be measured near arctic by certain solar and moon eclipses, not the full range of DFA.
To be exact; - it is EDFA that is the cause of the Allais Effect
Very short, - EDFA is a aspect of DFA.
So is the information above to be used by someone to DERIVE an equation/s to calculate things or do you already have an equation/s?

Dark Floss is the new colon cleanse. You swallow the first end and leave the other end dangling out of your mouth while you wait for the first end to come out your rear. Once it does you have friends grab both ends and “floss” your digestive tract like they were flossing teeth.

Best part, a single Dark Floss kit is good for 5 uses!

But wait! There’s more! Order now and you get a FREE anal bleaching kit and tube of rectal chap salve!

Trump could certainly use that so when he is busy putting his head through his anus it will at least be clean on the outside.

You are kidding, right? There is nothing here that makes it possible for a programmer (yes, I am also a programmer) to make a program that can calculate any of your values.

Try again.

Bjarne, I must insist that you share the links to the discussions of your theories in Cosmoquest Forum, the right place for the kind of theory you're developing. Basically, if you are there discussing something for a long time, your notions may be worth something. If you aren't there and you're just here instead involved in an endless chain of brainsores and verbal brawls, you are just an impersonator.

So provide the links to discussions of this topic in other internet venues.

Because you give nothing but vague words to go on. Did you really think that programs were made without clear algorithms, and exact functions?

Evidently you still have yet to understand that deceleration is just acceleration in the opposite direction. So all your " 4 set of date that interact which each other" are just acceleration.

Of.

Of course someone who claims the earth is accelerating can give a figure for that acceleration. Nobody could be so stupid as to make a claim like that without having a figure to hand.

A good programmer is also a good mathematician, he know how to solve a problem.

In a same way a women don’t need to write a book to here mechanic and you do not need to specify the wrong sound, - like brroooommm broom kliiik gong gong gong gomg gomg baaaaang

The mechanic know better, without to be guided, - or at least he should.
Just tell him to fix, he should know how to test and how to fix.

Bjarne..."The Theory of Relativity will begin to fall apart in 2016/2017"

Well then Bjarne, its now 2018, and still no sign of the Theory of Relativity beginning to fall apart....

So, what happened?

Of course, an astrophysicist and a theoretical physicist is also a good mathematician. It's be ridiculous to think you could involve yourself in either discipline without a decent standard of maths.

Sorry, but that sounds like the sort of "maybe next time" excuse that a doomsayer comes out with when his predicted Armageddon date passes, and the world didn't end!

And if all this data does is confirm Relativity yet again? Will you finally accept that you are wrong?

My IQ is too high even to think of the possibility that I'm probably could be wrong. The evidence is already overwhelming. I am totally convinced that I am right.

Most of the people on the planet are victims for brainwash
It’s so easy
Think about that George Bush was accused for being insane enough to have arranged 9.11 . More than 1 billion people was brainwashed to believe so
And the shows keep going on, - now the brainwash industry try to get the world to believe that also Trump is insane and will start 3 world war.

It is like Josef Goebel and Lenin once said, if you keep telling the same lies, it will become truth. – It’s the exact same with the prevailing theory of relativity.

So that's a no, then? Even if the data you're predicting will prove you right actually proves you wrong, you still won't concede?

There is no "brainwash industry", there are just people who choose to believe nonsense because it suits their prejudices and world view to do so.

There are even people who believe that the best tested scientific theory in history is wrong because they personally can't understand it, even though their own maths skills are so poor their alternative theory is gobbledegook.

It is indeed amazing what arrogant, wilfully ignorant people can fool themselves into believing.

Absolute nonsense. I have 30 years of experience as a programmer, and I never needed to know much about math. Graphics programs are the ones that need most math, but even here you can find everything needed in books.

Your ideas need entirely new functions that are against all known physics and common sense, and you expect the programmer to fill in the details for you?

Or Bjarne needs new physics to supplant Newtonian physics and explain why the Earth can stay in the same orbit, but move faster (which would be noticeable because of the shorter years).

thanks a lot for the link to the index, now I can't help wasting time to try it in random pages of the "immortal" Jabba thread (in the last page there are even enigmatic (to me) references to Einstein (vs Bohr or Wheeler-Dewitt?))

Your analogy is badly flawed. You’re not presenting a car in need of repair. You’re presenting a napkin with a few scribbles for an engine that’s considered impossible by most engineers and asking someone to build it for you.

This isn’t a matter of crunching through the math. You’re asking me to FINISH YOU GOD DAMN THEORY FOR YOU. It doesn’t matter how good I am at math. Your theory is incomplete. You have admitted you can’t calculate the absolute frame of reference and absolute rest position upon which your entire theory depends. How is me being good at math going to help me finish an incomplete theory with core theoretical constructs that are missing?

I’m not sure if you’re trolling, profoundly ignorant or remedial concepts, or just plain lazy, but I can guarantee your theory is going nowhere. You’re the only person on the planet who believes it and even YOU didn’t believe in it enough to actually finish it.

Technically automobiles (like many machines) have operational standards for how they are suppose to work. While comparing yourself to some mechanically un-inclined "woman" with a standard mass produced automobile is entirely sexist, it is equally entirely inaccurate. They are your notions Bjarne not some standardized mass produced construct. You are asking others to build your automobile (notions) for you based on some word salad drivel that evidently doesn't even have much meaning for you as otherwise you could present it more definitively than just "like brroooommm broom kliiik gong gong gong gomg gomg baaaaang ".

I don’t think he actually believes that. I think he’s just claiming that as a means of attacking his critics on a personal level. He’s using “No True Scotsman” against me. Nobody can magically fill in the galaxy sized holes in the bong water he calls a theory so he responds by accusing me of just not being good enough at math to do it. He imagines a magical programmer who can mystically do all the theoretical work he can’t be bothered to do and uses that as his frame of reference.

If he ACTUALLY believes what he’s saying then he’s a perpetual victim, easily fooled and exploited by con men and sales weasels who know how to say what a mark wants to hear, no matter how far it deviates from the truth.

Frankly, I’m starting to pity him. At this point he’s either a troll, or a perpetual victim. His ignorant nonsense about programmers reminds me of some of the lesser managers I’ve worked with who shelled out big bucks to consultants who delivered crap, then handed me the mess to fix. I sincerely hope whatever he does for a living it doesn’t involve technology decisions or interactions with consultants.

As if you all didn't understand Bjarne's self depiction as a trail blazer and all the hard work to make his incomplete and inconsistent ruminations work as menial tasks to be done by others.

This is how a success story works: mooch off your parents by saying your writing a book and then have a blog, a youtube account and participate in some forum with relaxed rules, so you can go on for ever with the mooching.

Evidently your assessment of the applicability of IQ, even a high one, is demonstrably wrong. In that IQ doesn't preclude the possibility or probability of being wrong or just thinking of such. Or to put it more succinctly for you, given your asserted high IQ, your lack of thinking "of the possibility that" you "probably could be wrong" simply confirms a lack of thinking.

Great, so another exemplification of minimal thought on your part.

Think about it yourself, others simply deluding themselves does nothing to support your own simple proclamations of you not simply deluding yourself.

And yet another great example of how the more you lie to yourself the more you might be inclined to just agree with just yourself.

None of your assertions actually counter the consideration that you are simply wrong but do assert you don't even consider that and would rather consider just about anything else including "It’s so easy" that "Most of the people on the planet are victims for brainwash".


As Richard P. Feynman once said...

"The first principle is that you must not fool yourself and you are the easiest person to fool."

If "Most of the people on the planet" can be so easily brainwashed by others then you must consider you brainwashing yourself as at least equally, if not more, plausible. That you don't or can't, as indicated by your first quoted assertion above, simply exemplifies that as most likely the case.

No. I recall an anecdote from the 1970's-- an STS problem was handed to the programmer, with insufficient instruction. His logic was "If 'K' is spring tension, then '-K" must be compression...".
The resulting program showed LEO achievement from a 30MPH left side wind gust.

The two scenarios are not even distantly related...

Amazing. Everything you said in those sentences is completely wrong.

If you’re so smart and so certain, why can’t you be bothered to finish your own theory?
