Manson's law of avoidance

Manson's law of avoidance says that, the more something threatens your identity, the more you will avoid it and I (Manson) bring this up in terms of what are the pieces of information that we protect ourselves from because ultimately, like grasping onto some sense of certainty, it's a means of protecting our ego from perceived threats and so, Manson's law basically says that, the more threatening something is, the more we will become certain in things that will help us avoid dealing with that truth.
An extension of Manson's law of avoidance is that, we should define ourselves as loosely and ambiguously as possible because the less defined ourself is, the less we need to cling to defense mechanisms or faulty ideas to protect ourselves. This is fundamentally a Buddhist idea, the idea of no self, if there is no such thing as self, then there's nothing to protect and there's nothing that you need to be certain about in the first place.

Boyle's Law

In contrast to others definitions of this, the actual Boyle's law, commonly referred to as the Boyle-Mariotte Law (Mariotte's law in France, describes the relationship between pressure and volume of a confined gas.

The equation is usually written as PV = k where pressure multiplied by volume equals some constant k.

The law in simplest terms states that when the temperature of a given mass of confined gas is constant, the product of its pressure and volume is also constant.

If boyle's law is comparing the same substance under two different sets of conditions, the law can be expressed as P1V1 (1 being subscript), = P2V2 (2 being subscript). This means that as volume increases, the pressure fo a gas decreases proportionally, and vice versa.

Boyle's law can be applied, and is applied to divers. Such that if a diver takes a lung full of air while they are underwater, that air will expand in his lungs as he rises to the surface. If the diver holds his breath, or ascends too rapidly, such as comparable to a cork being opened in a quick motion, the expanding air can thereforth rupture his lungs. This is reason number one why exploring the ocean can be dangerous, save whatever creatures co-exist in the deep blue. This law can be used in tandem with Charles' Law, Gay-Lussac's Law, Henry's Law, and Dalton's law.

Boyle's Law, Charles's Law, and Gay-Lussac's law form what is known as the Combined Gas Law, or the General Gas Equation.
Person 1 to a diver: "Remember Boyle's Law. Whatever you do when surfacing, DO NOT rise quickly. Take your time."
