infinite dimensions

A now-popular phrase in string theory and cosmology first coined by John Archibald Wheeler in the 1950's. Revived by Nicholas Meyler in the early 1980's (re-invented while a student at Princeton University enrolled in a Metaphysics of Time-Travel class), the term applies to both dimensions of infinite size (as opposed to particle physicists' idea of smaller higher dimensions as in Kaluza-Klein theory, standard string theory, etc.) and to an infinite number of dimensions. The innovation, if any, is that previously, 'infinite dimensions' had only been accepted in the realm of mathematics (Linear Algebra, Markovian Statistics, n-Dimensional Geometry, etc.), whereas Meyler proposed the obviousness of the infinite dimensional model being a reality, and suggested that they need not be 'small'.

While current theory is that there are 11 or 12 dimensions (string theory), Meyler advocates the infinite dimensional model based on the principle called "Ockham's Razor".

Stephen Hawking writes about infinite dimensions in an article in the collection "300 Years of Gravitation" (edited by Hawking and Israel, copyright 1987). John Wheeler's theory of infinite dimensions from the 1950's seemed to be about quantum-sized dimensions, and not large ones.

Infinity Ninja

1. A lemniscate (AKA the infinity sign, or a side-ways eight) that looks like a ninja. Once you see one you'll start seeing them everywhere.

2. The most powerful ninja in the world, one who can control time, destroy the universe, etc.
What's more, HE'S EVERYWHERE. Look at your keyboard sideways, between the 7 and the 9. He's there, looking at you.

8 ----> (8)X-< It's a ninja!

infosuicide

Disengaging from the Internet via the deletion of all your publicly available information.

Just yesterday, I took a screenshot of the title page of Dive Into HTML5 to include in a presentation as a highly recommended resource. Now it’s gone. That site, along with all the other “Dive Into…” sites and addictionis.org, is returning an HTTP “410 Gone” message.

Mark’s Github, Google+, Reddit, and Twitter accounts have all been deleted. And attempts to email him have been bounced back.

This is very reminiscent of Why the Lucky Stiff’s infosuicide, and it’s honestly shocking.
