Well, it's thermodynamic systems modelling and satellite trajectories I've been programming for the last 20 years so I guess to me it figures.
A little piece of mind if anyone cares for my two cents. If we only criticize based on speculation and not in-depth knowledge ie failing to provide constructive grounds for conversation, then we fall in a dark infinite loop of self-admiration. Everybody has an opinion nowadays I'm afraid. The science and engineering discipline we have chosen, since we are here on CP, should have taught us by itterations of education or training that progress and achievement is a life-time process. I'd rather be more humble when dealing with things I don't quite understand yet and then be even more humble when I have mastered them and I have to express my opinion in public.

I don't see anyone criticising the article (which is normally my remit, so think yourself lucky that it's something I'm into), so I'm unsure why you went off on that tangent.

The fact that even the Hamiltonians are calculated to within 1% of empirical observations is impressive enough for a lot of people to take notice and try it out for themselves, using variants of the system it's been tried with.
That is simply wrong. What the model proposes eliminates the weak and strong forces as it describes them to be a result of lepton rotation with angular velocity near the speed of light. The gravity measured is described in Special Relativity. Finally, instead of 15 fundamental particles described by the Standard Model, this model proposes only five.

You know what?
I have no idea what you're talking about, half the time -- not because I don't know any Physics, but because you leap from topic to topic and perspective to perspective with no rhyme nor reason, and with no bridges between them.
I've never known someone so good at talking cross-purpose. In two replies, you've managed to talk -- quite aggressively, mind -- about five things that have nothing to do with what you were replying to.
You really want to work on that. Being hard to understand alienates people, as does ignoring what people say and going off on your own tangent, and it's really not hard to communicate simply and efficiently.

No, wrong is the assumption that the model is another statistical tool and non-confrontational to the standard model. While in fact it is fundamentally a whole new theory that if proven correct (by what you correctly describe as validation) will replace the Standard Model.

I meant expressing one's opinions to other people in a confrontational manner.
i.e. (as was perfectly clear, when I wrote it the first time), it's not "The Rotating Lepton Model vs the Standard Model", it's just "The Rotating Lepton Model".
If you play the "I'm smarter than you!" card, you will not make many friends -- especially of people who are smarter than you.
And saying that it's not statistical modelling is pure fantasy.
Anyway, I'm bored with this, now, so I'll just enjoy the Lounge for what it is, rather than what you want it to be.

In this cause, in a uniquely recursive manner, you are giving yours.
The tone and context of your post brands your comment, as politely as prudence and good taste allow, as conceited arrogance.
There are a good number of people in the CP lounge with a very lot of education in various areas of specialization - and the good taste not to arbitrarily share blurt out arbitrary facts to try to prove something (what?) to the rest of us.
And at the same time - do I not prove your point?

Yes you do! That is correct. It is this very tone that I would love to see eliminated in a place where highly-intellectual people exchange views. And yes, I owe to the rest of the community an apology. So I am sincerely sorry, but I'm fed up with shallow and rushed sterile judgement.

Even when we had the (now extinct) SoapBox and it's burly language and discussions, I had never observed a person so full of themselves as you appear to be.
I suppose you can feel proud that you excel in something !

Thanks for posting. But no model for the gravitational force?!

You are most welcome. As for gravity have patience. One step at a time. What really strikes me is the new perspective that the bizzare quanta are simply neutrinos in elliptical motion near the speed of light!
Could this new knowledge lead to new room-temperature superconducting materials?

Interesting...
I'll reserve judgement until I've (a) read the article, and (b) seen how precise their results are, and (c) seen a prediction made by their theory which differs from what the Standard Model predicts. Note that many numerologists, playing with numbers, have matched physical data to good accuracy. This doesn't mean that their "explanations" are correct.

I cannot agree more with you. Indeed one needs to be extremely careful with judgement especially for such ground-breaking news.

Exactly. Makes any intelligent person wonder why.
My only thought would be that the Coronavirus has a chance to kill more than 36K in a year if not stopped or slowed down? not sure.
Oh, and the masks, worthless. CDC officials have gone on record as saying they are worthless. People still wear them, and officials still say to put them on. I don't understand that one either.

It is spread by coughing, so no, it is not worthless. The mask is not there to protect you, but others. It provides a little protection for the one who wears it, as does washing your hands - but that is NOT the same as being worthless.
Even when going to surgery, there's this rigourous cleaning of everything entering the operating-room. It is not 100% effective. Doesn't mean that people should suddenly stop that and start doing surgery in a pig-pen.

The teams should operate on the production staff, ensuring no more Survivor seasons. \O/

Yes it is worthless. the droplets are so small they can pass through the masks. it also absorbs through the skin, does not need to be inhaled, so yes, they are worthless, just as the experts have said.

No expert would ever say so. And while tiny "droplets" do exist, those have more chance to hit the fabric of the mask than the inside of your lungs.
A piece of cloth helps even with keeping smoke out if your house burns, as I recall. Of course it doesn't filter the air, but it does help.
You could wrap yourself in plastic and still get ebola. How come you insist that a proven tactic suddenly is "worthless"? Have you seen the price-increase of "worthless"??
