The theories (and concepts) I know about science
During my secondary school, I studied the science subjects: physics, chemistry, and biology.
The main theory I know about the physics is: Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be transformed. Then I asked, where does energy come from? Is it existed in the beginning?
Then, about the chemistry, which studies about the matter. From this subject, I know an atom consists of proton, neutron, and electron. We can determine the element based on the number of protons. Then I asked, what determines the number of protons? There should be some attractive force, but where does this attractive force come from?
Beyond the time and space
We are living in a world with 3-dimensional space: width, height, and length. A point is zero dimension; a line is one dimension with length property; a rectangle is two dimensions with width and height properties; a cube is 3D with width, height, and length properties.
So, how is the fourth dimension? Normally, we will use time for fourth dimension. Why?
Now, if there is a point, with coordinate (x,y). Since it is a point, there is no length, width, or height, thus it is zero dimension. If the point is moving according to axis-y gradually with constant speed, and we record the point with time (t), then we plot the point into a graph, it will become a line as the right side of the image above. Therefore, zero dimension becomes one dimension.
Creativity and computer
I am not a creative person. But doing programming lets me think how to become a creative person.
We can create a computer with integrating AI (Artificial Intelligence). A low level AI computer will produce a simple pattern, which can be easily learnt by human. A higher level AI will have a more complex pattern. Whatever it is, there is a pattern in an AI. This is because the pattern is programmed by the programmer.
Teleportation
After reading an article, “How Teleportation Will Work”, I found that it is very interesting. Since I often dream that I have the teleportation ability.
From the article, it says that a photon is possible to be teleported. But the teleportation works by creating a replica of the original photon. After the replica is created, the original photon will no longer existed. That means, the information can be teleported from one portal to another portal.
Diencephalon assumption
According to Shichida Makoto (七田真), adults’ brain wave is different from children’s brain wave [Click here to read more (chinese)]. That is why adult cannot use diencephalon to perceive like a child.
The followings are my opinions and assumptions.
1. When we were young, we might use the diencephalon (middle brain) to perceive. However, because most of the time, we are using the basic five sensory systems. Later by later, we didn’t use the diencephalon to sense or to perceive. Then we forgot how to use it anymore, or the diencephalon cannot function like before because it is weaker and weaker. Just like if we never do the physical exercise, our body becomes weak.
Diencephalon 間腦
沒有聽過,都不知道;沒有看到,都不相信。
If I never heard it, I don’t know; if I never see it, I don’t believe.
我的親戚的小孩,上了個課程。那個課程可以開發間腦(Diencephalon)。開發了之後有什麽用?蒙上眼睛,還能“看見”。
我們用她做了示範:把她的眼睛蒙上。然後,把許多藍色和紅色的小球放在個盒子里。然後叫她把紅色的拿出來。她都拿了出來。不止如此。我們還拿了小孩的書,有圖案和英文名稱的書,隨便翻了翻,擺在她面前,她摸了摸,都可以知道是什麽圖案,什麽顏色(眼睛還是蒙著的)。
My relative’s child, attended a course. That course can help the children to open their “diencephalon” (middle brain, or inter brain). Why open it? When the children are blindfolded, they still can “see”.
We asked the girl to demonstrate the ability: we blindfolded her. Then, put a lot of blue and read small balls inside a box. Then we asked her to take out all red balls. She could take them out. Not only that, we used a children book, which contains a lot of picture with english name, and randomly opened a page, put in front of her, she touched, and she knew what is the picture, even the colour. She was still blindfolded.
Mysterious theories

Yes, so interesting… I like the theory about Mayan calendar. Because Mayan calendar can count from about 10 thousand years BC, but the final years is 2012 AD (or CE, common era). So weird.
Leonardo da Vinci
Leonardo da Vinci really a great artist.

Leap year
Do you know leap year? There are 366 days in leap year. And when is leap year? Every 4 years, there is a leap year, this was what I learnt from school. And counting leap year, just divide current year by 4, right?
If so, then is 1900 a leap year? NO…
To get even closer to the actual number, every 100 years is not a leap year, but every 400 years is a leap year. Putting all of these rules together, you can see that a year is a leap year not only if it is divisible by 4 – it also has to be divisible by 400 if it is a centurial year. So 1700, 1800 and 1900 were not leap years, but 2000 was. That brings the average length of the year to 365.2425 days, which is even closer to the actual number.

The 5th category of taste perception
About the taste, chinese always use 4 words to describe: sour, sweet, bitter and hot (or spicy). However, we studied science in our school, there are 4 categories: Sour, sweet, bitter and salty.
Then, do you heard about “umami”? That is new for me. That is the 5th category of taste perception. That is “meaty taste”, or in chinese: 鲜味.
