I submitted my book to a publisher.
Does this mean it is more real?
I don't think so but I am still so very happy I have enough together to actually accomplish this part!
I hope this leads to more celebrating!

For those following along I have done it.
I have unified Quantum Mechanics, General Relativity, Forces, Light, Biology, and cognition all into one unified theory.
T.A.I.R.I.D.
Time and Information Relative in Dimension.

I could use some peer review 😁🔬🔭🧪🌌🧠🧬🧫🦠

The more I think about those results, the more I feel a follow up survey would be interesting. Some ppl already pointed out it's just a question of time that orange turns blue. #AcedemicSky #ScientificPublishing #ArtificialIntelligence #OverlyHonestEditor 1/

I'll try once more.
Can I find a single physicist, cosmologist, evolutionary biologist, or neuroscientist?
It's just I think I have figured out how all systems evolve, but I'm not in academia at all and I need help finding peers to review my work.

What I liked, beyond the research itself, is that the author was one of the few scientists at this conference who used inclusive pictures of non-white infants. Unfortunately, this is still more of an exception than a rule #dei #acedemicsky

currently fighting with a VPN so I can do my homework. one thing I've learned in school is that it sets you up for the real world of IT. nothing works immediately and the instructions are wrong. and sometimes they're in german.

This review paper is my first published paper, summarising the role of angiogenesis in pathogenic infections. After years, I am delighted that it is starting to gain traction and citations.
