Excellent as usual. I remember coming across a youtube video of the battle between AC and DC. I believe Tesla was working with George Westinghouse on AC versus DC. Anyhow, the DC folks wanted to show the dangers of AC. So they wired an electric plate and put an elephant on it and electrocuted it. Very bizarre.
Yes correct. Westinghouse financed Tesla for a while then bought Tesla's patents for a fraction of their cost. With DC - Ediston et al - used to wire up AC currents to animals (lots of stray cats and dogs in New York City), and fry them with AC. Rather savage. Tesla used to perform in a top hat, running AC currents through his body and having the sparks emit from his hands. Must have been a peculiar sight. He also demonstrated the first direct energy weapon in New York. Using just sound vibrations, he demolitioned a large building in a matter of minutes.
Yes, carpenters have more of a grasp of science than the tensor maths man. I use tensor calculus in building some AI models. Without an absolute reference point (eg. a valid data number), they don't mean anything (can produce all sorts of 'correct' outputs, but without a context).
Does gravitational lensing exist? Space cannot be warped. The JWST is pretty clear - the universe is a flat disc. Warping space was done to save Einstein's equations.
GL is more word salads from the cult. Disproven some 40 years ago. They based it on quasars. Bangers: higher quasar redshifts = gravitational lensing. No.
Arp, Hoyle and others proved that quasars are aligned along the minor, not major, axis of the host galaxy. ('The Quasar Controversy Resolved' Arp).
Higher quasar redshifts is because they are newly formed with one galaxy producing another. Discussed in some posts here as well (Arp, Seeing Red, p. 103).
Quasar formation is observed with ‘twins’ being formed on the opposite sides of the parent galaxy. If White Holes exist and if they eject quasars, most of cosmological theory will need a thorough rewrite.

Great!
There is a joke to be discovered here, something about Einstotle building or fixing a car and how it goes afterwards. The brilliant engineer! 😂

Yes, it’s amazing that science nurtures this branch which is so abstract and unpractical, with no way to prove those things hands on
Isn't gravitational lensing an example of the warping of space ?

GL is not real of course.
