ePublic Good (Public Good) Prediction comes true in New Zealand

Image
Over ten years ago, I wrote the article Is the Internet Making New Public Goods?  ePublic Goods.  In the article, I argued that, based on the decline and failure of the entertainment and news media industries, the internet is producing a new type of Public Goods, ePublic Goods. e for electronic or internet-based. Public Goods, along with Private, Club, and Commons (Common Pool) Goods, are a key  phenomenon  in economics.  Governments support public goods, and I predicted that this may happen with the media, too, someday, at the risk of democracy. If this is true, it is not a good thing at all.  Firms in these industries are not profiting, are failing due to internet sales losses, and have been downsizing. This is akin to examples of market failure, such as streetlights, fireworks displays, lighthouses, and others. The media and entertainment firms are failing for the same reasons as these normal Public Goods.  Non-rivalry is when no one is bothered (t...

Emergent Fractal Attractor Corresponds with Foundational Quantum Problems

Image
For over ten years, I have been developing a theory of quantum mechanics through the lens of fractals. I have found that the fractal demonstrates all aspects of quantum. My problem has been getting this down on paper and publishing it. Over 6 months, from late 2020 to early 2021, I worked on the following paper with my supervisor, but in the end, I threw it down, not at all happy with what I had achieved. I need to approach it differently: rather than treating it as an experiment, describe the fractal from a deductive point of view. I intend to do this when things have settled, and I have had a break from it all, but this is what I have achieved so far.  Keep in touch. I will let you know when I get started again.  Abstract The field of foundational quantum mechanics originated nearly one hundred years ago, yet it remains one of the greatest mysteries to physicists today. The experiment in this study tests whether the geometry of fractals, according to a simple isolated iterat...
