A Series of Benign Statements

The Man, the Myth ...

Dacoda Bizmark Nelson is a 33–34 year old graduate of The College of New Jersey in Ewing, NJ. His B.Sc. was awarded for the study of physics. Dacoda edits Wikipedia in his somewhat tenuous free time because it's something fun to do and it's a great way to give back to a project that has been such an indispensable source of information over the years.

His favorite equation is:

$R_{\mu \nu }-{1 \over 2}g_{\mu \nu }\,R+g_{\mu \nu }\Lambda ={8\pi G \over c^{4}}T_{\mu \nu }$

because not only is it æsthetically pleasing, but it's also pretty useful. Aside from describing a four-dimensional 'fluid' analogizing the motion of the universe on a grand scale, it reduces in the weak-field limit to a simple expression of the Newtonian gravitational potential and is -- more importantly -- a pretty good description of the flow of traffic on a highway populated with bad drivers.

His second favorite equation is actually a collection of expressions put together by some guy named Maxwell.

A Thing Which Absolutely Nobody Asked For

You're probably curious as to what those final equations look like so here they are, in differential and integral form, so please enjoy yourself; Nelson knows he always does.

Name	Differential form	Integral form
Gauss's law	$\nabla \cdot \mathbf {E} ={\frac {\rho }{\varepsilon _{0}}}$	$\int \!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\;\!\;\!\subset \;\!\;\!\!\;\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\int _{\partial V}\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\;\;\;\;\!\!\supset \mathbf {E} \;\cdot \mathrm {d} \mathbf {A} ={\frac {Q(V)}{\varepsilon _{0}}}$
Gauss's law for magnetism	$\nabla \cdot \mathbf {B} =0$	$\int \!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\;\!\;\!\subset \;\!\;\!\!\;\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\int _{\partial V}\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\;\;\;\;\!\!\supset \mathbf {B} \;\cdot \mathrm {d} \mathbf {A} =0$
Maxwell–Faraday equation (Faraday's law of induction)	$\nabla \times \mathbf {E} =-{\frac {\partial \mathbf {B} }{\partial t}}$	$\oint _{\partial S}\mathbf {E} \cdot \mathrm {d} \mathbf {l} =-{\frac {\partial \Phi _{B,S}}{\partial t}}$
Ampère's circuital law (with Maxwell's correction)	$\nabla \times \mathbf {B} =\mu _{0}\mathbf {J} +\mu _{0}\varepsilon _{0}{\frac {\partial \mathbf {E} }{\partial t}}\$	$\oint _{\partial S}\mathbf {B} \cdot \mathrm {d} \mathbf {l} =\mu _{0}I_{S}+\mu _{0}\varepsilon _{0}{\frac {\partial \Phi _{E,S}}{\partial t}}$

Personal Web Search Engine

Recent Edit: After moving back to the West Coast (against his will), Nelson has gotten a lot of new networking hardware and a new ISP which likes to make opening ports to public addresses really difficult, so the server is down. He apologizes to those one or two people who connected over the last year but he hopes to get it back up when he has the time.

Nelson, being slightly odd and having a knowledge of computer technology and open-source projects that toes the line between idiosyncratic and downright insane, stumbled across an application called YaCy and got moderately excited. He immediately installed the wonderful application and has since been indexing the web and sharing that index with thousands of other users doing the same thing across the world.

If you're interested, you can click the following link or go to (websearch.twilightparadox.com). You'll be routed through to his home network briefly to load the search portal's webpage where you can put in a search for anything - just like you'd do with Google, Bing, Yahoo, Ask, or any other search engine. His computer will then go ahead and search its knowledge of the internet for your request and ask that other computers running YaCy do the same. Once it's built up a reasonable number of responses (usually less than 1 second) you'll get back a list of webpages that his computer (and the YaCy collective) think are relevant to your search terms.

He's probably more excited about running the application and the small web server than he really ought to be but c'est la vie. Not to mention the fact that his ISP is doing just about everything in its power to make hosting the server in a reliable manner virtually impossible.
