Terence Tao

So this, in principle, would create a blur for the actual Navier-Stokes.

And this is what I managed to accomplish for this average Navier-Stokes.

So it provided this sort of roadmap to solve the problem.

Now, this is...

a pipe dream because there are so many things that are missing for this to actually be a reality.

So I can't create these basic logic gates.

I don't have these special configurations of water.

I mean, there's candidates that include vortex rings that might possibly work, but also, you know, analog computing is really nasty compared to digital computing.

I mean, because there's always errors.

You have to do a lot of error correction.

along the way.

I don't know how to completely power down the big machine so that it doesn't interfere with the running of the smaller machine.

But everything in principle can happen.

It doesn't contradict any of the laws of physics.

So it's sort of evidence that this thing is possible.

There are other groups who are

now pursuing ways to make Navisworks blow up, which are nowhere near as ridiculously complicated as this.

They actually are pursuing much closer to the direct self-similar model, which can, it doesn't quite work as is, but there could be some simpler scheme than what I just described to make this work.

I mean, that's a big leap.

So there's precedent.
