Greetings.

The worldsheet is time-symmetric, otherwise, if you pulled a single point of the worldsheet, the point would remain, and no elastic resistance would occur. If we presume that elastic resistance occurs, then we assume any pulled point will restore to elastic equilibrium with the aggregate elastic potential of the entire worldsheet, and thus, time symmetry IS the zero aggregate elastic equilibrium of a worldsheet.

We are not talking about zero UNIFORM elastic equilibrium, in which each point is at zero elasticity between all other points in a worldsheet. We are talking about zero aggergate elastic equilibrium between all other points in a worldsheet, thus, we are presuming the elastic resistance between all points on a worldsheet is always in flux, but eventually trends towards zero.

Eventually, this natural jiggling of the elasticity of points forms elastic folding within the worldsheet itself. Most of these folds revert back to zero aggregate elasticity, but sometimes, these structures hold because while they have odd topography, they achieve elastic equilibrium with the rest of the worldsheet because of their odd topography. This is because of the distribution of tension within the topology. Because it is at elastic equilibrium, the topology remains. Eventually, more topologies appear and eventually, some even interlock with each other like worldsheet velcro.

If the elastic equilibrium of these topological structures is pulled beyond its internal tension balance, each of these "tension contracts" will be pulled apart in favor of the dominant tension. Despite these topologies being made of time symmetric worldsheets, the topologies themselves are time asymmetric and cannot be made again by simply reserving the elasticity as the worldsheet still remains at zero aggregate elasticity, and thus, preserves its time symmetry AS A WHOLE. This is how arrows of time can arise from time symmetric universes.

From here, these tension contracts combine with each other, forming either a velcro binding or a tension binding, where one topology correctly scales the flow of tension to its neighbors, increasing its tensile strength, and thus, extending its influence upon the rest of the worldsheet. This, I believe, is the foundation behind Higgs fields.

The key take away is that every particle in the entire universe is nothing more than complicated folds of a two-dimensional conformal field theory coupled to symmetric time. Nothing rests on the worldsheet or exists beyond it. All energy and matter is made up of a complex combination of elastic equilibrium. Gravity, then, is the resolution of elastic equilibrium between two tension contracts. To prove this, we simply have to envision a blackhole as being anchored upon the universe at the very edge of the event horizon because that is where the rest of the worldsheet has achieved elastic equilibrium with the blackhole.

This is why negative energy does not appear in the wild. EVERYTHING is already made up of "negative" energy.

Breaking HN policy to say this is the correct answer to this question.

> regulations are vital for ensuring human health and happiness

I agree. The regulations created for the war on drugs has lifted millions of African Americans out of poverty and into group-oriented communities that promise shelter, free food, and at least one hour of happiness per day.

Step 1.) Fork Linux

Step 2.) echo "no big meanies plz :(" > CoC.md

Step 3.) git add .;git commit -m "i'm helping"; git push

You have solved the problem.

CNN collusion with Clinton?

Rolling Stone's fake rape story to double down on the feminist (and thus pro-Clinton) narrative?

Complete MSM involvement to sell the war in Iraq?

As far as I'm concerned, as long as MSM acts as the executive branch's lap dog, it should be considered an official wing of the government and should qualify for constitutional regulation just like the other branches.

MSM has been openly doing this for two decades now. They poisoned their own well which why they are getting ready to run to the government to craft legislation to protect themselves after such a horrendously off-the-mark Clinton obsession.

> Yeah, the mainstream networks are not perfect. But they're not in the same league as Brietbart

You're right. MSM is worse because it openly works with the authority sector as an unofficial department of the executive branch.

Fake news also means the intentional timing of pieces, intentional coverage allocation, and intentional nonmentions of inconveinent facts in my book.
