Outside the Blur

Internet Protocol IPv6 has appeared in 1998 as Faqs.org states.

It will soon replace IPv4 because slowly but surely we are out of IP addresses.

The IPv4 architecture can sustain 2^32 IP addresses. This means 4.3 Billions of IP Addresses which in 2 years from now on they will be all addressed. No more addresses, no more computer networks.

An IPv4 address has 32 bits. This means you can group 8 bits in a 4 numbers from 0 to 255 like :

129.232.45.1

The IPv6 architecture which has 128 bits or 2^128 IP addresses can sustain 3.4*10^38 IP addresses. This is an enormous number comparable to the number of atoms in the Universe.

A typical address will have 8 hexadecimal numbers with 4 digits like :
2901:0db8:8fa3:0000:0020:8a2e:0370:7134

One reason that I am not agreeing with IPv6 is that it is not very efficient for a system administrator or for a network engineer to use and handle. This IP address ca be confused with a language code in Hexa or something else. It’s not usable, it’s not easy to take.

What if you should follow some traffic, make some traceroute and so on on this IPv6 address?

The second reason  is that it’s to much waste of traffic and of numbers. Practically from 2^32 it has extended to 2^128 IP addresses much much more that you’ll ever need.

For internet growth whatever much it will continue to grow will very sufficient in my opinion an IPv4.2 Internet Protocol architecture with 48 bits. Very enough for the current needs and for every futuristic prediction. A typical IPv4.2 address will look like that :

134.127.0.23.45.1

practically add another 2 groups of 8 bits number making the new IPv4.2 address.

This will be enough for further development of networks without fear that we will have no longer IP addresses.

My opinion regarding physics is that it is used too much mathematics. Physics is of course based on mathematical precision, equations and calculus, but physicists often forget to think in terms of the physics, and not mathematics.
But when quantum mechanics intervene it’s impossible to not think the physics in terms of mathematics, because quantum mechanics it’s all about probability. Concepts are so strange to human daily life that without mathematics you are completely lost. But you also must think conceptual in physics, respecting also mathematical results.

To be able to maintain rhythm with the physics, most theoretical physicists now think in terms of pure analytical results, mathematical analysis and experimental results. It’s in a way natural, but to be able to see really the things you must also conceptualize things. Because otherwise you are lost in equation and theoretical analytical results.

That’s why I think that Large Hadron Colider from CERN will not find Higgs Boson. Because Higgs it’s a concept restraint only to the Standard Model, which regards only the world of particles.
Yes, of course Electroweak Unification is a great step in the evolution of physics, but it’s only the beginning of a new revolution. Things are much much complicated that Standard Model hopes to resolve by finding Higgs Boson at CERN.

To be able to explore the world of particles you must understand first the relationship between theory of relativity and the quantum mechanics.
Things are already very complicated when we are talking of relativity and quantum mechanics, but to pursuit with advance with physics we must unify these two aspects first. Higgs will not at all resolve the problems of relativity, even if could resolve some problems of Standard Model.

In my opinion Standard Model is just a very limited point of view of quantum mechanics that we see today. And Higgs Boson it will not show up, because it doesn’t exist.

We need a more clear view, a more larger view of all the physics that we know today. And the next step is to understand the liaison between general relativity and quantum mechanics.
