This is explained in the video, X seems to have missed it, and maybe others have. Gravity doesn't slow time relative to yourself, it slows it relative to observers in a weaker gravitational field, so you can not freeze your time, unless it's relative to something else. Like in interstellar, they felt time normally, but to others many years went by, that's what actually happens, that isn't fiction, nor is it a theory, it has been experimentally verified.

I know this story quite well so I hope I can help it seem less incomprehensible how ppl can imagine this stuff: I think geometric models of space are natural-for hundreds of years we described positions and momentum’s using coordinates in space. Incorporating time into this picture is also not so unnatural. After all, if you’re tracking time as a parameter in all of your equations it’s very convenient to stick it in as a coordinate, and think of the whole space-time as having its own geometry. On the other hand, studying curved geometries was having a revolution due to Riemann (same guy of the Riemann hypothesis- revolutionizing multiple fields of study this guy) in the field of pure mathematics. Riemann had no gravitational motivation for his work, his advisor, Gauss, was biggest innovator of differential geometry before him though. If you read their papers, none of Gauss nor Riemann’s work on geometry is really anything other than pure math, even if geometry always had physical motivation (geo - earth, metry - measure). They wrote like pure mathematicians who cared about the beauty and power of math and proofs. The fact that not too long after that this math (tweaked slightly, the time dimension is special in GR compared to riemann’s work which was for n-space dimensions for any n) would be useful for Einstein is awesome. Of course you’re right that they had to be incredibly smart to actually figure out all the details and prove it, but the direction of their search has a definite followable logic to it

"i get it, its a black hole from the past!" ICANT

Whoever coded this is one smart guy

xqc at 11:00 poses a very smart question, interestingly. Although he's simply confused by the longevity and thus doesnt understand it keeps growing, this raises the alternative question of "How do small blackholes stop being blackholes?". The answer is based on quantum physics which isnt fully understood but, as something hypothesized, matter splits at a fundamental level when entering a blackhole. Positive and negative energy, if you will. Since quantum physics proposes that all matter, and energy for that 'matter', is simply possibilities of energy on the board of space-time, its proposed that over time 'negative' energy is swallowed by the blackhole at the quantum level and ejects 'positive' energy. These two energies, outside of matter in fact, are generated spontaneously through probability and usually cancel out and cease to exist immediately in most cases. On the surface of a blackhole however, theres a chance the negative energy is swallowed, generating an infinitesimally minute quantity of positive energy. This is called hawking radiation. Its very interesting but complicated theory, and im dumbing it down to a significant degree, and I've probably misunderstood some aspects of it even still. In a dead universe its surmised that all blackholes regardless of their size will collapse into a singular singularity, and over unimaginable eons, slowly release their energy back into the universe as they swallow this 'negative' energy. Now the question is, how would it not just re-swallow that energy back once it gets rid of it? But the truth is, without any obstacles or other energy fields to deal with, all that energy would simple escape at the speed of light outwards from the blackhole at the center until it turns the entire universe into an evenly distributed flat spacial plain with utterly no curvature (mass)

Xqc = "I get it now" chat = Solve for Y then 🤣

you are right, you would have to calculate all of them, but most of them have just a very very small impact, so what people do in general is just account for large bodies, and large energy densities. so for the mass and energy density you basically just need a function of space for all the energy, and doign it approximately is easier than you think, for example we could just use a function that has a blob of energy in one spot spread out a little bit, and then sum a lot of them together until we have the function we want as a function of the location x,y,z,t ^^, then as a function of the location and momentum(which is the movement of that energy) we get a curvature of space a geometry, and that geometry tells you how the mass function you built is going to evolve, that is it in principle, to do it exactly for a given mass distribution might be practically impssible, you are right about that, arbitrary solutions can be arbitrarily difficult to solve, but then we just use numerical methods, instead of solving the equations properly with integrals which is just summing up all the change that happens over time with infinitely small steps, we just use finite steps, we just say in 0.1 seconds the mass is going to jump more or less to this new function of space, and repeat the process as best we can, this is how most simulations are done, without really using the equations at all, but just taking the derrivatives and making a small jump in the right direction, stopping, and doing it again, it is only for relatively simple solutions that we can actually use calculus and the equations to do integrals with steps of size 0, this is very rare.

All the past information travelling at an angle to our trajectory (not parallel) will now start hitting us.

you see the greek letters in the equation man, those are called indecies, they are lables for different variables that belong to different differential equations in a sense. so you have alpha beta and so on and they run from 1 to 4, which gives you different components of the maths. so the geometry is described by relationships between different things, like the lenght in one direction, the change in the lenght as you move in some direction and so on, and there are derrivatives which are just how stuff changes from place to place or time to time associated with all of them. roughly speaking, but the equation seems a lot simpler than it is, so if you look at that thing and confusion sets in, dont worry its a big mess of different equations that describe the relationship between different values at each point in spacetime and ho they change as you move around, then you get expressions for each as a field, that describe each component as a function of where you are and when and so on, it is a whole big mathematical machinery and i would not expect anyone to really just understand the equation without looking at the whole set of equations and understanding the maths used there, which is differential geometry. it is not that hard to understand, but without going for the full understanding you can just think about the metric, which is just a description of what lenghts connect points essentially, how far it is from point to point, which is the small g there, it is just a map of what distances are there in spacetime and it is related to the distribution of stuff, so close to a big mass distances are warped so for example you can imagine a piece of paper that is flat, it has euclidian distances everywhere within the paper, which just means that it can be layed out flat, triangles always sum to 180 degrees for their angles and so on, but imagine that you pick a point on the paper and you just make the distances longer around that point, you stretch the lenghts inside the paper there, then the paper would have to buldge out from that point, and would no longer be flat, this kind of difference in distances is the same kind of effect going on around masses in general relativity, although in a very spesific way and in 4 dimensions.. pretty cool stuff, but not that easy to understand in detail, mostly just a lot of mathematics to learn, the concepts are not that bad.
