In this chapter, it will be shown how science plays a important role in the creation of various objects like software, this universe, mass, atoms, energy and even yourself! This chapter also shows why knowledge of science is very important before you start using the products of science.
The golden rule is - "You MUST not use a product without understanding how it is created!!" This rule applies to everything - database sytems, computer system, operating system, this universe and even your own human body! It means that you should have complete source code and information about the system. It is important to understand how human body and atoms inside human body works since humans are creating PostgreSQL, MS Windows95 etc..
Creation is a very important step. Persons who are using the objects of science must know how it is created. This applies to even computer systems and PostgreSQL. A majority of people do not have knowledge of science and hence do not know how systems like MS Windows NT/95, Oracle, human body and this universe are created. A vast majority of people do not know what made the universe and MS Windows 95/NT and what is inside it. Complex systems are built from very simple basic building blocks like - millions of universes are created, each universe in turn has millions of super-clusters, each super-cluster has millions of galaxies, each galaxy has millions of stars, some stars system have many planets, each planet in turn is made up billions of atoms.(In the history of this world, only one universe was created by a man in ancient India eons ago, but no other case had been reported in the modern history. Creating a universe is a much more advanced technology and is more advanced than the atomic bomb which was dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki causing horrible destruction). Modern nuclear weapons are so tiny and powerful that if such a single nuclear bomb is dropped then it can completely vaporise the planet earth! But there are also weapons which will completely NULLIFY and NEUTRALISE all the nuclear weapons in the world!! Total variety of weapons are infinity!. Software like MS Windows 95 is created simply by "C" and assembler language programs which simply uses 1 and 0 and universes like ours are created simply by dashing TWO dissimilar but proper of combination of tiny atomic particles of other dimensions. A human body is created by dashing two dissimilar but proper combination of tiny cells!! Humans inherited the properties of this universe. The universe you are currently living in was NOT there - all the atoms inside the universe was not there and not even TIME was existing!! Baby universe was born during big bang and started expanding and kept growing. Even today the universe is still expanding!! A person from another universe by name 'Brahma' created this universe you are currently living in. It is indeed possible for man to create a new universe. Total number of universes that can be created is INFINITY and similarly total number of operating systems that can be created is also infinity!! Infinite number universes and infinite variety of multi-dimensional atoms collapse down into few primary-dimensional-universe.
The laws of science and statistics favour the open-source code system like PostgreSQL and Linux. As the internet speed is increasing everyday, and internet is becoming more and MORE reliable, the open-source code system will gain very rapid momentum. And, if rules of statistics and laws of physics are correct, awareness of science grows and when IGNORANT people start learning science then the closed source-code systems will eventually vanish from this planet.
Developing a project like PostgreSQL requires resources like energy and time, hence PostgreSQL is a product of energy and time. Since energy and time can be explained only by science, there is a direct co-relation between physics and software projects like PostgreSQL, Linux. Laws of science (Physics) applies everywhere and at all the times, to anything that you do, even while you are developing the software projects.
Physics is in action even while you are talking (sound waves), walking (friction between ground and your feet), reading a book or writing software. Every science in this world has a deep root in mathematics, including PostgreSQL. PostgreSQL uses 'Modern Algebra' which is a tiny branch of mathematics. Modern algebra deals with 'Set Theory', 'Relational Algebra', science of Groups, Rings, Collections, Sets, Unions, Intersections, Exclusions, Domains, Lists, etc...
The software like PostgreSQL is existing today because of the energy and time. And mass and energy are ONE and the SAME entity. The fact that mass and energy are same was unknown to people 100 years ago! And even today it is unknown to world population that internet is the largest software "power house" and the largest "software company" in the world!
Cells in the human brains consume energy while processing (creating software), by converting the chemical energy from food into electrical and heat energy. Even while you are reading this paragraph, the cells in your brain are burning out the fuel and are using tiny amounts of energy. All of these implies that human brain is a thermodynamic heat engine. Because human brain is a thermodynamic engine, the laws of thermodynamics applies to brain and hence thermodynamics has indirect effects on software like PostgreSQL.
There can be infinite number of colors, computer langauages, computer chip designs and theories but there CANNOT be ONE SINGLE PERFECT color, computer language, design or system! What you can have is only a NEAR PERFECT color(wavelength), system, database, or theory! Nature is like a KALIEDOSCOPE - there are infinite number of dimensions, infinite variety particles of other dimensions but they all combine into very few primary dimensions and vice-versa.
By combining the energies of millions of people around the world via internet it is possible to achieve a NEAR PERFECT system (including a database software system). Individually, the energy of each person will be minute, but by networking a large number of people, the total energy will be huge which can be focused on a project to generate a near perfect system.
The energy is measured in Joules, kiloJoules or kilograms of mass, and time is measured in seconds or hours. And power is energy divided by time and is measured in Watts or kiloWatts .
Energy of each person = y Joules
or in terms of mass
Energy of each person = y grams
The conversion factor between mass and energy is E = m * c * c
where 'c' is the speed of light and 'm' is the mass.
Time = 8 hours (This is constant since each person has only 8 hours a day)
Power = Energy / Time
= (y / (8 * 60 * 60) ) Watts
Total Power of the world = n * (y / (8 * 60 * 60) ) Watts
where n = number of persons working on the project.
It is very clear that internet can network a vast number of people, which implies internet has a lot of energy and time which can produce much higher quality software products in much shorter time as compared to commercial companies. Even very big companies like Microsoft and IBM cannot overpower and overrule the laws of Physics but will eventually SURRENDER UNTO laws of science!
Conclusion is - because of laws of science, 'open source code' system like PostgreSQL, Linux will prevail and will be always much better than 'closed source code' system and it is possible to prove this statement scientifically. Man should not waste time creating too many duplicate software products.
