We don't know the infintismal or infinite ends of the electromagnetic spectrum. If the universe has boundaries, then surely there is a single standing wave that traverses it i.e. wavelength = 1

There are the 3 considered outcomes for the universe - continued expansion, reaching a static astrophysical plane or gravitational collapse. No matter the outcome, if there is a standing wave the length (why would you have 1.5 times or anything other than 1 !?) Then under the expansion, statis and contraction scenarios, only one of these would ever reach stasis, all other scenarios have a standing wave in flux.

In ATR FTIR (attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy) evanescent waves penetrate outside the medium to complete the Quantisation rule. Would the same occur if we did try produce a 1.2 times wave?

"Zoning and planning regulations that limit the supply of new housing increase the price of housing. For instance, Kendall and Tulip (2018) estimate the impact of zoning on housing prices and find that “as of 2016, zoning raised detached house prices 73 per cent above marginal costs in Sydney, 69 per cent in Melbourne, 42 per cent in Brisbane and 54 per cent in Perth”

An open secret. So, if we progressively change zoning, then a large part of the synthetic component evaporates? Apartments in NSW are a joke with over 53% needing remediation. So the planning laws don't work to create good housing. What are they really for?

Housing, we all know

It seems a good time to remember, in amongst the rhetoric of election campaigns that all parties will keep house prices where they are.

The way back to affordability is 10-20 years of marginal house price growth, to enable housing to come into line with long term trends. Fluctuations that are radical pose radical problems for politics. So they opt for the sustained. This is what I think Australia's (and others) future housing comes down to the (continued) debasement of currency through broad (stealth) taxation.

What a game.

I suspect voting preferences will swing around the late 30s quite bad :-/
