They found that for weak oscillations, there was a sharp switch between in phase and antiphase control at the system’s resonant frequency – something that they said can be fully understood using linear systems control theory. For stronger oscillations, the duo discovered a transition region, rich in behaviour, where the motions of the cart and pendulum are not synchronized.
@lucifargundam throw me some CSS and i can possibly add it
@lucifargundam You want cat ears on your profile?
@jeffcliff very strange indeed. Still loading fine for me...
@jeffcliff That is rather strange, its a well known site and doesnt go down often. It is up for me. Might be a problem on your end.
@jeffcliff Huh, the link I sent wasnt to the coastline paradox (though it does link to that paradox as well)
This already exists.
What you are calling "Manhattan distance" is more formally called "Taxicab geometry" and the paradox you are describing is called the "Staircase paradox". It is also sometimes called the "Diagonal paradox"
@robryk indeed, most processes that consume energy tend to.
@freemo I've actually though the same since I was a kid because too many of them dismissed my symptoms which I had googled and found the cause but couldn't confirm until I was old enough to pay for tests they wouldn't give me because "google didn't go to medical school".
@zpartacoos typical :(
@zpartacoos doctors have always been some of the worse, too much power.
i pasted the rules here in a hedgedoc. the document is freely editable for everyone..if you want to make changes or add to it, feel free to ;-)
@freemo Tell me about it. I hate getting in discussions with people who don't understand logic well. It's necessary to try to make society a more reasonable place , but arguing with people who reason backwards (from conclusion first) or from emotion is incredibly frustrating.
@1iceloops123 Like I said, its cool in the sense that it covers every tech for wifi you can imagine, easily has 4x the features of openwrt last I used it
@1iceloops123 I have used openwrt, whatever they have is way more advanced, down to the hardware level too. It can do literally everything.
