    High School Ant on a stretchy rope puzzle

    It reminds me of the horizontal escalators in airports. Some people stand still while others continue walking but it feels like running. I’ll have to consider my answer in light of these new insights. Thank you all for showing me error of my ways.

    Help me build my server with a laptop that has a broken screen

    What ive read is that modern distros will have external monitor enabled by default. Plug it in and away you go. Years ago when faced with broken windows system, Ive used Knoppix to recover files and config info. Now ive learned that professionals tend to use SystemRescue so perhaps that will...

    But does it matter, the ant is still moving away from the destination.

    Introduction to me

    Welcome to PF! Please take some time to read our site's global guidelines (see link below). To learn Physics means to learn the math that goes with it. Perhaps Khan Academy can help get you started in both subjects. Take care, Jedi

    Help me build my server with a laptop that has a broken screen

    You may have compounded your problem with the ssd flash. Perhaps you could remove the ssd and plug a usb stick with linux on it. If it boots then maybe an external monitor would work. The only other idea is to install a linux with telnet configured si that even if the screen is shot you can...

    High School Ant on a stretchy rope puzzle

    I would say no. If you think of the end of the rope as the destination then for every second forward the ant is (1km - 1cm) further away. Basically, the ant is effectively traveling away from the end of rope destination.

    Help me build my server with a laptop that has a broken screen

    Why not get a Raspberry Pi to host your website? Its cheaper, simpler and probably of comparable performance.

    High School The wisdom of betting on a losing gamble

    Knowing how real offices work, you might win the lottery, but since you're gone, there's no way to collect. I had a friend at IBM Research who wasn't well-liked by his team. He was a young guy with a naive personality, maybe autistic, who may have stepped on his teammates' egos. It was IBM...

    Is This Music AI?

    There might be a translation service you could post it to that could translate it to english. ChatGPT might be able as well. My grandson speaks but its very difficult to understand what he’s saying. I had Chatgpt microphone open and it transcribed what he said. I’m not sure its a repeatable...

    Is This Music AI?

    Is it live or is it memories or is it AI? I’m going with AI. There's a clear pattern to the music making it feel a bit cookie cutter. Starts with a catchy tune and then brings in the percussion beats. It seems that the percussion beats enter n seconds into the song, the same n seconds for...

    High School Potato paradox

    I was made aware of this by my doctor when we talked about whole milk vs 2% milk. Whole milk is made mostly of water, its ingredients are what determines its caloric content. Marketing makes the consumer believe that 2% milk has only 2% fat ss compered to whole milk. But the reality is 2%...
