Love.
You ignored other questions @A.T. asked. Where is the maths? -

Like.
"makes stuff up" is imprecise. Every token is selected from a probability distribution. Depending on settings, it will select the token... -
What have you or any of us ever done that is truly new and unique? Everything builds on what we know and have learned already.

russ_watters replied to the thread High School Looking for info about the Sombrero Galaxy.Yeah, it's 9 arcmin wide, nearly a third the size of the full moon in the sky. So we'd be able to see it's if it were brighter.

Wikipedia is a good place to start. The page has an overview and some references to follow up on...

russ_watters replied to the thread Undergrad Is energy really conserved?.I like to think of a/the core pursuit in mechanical engineering as a game of "follow the energy". It's very common for your energy to...

If you ignore where energy goes then of course you will think that energy is not conserved.

No. One of the great unifications in physics was the discovery that there is an equivalence between mechanical and thermal energy...
-
OK, and where is energy "destroyed" here (aside of dissipation by friction)?
-
I think this is roughly the apparatus OP has in mind. The two green discs are identical and counter-rotate about the blue axle with...

russ_watters replied to the thread High School Trying to understand wind forces on a door.Yes, that's what I'm saying. And that makes it very difficult to model.

What I believe @russ_watters is getting at is that if the rest of the house is tightly sealed then no wind will enter the front door...

Perhaps there's a hole in your pocket. Where money's involved, that's my usual excuse.

I don't believe there's a prototype. I don't believe this either. Let's see this prototype in action.

That could also mean, that nobody was even able to make sense of what you are talking about.
