I'm not sure that anyone is looking at this thread anymore, but I'm posting anyway. I've got my (almost) final two cents to put in. After looking...
I mentioned fractals made with this formula earlier. I've put together a small web page talking about my experiments at...
The subject line was a bit off, true... v=d/t is a Newtonian concept. The whole idea of light's velocity being constant is part of why Einstein's...
I just put together a TI-83+ program that uses the mapping z=>z^z on the complex plane to find escapist points. Quite an interesting shape came out....
The pilot of the SSS Liar was bleary-eyed. He had missed quite a lot during the week and a half that he had been playing Halo, but Regional Champs...
"And now, for a DEADLY barrage of NEGATIVE SCRATCHES!!!!" One string-suspended flying saucer then fires at the other. Asimov once said that the...
This sounds more like a "Robots and Empire" movie than an "I, Robot" movie. From the reviews I've read, the movie has next to nothing to do with...
Hydrogen is a fledgling technology. It will have to fight for its market share. It may be the fuel of the far future, but the near future...
It might work--with a million-gauss electromagnet. Until you can tote around a manipulable Sun to increase your internal combustion engine...
"freefall" = no force acting on you but gravity This means that you MUST be accelerating down at 9.8m/s/s to be in "freefall." That's what the...
A device (I think called the Bioreactor) can be used to simulate microbe growth and behavior in near-weightless environments. I read about it in the...
The IR detectors that came with the US F.I.R.S.T. kit were pretty simple. You might look on http://www.firstwiki.org/index.php/Infrared_sensor for...
Wow. I am amazed. My head feels stretched. Yes--do continue.
Observation-wise...oh, confound it...I have to go dig up a Discover magazine R&D blurb to answer that...anyhow, a professor managed to predictably...
I think that to integrate something involving x^x you have to have it "well formed" (I think that that is the term), in other words you have to...
The truth came out a little while after the President resigned, so the SSS Liar's efforts merely deepened the developing schism amongst the...
The Capital, right after the Scerlag acceptance speech The Scerlag Vice Admiral bent down, signed the document, and then picked it up to show to...
OK, graduate math is definitely on my agenda then...:D
Okay...wow...cool...thanks! Complex math is cool...:D P.s. Is there a name for functions related to x^x?
It seems to me that, so long as information isn't tied to energy or mass, that information's speed has no limit. It's the untying that's hard.
